Had a very sweet moment today while listening to TMA. Episode 27, Sturdy Lock is about an old man who lives alone who spends months unable to sleep due to someone trying to break into his bedroom. It is not the episode to listen to if you’re the only person in a building & it certainly isn’t one to listen to if there’s any chance of the building making weird noises.
It freaked me out. A Lot.
Like so much that I had to message one of my friends telling them I’d spooked myself & ask if they could call me.
And they did. They spent 20 minutes listening to me ramble while I calmed myself down & got my job done. Because I listened to the spooky shit podcast & spooked myself
#tma podcast#episode 27 a sturdy lock#I don’t think this needs a spoiler tag#but I’ll tag it#TMA spoilers#good episode#I did jump when a car backfired outside tho#I made this face 🥺🥺🥺#and my friend came to the rescue#almost finished season 1#yippee!

Time for more The Magnus Archives! Todays listen starts with episode 21: Free Fall through 22: Colony 23: Schwarrzwhatever skipped bc historical shit bores me, 24: Strange Music 25: Growing Dark, 26: A Distortion, 27: A sturdy lock and finally 28: Skintight
(prev episodes here)
Free Fall
Martin! I almosr skipped this one bc one of my fears is "im in a situation i cant walk/climb/swim away from", but my hands were full so i just let it go. and we get an interruption! i love those
Colony
Okay. So I love Martin right off the bat for unfair meta reasons and for pretty legit diagetic reasons. One, I have a fondness for Alex's voice from listening to Rusty Quill Gaming. I always hear him playing this one shot himbo paladin of Apollo, and it always makes me grin. So im just flat predisposed to feel favorably to anyone voiced by Alex.
But two, so far Jon has been presented as kind of prickly. He sounds unpleasant to give statements to, wretched for work for, and particularly hard on Martin. Maybe its justified, maybe not, we havent had a chance to know. So now we get Martin "on camera" and he is immediately cast as pathetic and aligned with the reader: creeped out by all this spooky shit. He goes on to be a very good boy, doing scary shit bc he knows he needs to do a better job for his boss.
And then, brilliantly, Jon subverts this dick boss vibe thats been building by offering a room to Martin. He takes Martin's concerns very seriously, because he takes legitimate archives concerns very seriously. Weve seen hints of this with his reactions to things like the Lightner books, but this is the first time hes reacted with a sense of urgency. its a ramping up of the tension, now that weve established the tone of the work and some truths about the world. its really interesting that this shit isnt in response to dreamer, a direct threat to his predecessor, but rather a direct threat to one of his subordinates. It says some interesting things about Jon's character, and shifts my expectations on how he might react to future incidents.
ugh. im remembering the other reason why listening to this at work was a no go. The sound mixing on this is so bad that even with my headphones cranked all the way up, i can't hear shit :/
Schwartzwhatever skipped due to disinterest in historicals, let me know if im missing any vital clues or fun interruption scenes
Strange Music
Not much to say about this one, although it was fun to listen to Sasha and Jon lampshade the problems of audio media and regional pronounciations of Calliope. Has anyone ever actually heard it pronounced Callie ope (like cantaloupe)?
Growing Dark
So, i happened to go back and listen to 9: A fathers love, while trying to calibrate my headphones, and what a happy accident that I did! Hello, The Peoples Church of The Divine Host! Also, connection to Gertrude's "death" (still not 100 that she's dead, just gone)
Flag: TPCotDH, episodes 9: A fathers love and 25: Growing Dark
A distortion
Sasha! This is another one where my experiences with Rusty Quill gaming make me predisposed to like and trust Sasha. But since Jon also seems to trust her, that makes me more inclined to believe their opinion of Martin as a bit of a klutz, the one you trip when youre running from a bear, most likely to be the first casuality
Very curious about Michael, cant help but wonder if theyre going to lean into angelic mythology or not. Tuck that in my folder of "things to wait and see about"
A Sturdy Lock
By all rights this one SHOULD get to me. I dont remember if it did on my first listen, but this time around all I really care about is wondering from a writer perspective if all these "other statements" that get mentioned every now and again are already written/planned, or just mechanism to add to the sense of a larger world. And from a reader figuring shit out perspective, I'm starting to wonder if the archive is such a mess maybe on purpose. Like, was Gertrude a baddy (/IS a baddy????). Or maybe Martin is not as inept as he seems and is secretly moving things about 🧐
Skintight
I LOVE that this one isnt actually about a grey lady. its really fun how they like to set up common tropes and then sideswipe them XD. Plus its a real treat to hear two actors play off of each other. That works so much better for me than suspending my disbelief that grumpy old Jarchivist is recording these statements with such emotion XD

