Houdini Museum

The Story

The Pennsylvania Paranormal Association records reports of pictures falling despite secure fittings, doors opening or closing and visitors feeling touched inside the museum. Its 2018 team described a small object moving during a session and motion lights failing together before recovering. The museum also stages séances, which are separate entertainment events.
