The Wizard discusses Halloween, H.G. Wells, and an amazing Magician!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What is it about October 31st? This piece roams from Luther's hammer on a church door to the end of the Battle of Britain, from Houdini's final curtain to the Celtic bonfires of Samhain. It traces how Halloween began as an ancient threshold between worlds and became the world's biggest fancy-dress party. Along the way we glimpse Mexican marigolds, Austrian bread for ghosts, Japanese lanterns, and a universal truth: that once a year, humans everywhere like to dance with the dark and laugh at their fears. It's funny, atmospheric, and full of surprises – a story of thresholds, history, and a date that refuses to stay quiet.

It's National Magic Week, as designated by the Society of American Magicians. It also means it's that time of the year to chat with the Houdini expert, John Cox. He has been blogging daily for years about all things Houdini. So, on the eve of the 99th anniversary of Houdini's death, it seems appropriate to check in with John to see what's new with Houdini. During our chat, he surprises us with several revelations that I didn't know, and perhaps might be new to you, too. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize John's biggest and his proudest accomplishment over this past year has been the publication of his book, “Escaping Obscurity” available from Mike Caveney's “Magic Words” website. He talks about this book in our chat this week, plus he also reveals that the ending to the Tony Curtis movie of “Houdini” did not end with him dying in the water torture cell! This and other revelations are discussed in this week's episode. Download this podcast in an MP3 file by Clicking Here and then right click to save the file.

Pablo Puyol, actor y cantante malagueño, nos presenta Houdini, un musical mágico en el Teatro Calderón de Madrid. Puyol interpreta a Houdini. El espectáculo alterna música con más de 20 números de ilusionismo. Está escrito y dirigido por Federico Bellone e inspirado en el libro El hombre imposible. Se estrena en Madrid antes que en Broadway. 'Houdini, un musical mágico' llega al Teatro Calderón con ilusiones espectaculares El actor ha confesado que "es el reto más difícil que he realizado, estoy muy contento con el resultado de la obra. Lo que hago encima del escenario es algo muy difícil de realizado. Pensaba que no iba a poder interpretar este papel por la complejidad que tiene”. Pablo Puyol ha añadido que “estaremos hasta febrero en el Teatro Calderón, aunque nuestra idea es quedarnos más tiempo. La gente que venga a ver “Houdini. Un musical mágico” va a presenciar un espectáculo como no hay otro en Madrid. La gente va a disfrutar mucho durante todo el espectáculo”.

From the Victorian terror of being buried alive to the rise of spiritualist séances, haunted science experiments, and Houdini's crusade against fake mediums, this episode digs into the true and truly bizarre history behind our fascination with the dead. Happy Halloween!

A great 2 hour conversation with Houdini Swap and a 1 hour THORChain conversation thereafter!

While attending the recent Magistrorum Conference in Dallas, I was surprised to see and hear from a variety of entertainers I had never met, seen, nor (in most cases) even heard of before. It was refreshing to see such robust and exciting talent. One such person who made an impression on me was Susan Gerbic. A long time skeptic (and regular contributor to the Skeptical Inquirer), Susan has been dispelling myths about psychics, spiritualists, and others who “suck the life and money” out of unsuspecting “believers.” Her late partner, Mark Edwards coined the term “Grief Vampires” for those who prey on the grief of others and promise the hope of talking with their dead loved ones from beyond the grave…for the right price.Susan busts psychics much like Houdini did in his day which was part of his three pronged act in his later years: magic, escapes, and spiritualism exposes. She does it using today's social media and speaker platforms across the country. Not only does she have a rich background in the skeptic community, she is also known for her contributions to Wikipedia. In 2010, Gerbic founded "Guerrilla Skepticism on Wikipedia" (GSoW), a group of editors who create and edit Wikipedia articles that reflect scientific skepticism. Among her many awards, she has received the "James Randi Award for Skepticism in the Public Interest" at The Amaz!ng Meeting 2013. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize Having never met nor knowing anything about Susan Gerbic before we sat down to chat, we talked first about our common interests and friends in the community, like Banachek and the Amazing Randi. We quickly connected then I turned on the microphones and the results are obvious in our warm conversation as I seek to explore more about what Susan does. Since this is the “Month of Boo,” I felt it appropriate to celebrate the life of Houdini and his work on busting spiritualism by introducing you to this dynamic woman who is following in those big footsteps.

