The World's Greatest Escape Artist(s) Meet...

...in a 1993 "Elseworlds" story set in early 1900s Gotham City.
The non-continuity tale re-imagines Batman (or "Bat-Man" as he's referred to) operating in a Victorian steampunk reality where science and the occult intermingle.
Besides Houdini, there are vampires aplenty, plus re-interpretations of several Batman characters including Alfred, Vicki Vale, and (surprise) The Joker.
The award-winning graphic novel is well worth reading, if you can find it.
