Houdini Museum, Tour & Magic Show WEEKENDS 1433 North Main Avenue, Scranton, PA 18508

"The amount of rude reviews on this little gem of a museum is so disheartening. If you’re looking for something odd and entertaining with a nostalgic vintage feel to it, you must go here. It’s the true essence of old school and fun. I would not recommend for iPad kids and rotten teenagers as they just wouldn’t “get it”. Save this as a place to go with friends with a sense of humor and an interest in the dark arts. It’s truly a masterpiece. I love it there and would absolutely return any opportunity I get."

"Brilliant . Dorothy Dietrich is your guide and she performs. She is the most famous female magician and broke the glass ceiling in a male dominated profession. She is a walking encyclopedia on Houdini. There is so much fascinating memorabilia and cute gift shop. Highly recommend. Great value. Fun. Fun. Fun."

"The worst part is they wouldn't let you take photos after I started clicking them. I was still no more photos. The lady had a great personality but she like to talk and the only drawback is I can actually go around and take photos of all this memorabilia stuff. Otherwise the magic show was short but it was nice. Okay"

"If you are ever interested in the history of Houdini, this is the place to go! They give you a VERY detailed tour of the original artifacts they have from Houdini and the history that goes along with them. Very family friendly environment. The owners are very nice and go out of their way to put on a good magic show for you. This is a must stop if you are in the area (or even out of the area)"

"The place is jam-packed with Houdini history and memorabilia. Dorothy was a great magician..in fact, the most well known female magician for escaping a straight jacket from a burning rope quite a few hundred feet in the air and other stunts. She and her partner were great. The overall experience was fun and a definite must see!"
