15 Spooky Movies Filmed in Oregon & Washington to Get You Into The Halloween Spirit
Halloween is just under a week away now and to help you get in the spirit we have created a list of fifteen spooky movies that were filmed in Oregon and/or Washington State for your viewing pleasure. Watching scary movies is a great way to set the stage for the week of Halloween and the best part is that you can enjoy them all from the comfort of your home, while still seeing some beautiful landscape shots that you may recognize. This list is in no particular order. Some movies listed are kid friendly, while others are not. Some movies you have probably seen and others that you may not have heard of. This list is far from all-inclusive. The gorgeous Pacific Northwest has been used as the backdrop for an amazing amount of films and television shows. If you are interested in what movies were filmed in Oregon, we recommend visiting https://oregonfilm.org and for films shot in Washington, visit https://www.imdb.com/search/title-text/?location=washington
