The angle
A directory tells you where. FrightTour tells you how to spend the night.
That makes the brand useful before, during, and after the ticket purchase—and gives city guides a reason to exist beyond another list of links.
01
Verified anchor events
Start with a current official event, then build outward. Dates and prices should always be confirmed with the venue.
02
Group-fit planning
Date night, friends, or older kids: the same haunt can create a very different evening.
03
Routes, not rankings
Travel time, intensity, food, and recovery matter more than a generic “top 10.”
04
A monetizable next step
Featured routes, ticket referrals, hotel packages, and sponsored city guides can grow without paywalling the planner.
