Margery & Houdini: Part One - An Informal Gathering

The Snake's Paw has produced a 4-part audio drama about Houdini and Margery written by Matthew Morris and Andrew Farrier with help from Jack Townsend. Houdini is voiced by Harmon Gunston and Margery is voiced by Helen Jaksch. Below is the first installment: An Informal Gathering.

In the 1920s, Harry Houdini was on a mission to debunk mediums who claimed to communicate with the dead. This eventually led him to an extraordinary woman named Mina Crandon. Based on true events, Margery & Houdini relates how the most mystifying medium of her day and the most famous escape artist of all time came to meet each other - and how each struggled to prove the other wrong.

In Part One, several people - including one inquisitive stranger - meet at the Crandon household to commune with a long lost relative. 


I will post Part Two next week. But if you can't wait, know you can listen to all four parts now at The Snake's Paw YouTube channel. They also have the entire series in one 2-hour clip HERE. You can support The Snake's Paw with a donation on Ko-fi.

Thanks to Jonathan Fells in Wales for the tip!
