Halloween is almost here. And, we’ve got you covered with funny couples costumes, costumes that look best with face masks, and more than a cartful of Beetlejuice decorations for your home. That life-size Sandworm is going to look great in your studio apartment.
But, Halloween wouldn’t be Halloween without candy. (Without it, it would be Samhain!) And, everyone has their opinions on the best Halloween candy.. and the worst. (It’s Sixlets.)
With the help of Google Trends, job hunting site Zippia gathered data to determine what each state’s favorite Halloween candy is and whether residents there prefer candy to chocolate. Turns out it’s an even split across the nation.
Does your favorite Halloween candy match your state’s? Or is it time to pack your bags and head to the land of the Circus Peanuts (that’s New Hampshire). Now excuse us while we chow down on some Brach’s Pumpkins.
