Latest News On Derek Acorah & Derek Acorah Ghost Towns

Derek Acorah Paranormal Eygpt Starts Tuesday 4th September 10pm Living TV

 

Brand new to LIVING this week is an exclusive show which blends historical and paranormal investigation as it looks at some of the great mysteries shrouding Egypt’s most famous leaders and ancient locations. Paranormal Egypt sees renowned medium Derek Acorah and acclaimed historian Tessa Dunlop join forces and delve into a world full of intrigue and secrets, often uncovering stories which will send shockwaves through both the historical and Egyptian communities.

By looking at one of the most ancient and fascinating cultures in the world, and with the help of some of the leading international authorities on Egyptian history – including Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities Dr Zahi Hawass – this show blows some of the oldest conspiracy theories held about Egypt wide open. Taking centre stage together, Derek and Tessa visit such legendary locations as The Valley of Kings, the tomb of Tutankhamen, the pyramids and the Sphinx as they look at mysterious murders and explore the mythology of the country. The pair also gain access to the mummy of Queen Hatshepsut, the famous female Pharaoh, weeks before the rest of the world’s press.

In this week’s sensational series premiere, the team investigate the death of one of the most famous Egyptian’s of all time: Ramses III. Amid the breathtaking, arid landscape, Tessa and Derek look into a scandalous palace plot to kill the ruler as they try to lay bare the story behind the demise of the last great pharoah. An investigative show which promises both shocking and absorbing disclosures, Paranormal Egypt starts exclusively on LIVING Tuesday 4th September 10pm.

TV medium possessed by town’s old haunts

TV medium Derek Acorah signs autographs for fans and townspeople with spooky tales during his production company's visit to Devizes on Tuesday (18314/13)

TV medium Derek Acorah collapsed after claiming he was possessed by an evil spirit when he came to Devizes on a ghost hunt. The Living TV expert, along with former EastEnder Daniella Westbrook, was filming Ghost Towns for the channel in the town on Tuesday when he visited blacksmith John Girvan's forge at Lower Wharf.Mr Acorah and Cash in the Attic presenter Angus Purden had been invited to investigate a presence Mr Girvan had been aware of for some time.Mr Girvan, who runs ghost walks for tourists around the town, said: "As soon as Derek came in, he said he was aware of someone. He went to the cell door that originally came from Devizes Prison."He said he could see legs and feet in the doorway but nothing about them. He explained there was a calming presence in there holding it back and I told him about the crucifix I had found bricked up in the wall of the forge."He took it out and he became possessed. It was terrifying. He was shouting as though arguing with someone. Then he gasped and keeled over. A member of the crew caught him before he hit the floor and held him there until he regained consciousness."I was speechless. When he came round he said the cross should go back in the wall."Just as they were finishing filming, there was an enormous crash from somewhere around."That was far from the only ghostly encounter for the TV crew. They saw the ghost of a young girl at the Kennet and Avon Canal Trust's museum at the Wharf.Mr Acorah, Miss Westbrook, museum co-ordinator Maureen Crossley and volunteer helper David Bartlett all witnessed the appearance of the ghostly female face.Mrs Crossley, who has worked at the canal centre for six months, said it manifested itself as a glowing light which evolved into the face of a woman wearing a bonnet.She said: "We didn't know what to expect but it wasn't anything like this."Danniella was delighted. She said she had never seen a ghost before."Mr Acorah believes the ghost's name is Victoria and she was 19 years old when she died.The film crew spent a day in the town. A huge Ghost Truck stood parked in the Market Place, with an invitation to all to come and talk about their ghostly encounters.By Tuesday evening, there were huge crowds of local people, braving the drizzle and strong winds, outside the pantechnicon, possibly as much to see former EastEnders star Danniella Westbrook as to tell of psychic experiences, but assistant producer Sue Venables said the team was very pleased with the stories they had received.One of those who came to tell her tale was Jenni Harrison, from Roundway Gardens, who helps out at the Upstairs Downstairs antique centre in the Market Place.She told the team that she and others had smelt tobacco smoke, as though from a pipe, in the building and, despite checking the whole place had not been able to find a source for the smell.Mrs Harrison said: "We have come in in the mornings to find pictures lying flat on the floor not broken, as if they had fallen off, but placed on the floor. We have also found dirt on window sills that had just been cleaned."The building was formerly a pub called the White Swan and Mrs Harrison thinks the ghost may be a former regular who still likes to enjoy a quiet sit down and a smoke.The 19-strong production team were staying at the Bear Hotel where one of the investigations took place in the Cellar Bar, the venue for Jazz at the Bear every weekend.Knowing that barman Adrian Elmer had a psychic talent, proprietor Andrew McLachlan asked him to accompany the team to the cellar.Mr Elmer did not let him down and located the ghost of an 18th century cellarman who died of a heart attack.Mr Aconah discovered the man was seeking his wife Mabel and, after the spirit entered Mr Elmer's body, Mr Aconah was able to release the spirit to return to his wife.Mr Acorah was delighted with the input from the residents of Devizes, helping him to open out the haunted house format of previous series with more public participation.He said: "The whole team is very excited about what we have found here. The contribution by ordinary members of the public by way of offering psychic energies has been superb."I hope they have not been too shocked by what they have seen. Devizes folk are very friendly people." By Lewis Cowenhttp://www.thisiswiltshire.co.uk/display.var.671694.0.0.php