Charlie's books on Amazon USA:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJ7HFMYZ?... "An epic story about a Liverpool gangster with old-school gentleman values." Shaun Attwood, true crime author/YouTuber Charlie Seiga was one of the most dangerous faces of the criminal underworld. There were many unsolved crimes which were swift, brutal and brilliantly organised. The victims—liberty takers and sadists—were all vicious hard b##tards. He was also one of the most successful villains of his time. Police believed that he was the brains behind major firms involved in robberies on banks, security vans, lorry hijacking, safe breaking and many other serious crimes. He lost track of the times he was arrested and questioned about various jobs, but he always had an alibi—a witness to say he wasn't guilty of the crime. He was the Houdini of the criminal underworld. His story is a shocking tale; but it is also a story about one man's fight against the scum who break his deadly code of honour. He hates women b##ters and child m##sters. His presence was a constant challenge to the low life that preyed on those who could not defend themselves. It is an incredible autobiography of one of the most notorious figures in the history of British crime.

Marc has provided “color” at the past few FISM conferences as well as a few other subsequent magic conventions.

Harry Houdini was the world's greatest escape artist and at the height of his powers was one of the world's most famous people. His unearthly ability to escape any prison and to break free of any bondage was matched only by his aggressive self-promotion. Anyone who tried to get in his way, rewrite his story, steal his thunder or question his abilities would find themselves in his crosshairs. When the burgeoning Spiritualist movement tried to make a fool of Houdini, he began a crusade that would last the rest of his life. And when his life was over, the question Houdini left the world was: could he make the greatest escape in history? This episode was originally published on October 24, 2024.

Tony Hassini is well into his 80's and has earned a time to look back at his illustrious career and all that he has done for entertainment. In the 1970's he developed “The Magic of Burger King” which was a nationwide campaign coupling their advertising with real life characters. But before that, in 1968, Tony formed the International Magicians Society (IMS) which developed into the world's largest magic organization that today presents the Merlin Award to deserving magicians around the world at special, high class award ceremonies. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize This conversation was recorded using Zoom prior to the annual Merlin Awards banquet that typically takes place in Las Vegas on the night following MAGIC Live! We first talk about Tony's involvement with creating and developing the Marvelous Magical Burger King ad campaign in the 1970's. During that time, he met Ray Croc, founder of McDonald's, who gave him some good advice. But before the campaign was adopted, Tony created the IMS which, according to the Guinness World Book of Records, is the largest magic organization in the world.

Tim Harford is the host of the podcast Cautionary Tales which recently put out a series on the most famous magician of all time, Harry Houdini. For this episode, Sarah Marshall of You're Wrong About joins me as co-host to discuss with Tim the Victorian religion-turned-public spectacle known as Spiritualism, the wonderfully gullible Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creative and comical exposing of fraud mediums, the unknowable mysteries of the afterlife, and showman-turned-skeptic Harry Houdini.

