[History Hounds] Just Wild About Harry: Houndini in Detroit with Jeremy Dimick, Detroit Historical Society

Harry Houdini played Detroit 19 times between 1894 and 1926. Audiences witnessed nearly all his increasingly dangerous signature tricks firsthand, and saw his star rise from the bottom of show bills to very top. Tour Houdini’s Detroit and discover the macabre link between the city and history’s most famous magician.
