Derek
Acorah's family discovered his enhanced
abilities of clairaudience at the tender
age of six, after Acorah relayed a message
to his Grandmother from his Grandfather,
a man who died five years before Acorah's
birth. But Acorah's first passion as he
grew older was soccer. By the age of 13,
he was training with legendary Liverpool
manager, Bill Shankly and was signed as
a professional at 15. After he married and
fathered two children, Acorah continued
his professional soccer career in Australia,
where he played for four years. A knee injury
cut his career short and homesickness brought
Acorah back to Liverpool, England.
Acorah's enhanced Psi abilities were always
with him, therefore on his return to England
in the early 1980s, he became a professional,
full time spirit medium, based at his home
city of Liverpool. Since that time, his
amazingly accurate work as a professional
clairvoyant in cases for both the private
sector and police agencies (criminal cases),
has propelled him into more public ventures.
In recent years, Acorah achieved international
success with his television, radio and personal
appearances across Europe, the Middle East
and the U.S. By invitation in October 1997,
Acorah participated in a Middle East tour
that took him to Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the
desert location of Al Ain. His time is sought
after by celebrities on different continents.
He has undertaken phone consultations for
those in need as far away from Liverpool
as India, Australia, New Zealand and the
United States. Acorah became a member of
the ISPR in December 1998.
Acorah's groundbreaking work on the two
television series, Predictions with Derek
Acorah and Psychic Livetime, won him the
British equivalent of the American Daytime
Emmy Award. His first book The Psychic World
of Derek Acorah, entered its 4th printing
within 3 months of its initial September
1999 release. In March 1999, Acorah participated
in the ISPR field investigations featured
in the two award winning documentaries,
ISPR Investigates Ghosts of England (Telly
Award - 1999) and ISPR Investigates Ghosts
of Belgrave Hall (Best Horror Documentary
Award - 2002 Screamfest L.A. Film Festival
/ Hollywood). Both documentaries are distributed
around the world in several languages and
are utilized as a teaching tool in universities
like UCLA and USC.
During the filming of ISPR Investigates
Ghosts of England, the entire ISPR team
was moved at the plight of Mr. Nicholas
Geary, a recently bereaved Liverpool man.
The team was even more moved when teammate
Acorah decided to conduct a live stage performance
with all proceeds going to Mr. Geary. The
May 9, 1999 event was a resounding success.
In July 2001, Acorah shot the pilot of Most
Haunted (LivingTV). Derek's last appearance
on Most Haunted was the Live production
from East London for Halloween 2005. He
started his new series Ghost Towns in November
2005 on Living TV.
Acorah resides with his wife Gwen, a German
Shepherd and four cats.
