  1. The Bermuda Triangle, a 500,000 square mile area in the North Atlantic, is infamous for unexplained disappearances of ships and aircraft. Theories suggest a “dark portal” causing these events. #bermudatriangle #portal connectparanormal.net/2026/05/

  2. Ah yes, the classic "solving a mystery in ten seconds" 🕵️‍♂️, except the only thing you discover is your own IP address 🚫. Apparently, #ResearchGate thinks letting you in is as dangerous as the Bermuda Triangle 🌐✈️.

    The mysterious disappearances/incidents within the Bermuda Triangle include Flight 19, USS Cyclops and the ship Ellen Austin.

    Is there a scientific explanation to these mysteries or is the scientific community still debating?

  4. The Bermuda Triangle, spanning 500,000 square miles in the Atlantic, is notorious for mysterious disappearances of ships and aircraft. Theories range from paranormal portals to scientific phenomena like magnetic anomalies and rogue waves. #Bermudatriangle connectparanormal.net/2025/12/

  5. 🔍 Ah yes, the classic tale of Flight 19—because who doesn't love a good #mystery cooked up from a technological hiccup? 🌐 Apparently, the real Bermuda Triangle was the browser settings menu all along. Spoiler alert: #JavaScript saves the day once again! 🍪✨

  6. Oh look, another soul-baring blog post, where the author contemplates the #mysteries #of #time, #mortality, and the profound impact of "I'm too late" #calls at #midnight 🕒📞. Maybe next week we'll get to read about how their favorite pair of socks mysteriously vanished into the Bermuda Triangle of #laundry 🧦✨.

  7. #Oxford's #BermudaTriangle: According to my map, the sides of the triangle are roughly 500 metres long, meaning that at no place in #OxfordNorth you're more than 160 metres away from a very busy A road. Most places will be basically adjacent to one or two of them. And there are 500 new homes in that motorway hell landscape.

  9. Oh look, another riveting tale of nonexistent documentation: Debian 13's release notes must've been so groundbreaking, they vanished into the void! 🕵️‍♂️ Maybe they're hidden in the Bermuda Triangle alongside clarity on US time zones and Postgres updates. 🌪️🚫

  10. #GreatWhiteSharks split into 3 populations 200,000 years ago and never mixed again — except for one hybrid found in #BermudaTriangle
    Scientists found 3 great white #shark populations that congregate in different #oceans and do not interbreed. Their separation may have implications for conservation.
    Unclear why populations split in first place. Researchers suspect drop in #sealevel and changes in ocean currents and temperature created biogeographical barrier for sharks.

  11. The Triangle Trope

    The most popular shape in the paranormal scene these days is a “triangle”. Triangles are hip, not square. Every state wants their own “Triangle”. Creating a triangle is just a little bit harder than drawing a line, which is two points. Adding one more point and two more lines then, BAM! You have your own supernatural portal/window area.

    I’ve done the time explaining the origin and history of paranormal vortex areas, which are often triangular. Of course, the most famous triangle is the one with the points of Miami, Puerto Rico and Bermuda. You know the one! Been there, done that.

    Triangles are great because they are so easy to draw and, suddenly, you have defined an area with a catchy name and instant spooky cred. A few months ago, I started to create a list of the so-called Triangle areas around the world that people have defined based on the seemingly localized association with strange activity. Loren Coleman’s Mysterious America book carried on Ivan Sanderson’s idea of vile vortices by promoting triangular(ish) areas where any and all claims were logged related to UFOs, disappearances, strange creatures, and high incidents of crime, accidents or violence, and tied to the pointy formation.

    The aim of paranormalists is to suggest that a geographical area, with what they see as a higher than usual number of strange events, may mean that the earth or land there is a “gateway” or a “window” area – to what is not clear. Creatures crawling through portals or emanations of evil energy, I guess. It’s also not clear how that land inside the boundaries is different from areas outside of it, or what could explain the alleged geographical anomaly.

    Arguments for Paranormal Triangle areas are all extremely weak. There are no statistical studies that show that verified incidents are occurring in these areas are due to an unknown cause. They are not compared to other similarly populated areas as an experimental control. But, simpler than that, linking unrelated events into a given narrative is contrived and a form of pattern-seeking. It only takes the suggestion of a “Triangle” or haunted/cursed region for plenty more people to offer their stories and claims, which reinforces the narrative, and so on. In the case of certain Triangle areas, such as the Bridgewater Triangle in Massachusetts, the local lore became so popular, and “Triangle” as a paranormal buzz word was so successful, that it shaped public perception of the area. Paranormal seekers went looking for unusual things, and so they found them – like x-shaped tree branches or stacks of rocks, mundane things were given special meaning if they occurred within the “Triangle”. Well, it didn’t even have to be “within”. Just being proximate to the Triangle area is enough to up the strangeness quotient. I recently watched the Dogman Triangle promotional programming and was reminded that “Triangle” is such a handy branding term. Everyone knows triangles on a map are spooky; you can play fast and loose with actual locations.

    So, far, I’ve started peering into the claims of 13 such Triangles, though there are many lesser known or quasi-“Triangle” areas with more appearing every year. Out of the 13, notably, 5 of those also begin with a ‘B’ like Bermuda. Coincidence? I think not.

    When media is created to amplify these Triangle stories, not only do unrelated accounts get grouped together, but exaggeration intensifies as the re-tellers add new drama and make up details. These new bits then get copy-pasted to other paranormal themed media and spread. It’s impossible to shut down that process with facts and reason.

    I do hope the trends peter out because giving such places a manufactured horror aura (houra/horra?) ultimately hurts the local scene. Most of these stories are not verified, some clearly did not occur at all. And, they are too often spookified and promoted at the expense of a real victim of a non-supernatural crime or accident. The location ends up drawing in some no-goodniks who attempt to live out the ostensible experience.

    I aim to write more about these areas, so stayed tuned. (How about subscribing?) But for now, if you see the Triangle trope, feel free to roll your eyes. It’s apt.

  13. The latest Historical Blindness Podcast on the #BermudaTriangle was fascinating. It asserts that many of the details often quoted about the disappearance of #Flight19 come from a fictionalised account of the event. Apparently, the official investigation reports none of the famously cited comments from the patrol leader who, incidentally, had twice before become lost & ditched his aircraft in the sea. The mysterious disappearance stories were apparently debunked decades ago, but the explanations aren’t as exciting as the thought of something otherworldly going on, so have received very little attention. As so often, rational, unexciting explanations don’t sell books or gain advertising interest for TV shows, so the more exciting, but probably incorrect, stories hold sway.
    I must admit this is the first time I’d heard the alternative explanations.

  15. Day 29: A song you remember from your childhood.

    A song from childhood? How about the first song I have a recollection of?

    Playing on a radio whilst my Mum was in the kitchen, I couldn't have been more than 3 years old, and this is what I remember:

    "Bermuda Triangle" by Barry Manilow

    open.spotify.com/track/2ua33fB

    #30DaySongChallenge #music #spotify #BarryManilow #BermudaTriangle

    P.S. It might have been "Copacabana", memory is frail, but "Bermuda Triangle" came out when I was 3, so it lines up.

  16. The Bermuda Triangle, a notorious area in the Atlantic Ocean where many ships and planes have disappeared, may have a natural explanation. Scientists have found that the region is prone to rogue waves, which are massive and unpredictable waves that can reach up to 30 meters high. These waves could easily overwhelm and sink vessels without a trace.
