A haunted theater show is a seated or guided performance, actors, script, staging, ghost stories, where nobody chases you; a haunted house is a walk-through designed to startle. Theater suits dates, mixed-scare-tolerance groups, and anyone who wants atmosphere without ambush. Check whether the show uses audience participation, and sit toward the back if being picked would ruin your night.
Mix tiers: one or two full-price event screenings you actually care about, then fill with discount weeknights, matinees, second-run houses, and free library or park screenings, which cluster in October. Theater subscription programs pay for themselves in three visits. Skip concessions at the filler screenings and splurge at the events, and track it all so the total stays a number you chose.
Book the show first, then a dinner reservation 2-2.5 hours before curtain within a ten-minute walk, so parking happens once. Match themes for bonus points, cocktails somewhere moody, then the ghost show. Skip the heavy tasting menu before a late screening, and plan the post-show drink spot ahead, since everything near the theater fills the moment the crowd releases.
