Ghostbusters!
That's according to a recent report issued by DishTV, which recently researched the most-Googled family Halloween movie in all 50 states.
"To identify each state’s most Googled spooky movie for kids, we gathered a list of kids Halloween movies rated PG or G," the satellite TV company said. "Then, we used SEMRush to find the movies that had the highest keyword search ranking. Finally, we input the movie names into Google Trends to find each state’s most searched movie."
According to their research, the most-popular G- or PG-rated Halloween movie in the Keystone State is the 1984 classic starring Dan Akroyd, Bill Murray, Ivan Reitman, and Ernie Hudson.
