The biggest weighted factor is The Scare Factor&#8217;s official reviews from their Scream Teams. Each review ranks a haunt on 7 categories with a score of 1 &#8211; 10:<\/p><ul><li>Cast<\/li><li>Costuming<\/li><li>Customer Service<\/li><li>Immersion<\/li><li>Special Effects<\/li><li>&#8220;Scare Factor&#8221;<\/li><li>Entertainment &amp; Value<\/li><\/ul><p>Each review will include a detailed breakdown of each &#8220;score sheet&#8221;.\u00a0 According to their website, a simple scoring breakdown is:<\/p><ul><li>N\/A = Not Applicable<\/li><li>1-2 = Unsatisfactory<\/li><li>3-4 = Poor to Below Average<\/li><li>5-6 = Average to Above Average<\/li><li>7-8 = Good to Very Good<\/li><li>9-10 = Exceptional (Some of the best we\u2019ve ever seen)<\/li><\/ul><p>After the official reviews, other factors taken into account are written reviews, thumbs up or thumbs down, saves, and bucket list adds.\u00a0<\/p><p>This is not a pay-to-play ranking list. Haunts cannot pay to have their haunt shown more in these customized lists. The Haunt Advisor is driven by actual guest experiences and is designed to be difficult for one sour customer or a couple over-zealous owners &amp; their loving family members to skew results. Between the professional and guest reviews, you are much more likely to get an accurate idea of what each haunt holds before visiting.<\/p><p>Another important aspect of the Haunt Advisor is that if a haunt is scarier than your desired level of &#8220;Scariness&#8221;, it will not appear on your list. No one is helped by sending a nervous first-time haunted house visitor to the most extreme show in the county. Sometimes the highest rated haunt in your area is not the best fit for what you want out of the evening, and the Haunt Advisor&#8217;s algorithm is built with that in mind.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c2354d4 elementor-widget-divider--separator-type-pattern elementor-widget-divider--no-spacing elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"c2354d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\" style=\"--divider-pattern-url: url(&quot;data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns=&#039;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&#039; preserveAspectRatio=&#039;xMidYMid meet&#039; overflow=&#039;visible&#039; height=&#039;100%&#039; viewBox=&#039;0 0 126 26&#039; fill=&#039;black&#039; stroke=&#039;none&#039;%3E%3Cpath d=&#039;M10.7,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L0.7,17L4,13.1L0,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L10.7,6z M23.9,6.6l4.2,4.5L32,7.2l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9L32,19.1l-3.9-3.3l-4.5,4.3l-2.5-1.9l4.4-5.1l-4.2-3.9L23.9,6.6zM73.5,6L76,8.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-5.2l-3.9,4.2L63.5,17l4.1-4.7L63.5,8l2.3-1.3l4.1,3.6L73.5,6z M94,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,5.4L94,20.1l-3.9-5l-3.9,4.2L84,17l3.2-3.9L84,8.6l2.3-1.3l3.2,3.9L94,6z M106.9,6l4.5,5.1l3.9-3.9l2.3,1.3l-4,4.5l3.2,3.9l-1.6,2.1l-3.9-4.2l-4.5,5.2l-2.5-1.9l4-5.4l-4-4.3L106.9,6z M53.1,6l2.5,2.6l-4,4.3l4,4.6l-2.5,1.9l-4.5-4.5l-3.5,4.5L43.1,17l3.2-3.9l-4-4.5l2.3-1.3l3.9,3.9L53.1,6z&#039;\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E&quot;);\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ada7e05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ada7e05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Visit &amp; Follow The Scare Factor<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68ac4fb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"68ac4fb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I have a lot of respect for The Scare Factor&#8217;s founders, Tyler and Nora Proffet.
