Victor Zammit on Materialization Miracles

Words cannot describe what I witnessed last night during the materialization experiment with medium David Thompson in Sydney arranged for the benefit of a guest sitter, spiritual author Camilla Persson who flew out from Sweden to sit with the Circle of the Silver Cord. Without a doubt, materialization mediumship is the ultimate proof for survival.

David Thompson is performing ‘miracles’ during his materialization experiments. Last night, 15th October 06, we witnessed in red light ectoplasm coming out from David’s mouth. We took photos of this ectoplasm. The experience of seeing this phenomenon was quite fantastic.

William then asked for us to place a luminous circular plate on the floor and we saw ectoplasm flow over the lit plate. William then put his hand into ectoplasm and we could clearly see a hand outlined. The ectoplasm was then draped over the luminous plate as it was held by a sitter- he could feel it spilling over onto his leg until it was quickly withdrawn.

Timothy, the entity who controls the ectoplasm and helps bring through people’s relatives, conducted a spectacular trumpet display and brought the father of one of the sitters who spoke to her through the trumpet for amplification and gave her an apport, a beautiful small butterfly charm.

William himself then materialized – he went around our Circle and touched many of the sisters, including putting his right hand on my left shoulder.

His particularly deep, idiosyncratically resonant voice, immeasurably and definitively different from the medium’s voice boomed inches away from my face. He asked for questions and answered them masterfully. Some questions were of private nature and accordingly we would not put these private sound files on my website – but visit my website to hear the voices of these materialized entities who used to walk this planet earth more than a hundred years ago.

Arthur Conan Doyle and Louis Armstrong materialized, also Gandhi and Jack who went around the circle touching all of the sitters. Everyone commented on the fact that he has a huge hand, far bigger than that of anyone in the room.

To my knowledge there are now only three materialization mediums demonstrating publicly in the Western world – David Thompson, now living in Sydney, is one of them. So that those powerful spirits who want to give us some kind of a message do not have much choice but to come through one of the three materialization mediums. David now has regular spirit guests and occasionally we get Silver Birch and Maurice Barbanell, the former Psychic News editor.

They all tell us that it is very difficult to materialize and talk through ectoplasm, much more difficult than speaking through direct voice and that it takes much practice; they also say that some people are never able to do it.

At the moment we have a prima facie case made out about these entities are who they are claiming to be. We are doing voice correlations to properly identify them comparing their voices from on earth to how they come in materialized form. The ultimate voice correlation tests of course are when we will be able to do Forensic Audio testing. Hopefully that will not be too long.

I have been empirically investigating the paranormal for the last sixteen years and can state with absolute certainty that paranormal activity IS taking place. There is not the slightest doubt about that. But we do get a few people giving us what THEY think we should be doing during these spectacular materializations. These are some of the impractical suggestions:

Use an infra-red camera. Although this seems to be immediately the best way to show that entities are materializing, to many people’s surprise, the skeptics have not accepted photographs taken of materializations by another physical medium in England. Skeptics are claiming that everything has been staged! William tells us in Sydney that infra red filming has radiation and he said that a primary concern is to protect his medium.

Talking to the experts I was informed that there are two types of infra red cameras – active and passive. Active infra red emits radiation – which according to William that would be potentially harmful to his medium. And there is the passive infra red filming which, we were informed, just exaggerates what is seen in the darkness. That is of no use to us at all.

There are those uninformed and obdurately stubborn who think they are omniscient and infallible about these matters who stated that in any materialization mediumship there must be fraud going on because the results are too fantastic to be true. They mistakenly claim that only infra red filming would prove what is really going in the darkness.

As an expert in evidence I can state with absolute certainty that these experiments can pass any scientific tests for validation.

To me voice correlations are more empirically critical than infra red filming for the above stated reasons – no skeptic has been converted because of infra red filming in materialization mediumship. But voice correlations, notwithstanding the entities have the difficulty of speaking through ectoplasm, are far more empirically reliable.

Another assertion was that there must be a trapdoor for someone to come into the séance room. This is an invalid objection because the critics do not understand and are totally ignorant of how fastidiously empirically meticulous our experiment is – especially in measures taken to prevent fraud.

Another claim is that it is David Thompson who is producing all those different voices! First these critics have not read what preparation we take to prevent fraud.
David is always tied into the chair hand and foot. He is not only gagged fairly tightly but we also put seals around the gag. Also at times we put coded lines down the medium’s face from the upper side flesh of the face over the gag towards the jaw so that if the gag was removed it would be impossible in the dark to get the gag back exactly as it was before. I state that it would be impossible for the medium even to produce his own voice under these strict conditions. Electronic testing all showed that all voices produced different graphs for each voice showing that each voice was a different voice.

Another objection was that a ectoplasm does not exist and that a female confederate of the medium must be putting gauze or muslin into a condom, hiding the condom in her vagina and then passing the gauge to another confederate. This was stated in an old book published in 1970 called The Psychic Mafia. I nearly fell off my chair laughing at this objection it is so ridiculous – especially, after witnessing ectoplasm emanating from the medium last Sunday.

Materialization of those who crossed over more than seventy years ago and now are walking and talking again in the year 2006 is something the world has to know is really happening. We have highly credible professionals as sitters – none of whom belong to any Spiritualist Church. We are all open minded, highly informed empirical skeptics who are conceding that materializations are taking place and providing absolute proof that the afterlife exists.