MAG 27 “a sturdy lock” review:
Gotta be honest It’s hard to keep my thoughts about this clear because my back is killing me atm. Can’t even breathe without feeling it yell. Must’ve pulled a back muscle wrong due to my continuous non-exercise. Anyways, statement begins.
This is a really tough one to figure whether that it was truly paranormal. Given the fact that the person was an old man, and that both there was no evidence(not to mention the only evidence he had was a creepy looking shadow) This really could go either way. Today’s name mention is one Sarah Carpenter, which I swear is important. She was a then member of the institute(this happened in 2003). Then again, it could be just that the name Sarah and carpenter have belonged to many important characters in many other pieces of media. Who knows. I rate this episode 5/10 imaginary locks, would haunt an old man again.
Statement ends.

YOUR TURN-
top 5 tma/tmagp episodes
youre so right choosing only 5 is so hard..
mag 15 lost johns cave - maybe my all time favourite i love how they used the "take her not me" audio and i really hope they do more kind of 'found footage' type stuff like that in tmagp
mag 27 a sturdy lock - i dont know what it is about this statement but its another one of my all time favourites, especially when we got the sons pov afterwards. ending it with "there was never a lock" was good i liked that
mag 32 hive - i too am in love with jane prentiss. this episode is so good i forget its recorded by jon its just so jane. there are so many iconic lines ITS SO GOOD "there is a wasps nest in my attic" what if i go crazy. one of the few statements i know word for word
mag 65 binary - i love sergey ushanka i love the way they portray the combination of human and computer i love how much it *hurts* "the angles cut me when i try to think" "theres no feeling but the no feeling hurts" SO GOOD
mag 122 zombie - i love the philosophical concept of zombies i think this is just a very fun episode, i love when they build statements off like real world phenomena! also this is the statement where jon wakes up and starts calling himself the archivist <3
honourable mentions under cut because this is already so long and i love to ramble <3
mag 77 the kind mother - one of the scariest to me. the not them is scary already but having your own mother be replaced and not being able to do anything about it and have it know you know. terrifying. reminds me of that old copypasta thing that was like. your mums voice shouts you to go down stairs but as youre about to your mum grabs you and says "i heard it too". things pretending to be your mother are just scary to me
mag 85 upon the stair - just a very cool episode i love that its from a real poem (good poem too) and i love how contradictory it is
mag 97 we all ignore the pit - i dont know WHY this episode always sticks out so much but its def in my top 10 its SO fun
mag 112 thrill of the chase - I LOVE MURDER CLUB
mag 153 lovebombing - also just a cool cool episode i love agape the dog i love weird cult stuff the "i dont believe you" line is very fun
#THIS IS SO LONG SORRY#i have so many tma thoughts but also its 4am so theyre not very coherent rn </3#TY FOR THE ASK THOUGH rhis is so fun !!

episode 27 - a sturdy lock
- why have i never heard of a bedroom door that uses a physical key and keyhole is this some british shit
- THE DISTORTION <3
- i think i accidentally combined this episode and the blanket episode in my head like they’re the same episode to me. i mean they’re basically the same concept anyway. they’re both pretty scary ngl

