Target: Midnight by Abbott’s Magic

Description

Target: Midnight performers (which include spook shows, séances, mediums, etc.) have been around since man first walked upright so saying it all started with the Abbott’s Magic Company would be a falsehood. Kellar, Thurston, Blackstone, and many others all did some form of “spook show” magic in their acts but they were simply part of a larger magic act. However three major catalysts happened in a 5 year period that really led to the conditions being right for the Abbott’s Magic Company to have the success it did enjoy (and does to this day) with the Target: Midnight performers.
