Magnus Archives Relisten, MAG 4 Page Turner, Spoiler Free Version!

Spoiler free version of my analysis of MAG 4, Page Turner. Enjoy!

Facts: Statement of Dominic Swain, regarding a book briefly in his possession in the winter of 2012.

Statement Notes: Starting simple, I would just like to say that as a theatre tech, Swain is so accurate and so real. "Doing a little bit of everything?" Real. Trying to see friends work but you also work at the same time? Real. Work place romance? Real. Not being able to relax when you see a play because you know all the tech stuff that can go wrong? Really real.

There's some really classic cursed object horror going on here that I love. Swain tries to sell the book the whole episode, but calls it "his book" fleeing Mary. Additionally, he says that he thought about giving it away, but felt that "wouldn't count." Very similar to Do Not Open here and a lot of cursed object horror in that there needs to be some kind of debt or reciprocity established rid one of the object.

I also just love the line "walking felt as natural as falling." It really conjures the idea that he can't control himself, that he's stumbling to Mary's shop uncontrollable just as he would fall down the stairs: completely unable to stop. It's like the vertigo attacked Katherine had was multiplied for him here.

Character Notes: My biggest takeaway about Jurgen Leitner in this ep is that he doesn't spell his name with an umlaut like others. Why did Jonny include that detail. What does that for me.

I also love Gerard Keay so much. He listens to death metal, he paints, he goes against his mom, he burns books. Such a strange and unstoppable force of a person. That news article about his trial really makes you scared of him, but you also kind of want to trust him? Especially when you place him next to his really scary cursed-book-collecting mother. The contrast and the different kinds of nerves/dread you feel listening to their descriptions is just an example of great horror writing.

I think it's so weird that Swain couldn't find anything online about him, though. These books and Jurgen Leitner are clearly around, so wouldn't there be some kind of chat room or reddit post about one? Builds my theory that there is something controlling the stream of information about the supernatural in this universe. Something is trying to contain it all to the archive.

But of course, Jon. He doesn't believe in the supernatural, but is absolutely terrified of Leitners and is working on an "institute project" to eradicate them? I would love to know how this project worked. Was it just research? Was there a team dedicated to finding and collecting these books? What was the incident in 1994? Why does Jon have this job if he doesn't believe in the supernatural? Does he think only some of it counts?

Crazy ep, one of my favorites. Let me know what you think!

besira and daisy

autors note : did this to absolutly crush u sensible tma fans

-daisy is crying but only from one eye (only one part of herself is still herself enough to be in pain )

-they have the same eye colour (the hunt has them both)

-they both have matching mouth scars ,likly from eachother, symbol for their hurtful relationship, but also of their close bond in that pain.

-besira is still holding on close even tho she already has bite marks on her hands

-they are not looking at eachother

-besiera's headscraf is white like daisy's teeth (white being a colour closly associated with innocence) : to eachother , they are good people.
