Well this page will hopefully answer all of your questions & give you a better idea of what we do. FrightTour is an annual tour in search of the scariest haunted houses, mazes, cornfields and hayrides in the Northeast. During the later portion of September and the entire month of October we scream at a comprised list of hand selected haunted attractions code named “FRIGHTS”. Then just like a tour
schedule each FRIGHT is visited on a specific date. During our visit we are thrown into the mayhem just like the rest while sampling each attraction. After our hopefully, screaming visit we post a review of our experience and determine the appropriate FRIGHT RATING. What is a “Fright Rating”? A Fright Rating is an official FrightTour rating that is determined after we have sampled the FRIGHT. Fright Ratings range from 1 to 5 FRIGHTS. The higher the score the better, meaning you need to get yourself there! These ratings are shown below:
So you now know what FrightTour is about. However, you might be wondering why we do it? What is a "Side Fright"? Throughout the year you might come across a review for a haunted attraction that we brand as a "Side Fright". Considering our Annual FrightTour only showcases haunted attractions located within in the Northeast we cannot add these locations to our tour... However, we will never experience a local attraction that isn't part of our annual tour. We want to make sure each location is brand new to us and receives a fresh review. Do you review Theme Parks? At first the site catered to just theme parks like Kings Dominion, Six Flags Great Adventure & Dorney Park. However, after three years we noticed that the corporate overhang of these major establishments limited the scenarios & overall execution of the event. Therefore, we switched our focus from theme parks to those attractions housed at run down buildings like Terror Behind the Walls, cornfields like Field of Terror and deep woodlands like Valley of Fear. We immediately noticed a large following and struggled with our overall image for a year or two but finally decided to cater to only the Northeast considering there are a fair amount of FRIGHTS in the region. What is our main goal? Before FrightTour was created we spent countless hours combing through numerous sites for the best screams during Halloween. However, we were always plagued with the question, “How can the owners of these sites know what is the best if the site caters to a national audience?” There is no possible way they could sample every haunted attraction in the United States. Usually the FRIGHTS listed as the best of the best weren't so and we were left with empty pockets and perfectly clear voices. So we set out to provide everyone with the truthful information regarding the best places for a scream during Halloween. Our reviews are truthful but in a respectful tone. If we weren't impressed, we are not afraid to post just that. We all know screaming in a haunted house can cost you anywhere from $15 to $65. So why not make it worth the money spent by helping you decide where to spend your money!
