Celebrity psychic Derek Acorah will star on Living TV’s Paranormal Egypt, which is scheduled to air on September 4th. According to The Sun Online, Derek had a harrowing experience in the bowels of one of the Great Pyramid that nearly cost him his life.

“It took me completely by surprise, and it wasn’t a pleasant one,” Derek said.

“We were filming in the main chamber of the Great Pyramid and I could tell there was a lot of spiritual activity going on.

“Forget Most Haunted, this was a stronger force than anything I’d ever encountered before.

“I heard something approaching and then ‘bang’, it hit me hard in the face and I started choking because I couldn’t draw a breath.

“There was a paranormal substance or powder that went across my mouth and into my nostrils, basically suffocating me.

“Thankfully the symptoms subsided but then I felt really sick and had to rest until the nausea passed.

“I’ve no idea what the entity was, but it’s obvious something didn’t want me there in the Great Pyramid.”

Fans of Living TV will get to watch this scene in its entirety. Another segment of the show involves Acorah establishing that the Curse of the Pharaohs was a myth. While I forget the names of the scientists who debunked the curse as a myth (years ago), I remember them explaining how the Egyptians would bring fruit into the tombs as part of the burial ceremony. The fruit had rotted, sending spores and bacteria into the air for those archaeologists to breathe. It will be interesting to see what Acorah has to say.
