Sir Arthur Conan Doyle became interested in spiritualism back in the 1880s, when he wrote his famous detective stories of Sherlock Holmes, but after one of the mediums allegedly arranged writer contact with his Kinglsi dead son, this hobby has grown almost obsession with the idea of communicating with spirits.
At the same time the famous Harry Houdini was looking for a medium that would help him contact with the deceased mother. Houdini and Doyle met at one of the public lectures of the writer, became fast friends on the grounds of public interest in spiritualism and began to maintain a fairly close contact. At the beginning of XX-th century seances were, as they say, a fashionable trend - some believed mediums, others came to him only out of curiosity, but anyway, many have tried to talk to the departed in the world other relatives by the spiritualists.
Houdini Illusionist, being familiar with the technique of lip service to the public, quickly realized that almost all so-called "mediums" nothing more than a cynical crooks, profiteers simpletons who are ready to believe in miracles. He even began to expose spiritualists, appearing in the sessions and shouting: "I am Houdini and scam you!».
Houdini tried to convince the writer, something is wasting his time visiting seances, but Doyle was stubborn - he believed that mediums can communicate with the other world. Illusionist made his session and invited him Doyle, showed him his own stunts spiritualists, but the result was unexpected - the author of the deductive method in the literature began to believe that Houdini can also establish contact with the ghosts.
