Hopkinsville clairvoyant Edgar Cayce will be remembered later this month with a day of activities to celebrate and educate one of Christian County’s noted historical figures.
Alissa Keller, the executive director of the Museums of Historic Hopkinsville-Christian County, said this year’s event would be held on one day.

Cayce is known as the most documented psychic of the 20th century and gave psychic readings to thousands of people, diagnosing illnesses and revealing prophecies.
Keller said some of the activities on March 25 would include a healer.
