A magician known for creating illusions has vanished, with police and his family holding serious concerns for his welfare after his car and caravan were found abandoned days later.

Daniel Hidden, 26, was last seen leaving an address on Chelsea Av at Broadbeach, Gold Coast, about 3am on 14 June in a silver Hyundai Santa Fe, Queensland registration 672LI3, towing a Galaxy caravan.

His phone is understood to have been switched off shortly afterwards.

Police located Hidden’s silver Hyundai Santa Fe and Galaxy caravan at a car park on Currumbin Creek Rd in Currumbin Valley about 3pm on Tuesday.

Family friends initially suggested he may have been heading towards the Springbrook area before his vehicle was found in nearby Currumbin Valley.

His disappearance is considered out of character and police said both investigators and his family have serious concerns for his welfare.

Hidden is well known in southeast Queensland’s entertainment scene as a mentalist and deception artist, performing interactive mind-reading and illusion shows across the east coast.

Hidden’s website currently displays the chilling message: “Transformation requires disappearance”.

It is unclear when the message appeared, and there is no indication it is connected to his disappearance.

Attempts by 7NEWS.com.au to contact him were unsuccessful, with calls to his mobile phone diverting to a full voicemail inbox.

In an online appeal, family friend Emma Lane said Hidden had left home in the early hours of Sunday, 14 June, towing his caravan and had not been heard from since

“(His) phone has been off since 6am Sunday morning,” she wrote, later updating the post to say: “Thanks to this post, the police have located the vehicles. But not my friend’s son.”

Hidden is described as being about 180cm tall with an average build and olive complexion.

He has long black hair, a black beard and brown eyes and was last seen wearing a maroon-coloured top and black cargo pants.

Police said investigations are ontinuing and are urging anyone with information about his whereabouts to contact Policelink.
