Halloween's Approaching, Here Are The Top Creepy Spots in MA

'Tis the season, Berkshire County residents. What? You say you're not feeling suitably spooked or creeped out with Halloween just around the corner? Well, if you don't mind doing a little traveling, the Commonwealth offers plenty of sights to get you in the right mood.

Recently, BetMassachusetts took a look at all the UFO and ghost sightings across the country, analyzed and tabulated the data, and came up with the locations that have the greatest chance of spotting something spooky.

By combining the ghost sightings and the UFO sightings, the BetMassachusetts team came up with the 10 most supernatural destinations in Massachusetts. Without further ado, here they are:

Boston (Beantown far and away led the pack in terms of UFO sightings with 159!)
Lowell
New Bedford
Worcester
Springfield
Attleboro
Plymouth
Brockton
Chicopee
North Attleboro

Unfortunately, Massachusetts as a state did not make the top 10 list of most supernatural states. Here they are, according to BetMassachusetts:

California
Texas
Florida
Washington
New York
Ohio
Pennsylvania
Illinois
Michigan
Arizona

There's plenty of cool info to look at including why certain towns and states ended up where they did in the rankings. Check it out at BetMassachusetts' website here. Or you can visit Only In Your State's website here (it even has a section devoted to the "Bloody Pit" otherwise known as the Hoosac Tunnel in North Adams) and then, go ahead and plan a spooky road trip!

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.
