Abaracadabra! Do you believe in magic? You will after this!

Facts:

The term "abracadabra" was written in masks to protect people from the Black Plague.

The performer who created the specific "magician look" was Herman the Great. After him, people always expected to see magicians with a top hat, goatee, and a tailcoat.
