I had no idea that so many creepy and fun movies were filmed here in Massachusetts.

Get Ready ready to do a little day-tripping to see these! Or maybe you have already been to some of these places.

The First on my list is.

In One scene Nicholson is blown through the streets of the town and into a church, that’s the First Parish Church in downtown Cohasset.

Maybe Jaws isn’t your regular horror film, but you still get a little freaked out when they’re facing the shark.

Medfield State Hospital in Medfield the movie Shutter Island/ 45 Hospital Rd., Medfield

The ever-so-creepy Shutter Island was filmed on the grounds of the abandoned Medfield State Hospital where scenes from the Martin Scorsese psychological thriller were filmed. You can still check out the grounds yourself, They’re publicly accessible.

“The Crucible,” Salem

It is not your normal scary movie it centers around the Salem Witch Trial. A friend of mine was in this movie as one of the townspeople.

A newer movie that had a stellar cast and a mystery murder.

Knives Out/ 259 Massapoag Ave., North Easton

LOOK: How Halloween has changed in the past 100 years

Stacker compiled a list of ways that Halloween has changed over the last 100 years, from how we celebrate it on the day to the costumes we wear trick-or-treating. We’ve included events, inventions, and trends that changed the ways that Halloween was celebrated over time. Many of these traditions were phased out over time. But just like fake blood in a carpet, every bit of Halloween’s history left an impression we can see traces of today.
