Psychic Derek Acorah will attempt to contact Jackson's spirit.

In one of the more bizarre media events surrounding Michael Jackson's death, on Friday British television network Sky 1 will broadcast a live séance with the singer's spirit.

In a special "intimate and unique" hour-long event — dubbed
"Michael Jackson: The Live Séance" — British psychic Derek Acorah will
attempt to contact Jackson's spirit, with the hope of giving the King
of Pop's fans the opportunity "to connect with their hero one last
time."

"There is an insatiable appetite to find out more about Michael Jackson," Stuart Murphy, Sky 1's director of programs, told Yahoo UK
earlier this month. "He was an extraordinary figure and the curiosity
surrounding his life — and his death — stretches well beyond fans of
his music."

Just how Acorah —best known to British audiences for his
long-running paranormal TV series "Ghost Towns" — plans on contacting
Jackson's spirit is a closely guarded secret, but according to Kirsty
Howell, a publicist for Sky 1, the séance will be held "on an island
... in a secret location familiar to Jackson" before an audience of
fans and friends, and will feature mementos from his life.

"We have chosen genuine Michael Jackson fans and people who
knew him throughout his life to take part in this event," Howell added.
"Derek will also have a personal item from Michael Jackson, and will
invite everyone to sit quietly and channel positive thoughts ... he
can't force Michael to appear, but he will try inviting his spirit by
creating welcoming environment."

Howell added that Sky 1 was aware that some Jackson fans might
object to the program, but that it's not meant to be exploitive.
Rather, she views it as a tribute to the man and his legacy.
"There are so many Michael Jackson fans out there, people who
celebrate his life and his music, and this show is another way for them
to connect with him," she said. "We're huge fans of Michael Jackson,
and this is a celebration of his life."

"Michael Jackson: The Live Séance" will air at 10 p.m. GMT on
Sky 1, and is the second half of a progam examining the singer's life
and death. From 9-10 p.m., the network will air "Michael Jackson: The
Search for His Spirit," which, according to Sky's program guide, "takes
fans on a journey celebrating the life of the troubled, but talented
star." American psychic Bobby Marchesso and Jackson's "Thriller" video
co-star, Ola Ray, are also featured on the show.

That's all I can say!

whoa!!What???!!!!

I wonder whose soul they're going to find

Yes, I saw it advertised earlier. It will obviously be fake as we know he isn't dead eh? How can the producers allow this sort of thing? They will have to stage some sort of "happening" or it will be as boring as watching paint dry!
I do not believe in this sort of thing anyway but will probably watch just to see how far they will go to fool people. It is quite sad and sick though as there are genuine mourners who have been fans for years who think Michael is dead.

The producers are all *rse-souls! Get it? Read it quick. Dont like swearing but could not resist- the first letter is A.

All want to make money with MJ, I want that this psychic one says to me as it is the greater prize of the lottery

yeh this seance thing is ridiculous. it's so disrespectful i don't know how in hell they got permission from the family to do it!?

''Acorah, whose high profile on screen séances have to date been restricted to historical and mythical figures will lead proceedings in Michael Jackson: The Live Seance; an hour long live special from a secret location familiar to, and previously inhabited by, Jackson and where the famed psychic medium will attempt to contact the music legend.''

'secret location'? aren't all of his homes pretty obvious?

bleeh also wasn't Derek ranked the worst psychic medium ever?

the whole concept of the show makes me upset and angry. but i HAVE to watch it...live

whoever's watching don't forget to share. i'd love to know the story!

wait, what day does it come on?

Geez!! I wouldn't believe this rubbish even if I thought he really was dead.

Looking forward to your nasty article.

Wow, I am absolutely shocked and mortified about this one.
I've never ever seen or heard anything like this before.
And on MTV?

HMMMM...
I dunno......
Kind of freaks me out a bit......
I look forward to MJLove's article.

I am seriously fascinated as to see how Derek Acorah (who I wouldn't trust as far as I could throw him!) is going to contact someone who isn't even dead!

But, got my popcorn ready and sky + is recording it! Shall be a fun night..

BRING IT ON DEREK!

Oh I guarantee he'll contact him..don't despair, the guy is a fraud! I saw him "channel" before and it's as fake as can be LOL

I used to see him on Most Haunted here in the States.....ALL of those ghost shows are fake, but Im so addicted to them!!

