Acorah began his career on TV at Granada in 1996. In 2001 he moved to Haunted Truths. In 2017 he starred on Celebrity Big Brother.

After his 2005 departure from Most Haunted, Acorah filmed a one-off special for LivingTV, Derek Acorah’s Quest for Guy Fawkes followed by Derek Acorah’s Ghost Towns with Ruggie Media.

In November 2009 Acorah went global after recording Michael Jackson: The Search for His Spirit, in which he was shown attempting to contact the singer’s spirit. This was hugely controversial and became voted one of the worst (but most watched) programmes in history.
