Here's an odd one. The insurance company Choice Mutual asked more than 3,100 people if they could be buried next to any celebrity, who would they choose. Houdini came in at #43 between Robert F. Kennedy and Bette Davis. He was the only magician to make the list.
For the record, Houdini's mother is buried beside him in Machpelah Cemetery in Queens.
So who's the lucky stiff at #1? Elvis, of course!
Yes, Larry Weeks got close.
ReplyDeleteIt it possible, (as has been done at other burial sites) there are those whose ashes have been anonymously scattered in/near the area where Houdini is buried.
