What's most interesting, I guess, is that Mount Fuji is practically synonymous with the international image of Japan, and has been for at least a couple of centuries. It's one of the first things you think of. And at its foot lies a location which the people of the country have decided is the spiritual and symbolic and (I guess) 'psycho-social' centre of their heart of darkness. While there are haunted locations rumoured all over the world, I can't think of a similar place that is sort of a 'national' haunted park, as it were.
