- [[Include(Stub)]]	+ The '''Davenport Cabinet''' is an illusion created in the late 19th century by the ["Davenport Brothers"] of ["Rochester"], and was subsequently used in their [wiki:wikipedia:S%C3%A9ance séance] shows. The brothers' early shows required them to extinguish all lights in the house where they performed, so that they could maneuver rope and props in darkness, claiming that spirits were performing the tricks. Naturally, this deception was not entirely convincing, and the Davenport brothers returned to their home in Rochester to develop a better method. Out of this experimentation came the Davenport Cabinet, a basic wooden cabinet large enough for both brothers to sit within, often with a volunteer audience member joining them.
