On October 31st 1926 on Halloween when Houdini passed away. His body was transported to the Hamilton Funeral Home, located at 3977 Cass Avenue in Detroit. It was here where he was embalmed and placed in a special bronze casket complete with a glass lid. The casket was originally intended to be used by Houdini for one of his magic performances. The casket was nailed into a wooden crate, shipped to Michigan Central Station, and from there onto a train bound for New York. Since then, new owners have neglected the old funeral home building, which was hit by lightning years ago and ruined by rain damage. There is always some speculation of trying to restore the building and use it for something else, but time will tell. It still sits run-down but majestic on the outside, but a derelict mess on the inside, corner of Cass and Alexandrine.
