One of the most well know mediums in the UK - you can either love Derek or hate him! At Haunted Devon we will always attempt to bring you the material or evidence so that you can decide for yourself what to believe.  I have to say out of all the people I have spoken to I found Derek to be positive, charming and extremely helpful - so helpful infact that we ran over our allotted interview time. 

So what do we know about Derek?  Well we know that Derek's first experience of the paranormal was as a young child where he witnessed the spirit of his late grandfather. Derek initially played football for Liverpool and an Australian team USC Lion - before returning to the UK in the early 1980's. The author of his book "The Psychic world of Derek Acorah" commissioned in 1998 remembers that at that time Derek was NOT a trance medium - but a psychic working in Liverpool charging £20 for set 20 minute consultations. So what changed?

In July 2001 - Derek took part in the pilot show for "Most Haunted". Despite claims that Derek had faked material throughout his time with Most Haunted - many people still believe that he has ability and he remains one of the most well know mediums with a global audience.  His new series Derek Acorah Paranormal Egypt takes Derek away from the UK and places him firmly within Cairo and other sites in the country - an extremely novel concept.

Again you can either love Derek or hate him - if you hate him then you will not be interested in his two tour dates to the South West
