One of the searches I tried gave me results that included a headline proclaiming: "Multi-million selling newspaper declares him World's Greatest Psychic." We read of a person named Roberto Campagni. Witnesses claim that objects would appear around him mysteriously, objects that might gradually form as the witnesses watched. Such objects are called apports in the literature of parapsychology. We read this:
"Astounded witnesses testify that Campagni's hands begin to glow with a blue light. He passes a shapeless cloud of this light into a visitor's cupped hands. Within the palms the cloud becomes a solid object."
We read the testimony of a priest who states, "He put a luminous ball of light into my hands, and there it became a small silver angel."
The strange tale can be read in full using the link below:
