How we picked

Every haunt here is a live FrightMaps listing in San Diego, CA. We order by fan likes on FrightMaps, then how complete the listing is (description, photos). Pro status and paid placement never affect the order. Ranks were locked when this list was published; the 2027 list rebuilds from scratch, so posting dates and photos now is how you move up.