First time listening to TMA (Part III)
Part I II
16-40
#16 Arachnophobia: This has a vibe of “well wasn’t that fucked up, anyway..”. Also horrifying thanks, I now hate spiders even more and will be very paranoid for a few days.
#17 The Bone Turner's Tale: oooh nice intervention from his supervisor or something and the beginnings of an arch. So we have the human-leather-book and the not-Canterbury-Tales-book. They’re dangerous and tragedy befalls anyone who interacts with them. Also weird that Lukas' family is patrons of the Institute, they do feel creepy and with other intentions but now I’m sure I’m missing something. Maybe it’s just not time for that yet.
#18 The Man Upstairs: huh, is this where the meat from A Father's Love has been disappearing to? (Or was that stated in the episode?) But still feels like there’s a connection, with the whole meet thing and a creature made from meat.
#19 Confession I: !!! Actual storys crossing each other. I did think that it might be the father that was called in the tree episode but I didn’t remember the names. Nice. Although that whole cannibal thing did catch me off guard, there hasn’t really been anything like that so far, but I won’t complain.
#20 Desecrated Host II: love me some religious imagery with blood and parallelism to other things, in this case cannibalism. As soon as he said it was time for the Eucharist I knew that was it of course. So good. Don’t really get the relevancy of the name of the company that gave them the cloth, but maybe I’ll get it later?
#21 Freefall: excuse what was that end?? Here I am t marveling at the fact that John seems to maybe believe a bit of the statement and then it just cuts??? What did Martin find/bring??
#22 Colony: poor Martin, he sounds like such a sweetheart. Nice to John care at least somewhat. Who is this Jane Prentiss?? Didn’t they only mention her once at the beginning. Also interesting text, I’m sure that won’t come back to haunt us later on.
#23 Schawatzwald: ok so I had to go to the transcript of the episode to make some sense of what John says at the end, cause I was getting lost in between so many names. I do find it quite interesting that the Keay family and Magnus family (responsable for the founding of the institute) are so linked. I mean this is the third time that the name has popped up with a few months according to the timeline of the podcast, also they continue to be linked to books if I recall correctly. Does this have anything to do with the library of whomever that John is worried about? Are the eyes that Albrecht found on the tomb related to the cult that was mentioned? I’ll wait and see what becomes of that.
#24 Strange Music: ok definitely creepy but the overarching story is better. So the circus will definitely come into play later on given how John vaguely recalls the name. And also that they apparently have the cala-thing at the Archive. I would be worried about it but I think once they make it to the Institute they’ve already done what they needed to. Fun aside though I thought that John kinda recorded on like a room away from everyone else but this does seem to be the case if other employees can just jump in whenever cause they can hear him (what are John’s pronouns?? I’ll use him for now)
#25 Growing Dark: I knew that church/cult would come back. And I actually forgot that Gertrude's death was never actually specified, just "died in the line of work" or something, so I’m guessing right now it’s all gonna ramp up to how she died?
#26 A Distortion: ooooo more plot! So this Jane Prentiss is apparently dangerous and a mass of worms that is now stalking the team at the Institute. This not-Michael knows that something could happen to the archivist but there is a way to prevent it. It’s all coming together quite suddenly now but there are still many things floating around or missing
#27 A Sturdy Lock: John you’re finding empathy or something, how nice. Interesting story but it doesn’t particularly stand out
#28 Skintight: creepy though I have to say my favorite part is where you can hear characters interacting. You feel the glares they’re probably giving each other. Can’t say the name rings a bell right now but then again maybe it’s something for later
#29 Cheating Death: Not bad, had to listen again for how the exchange worked but still kinda cool. Hope the guy shows up again later on.
#30 Killing Floor: exactly as John said, more meat. Disorienting certainly and now it makes me want to see the actual process of meat plants.
#31 First Hunt: damn forget the statement I’m shocked by how defeated John sounds. Of course with everything going on who wouldn’t be. You’ve been told you and most of your time might die, your predecessor passed away under mysterious circumstances, your coworkers are being stalked by something dangerous and you can’t understand why. It’s all a bit much, but very interesting for me of course
#32 Hive: interesting and definitely laying groundwork for the story ahead. Again love how rattled John is at the end of the statement. He even breaks down a bit and admits that it doesn’t have a natural explanation.
#33 Boatswain's Call: omg are these comments from listeners from the show? The corrections from cases? How things are sometimes not clear? Also finally Tim! Is that the whole team? I think it is. Ok to the statement now. Very intriguing, again with the Lukas, the silence that follows them around and the mist.
#34 Anatomy Class: love how you can really instill horror with just descriptions and leaving some things to the imagination. That teeth-apple sounds horrifying, I hate it :). I imagine that the tidbit about placeholder name if for anyone that didn’t catch the John Doe and their dead stares. Although could these things be similar to that video recorder girl some episodes ago?
#35 Old Passages: okokok so now we’re actually starting to have all the details come together, but I’m still missing things. So this is Gerard Keay who knows many things from his mother, like the fact that Jorgun Lightbear(??) had books there. And it mentions some cases like the spiders, the burning feeling, the books from the mausoleum and by the end someone drops off a package for John, which I’m sure also happened in another statement. Also the worms/infestation is getting worse it seems. Also did the guy that dropped off the package sound like when you put together words from different videos?? Like he’s two different voices? Sounds weird
#36 Taken ill: ahhhhh you can’t leave me hanging like this!! What is that table? I can’t remember a table with a square hole. Although the zippo does feel familiar, didn’t someone have one but with an eye?
#37 Burnt Offering: ok so it was two men rather than just one, no wonder. And what’s with the table, is it because it’s related to a doppelgänger case? Poor Martin it’s not his fault. Knew it was Gertrude in the photo. Again, poor John he does indeed sound very tired of everything.
#38 Lost and Found: nice concept that it doesn’t just disappear things but it actually kinda erases they’re existence, could this be used with Janet if it were in the Archive? Also near the end of season 1, nice! Who needs sleep?
#39 Infestation: ????? Don’t leave me like that! Is this the end of Sasha? I liked her, hope we can her back. So is the table the one with the power to create not-people?
#40 Human Remains: ok love again the emotion and how you can tell each character by how they’re reaction to the situation and to John. Tim is obviously shaken up, can’t say I blame him. Elias is weirdly detached, I’m sure something will come from that. It’s not that he's malicious, but toned down, still you can tell he does care a bit, maybe. Martin is still a sweetheart and I love him a lot, great voice actor. I don’t like that we now have a Not-Sasha, I really liked her and worse is the fact that she managed to get the tape that has Sasha's experience, maybe because you can tell her mannerisms are different or for plot, either way not a fan. Poor John too, that can’t have been a pleasant experience and now he’s very shaken by everything, feels like he’s two second away from snapping. And the fact that one of the tapes missing is for the weird instrument does not sit right with me, then again that is the point. So I’m guessing next in the story is exploring these weird tunnels and see more threads start to connect with the rooms to be found there and what actually happened to Gertrude.
It’s been quite journey but I’m so glad I’ve finally given it a chance. It really has great narrative and voice acting and manages to keep you engaged with the mysteries. Loving it so far!!!

