If he could be convinced of fairies by two young girls then he was a sucker for anything!

I beg to differ with your cut an paste history lesson: Houdini wrote, Margery the Medium Exposed. Many people consider that book to have debunked her. It also seems very likely that many of the explanations in that book are correct. He also wrote Miracle Mongers and Their Methods. Jeff Richards wrote: Quote:
Houdini definitely couldn't make it among the ranks of mentalists and séance workers of the time. So he evidently took to exposing fakes and frauds. We're all doomed. The very fabric of what we do is going to decay and we will all be out of work. Whether Houdini had the ability is a matter of debate. However, the implication that he decided to expose fakes because he could not perform as one is incorrect. Houdini despised fraudulent mediums, and charlatans in general.
Humans make life so interesting. Do you know that in a universe so full of wonders, they have managed to create boredom. Quite astonishing.