Welcome back to another episode of Denim Wrapped Nightmares, where Berly and LA tackle Supernatural Season 8, Episode 12: "As Time Goes By" - and this one's a real family reunion!What Went Down:The episode kicks off in 1958 with a dapper gentleman in a trench coat saying goodbye to his sleeping son. This mystery man heads to what looks like a secret society meeting, only to find demon Abaddon (possessing the lovely Josie) murdering everyone in sight. Armed with a mysterious box and some blood magic, he creates a portal to escape... and crashes right through Sam and Dean's motel closet in 2013! Plot twist: it's Henry Winchester - John's dad and the boys' grandfather they never knew existed.The Big Reveals:Henry Winchester is alive! Well, he was. John's father didn't abandon his family - he time-traveled to protect a supernatural artifactMen of Letters exist! Think Hogwarts library meets Monster Hunters Anonymous - they're the brains to hunters' brawnAbaddon is terrifying - A Knight of Hell handpicked by Lucifer himself, and she's got style (love that devil-themed t-shirt theft)That box is important - Contains the key to every supernatural object, scroll, and spell ever collected. Talk about your ultimate supernatural storage unit!The Family Drama:Henry learns his "legacy" grandkids are just lowly hunters (the horror!), while Dean gets to process having yet another family member who prioritized "the greater good" over being there for their kid. The apple doesn't fall far from the Winchester tree of abandonment issues.The final showdown features Henry getting gutted (not in the fun way), but managing to trap Abaddon with a devil's trap carved into a bullet before Dean decapitates her. Henry dies, but not before telling the boys he's proud of the men John raised.Memorable Moments:Henry's Houdini handcuff trick that had everyone confusedThe "Mayans were wrong" joke about 2013Dean checking out the comic book store clerk (memorable enough that Abaddon noticed)Henry's magical sleeping powder that worked VERY well on the shop ownerThe coordinates to the "safest place on earth" - next stop on the Winchester world tour!Gore Counter:Relatively tame episode - some bleeding eyes, throat slitting, and Henry's stomach situation, but nothing too splooge-worthy for our hosts' official count.The Setup:The boys now have coordinates to a supernatural safe house that supposedly contains every magical artifact ever collected. Will this be their supernatural Costco? Can they finally help Kevin with those pesky demon tablets? And will they ever call Castiel for backup in these life-or-death situations?The hosts loved Henry's character, Abaddon's fabulous villainy, and the family legacy revelations. A solid episode that adds new layers to Winchester family history while setting up future adventures!"One of you must know John Winchester." "Tell you what, when one of us falls out of your closet, then you can ask the questions."Sources:https://supernatural.fandom.com/wiki/As_Time_Goes_By https://www.astronomy.com/science/what-are-wormholes-an-astrophysicist-explains-these-shortcuts-tSend us your review!Support the showTHANK YOU FOR LISTENING!Please rate and review Denim-Wrapped Nightmares wherever you get your podcasts!

The Pirates dropped a heartbreaker in Baltimore, losing on a crew chief review in extra innings. Jim and Tyler break it all down on tonight's North Shore Nine Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros. We get into the Pirates' brutal offensive struggles (just 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position), the lack of power throughout the lineup, and how this continues to define their season. But it wasn't all bad—Mike Burrows looked sharp, Braxton Ashcraft showed why he's one of the most exciting young arms in the system, and Isaac Mattson turned in a Houdini act against his former team. Kyle Nicolas also extended his scoreless streak, showing flashes of being a real bullpen weapon. The guys also reflect on what another losing season means for this franchise and why the offensive woes feel so unsustainable moving forward.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What if the greatest performers in history never really left the stage? At Belleville, Illinois' Haunted Lincoln Theater, some say that's exactly what's happening. Once a glittering landmark for vaudeville and stage magic, the Lincoln Theater hosted legends like Harry Houdini, Ginger Rogers, and The Marx Brothers. But long after the final curtain call, something strange began to happen. Staff and visitors alike began to report eerie sounds, phantom footsteps, cold spots—and full apparitions of long-dead performers. And then came the EVP. A voice, clear and chilling, captured saying just two words: “Time for magic.” Many believe it was Houdini himself, still performing decades after death. In this haunting episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with renowned paranormal investigator Dale Kaczmarek, who has explored the Lincoln Theater's paranormal activity in depth. He shares real accounts, chilling recordings, and the unnerving energy that still clings to the theater's historic walls. This isn't just another haunted location—it's a living, breathing performance space where the past refuses to take a bow. Dale discusses his encounters with intelligent hauntings, residual energy, and the possibility that the spiritual echo of Houdini still commands attention from beyond the grave. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, the haunted Lincoln Theater will make you question what it means for a soul to leave the stage… or stay behind, waiting for the lights to rise. Is it history? Or is it still happening? Find out in this spine-tingling exploration of one of America's most haunted theaters. This is Part Two of our conversation.

