Is That Uncle Fester at the 2015 Skowhegan State Fair?


Miss Spooky illuminates a light bulb
by placing it in her mouth while
an electric current runs through her
body on August 13, 2015.

When the World of Wonders visited the Skowhegan State Fair, one of the acts would feature a chair with an electrified seat that would send a current of electricity though the body of the performer who dares sit on it. How does one make the electric current running through their
body visible to others? Shaking and convulsing wouldn't make a lot of sense since the performer would have to finely condition their body to handle the pain of the wattage. Instead, this is achieved by placing a light bulb into the mouth reminiscent of Uncle Fester from the Addams Family.
