To see what Arizona locals are planning to wear for Halloween this year, BetArizona.com - home to all things Arizona sports betting - used Google Trends to find the top 10 most searched Halloween costumes. The search period was filtered to a 30-day search period within Arizona on October 1, 2024.
As you'll see below, The Grand Canyon State will see a handful of colorful movie and television characters walking the streets on Oct. 31, with some classic costumes mixed in as well.
Rank | Costume | Search Interest Score |
1 | Deadpool | 35 |
2 | Beetlejuice | 32 |
3 | Witch | 31 |
4 | Wednesday Addams | 29 |
5 | Batman | 27 |
6 | Spider-Man | 25 |
7 | Pirate | 24 |
8 | Clown | 23 |
9 | Princess | 21 |
10 | Vampire | 16 |
Taking the top spots for Arizona Halloween costumes are a couple of characters who have helped drive the box office boon in 2024, with Deadpool (No. 1) and Beetlejuice (No. 2) leading the way.
The Deadpool character has taken off ever since star Ryan Reynolds took the wise-cracking villain to new heights. Earlier this year, the third installment in the series "Deadpool and Wolverine" saw Reynolds team up with Hugh Jackman of X-Men fame. Together, they helped the film gross over $1.3 billion at the box office.
Meanwhile, Beetlejuice had a redemption story of his own. Tim Burton's "Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice," the sequel to the 1988 cult classic, has dominated the box office since its release over three weeks ago. Thanks to the return of Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder, plus newcomers like Jenna Ortega and Willem Dafoe, Beetlejuice is once again top of mind in pop culture, so expect to see a few of the afterlife ghosts on Halloween this year.