Sho Alli and Nick Ashbourne break down the Blue Jays' 8-4 win over the Brewers to salvage the series finale in Toronto.

Who is in the circle of trust after Louis Varland and Seranthony Domínguez looked good today? They discuss the offence coming up big, including great days for Nathan Lukes, Myles Straw, and George Springer, and also discuss the waiver pickup of Isiah Kiner-Falefa before the game. Plus, with rosters expanding tomorrow, they get into the cases for relievers such as Braydon Fisher, Mason Fluharty, Lazaro Estrada, and Adam Macko potentially being called up at one point or another. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

CLICK HERE! To send us a message! Ask us a Question or just let us know what you think!The mystery of what happened to President Kennedy's body after his assassination stands as one of the most disturbing chapters in American history. In this riveting conclusion to our JFK series, historian Jack Stanley unravels the ghoulish and bewildering events surrounding Kennedy's autopsy that suggest a sophisticated cover-up of the truth.Stanley meticulously details how Kennedy's body apparently traveled in two different caskets—the bronze casket seen by the public and a shipping casket that arrived at Bethesda Naval Hospital via helicopter. Drawing on decades of research and newly released documents, he explains how the autopsy itself was compromised from the start, with evidence suggesting the body was altered before formal procedures began to support the official narrative of shots fired only from behind.The infamous "magic bullet" theory comes under particular scrutiny as Stanley demonstrates its physical impossibility. "Houdini couldn't have done this better," he notes of the bullet that supposedly changed direction multiple times while causing seven wounds between two men. Even more disturbing is his compelling case that Lee Harvey Oswald never fired a shot, but was instead set up as a "patsy" who was conveniently silenced before trial.Perhaps most chilling is the fate of Kennedy's brain and other crucial evidence that mysteriously disappeared, likely dropped into the North Atlantic inside the bronze casket on Robert Kennedy's orders—a final act of protection by a brother determined to preserve JFK's legacy.Stanley connects the assassination to Kennedy's peace initiatives that threatened the military-industrial complex, including his American University speech that Khrushchev had printed in Pravda and the subsequent nuclear test ban treaty. These represented a dramatic shift in Cold War relations that ended abruptly with his death.Ready to dive deeper into history's greatest mysteries?

