Ann O'Delia Diss Debar, Spirit Princess and Worst Woman In The World

from Criminalia · host Shondaland Audio and iHeartPodcasts

Ann O'Delia Diss Debar was a medium and a fortune teller who was once described by the famous performer Harry Houdini as, quote, “one of the most extraordinary fake mediums and mystery swindlers the world has ever known.” She made her name -- well, her many names -- as a spiritualist with occult powers, but she was 100 percent fraud. And from 1870 to 1910, she bilked people for millions of dollars around the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
