Everyone has heard about the great Harry Houdini and how he sadly perished during an escape act, but what if I told you that he might still be here? Houdini was always known for his escape tricks and even included the police occasionally. Although many still wonder; what happened that Halloween night?

As a young man, Houdini became obsessed with spirits and spiritual phenomenas. Which, as he grew older, stayed with him. He himself had seen many “spirits” in other magic shows, but knew they were all fake. Soon he decided that he would cross the line between our world and the next.

It happened on Halloween of 1926 while Houdini was practicing a dangerous trick with his brother Flash. Suddenly a chain broke and Harry held on for dear life. After a few hours, Harry told his brother that he was done and gave him special directions. Then he let go and died.

Now every Halloween the family of Houdini holds a séance with the handcuffs used by Harry, hoping he will make contact by opening the cuffs.
