Houdini- TV Series

"When you go for greatness, sometimes your stumble."- Harry Houdini
"I carry their fears on my shoulders...the fear of Death."- Harry Houdini

I just watched and thoroughly enjoyed the second and final part of "Houdini", with Adrien Brody and on Channel 4.Harry Houdini wages war on the psychics in his effort to contact his dead Mother.

Does he succeed in contacting the other side? Watch this truly entertaining tv series on Harry Houdini, the world's most famous Illusionist and Escape-Artist.
