About Linda Gazzera
- Linda Gazzera (1890-1932) was an Italian spiritualist medium. During 1908-1910, Gazzera was investigated in a series of séances by the spiritualist Enrico Imoda who endorsed her alleged materializations as genuine.
- Photographs were taken, they were later published in a posthumous book entitled Fotografie di Fantasmi in 1912.
- French psychical researcher Guillaume de Fontenay in an afterword for the book cast doubt on the authenticity of the photographs, noting that the materializations looked dubious and two-dimensional with suspicious shadows.Skeptical author Joseph McCabe has written that Gazzera was exposed as a fraud in 1911.
- According to McCabe "Her materializations and tricks were simple.
- She brought her birds and flowers and muslin and masks (or pictures) in her hair (which was largely false, and never examined) and her under-clothing, and she, by a common trick, released her hands and feet from control to manipulate them."
