THIS STORY:
Mina "Margery" Crandon was a psychical medium. Investigators studied her intensely. She became more well known when her alleged paranormal skills were touted by Sherlock Holmes' author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Her methods and results were said to have been disproved by magician Harry Houdini, under an investigation in a contest sponsored by members of the American Society for Psychical Research and employees of the Scientific American.

THIS CHANNEL:
_________________________________________________________
The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.

Ron, I loved this story! I felt like I was in a theatre or an old time radio show! What a talent you have!

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

wow, inspiring comment Caroll, ty.

[@johnwoodcock8331]

Ron,love your Channel. I have been watching since the very beginning but have never seen you do a video in North Carolina .Just wondering why ?we have some amazing Cemeteries. I live in Wilmington NC

[@TiptonMama]

Absolutely fascinating! I don't know how I hadn't heard of her before! You should do a story on Edgar Cayce, Ron. He was very well-known as a clairvoyant born in 1877. He's resting in Riverside Cemetery in Hopkinsville, Kentucky.

[@stacywhaley9957]

O gosh! Come to KY !! Yes!!!

[@aliciak6753]

Yes I would love to hear a video about Edgar Cayce!

[@karencarbone2603]

Ron, I am on a roll tonight on history. Making up for lost time. This was a great story. Again, kudos to your storytelling skills my friend. I enjoyed 😉 this one very much!

[@jimmccord487]

This should be a great episode.Read Harry Houdini's biography many years ago which included this subject matter.

[@ConnieGeldreich22]

We went from weird to strange, stranger to really strange to ludicrous to an twist. I really liked this story. Thank you Ron 😂. May they all RIP! 🌹

[@msveliz01]

One of the reasons I like your show is because you always show something new and different. And talking about different, Mina was different in a very weird way 😵‍💫

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

thanks, I look for the strange and unusual--and I try to tell the untold stories.

[@napagirl48]

Ron so wonderfully told, another great one!! I am going to definitely look her up on the maps I have from Forest Hills , I am going there in November to meet up with 6 of my relatives from New England, I live in NJ, I have over42 relatives buried there, they were from Jamaica Plains/Boston area. I am going to have them watch this one for sure and the Boy in the Boat!! thank you again, graphic/pics and music were spot on!😊👍

[@exwyzee]

I giggled my way through half of this 😅 Oh my what a woman lol Great history as always Ron.❤️

[@nancyvolke237]

Your stories are the the best that include mystery, best narrative, and interesting 🤔 Thanks for sharing with us!!👏👍🏻

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

thx Nancy!

[@gingerwilliams3324]

I'm not sure about this fact but I believe I read that when Houdini's mother passed he indeed was involved w a spritalist. When he found out . He vowed to expose all of them.

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

yep, we talked about it--kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2LRn6VsgdimatU

[@patriciacollins6695]

Sorry I missed your live. I was so busy today. But I'm watching now. Have a great night

[@omgbarth]

Absolutely loved this story, Ron. Had no idea about the connection. Thank you. You are awesome!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@gatorgogo2742]

such an intriguing story. margery knew how to draw crowds. lol she was smart, confidant and brazen. i feel like she enjoyed doing it. thanks for this cool story.

[@theresalaux5655]

Just excellent Ron! You are a great storyteller and a kind and compassionate person! God bless 🙌 🙏 ❤️

[@marlenepearson3936]

This was great Ron! What a tale! Can't believe she did all that weird stuff to prove she was real. How did the rings get hooked together? I don't know! Loved the music and graphics! Wonderful! Sometimes I'm sitting here saying stop! Go back I want to look at this headstone 🪦, statue or bench! Wonderful old Cemetary! Well done Ron! ❤️ 💙 💜 💖

[@dantujunga1953]

I was laughing to myself as I listened to the story. Thank you for making and sharing. A+ 🤣

[@hermiendrridder875]

Those days people would have done many things for fame, I think there were 2 sets of wooden rings that were somehow swapped, may she rest in peace🙏

[@cherylh3091]

Perfect episode to lead us into the Halloween season. Loved it!

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

oh, just wait!

[@marymahaffey4618]

This was a very interesting and weird too being a spiritualist. Doing seaunces...loved listening to this story Ron. You did a very good job 👍.. my great aunt Grace my grandfather's sister had a wooden cabin here in hot springs Arkansas close to the lake called lake Hamilton....but in the cabin she would have seaunces with my family....i grew up there and we had family get togethers...everyone is gone now...ty for sharing this story bc it was a awesome and fun story... especially with Houdini thinking she was fake. But I loved it ...... safe travels and take care Ron....have a good week ahead....

[@justcurious3514]

Beautiful cemetery. The shade under those trees is perfect. And I love the music at the end of the video. Great story thanks for another great video

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

mainly that it was shot at 7AM, first light. dramatic shadows.

[@prestonkey9005]

Like usual I hope everyone has had a great and safe weekend

[@hollyb.3615]

This was a wonderful tale to listen to, even if bizarre! Always had a great respect for Harry Houdini and was totally intrigued with this story. I really enjoyed the music you selected, it made me feel like I was right there and even like I was watching some of the shenanigans this lady put on. ( Some of this was downright funny, I must say).Margery had quite an exhibitionist streak, didn't she? I did have some compassion for her, it seems everything unraveled for her after her husband's death. Thoroughly enjoyable, thanks so much, Ron!

