I came up with the term mindfreak because I didnt like the word magician. I felt like I wanted to coin a term that would be basically the reaction to my art. It would be a mindfreak and so thats why I came up with that. But, many people say Im really a student of humanity and psychology. -Criss Angel Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos (born December 19, 1967),better known by the stage name Criss Angel, is an American magician and illusionist.