💀🎃 It's that time of year!!! Here are my top 5 spookiest TMA episodes ranked in order from a fun little spook to genuinely scary 🤪 🎃
0 notes

For my all time personally scariest tma episode: Mag 177 Wonderland, it's more of a personal taste thing as all episodes are but this one truly IS The scariest for me and some other people. I generally don't think tma is all that scary but this one got me crying in fear, in my bed, ready to sleep
But that's season 5 (not the general consensus by FAR but i think the scariest statements are in season 5)
There is also Mag 157 Rotten Core i remember It was so disturbing and upsetting for me
But on the First season Mag 3 Across The Street(sold me on the show) and Mag 27 A Sturdy Lock also takes the cake. It's Sad and tense and i feel SO bad for that poor old man
GUYS PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOUR SCARIEST TMA EPISODE WAS AND WHY (preferably from season 1-2 cause i haven't gotten that far yet and spoilers but if you warn spoilers then i'll read them after i've gotten that far)
mine's lost john's cave i think (or the one where the weird demon thing tries to break into that old guy's house)

Episode of the day: MAG 27 A Sturdy Lock
"The officers assured me it was no problem, that they were happy to help, all in that tone that told me they thought I was just a senile old man hearing things in the night. I thanked them as they left, even though they had been of no help whatsoever, and spent the rest of the day searching for the key to my bedroom door. I found it in the end, and hoped that with it firmly locked I could sleep a bit easier that night. I was wrong."

MAG 86 Tucked in (also known as "The blanket never did anything" episode) always annoys me so much!
The guy talks about a monster which hurts him and says it will arrive again tonight and is like "well guess I die?"
He doesn't try sleeping in a room with some other person. He doesn't try not sleeping at all at night and sleeping during day. He doesn't try to prepare himself and take some weapon. Hell, he could ask at Magnus Instute if they won't send researcher with him to witness it as did that old man haunted by Spiral in MAG 27 A Sturdy Lock. He just accepts his fate.
Anyway in conclusion Benjamin Hatendi has completely opposite energy than Joshua Gillespie.
