Horror / Thriller across markets

What the markets do differently

Horror / Thriller across 6 markets: this board puts the same niche side by side, one column per market, each column showing its own top 10 by breakout score. Columns are ordered by how much evidence each market holds — English / Global is the deepest with 103 tracked signals, while Thai holds 1. The niche as a whole carries 132 signals across 72 channels.

Ranked by median pace, Hindi runs hottest at 5,801 views/day across 6 signals, against 1,557 in Arabic; the niche median is 3,578 views/day. Median reach in the two extremes is 86.6× and 14.4× against a niche median of 14.0×. Read that with the sample sizes in hand: 1 of these 6 markets have fewer than 5 tracked signals, and in a market that small a single video moves the median more than any format difference does. The safer comparison is between the columns that hold dozens of signals.

Runtime also drifts by market — the longest median is 96 minutes (Portuguese) and the shortest is 10 (English / Global). Titles are where the markets differ most: English / Global (103 signals) leads with statement / cold open; Spanish (12 signals) leads with statement / cold open; Hindi (6 signals) leads with statement / cold open. Hooks are counted from titles, not guessed from framing, so they show what sellers in each market actually lead with. A hook that dominates one column and barely appears in the English one is usually the most copyable thing on this page.

How to use this board: open the same topic in two columns and compare the first 30 seconds. Same structure with a different hook means the format travels and you can keep your own language; a different structure means that market has its own grammar and copying the local shape is the shorter path.
