LOGAN, Utah – Is there a Hogwarts wizard in the house?

A hypnotist's entertainment show at Logan High School ended quickly when some girls felt nauseated and short of breath. A teenager was taken to a hospital, checked and released.

"It's a hypnotist we've used before — same jokes, same timing and everything," said Mike Monson, support-services director at Logan City School District. "For some particular reason, and he's not sure, a couple girls started to hyperventilate."

There were hundreds of people at the show last Thursday, which was part of the school's homecoming activities and a fundraiser for the drill team.

Hypnosis is an altered state that allows a person's mind to wrap around a thought or desire. The hypnotist, Dale Bowman, believes some students may have faked their symptoms. The show ended long before intermission.

"Stuff like this gives hypnosis a bad name," said Bowman, 40, who manages a bus depot in Ogden. "I basically do the same thing all the time. I have them imagine a staircase and count backwards from 10 to one."

The school's principal, Patricia Hansen, said Bowman did a good job trying to get "people back to their normal state of mind."

There will be no show in 2008.

"We'll be looking for a few more car washes," she said of ways to raise money.
