Festhaus Fright Night replaced the original Fiends in Das Festhaus, and ran for two seasons in 2007-2008. It was replaced by FrankenRock in 2009.
I decided to search up some youtube videos to see if I could cobble together the whole show, for history purposes. The videos below may overlap some, but I tried not to include a video which had a song already in another video, unless it had another song with it. However, the show is still incomplete, there’s a chunk in the middle missing, and I only ever saw the show once in person so I honestly don’t remember what went in there. Also I believe these videos go back and forth between the 2007 and 2008 seasons. I don't believe there was any changes to the show between the two years.
This is where a chunk of the show is missing, I don’t know what exactly is missing besides the dancer change from cats to bats.
And if you don’t want to watch all these videos here’s a quick set list of what’s in the videos.
(Opening, none of which are sung by the cast)
Overall this is probably one of the most underrated shows Busch Gardens has ever done, and it could so easily be a terrible show, but it somehow works. This is the sort of show I kind of expect in the Festhaus at this point. And if Night Beats got replaced, well can we bring this show back Busch Gardens? You brought back Fiends and Starfright. This was just fun and entertaining.
