The TV psychic takes to the stage to bring his supernatural show to his fans, up close and personal. Acorah has helped bring supernatural experiences to a mainstream audience instead of being more of a cult. The medium's first supernatural encounter happened at a young age when his grandfather died and later his spirit visited him. Acorah is perhaps most famous for his appearances on the hit Living TV show Most Haunted which is presented by Yvette Fielding. Acorah became a popular medium of the show featuring on the first six series and participating in live specials which showcased his talents. After Most Haunted, Acorah got his own TV show Derek Acorah's Ghost Towns which focused on people rather than haunted buildings. Acorah has released many DVDs which showcase his talents along with published books which explore his talent and amazing stories which he has encountered. His supernatural gifts have made Acorah a success internationally, with his UK tours constantly proving popular year after year.
