But how does Washington stack up against the rest of the country?

Which State In The U.S. Is The Spookiest?

Whether Casino.ca did some type of ritual, used an Ouija board, or just crammed data from Ghosts Of America reports and different social media posts, we don’t really know (okay, it was the 3rd one), but what we do know is where Washington sits on the spooky scale.

The Scores and Spookiest States Of America

With a score of 57, we are much scarier (at least when it comes to the UN-alive folks) than people in Oregon (42), but not as scary as California (72) or Nevada (60). We can’t hold a spooky candle to folks in Texas (77), and after looking at the full breakdown, it is no wonder that the 1987 hit Ghostbusters was set in New York! The spookiest state in the country with a score of (81).
