			The series drew a mixed response. Writing shortly after the series began broadcasting, one contemporary reviewer found the pairing of Dunlop's historical presenting style and Acorah's psychic claims an awkward fit for the subject matter, contrasting it unfavourably with the more straightforwardly ghost-hunting format of Acorah's earlier television work such as ''[[Most Haunted]]'' and ''Derek Acorah's Ghost Towns''.<ref>{{cite web \|title=Paranormal Egypt \|url=https://www.adambowie.com/blog/2007/10/paranormal_egyp/ \|website=adambowie.com}}</ref> The series holds a low aggregate audience rating on retrospective streaming listings.<ref>{{cite web \|title=Where to Watch Paranormal Egypt (2007) TV Show Online \|url=https://watch.plex.tv/show/paranormal-egypt \|website=Plex}}</ref>
