If you're interested in more about the world's greatest magician, consider stopping in at the Houdini Museum in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the Magic Castle, a nightclub for fans and magicians in Los Angeles, and the House of Houdini, which is located at the Diz Square in the Buddha Castle in Budapest, Hungary. The Houdini Museum of New York at Fantasma Magic in Manhattan and at the historic castle in Appleton, Wisconsin. Houdini died in Detroit, where he was performing at the Garrick Theatre

How cool and almost creepy that this man died on October 31. That's crazy. But then again, is it really crazy, though? Because I think maybe we as I don't know, people tend to put more stock into what October 31 stands for. And it was maybe to the universe, just say, the day of his death. That's it. I won't even say coincidence, but thank you for sharing this fact

Thank you so much for the invite. I found this, well, very interesting. I did not know that about Harry houdini found it very fascinating, and I want to know more. I just know him for his magic and some of the old clips I've seen. But when you you told this story, I was very intrigued and interested, and now I want to know more. It piqued my curiosity. So thank you so much. I did not know that he passed away on Halloween

Oh, I love this, and I love your focus. And, you know, we call it paranormal because we don't understand it. And I actually wanted to ask you about that because urban legends and digging into archives and historical memoirs that can slide into historical fiction, how do you do research? And is it always around the paranormal and that gives us license to wonder? Or are you more inclined to really look at the source material and say, is this real or is not real?

Hi. Thanks for your question and for listening. I actually start by reading almost everything I can find. And if some story interests me and I know there's something unusual about it, I will first look to see if there's anything that can actually explain what's happening happened. In other words, I'll have one coming up about haunted houses, houses that have ghosts. Well, first of all, and see if there is something that's causing the house to make a certain noise or something

Thank you for your comments and compliments. It means a lot to hear from people, to be able to communicate things that I have learned and understood and researched and to be able to share them with people and specifically with you and as well as others. And I do appreciate your comments and thoughts. So thank you. Thank you so very much. Bye

Thank you for your comments. There are some additional programs I'll be doing later on with Houdini, as there are other areas of his life that are absolutely incredible and fascinating that unless you actually have done any amount of research on them, you'll probably be surprised. I don't want to give it away because it is a very interesting, interesting part of his life that I think will be surprising