Oswestry's Ghostly Connections Attract TV Ghostbuster

The Medium Derek Acorah of Living TV's Most Haunted fame will be casting his psychic eye over the town of Oswestry this month as part of a new TV series.Accommpanied by Angus Purden and former Eastenders star Daniella Westbrook, Derek Acorah is taking his paranormal investigations around the Country in search of the most intriguing and often chilling stories as told by local residents and historians.Having visited Shrewsbury in September, it is now the turn of Oswestry with Derek and his 'ghost busting' team visiting the town on November 17th & 18th to investigate some of the town's most notorious buildings, famed for decades of spooky goings on.Commenting on the new series, Kerry Masters of Living TV said, "This new series will offer elements that other programmes have never touched on with ordinary members of the public taking a starring role. This exciting new project gives paranormal fans a once in a lifetime chance to join Derek in an investigation where Derek will not only 'read' the town but will call on local historians and experts to help discover the history of the town". Oswestry has recently been celebrating its ghostly connections with a series of Guided Ghostly Tours, some of which resulted in some unexpected surprises.


Ghosts On Parade

Whilst filming in Shrewsbury this month a TV crew certainly got more that they bargained for. Or did they?Medium Derek Acorah of UK Living's 'Most Haunted' fame and his film crew were in the town to search out paranormal activity, as part of a new series called Ghost Towns.Filming took place at the Parade Shopping Centre in Shrewsbury, when doors started slamming and items on the shelves started to move!The Parade was developed when the Royal Shrewsbury Infirmary (built in 1830) was closed and converted into 30 independent shops. It is suggested that the Ghost is that of a former Matron who still insists on doors being closed, and that everything has its place - even if the shop owners have a different view. Customers have been known to arrive and then have the shop door closed on them before they can enter - hardly the Shropshire welcome they were expecting.The spirit of the Parade's roaming matron was picked up on by Derek Acorah, along with a witches den and the presence of a 'bad man' in nearby Pengwern Books.The series on Ghost Towns which will include Shrewsbury's Ghostly secrets starts on November 7th for eight weeks

Medium Derek Acorah, of UK Living's Most Haunted fame, was filming in the town over the weekend searching out paranormal activity, as part of a new series called Ghost Towns. Mel Molineux, the owner of Molineux's Gift Baskets in The Parade, who accompanied Mr Acorah on his tour of the building, said: "We were in pitch black darkness. I can't say too much but what I will say is this place is definitely haunted." She said that he had also picked up on the spirit of a matron roaming the former infirmary. The owner of Pengwern Books, John Yorke, said Mr Acorah had found a witches' den and felt the presence of a "bad man" at the top of the stairs in the shop. The series starts on November 7 for eight weeksShropshire Star : 20th September 2005
