The Sacred Riana is very scary.

The Sacred Riana

The Sacred Riana, born Marie Antoinette Riana Graharani on July 13, 1992, is an Indonesian magician and illusionist known for her unique and eerie performances.

She gained recognition as a contestant on Deddy Corbuzier’s magic competition show, The Next Mentalist, where she was the runner-up.

In 2017, she won the second season of Asia’s Got Talent.
Riana also participated in America’s Got Talent in 2018, reaching the quarterfinals.

Riana’s performances often feature horror-themed illusions and incorporate props like haunted dollhouses and levitation tricks.
Her signature head twitch and creepy doll are notable elements of her act.
She has performed in various live shows across Asia, including “The Sacred Riana Conjuring Live in Kuala Lumpur” and “The Sacred Riana Conjuring Live in Singapore”.

In addition to her live performances, Riana has starred in films such as “The Sacred Riana: Beginning” and “The Sacred Riana 2: Bloody Mary”.

She continues to captivate audiences with her magic and has been featured in multiple YouTube compilations showcasing her performances.

She is active on social media, where she shares updates about her performances and personal thoughts, such as her feelings about representing Indonesia.

Her act won Asia’s Got Talent 2017

The Sacred Riana, from Indonesia, brings horror to stage magic!

She appears to the audience to be engaging in actual magic, always in character, with her long hair on one side.

This performance is brilliantly done. I must give credit to the ghouls and zombies on the stage… they were brilliantly performed.

The music and the whole ambience created could give you a problem if you have a weak heart. In another setting, this could give you a heck of a fright… especially with the resurgence of zombie horror films.

Beware …. the Sacred Riana may be near you one day soon!!!

Here is her winning performance from the Finale.

You can find more videos of her (and the demons) on youtube.

In fact, let me put some more right here:

The way she twitches her hand, the head twitches, the music… also brilliant.

Here she gives new meaning to selecting audience volunteers.

She looks at all the details… see even the “spooky” curls along the bottom of the reveal writing. Love it.

  1. I love the Sacred Riana and can’t believe she was cut from AGT; she has one of the most unique performances that I have ever seen.
    Is it possible to get an Autograph picture from her.
