Capabilities

Tools 4

scaremap_categories

List every haunt category with its display label and the number of public haunts in it. Call this first when the user asks what kinds of places ScareMap covers, or to get valid values for the category filter on the other tools. Takes no input.

Discovered
scaremap_find_haunts

Find haunted houses, haunt farms, ghost tours, horror escape rooms and haunted places within a radius of a latitude/longitude, nearest first. Call this when the user gives a place, address or coordinates and wants scary things to do nearby. Geocode a place name to lat/lng first; this tool does not search by name. Filter by category, by season, or by minimum visitor ratings. Unrated haunts (review_count 0) have null ratings and are left out when min_stars or min_scare is set. For a whole city or state use scaremap_find_haunts_in_city. For the full record and reviews of one result use scaremap_get_haunt.

Discovered
scaremap_find_haunts_in_city

List haunts in a US state, or in one city of that state, using the same state and city grouping as the ScareMap location pages. Call this when the user names a state or city ("haunted houses in Salem, Massachusetts") and has no coordinates. State accepts a name, a slug or a two-letter code. Results are ordered by review count, then name. If the city is not found, the error lists the cities ScareMap has in that state. To search by distance from a point use scaremap_find_haunts.

Discovered
scaremap_get_haunt

Get the full record for one haunt: description, category, season, location, average ratings, and up to 20 of the newest visitor reviews (stars, scare, text, date). Call this after scaremap_find_haunts or scaremap_find_haunts_in_city when the user wants detail on a specific result. Pass the slug from those results, or the haunt id. Reviews are anonymous. A haunt with no reviews returns an empty list.
