Ohio ranks No. 1 as scariest state for Halloween attractions, according to new study

Congratulations, Ohioans. We're living in the most terrifying state in the country. 

If you're eerily excited about the Halloween season, you may crow in delight knowing the Buckeye State is considered the spookiest in the nation, according to a new study by My Baggage.  

My Baggage, a door-to-door delivery service, compiled a list of the five scariest states based on the number of spine-chilling attractions within their borders, among other criteria. Ohio sits atop the list with 34 places that would make Camp Crystal Lake (think "Friday the 13th" film) look like a vacation destination.  

The remaining list includes Indiana with 28, Pennsylvania with 25, Kentucky at 19 and Georgia with 17.

And out of the 252 haunted houses in the nation, My Baggage placed Canton's Factory of Terror Haunted House as the eighth-most frightening site

So, if you're one of the 36 million Americans expected to visit a haunted house before Oct. 31, look no further than the "Boo State" for some top-notch thrills.
