elllarielle ,

TMA is a good introduction to horror podcasts

One of the greatest horror podcasts. Not the scariest, but a perfect introduction to the genre, with a mix of office comedy, drama and just good horror

SarahBaldwin ,

Comfortably creepy

I absolutely love this podcast! I’ve never really been interested in horror things and I avoid horror movies, so I were not sure if I would like this, but I do. I find it creepy in a weirdly comfortable way. I’m both scared and intrigued, but not so much that I can’t do things like embroidery while listening. And I find this fantastic

Gerardo Perez ,

Amazing horror stories

Not usually one to seek out these types of stories in podcast form, but the Magnus Archives is such a great show, I cannot but recommend it
