How much do you like your horror movies?

Here at ForeverGeek, we have our fair share of horror coverage – mostly thanks to Remy as yours truly is a little jumpy when it comes to this genre. With Halloween around the corner, however, I thought it but timely to share something (sort of) scary – the scariest states in the US.

The US Census Bureau (or whichever government agency knows measures these things) may not agree with the data, but the movies have spoken.

In the infographic below, you will find the top 5 scariest places. At the bottom, we have a tie: Maine and Massachusetts, thanks to Re-Animator, Jaws, The Haunting, Carrie, Dark Shadows, and Pet Sematary.

Care to give #1 a guess?

The infographic also lists the monsters that show up the most across the country, as well as the movements of those who like to travel. After all, if we can move from place to place, why can’t creepy creatures do the same?
