À propos de cet audio
Just in time for Halloween! In the first of two parts, we will weave a kind of dual biography: Harry Houdini and the spiritualist movement. While Houdini is perfecting his craft to become the world's most famous illusionist, scores of Americans and Europeans are being drawn into darkened rooms with mediums who can talk to the dead.

As usual, here is a possible reading list for your enjoyment:
The Spiritualists by Ruth Brandon
