The spike in search traffic for Harley Quinn and Joker costumes is likely a result of the 2016 live-action film “Suicide Squad,” which stars Margot Robbie and Jared Leto as the villainous couple.
According to the data, Quinn is the most searched costume in Atlanta, Austell, Decatur, Doraville and Smyrna. The Joker proved more popular in Dacula, East Point, Grayson, Mableton and Norcross.
Searches such as “dog” in East Cobb and Kennessaw, and “cat” in Clarkston could mean that people are looking to dress up as the furry animals. It could also mean they’re looking for costumes for their pets, not themselves.
Other interesting costume searches includes “Rag doll” (Chamblee), Pikachu (Candler McAfee) and Care Bears (LaFayette).
