However, Acorah did in fact (possibly accidentally, on his Twitter account) foresee his own demise in early 2020 with the words "I hope to be back within the next couple of days when I will be giving messages from spirit for the new year. Have a wonderful day everybody and much love to you all! X." [1] This is vandalism! Cpqueeley89 ( talk) 13:09, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
The only source I can find on how he picked this name is from his obituary in the Guardian, which merely states he got it from a Dutch ancestor. Can we find out the original quote or perhaps some other form of clarification? I'm a bit suspicious because "Acorah" doesn't even remotely resemble a Dutch word. Of course there's always the chance he made that story up. Prinsgezinde ( talk) 13:04, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
He also claimed to speak with the dead, so he may not have been the most reliable source. Rustygecko ( talk) 17:16, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
Should it not read "claimed to be a spiritual medium"? Rustygecko ( talk) 17:12, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