Derek is as fake as you can get.

I REALLY wanna hear about this one!!

Me too LOL
I wonder if he'll grab himself while he's "channeling" Michael ROFL! Now that wouldn't surprise me I agree, he is as fake as you can get. Is he even on over here anymore?

Did everyone hear about the "TWEANCE THINGY, IT WAS ON TWITTER AND I FORGET WHO EXCLY BUT SOMEONE WAS IN CONTACT WITH MICHAEL'S SPIRIT"?

Well I missed it and only read 1 or 2 tweets on it and the person contacting him said Michael was saying he was not murdered.

There are so many people that say they are talking with Michael's spirit..

When Michael comes back, everyone knows that they were not right

Well I think one group or the other is gonna feel stupid in the end, believer's vs Not believer's.

I would like to say this though:

If Michael is dead, NOTICE USE OF IF, I don't think it is appropriate to do it in public and much less on tv or radio. Dunno IMO

I will not be watching this. Derek Acorah is a fake but if he claims to have contacted Michael and then Michael comes back. he'll look like an @ss and be exposed as a fake - again - lol!

ROFL! Hopefully your boss didn't see..he'd wonder just what is going on with you today
OMG, I had a disturbing thought..what if Derek tries to moonwalk? eeeeekkkkk OH and how is he going to do the voice? This should be entertaining..I better get some Depends in case I pee my pants laughing LOL

I don't know if this would help in anyway, call me insane or whatever you would want to call me. I am hopeless and desperate to find out if Michael is alive or not. I gathered my means and hired the most well known medium here in the philippines, the best possible medium my money could buy and yes I've gone that far modesty aside but the medium is authentic with a very credible background and fellow filipinos knew him but I agreed not to share his name. and too you guys I would like to share the good news this medium told me. THERE IS NO MICHAEL JACKSON, THE SINGER/ENTERTAINER/KING OF POP IN THE SPIRIT WORLD, YET.

Hey suzzie I believe you! Because my parents once called upon a medium to 'speak' with my grandfather. and everything the medium spoke was like how my grand dad did. It was very real. He asked about me. so i believe you suzzie! =D

Keep the faith!

TO : Rowdy angel

As all here, we are not sure if I live THROUGH MJ this or dead man, I in the personal thing do not believe in psychic, there is some person here that it creates?

Ugh i cant find it on my tv guide. Is it supposed to be on mtv or another station?

Sky 1.

I am sorry to have to admit that I skipped the posts, no offence though.

Just wanted to add: I wonder whoms spirit he will contact since Michael's spirit is neither lost, gone, far away nor the one of a dead person.

I am inviting Michael's spirit as well and too bad, I don't need any channelor. LOL
I open my heart - this is it.

L.O.V.E.

"There is an insatiable appetite to find out more about Michael Jackson."
This I sign with my blood. The only trustworthy sentence in the article.

aw, i dont have that station.
so you guys have to let me know how it is!

those who watch please keep us updated! thanks! =)

I didn't watch it but I did see news on it on Google and apparantely Derek contacted MJ and MJ told him he's only just starting to settle into the afterlife and he's very unhappy about where he's buried - he wanted to be buried next to Marilyn Monroe.

What a load of horse s**t

gosh, that guy is soo stupid... I mean, doesn't he understand in his stupid head that people don't, just DON'T believe that Michael would say that?! Even non-believers of the hoax don't believe that...

When Michael dies someday, and somebody would talk to him, he wouldn't say that he want to lay next to marlyn monroe. He would say that he loves us all and stuff

stupid a$$!!

had to laugh is horse s**t the same as bull s**t?

LOL@ishealive.

Hi everyone,

I'm carolann from the uk, I'm new here, thankyou for letting me join your site.
I watched derek acorah's programme on friday 6th november in the uk. Can I say that I firmly believe in the spirit world, but this programme was the biggest load of c**p I have ever seen, it was so embarassing, normally I like derek but what he was thinking of I don't know unless he was well paid, another thing about the programme is there were 4 fans (3 males and 1 female) derek gave the 3 males messages from michael and left the female out. ( no-way would he ever have done that ).

Also I have to say congrats to you all for your hard work and dedication since 25th june. I hope michael still reads these threads if so I'm here to help in any way I can.

love always.
