Houdini's Unmasking was a book written by Jean Hugard in 1957 that was originally appeared serialized in Jean Hugards magazine Hugard's Magic Monthly (beginning with Volume 15, Number 1, June 1957).

It was written in response to Houdini's unflattering book about Robert-Houdin called The Unmasking of Robert-Houdin claiming that Robert-Houdin was not the originator of many of his tricks.

Hugard refutes many of Houdini's arguments point for point.
