Freakfest, Madison?s annual downtown Halloween party, attracted at least 5,000 fewer people this past weekend, but still got approval from the event?s organizer. Frank Productions, the company that operates Freakfest, sold 26,000 tickets to Saturday night?s event held on State Street. Various factors influenced this year?s attendance, but fewer ticket sales don?t mean the company will stop running the event, said Charlie Goldstone, of Frank Productions.
