The Houdini Experiment

For Two Nights Only.

October 30 & October 31, 2026

Only 30 guests per performance.

Recommended for ages 13 & up.

One hundred years ago, on Halloween, October 31, 1926, the world’s most famous escape artist took his final breath.

While he was born in Wisconsin under the name Erich Weiss, the world knew him better by the name, Harry Houdini.

Before his death, Houdini made an extraordinary promise.

If it were possible for anyone to communicate from beyond the grave, he would find a way.

For the last century, countless mediums, magicians, investigators, believers, and skeptics have attempted to receive his message.

None have been able to prove it.

Until now…

Join Joe Diamond, The Midwest Mystic, inside the historic and reportedly haunted Maxwell Mansion for a Halloween experience unlike anything else.

This is not a haunted house.

It is not a traditional séance.

And it is not a stage show.

It is an immersive theatrical experiment where twenty strangers become participants in a question that has fascinated the world for more than one hundred years…

Can Harry Houdini keep his final promise?

Throughout the evening, you will…

• Explore the true story behind Houdini’s final days and the mystery that still surrounds his death.

• Experience remarkable demonstrations inspired by the strange history of psychic investigation, intuition, and impossible coincidences.

• Take part in interactive experiments where every guest becomes part of the unfolding mystery.

• Witness extraordinary moments that challenge what you believe is possible.

• Join Joe Diamond as he conducts The Houdini Experiment, a once-in-a-century attempt to reach Wisconsin’s most legendary illusionist exactly one hundred years after his passing.

Whether you’re a believer, skeptic, history enthusiast, paranormal investigator, or simply looking for one of the most unique Halloween experiences in the Midwest, this unforgettable evening was created for you.

Every performance is limited to just 20 guests, creating an intimate atmosphere where no two experiments are ever exactly alike.

The question has remained unanswered for one hundred years.

On October 30th and 31st…

We’ll ask it again.

Will Houdini make contact with YOU?
