Houdini vs. Spiritualism
In this episode, I am going to explore the second half of
Harry Houdini’s life mission. Utilizing his knowledge of illusion and magic,
Harry Houdini made it his personal agenda to expose the fakes, frauds and charlatans
of the American spiritualism movement of the early 1900’s.
