The Great Wizard of the North

He was known as the Great Wizard of the North, credited with bringing street magic to theatres across the country.

Aberdeen magician John Henry Anderson delighted 19th century audiences with his showmanship, inspiring Harry Houdini along the way.

Now his character is being used in a new digital project, aimed at telling visitors about the wonders of Aberdeen city centre.
