The mission: Your story in Naples

You are the leading expert on the legends of Naples. One night while working on your new book about the infamous Raimondo di Sangro, you are suddenly interrupted by a call.

It's the police chief of the city.
"Something terrifying is going on here in the Santa Luciella church. Nobody can explain it. You must come here immediately." - He says horrified.

Before you can ask what is going on exactly, he hangs up. You can't even imagine what it could be. But you must go and find it out.
