Inside The Official Houdini Séance 2023

The 2023 Official Houdini Séance was held on Halloween at Holy City Magic in Charleston, South Carolina. According to this year's co-host, Howard Blackwell, "We saw some very interesting things happen, but Houdini did not make an appearance for the 97th year in a row. But, the official Houdini seance was an absolute success!"

Below are some images from the Holy City Magic Facebook page.

Here's a fun extra. Before the seance, the group went out for lunch at a local deli. Look what was on the menu. Maybe this is how Harry said "hello" this year?

Believe.
