DETROIT – One of the greatest escape artists in history had a number of memorable performances in Detroit — but he couldn’t escape his untimely death in the city 100 years ago this week.
The history of Houdini’s death on October 31, 1926 will come alive at the Detroit Historical Museum 100 years to the day on Saturday, October 31 with “Houdini 100: Magic and Mystery.”
