Britain's mysterious triangle

What is it about Britain? From The BBC:

Tourism leaders in Cornwall are hoping to cash in on a new survey which has found Cornwall to be the spookiest place in the country. The survey has identified an area, that includes Penzance, which it is calling the Cornwall Triangle. Jamaica Inn, Bodmin Jail and the Dolphin Inn are just some of the haunted sites found there. South West Tourism welcomed the report saying it will help add to the overall mystique of the area. Chief executive Malcolm Bell said: "I'm sure it will add to the attractiveness of the area.
And The Sun:
FIRST there was the legendary Bermuda Triangle, an area of ocean where ships and planes mysteriously vanished without trace. Now paranormal researchers have identified three more treacherous areas a lot closer to home — the Penzance, the York and the Norfolk Triangles. The Penzance Triangle is a 226-square-mile area of Cornwall between Land’s End, St Ives and the Helford Estuary. Here you are twice as likely to spot a UFO and three times more likely to see a ghost, than in the rest of the UK, according to research by Sky Travel. The region has the most sightings of unexplained phenomena in the country. The researchers, led by paranormal expert Lionel Fanthorpe, spent months collecting documented cases of UFO and ghost sightings, crop circles and mysterious creatures, then plotted them on a map. The boffins, commissioned by Sky Travel for their Mysterious World series, were stunned by the concentration of supernatural activity in the Penzance Triangle.