[@virginiakeim]

You never disappoint Ron! This was an excellent story and so well told. Thank you so much!

[@lanacampbell-moore6686]

Thanks Ron I ❤️ This Channel!!!👏😊

[@tanyabucel628]

My hubby and I can always count on a very good episode to watch!! You are the MASTER of storytelling and absolutely love your work~! Keep it up and stay safe out of there! xoxo We so enjoy your channel!

[@monicalitman1396]

If I remember Houdini was a magician first so he would know the trickery. The thumbprint is funny because spirits wouldn’t have them🤷🏻‍♀️ Great story as usual and thank you for making them realistic today.

[@gothboschincarnate3931]

how do you "know the trickery"? if it comes from the 3.1 spiritual dimension (and much greater)? while not impressed with this primitive material nonsense, the higher dimension are impressive. In other words...materialism is primitive and inferior and cannot revel the workings of the spiritual. Someday science will be able too. A device will reveal enough to get the attention of the bigoted scientist...

[@jikooksupporter1979]

You are the best storyteller i have ever heard!!! Great job Ron!! With love,Elena

[@larauch13]

Interesting to hear the whole story. Thank you.

[@janeglover3118]

Wow the story was so fun. Your so good at this. That cemetery is NICE💯💯❤️❤️

[@GaryBass100]

This story illustrates the fact that there are many fakers and fraudsters who are willing to exploit the grief of family members of the deceased. We still have such ilk at work today.

[@gothboschincarnate3931]

All human endeavors are poisoned by liars, fakes, hypocrites. Crossing dimensions isn't easy.

Ron, your stories are quite interesting. Sometime I hope you’ll check out the Boyd-Parker Park, in western New York. There’s quite a story behind it. It’s also not far from Letchworth State Park.

[@Lauriescaglione210]

very interesting Ron. Thank you.

[@bobbijo288]

I bet Ron is gonna have fun this fall and Halloween 🎃 with some fascinating stories 👻 to tell ⚰🪦🗝🎬

[@footballlvnlady]

I read a book on Houdini. Harry didn’t believe in the paranormal. After he died his wife had many seances to try to contact him. None of them worked. I have personally had a couple readings. But there was no naked lady, glitter, nose discharge or rods involved. 😁 Margery was a piece of work. Thanks Ron for this epic story!

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

Thanks Cherie. Yes I did the Houdini grave and story in New York last year and we talked all about that, he was big into Debunking. If you haven’t seen it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2LRn6VsgdimatU ( guessing you saw it already, but just in case)

VERY INTRIGUING video, Ron!! I couldn't help but giggle at the naked seances!! This was a really enjoyable story!! Thanks for sharing, my friend!! XXXX 👍💖

[@cking91182]

another great episode Ron ❤️💯

[@charlessmith2392]

Thank you again

[@jonathanbrown4933]

I'll tell you what I really like about these posts Ron, lest it be overlooked. These old graveyards are lovely archateual landscaped expressions. They are beautiful parks with remarkable shubberies and trees, and the monuments are intricate works of art. Its true that death might be all around but the lives of those buried there are honored by the intricately carved stones. The ironery might lie in the fact that deaths forboding presence preserves such pristine places from the troding riff-raff. May they never be tampered with. Thank you.

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

then you will really like teh last episode in New England, just over a week from today, 2PM Tuesday.

Amazing story Ron, I love the stories which involve the big players like Harry Houdini and Arthur Conan Doyle, it's really good when they link up in the story. Brilliant thanks Ron

[@pegs1659]

Ron, you sure can be funny. Ron: It was said she was too attractive.... It must have been when she was young because the picture I looked at...... This was a great story! I certainly got a mental image of what you were saying. She was a bit of a tart lol.

yes! a "TART"!! I love that.

[@godblessamerica3247]

Hi from Waycross GA!

[@seekerofthetruth6257]

Rest in peace Mrs. Crandon, Walter Stinson, the Stinson Family, Rest in peace everyone. My opinion: Fakes of any kind in this area cast a bad jacket on all who practice in these areas be it privately, or professionally. As for magician's magik tricks most are guarded secrets. Stay safe Sir & everyone. Ps. sad to say but talk about the power going to ones head she may have lost it.

[@nadaleenbrady8183]

Wow Ron what a story! Thank you for telling this! You are such a masterful storyteller!! Keep em coming you rock it!!

[@susanna3]

What a great story, this lady was a piece of work, geez! Good example of truth is stranger than fiction. She seemed like she got a kick out of being an utter fraud. I was laughing about some of the bizarre stunts she pulled and your comment about her picture too😆 Good for Harry Houdini for exposing her tricks. Ron thank you for the history, research and telling this story. Next week we're going to Forrest Hills to check it out!

[@peterredfern1174]

Well I suppose only she knew the truth may she Rest In Peace ,🙏🙏👍🇦🇺

Great story mate thanks for sharing 👍

[@donc7354]

Mr. Ron..What an eerie and interesting story. Ironically, I began reading Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novel "Land of the Mist" last week. It is a Professor Challenger adventure that deals with Spiritualism. Lots of what is mentioned in the story was also mentioned in your episode. Great work as usual and looking forward to our next FOTF adventure.
