About this event
Join staff from the Pratt's Maryland Department on Tuesday, October 20th in the Poe Room at the Central Library for the 4th program in our series on the Dark Side of Maryland ! Do spirits return, and can we communicate with the dead? Baltimore’s Spiritualists thought so, but magicians worked to disprove them. Learn about spirit mediums, the Ouija Board, and Baltimore’s group of amateur magicians, the Demons Club. This is program 4 in our 6 part Dark Side of Maryland series.