They tried to impeach Trump, imprison him, bankrupt him, and kill him. And they've always failed. Charlie reacts to Trump's latest Houdini-like victory in his New York civil case. Then, he explains why it's so unsurprising that crime has immediately collapsed in D.C. after sending out the Guard. It all goes back to the nature of Trump himself: He is the anti-abstraction president. Plus, Nate Morris discusses his run to topple the McConnell machine in Kentucky and get an immigration moratorium for America.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Haunted History Chronicles, I'm joined by Dr Nick Richbell, historian, archivist, and Spiritualist. Together, we discuss the fascinating world of spirit guides: what they are, how mediums have worked with them, and why they became such an important feature of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Spiritualism. We explore famous cases, the rise of the movement, and the controversies surrounding fraud, scepticism, and representation in the Spiritualist press. With Nick's unique perspective as both a historian and a believer, this episode offers a compelling look at Spiritualism's past and what its enduring appeal reveals about society's hopes, fears, and search for life beyond the veil.My Special Guest Is Dr. Nick Richbell  Dr. Nick Richbell received his PhD in History from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. His area of research is the history of Spiritualism, and his doctoral dissertation is a biographical history about the medium Maurice Barbanell and his guide, Silver Birch. The teachings of Silver Birch are still talked about in Spiritualist churches today, however, Maurice Barbanell's name is rarely mentioned. Barbanell spent 61-years dedicated to Spiritualism and Dr. Richbell's research has started to correct this omission and put's Barbanell back into the historical discourse about him being the twentieth-century's leading propagandist of the religion and movement. Nick is currently finishing writing his book about Maurice Barbanell that will be published in 2026. Nick has long believed that there is more to life than an earthly existence. However, it was not until he started work as the Head of Special Collections and Archives at the University of Waterloo Library that he started to further consider the afterlife. The archives had two séance related collections. The Maines-Pincock Family collection holds records of seances conducted by the American medium William Cartheuser in the private home of Jenny O'Hara Pincock in St. Catharines, Ontario. Another collection, the Thomas Lacey Lecture collection contains over 400 lectures given by Lacey while in trance. Nick was able to bring in a new Lacey collection during his tenure at Waterloo: the Thomas Lacey séance collection: over 100 reel-to-reel tapes from the 1960s of recordings of seances conducted by Lacey in Kitchener, Ontario home. Nick is fascinated by the people in Spiritualism, and he began a journey, that continues today, to learn more about the British-born medium, Thomas Lacey. Nick was the research associate on the audio-documentary, The Ghost of Thomas Lacey, produced by Anthroscope Media. In this conversation, expect insights into: The world of spirit guides—their role in séances, Spiritualist belief, and how they shaped the movement's rise in the 19th and 20th centuries.Unpack the controversies of Spiritualism, from fraud allegations and sceptics like Houdini to debates over race, gender, and representation.If you value this podcast and want to enjoy more episodes please come and find us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Haunted_History_Chronicles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠to ⁠support the podcast, gain a wealth of additional exclusive podcasts, writing and other content.Links to all Haunted History Chronicles Social Media Pages, Published Materials and more:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/hauntedhistorychronicles?fbclid=IwAR15rJF2m9nJ0HTXm27HZ3QQ2Llz46E0UpdWv-zePVn9Oj9Q8rdYaZsR74I⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NEWPodcast Shop:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.teepublic.com/user/haunted-history-chronicles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me A Coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/hauntedhistorychronicles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Guest Links⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: nick@drspooky.com

Enjoy Magic!  Magic has a rich history spanning over 4,000 years, beginning with ancient Egyptian magician Dedi, known for early “cut and restore” illusions. Modern magic was shaped by Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin in the 19th century, who brought illusions from street performances to theaters. The late 1800s to early 1900s, known as magic's Golden Age, featured stars like Harry Houdini, who popularized escape acts and debunked fake spiritualists. As we grew up, we got to see all kinds of spectacular magic that was so hyped we couldn't resist trying it ourselves. Magic remains a captivating blend of art, science, and mystery that continues to evolve, and we can't get enough!   Who's your favorite magician? Got any tricks of your own?

Harry Houdini survived 91 minutes in an underwater coffin at the Shelton Hotel, New York on 5th August, 1926.  The stunt had been arranged to counter the claims of Hindu mystic Rahman Bey, who said spiritualism was the only way to survive being buried alive. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly review the spat between Houdini and Arthur Conan Doyle; reveal the ‘code' Houdini had promised his wife Beth he'd use if contacting her from beyond the grave; and consider whether vengeful psychic fraudsters were responsible for his death… Further Reading: • ‘How Houdini Stayed in an Underwater Coffin for 90 Minutes' (Mental Floss, 2016): https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/83075/how-houdini-stayed-underwater-coffin-90-minutes • ‘The Hotel Shelton pool in color' (Wild About Houdini, 2015): https://www.wildabouthoudini.com/2015/07/the-hotel-shelton-pool-in-color.html • ‘5 Things You May Not Have Known About Houdini' (Top5s, 2015): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiZj4xZTL-Y this episode first aired in 2021 Love the show?
