Depth rarely seen in other horror podcasts.
Amazing, intense, exhilarating. I stumbled into this from a clip on tiktok from episode 93, I am so happy to have found such an intriguing depth of story and horror. From the first episode completely pulling me in, to when the story starts to take on a life of its own. Truly fascinating and thrilling.

Great Podcast, audible sucks at it though
Okay so first things first:
This podcast is incredible. The Magnus Archives is a horror fiction podcast of unparalleled story, narration, ambience, and just all around tremendously well done. The characters are incredible, the plot is sublime, and the voice acting is too notch in all but 1 or 2 places where it's just slightly (and I mean very very slightly) hammy. Overall this podcast is one of my favorite fiction stories that there are.
HOWEVER:
Audible is a bad platform to listen to it on. Audible has an appalling habit of treating podcasts as constant livestreams, where "next" episode means "latest" episode, and so trying to listen to this series in order means you will have to manually select each new episode yourself, or risk being sent to the very last episode that there is when each episode ends.
You will also have to deal with your Audible App freezing and glitching out when you try and swap from a podcast episode to an actual audiobook, or vice vursa, because Audible treats them differently. If you try and swap back and forth, the app with slow down so much and eventually freeze altogether, and the only way I have found to fix the issue is to turn your phone to Airplane Mode just to stop it from dropping into a permanent loading lock.
Downloading each canonical episode seems to help a little, but even then: if you want to have a playlist of Magnus Archives episodes in order, you'll have to play around with turning airplane mode on and off to "reset" your audible apps loading. This app is a terrible way to listen to them, don't do it unless you are willing to open your phone every 20-30 minutes to manually select the next episode, because:
YOUR PHONE WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY GO TO THE NEXT EPISODE, EVER, AT ALL, IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, AT ALL, EVER, when using audible.
Now, all that being said, this podcast is still absolutely a 10 out of 10 podcast if you love horror, fiction, complete stories, or just good writing and voice acting in general.

I could be listening to Magnus Archives
I’ve been listening to audiobooks/podcasts every day for six years while at work and on drives (9+ hours a day) and I’ve never relistened to something as much as this
the writing, ambience, and performance are some of the best I’ve herd

one jarring note
This was a really great short story, until they wrote about female victims. no way would a woman go out drinking alone and the walk into an ally where someone hid in shadows n gestured-let alone more than men. they wouldn't have gone after a group either.

They can't keep doing this
Rusty Quill does it yet again, an amazing ride from start to finish.
The narration is immaculate, the atmosphere is oppressive, and the writing is simply top-notch.
Definitely on my repeat listening list!

Binged it!
Johnny Sims is probably one of the most talented horror writers out there right now. This podcast and the amazing cast do such an incredible job of bringing the horror to life I was legit scared in some places and cried in others and probably like everyone who has listened to this podcast you have your favorites. Mine? Martin and Michael.
John, the archivist starts off bumpy, you will probably hate him at first but he grows on you so stick it out. There are so many characters to love here and the storyline is freaking amazing and incredibly expansive. My niece is the one that got me hooked on this series and I have suggested it to everyone I think would enjoy it.
There are inclusions for LGBT+ peeps and that also makes me super happy! So buckle up listeners, it's gonna be a heckuva ride.
