Pennsylvania (Gettysburg), Maryland (Antietam), and Kentucky - to name three.
Antietam was the first major battle during the Civil War that actually turned the South away from attacking the North. Very few Southern forays into the North occurred after Antietam. The last, Gettysburg, ended in disaster for the South.
The two major battles that helped turn the war around for the North in 1862 were the Battle of Antietam and the Battle of Gettysburg. The Battle of Antietam was particularly significant as it was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history and ended Confederate General Robert E. Lee's first invasion of the Union. The Battle of Gettysburg was a pivotal three-day battle that resulted in a Union victory and marked the turning point of the war, leading to a decline in Confederate morale and ultimately the Union's control of the South.
An estimated total of 270,073 people where killed those five battles.

Previous answer: "the battle of bull run, bloody ally, and bull run 2" The three worst by casualties would be Antietam, Gettysburg, and Chickamauga. As far as just being horrible, I would propose 1 - Spotsylvania Courthouse, The Wilderness, and Chancellorsville (with Cold Harbor and Fredericksburg runners-up. Spotsylvania featured nearly 20 hours of bloody hand-to-hand combat at the Bloody Angle in mud and rain at horrible cost to both sides. Both the Wilderness and Chancellorsville had terrible casualties, but the death of the wounded in wildfires in the dense brush is particularly awful. In response to the above, 1st Bull Run was a farce. I think by "bloody ally" is meant the Bloody Alley at Antietam, which battle does deserve consideration. 2nd Bull Run was bad; there was a dreadful short-range stand-up shootout that lasted at least two hours and resulted in one of every three men engaged being shot. But I think on balance the "worst" would be those listed above.
No.1 was certainly Gettysburg, and Antietam would have been another. Let me guess Chickamauga, Petersburg and Atlanta for the other three.
