Scares Speak No Language — Jack Davis (Founder & CEO, CryptTV)

Jack Davis is the Founder & CEO of CryptTV, a digital media company and horror lifestyle brand that creates and distributes dark, edgy, and scary video content on Facebook and across its family of publisher sites. Jack launched CryptTV in 2015 with horror icon Eli Roth, and it is now the fastest growing leader in digital scares.

In this episode, Jack shares his experience working with horror legends Eli Roth and Jason Blum and building a niche digital content company that would be audience-supported rather than a brand-supported business. We talk about Crypt’s decision to launch on Facebook, its strategies for cultivating an audience on social platforms, and the challenges of startups, which Jack summarizes by reminding entrepreneurs, “No one is coming to save you.” Finally, we discuss the $7B annual Halloween industry and the international appeal of horror content — after all, “Scares speak no language.”

Hosts: James Creech and Luke Wang
