I guarantee a message from Houdini on Halloween

Postby JohnCox » October 29th, 2016, 9:10 pm

This is something I've held back for a special occasion, and what could be more special than the 90th anniversary of Houdini's death! Some of you may know the story of the message code arranged between Houdini and magician William J. Hilliar. Today on my blog I tell the backstory of the code (linked below). Then on Halloween at 1:26, I will reveal the secret code itself. Who needs seances? I guarantee a message from Houdini!

About as close as we'll ever get to a message from Harry.
