Houdini! His magic & escapes. The only building in the world totally devoted to Houdini. Tours change & includes entertainment with a magic show.

Halloween fun spooky shows the last 3 weeks in Oct. (no tours) & our yearly Official Houdini Halloween seance on the Web on Oct 31, now live via webcam.
We cover Houdini's career & facts about Houdini not found elsewhere & growing. The Houdini Museum has national and international significance, especially since the tragic fire of the partial Houdini exhibit in Niagara Falls in May of 1995 and our being featured on many TV Shows including The Travel Channel.

Open for 13 years, prior to that on display for 15 years at the legendary Magic Towne House in NYC where we also did the only Official Houdini Halloween seances in NYC (Houdini's home town as an adult), that was then passed on to magician Dorothy Dietrich and moved to our new location here.

The Houdini Museum has been called one of the most unique museums and attractions in the world.

HOUDINI MUSEUM ON NATIONAL TV! MONTEL WILLIAMS SHOW. TRAVEL CHANNEL & THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL! Dorothy Dietrich was on the Montel Williams Show recently as well as the Discovery Channel and Exploring The Unknown. Montel, called her "The World's Leading Female Magician and Escape Artist," showed clips of her doing the Jinxed Bullet Catch at Resorts International in Atlantic City and she escaped from a straight-Jacket. The show sought out the world's greatest women in various fields. Dorothy is the first woman in history to accomplish the jinxed catch in the mouth. The one stunt Houdini backed down on! She's also the first women to escape from a Straight Jacket with a burning rope, a stunt Houdini never did. Discovery Channel has done several different segments at the Houdini Museum.
