Content

[edit]

Much of the content in this article it is relevant to the topic. However, a few areas seem to be "padded" with information that is not technically relevant to the topic. For instance, this article is about The House of Houdini, a museum in Budapest, Hungary, dedicated to the work and life of Harry Houdini. Despite this, the article takes a turn and discusses other Houdini museums elsewhere in the world. Eveshipman (talk) 18:16, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
