Is Arthur Hoyt or Tully Marshall the Houdini/Bacon Bridge?

The bacon number for Houdini can be calculated by typing: “bacon number houdini” in Google.

In September, iTricks posted that Harry Houdini’s Bacon number is 4 and that the Houdini/Bacon bridge was Arthur Hoyt:

  1. Harry Houdini and Arthur Hoyt appeared in The Grim Game.
  2. Arthur Hoyt and Harry Holman appeared in The Meanest Gal in Town.
  3. Harry Holman and Frances Lee McCain appeared in Phantom Thunderbolt.
  4. Frances Lee McCain and Kevin Bacon appeared in Footloose.

Note: Author Hoyt played Dr. Tyson in The Grim Game.

Three months later, Harry Houdini’s Bacon number is still 4, but the Houdini/Bacon bridge is now Tully Marshall according to Google:

  1. Harry Houdini and Tully Marshall appeared in The Grim Game.
  2. Tully Marshall and Fay Wray appeared in Thunderbolt.
  3. Fay Wray and Matt Dillon appeared in Off the Menu: The Last Days of Chasen’s.
  4. Matt Dillon and Kevin Bacon appeared in Loverboy.

Note: Tully Marshall played Richard Raver in The Grim Game.

Any way you look at it, The Grim Game is the bridge between Houdini and Kevin Bacon.

I also want to give a shout out to Kevin Connolly and John Cox/iTricks for the following related Houdini/Bacon posts:
