Reader Bruce East recently alerted me to a connection between Houdini and Coca-Cola that I've never heard before. LINK: Houdini’s Final Texas Tour By Ron Cartlidge.So was this really the best hotel Houdini ever stayed in, or was he just giving the new hotel a friendly plug? Another Houdini mystery! These were his last appearances in Texas.

It was at this time that he infamously appeared at a Ku Klux Klan Auditorium in Fort Worth (although not at a Klan event). Houdini was in Denison during a seven-day tour of Texas with his spiritualism lecture in 1924. The hotel continued to offer daily rates until 1986, when it shifted to monthly rental rates. 14, 1924 edition of the Denison Herald, famous illusionist and escape artist Harry Houdini was quoted as saying 'nowhere in my travels have I found a hotel any better equipped and with better accommodations' about the Hotel Denison. This followed a fire in 1920 that destroyed the original Hotel Denison. The Hotel Denison first opened its doors at the corner of Chestnut and Burnett in October 1924 as the Simpson Hotel.
