Houdini is back at the Winchester Mystery House

The famed Winchester Mystery House in San Jose is offering several special "Festival Fright Nights" tour experiences in October, including one themed to Houdini. Here are the details:

Can the Dead speak to the Living? Witness a diabolical secret hidden within an astounding display of magical arts, as legendary magician Harry Houdini mysteriously disappears before a séance rehearsal at Llanada Villa. Surrounded by magic memorabilia and props infamously used to disprove the existence of spirits, Houdini’s assistant invites several lucky participants to the séance table for the ultimate demonstration of staged paranormal trickery. Of course, Llanada Villa is no ordinary stage… and this is no ordinary séance. When avid spiritualist Sarah Winchester departed from the mortal realm, the ancient supernatural forces long kept at bay beneath her beloved home grew restless, waiting for a fresh voice to call out in the dark. Tonight, Houdini’s voice will challenge the unknown, all in the name of magic; if seeing is believing, even the toughest nonbelievers may leave this exclusive performance questioning.

You can book the "Do Spirits Return?" experience via the Winchester Mystery House official website. It will be available through November 1st.
