Customer Reviews

Excellent
I bought this book in August 2007, as I liked the way Derek worked on "Most Haunted" and "Ghost Towns".

You'll find out some of his amazing encounters, they really are fascinating and keep you on the edge of your seat.

It's a compulsive read as well as being very interesting. It was the fist book I'd read by Derek and I know it wouldn't be the last.

Personally it took me 24hrs to read this book as I just couldn't put it down. It's well worth the money and I've now just bought his latest which I'm about to start reading. :-)

i have watched derek acorah on most haunted and after reading tony stockwells fantastic book, thought id buy derek acorahs book. i only read half of the book. the amazing stories which were promised in this book were very short and rather boring. i was waiting for the indepth accounts of pyschic events which had happened,but never reached them. my eyes werent drooping when reading this book because i couldnt put the book down, but the total opposite: because it was rather dull. sorry derek, you seem a lovely guy, but the book was pants!
