Your State’s Favorite Scary Netflix Series

Spooky season is upon us and Halloween is almost here. But are you watching your state’s favorite horror series? These TV shows might have nothing on classic movies like Hocus Pocus, but they’re the talk of this eerie month we all love so much.

If you’re not already watching your fellow residents’ favorite show, cuddle under a blanket with a bowl of candy corn popcorn this week and watch Netflix in between handing out candy to trick-or-treaters.

The most popular spooky series on Netflix

Black Mirror

Area of peak popularity: California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Rhode Island

The people of California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Rhode Island obviously like to get creeped out about robotic bees and blackmailing anti-malware programs. Seriously, doesn’t the future of technology give you the heebie-jeebies?

The Twilight Zone

Area of peak popularity: Michigan, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia

We wonder if our friends in Michigan, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia are stuck in the twilight zone. We know the feeling. What dimension are you in?

Devilman Crybaby

Area of peak popularity: Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Mississippi, and Montana

Our neighbors of Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Mississippi, and Montana have a fascination with demons taking over the world. Or maybe they like watching Devilman save other demon-humans like himself. Either way, how do you sleep at night?

The Haunting of Hill House

Area of peak popularity: Idaho, Indiana, Missouri, and Pennsylvania

Idaho, Indiana, Missouri, and Pennsylvania residents love themselves a good horror story about a haunted house. But we were shocked to find out Georgia wasn’t on this list, the state where this frightening show takes place.

Just kidding. Actually, we took a list of the most popular and highly rated scary series you can watch on Netflix, put each show title in Google Trends, narrowed it down by state, and let Google work its magic. Out came the results of which horror series was most popular in each state.
