Description

'Derek Acorah's Ghost Towns' is a fully-illustrated collection of stories to tie-in with the incredible new LIVINGtv series starring Britain's best-loved medium Derek Acorah. Ghost Towns sees Derek take to the road to meet the people of Britain. Derek Acorah is coming to a town near you. This fascinating TV tie-in follows Derek's adventures up and down the country. At the heart of his show is the Ghost Truck, which moves from town to town seeking new ghostly experiences. In each episode, the team investigates four mysteries in a haunted town, which involves painstaking night vigils, midnight seances and contact with locals who have passed over to and now reside in the spirit world. His adventures include: * Bristol - why do the Odeon usherettes refuse to clean screen 3 alone? * Royston - who is the drunken spirit who haunts an old police station? Derek also knocks on the doors of unsuspecting members of the public to deliver psychic messages - will his Doorstep Divination always be welcome? Can he convince even the most hardened sceptics?
