What Horror Movie Is Your State Obsessed With?

favorite horror movies

It’s Halloween season, which means one thing: eating candy corn until you throw up. Once you’re done with that, though, it’s time to watch horror movies. But have you ever wondered what horror movies other people in your area are watching? And what about places all over the U.S.? What the heck are they watching in Michigan, for instance? Using data compiled from Rotten Tomatoes and other sources, we now know which horror movie each individual state is obsessed with.

Streaming Observer has done the dark lord’s work and compiled a list of each state’s favorite horror movie. Here’s how they compiled the data:

Using data from Rotten Tomatoes, proprietary Amazon MTurk surveying, and other public sources, we compiled a list of the most popular horror movies of all time. Then, we partnered with Mindnet Analytics and used Google Trends data to determine which horror movie each state was most obsessed with relative to other states.

The results are interesting. For one thing, some movies –  The Silence of the Lambs, Shaun of the Dead, and The Exorcist, for example – rank as #1 in multiple states. And certain states tend to gravitate towards horror films set in their specific locales. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is big in Texas, for instance.

It’s an overall fun list, and it’s also made up almost entirely of big, popular, studio-driven horror. There are a few exceptions, though. Tennessee, for instance, seems to love A24’s indie horror film The Witch. Illinois is really into Ti West’s slow-burn The House of the Devil. Wyoming can’t get enough of The Babadook. And California loves the Spanish horror film The Orphanage.
