| According to a report there have been more ghost sightings in Britain than in the past 25 years , there have been over a 1000 reports of demonic actvity in the last 25 years with Yorkshire being the most active county in the country .
Lionel Fanthorpe began researching into these incidents by studying reports, websites and taking his own reports , alone in Yorkshire there have been 74 reports of demonic activity also including incubus and succubus incidents, funnily enough Devon has been rated second in the study with over 57 accounts of which in some ways is not suprising, Dartmoor being a place where there have been allot of sightings in the past 25 years, third in the country is Wiltshire which seems to be a hotspot for phantom dogs otherwise known as Hell hounds.

| Not being biased or anything i have chosen Devon , i just think that its the most haunted place in the country for me , with places like Dartmoor and all the reports also not forgetting widdicombe and the famous church haunting, there are just so many reports of hauntings in devon it's hard to keep up .

| Ive gone with Yorkshire, i seem to always hear or read about something or other up that way with Devon definatly close behind, Do you think the reason theres been more reports is due to things like the internet and ease of access to report things like that? ... Just a passing thought.

| Yeha that could be a good reason for the sudden increase in reported incidents popping up , but i could also be that allot of people have been made more aware of the paranormal through programs such as Most haunted and TAPS and so on , even though i don't agree with the concept of Most Haunted we have allot to thank them for over the last ten years .
