a hidden camera / reality television series on MTV, executive produced by Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg. It is named after the room Harry Houdini died in at Detroit ‘s Grace Hospital in 1926.

“Mihm enters the kitchen, where several relatives are talking in hushed tones. ‘I’m very sorry for what happened,’ he says. ‘I’m here to help you.’ Neatly dressed in slacks and a polo shirt, the 48-year-old Mihm has the stocky, powerful build of an ex-athlete. A former Glendale homicide detective, he is accustomed to coping with tragedy with equanimity and compassion.”
