Sacred Riana, born Marie Antoinette Riana Graharani on July 13, 1992, in Indonesia, is an acclaimed Indonesian magician and illusionist. She is the daughter of Chrisiandy Yuniarto. Riana received her early education at St. Ursula Catholic School and later pursued her higher studies at the University of Bunda Mulia. Her fascination with magic and illusion began in childhood, setting the stage for her future career in the world of performance illusions.
Riana first gained attention on the Indonesian television show The Next Mentalist, where she finished as the runner-up in its debut season. Her breakthrough came when she competed in and won the second season of Asia's Got Talent in 2017, captivating audiences across the continent with her unique horror-themed act. She later participated in America’s Got Talent Season 13, where she reached the quarterfinals and further expanded her international following.
Sacred Riana is widely recognized for her haunting stage presence inspired by popular horror film characters. Her appearance echoes that of Sadako from the Japanese horror film The Ring, with long dark hair obscuring her face, and an unsettling, unblinking expression. She frequently incorporates a porcelain doll into her act, reminiscent of the infamous Annabelle doll from The Conjuring film series. Her physical performance—marked by jerky head movements, twitchy hands, and asymmetrical posture—adds an eerie realism that heightens the illusion of supernatural influence.
Riana’s unique blend of illusion and horror has earned her widespread attention on digital platforms. Videos of her performances have amassed over 70 million combined views on Facebook and YouTube, making her a viral sensation in the magic and performance art communities. The combination of her distinct persona and theatrical presentation has solidified her status as one of the most recognizable illusionists from Indonesia.
