THE MAN FROM BEYOND
HOUDINI AMONG THE SPIRITS
In the early twentieth century, magician and escape artist Harry Houdini was one of the most famous men in the world. He was known for cheating death with his dangerous stunts and seemingly impossible escapes, but privately, he was driven by the need to contact the spirit of his late mother. Spiritualism -- a movement that began decades earlier as a means for the dead to speak to the living -- was all the rage, and Houdini sought out mediums who he hoped would allow him to talk to her one last time. He had always believed in the possibility of communicating with the dead and even had a pact with his wife, friends, and fellow magicians that if he died first, he would contact them, if possible. But when Houdini began visiting spirit mediums and found one fraud after another, he began seeking revenge.
Author Troy Taylor presents the thrilling story of Houdini and his crusade to destroy Spiritualism - even though he never abandoned the idea that communicating with the dead was possible. Discover his brushes with the spirit world, his battle with one of America's most famous mediums, and the seances started by his wife to reach him in the beyond.
