And there’s not an option to get rid of them?? Seriously, man? A gushing ad for toothpaste in the middle of a horror podcast is the way you want to present something great that you’ve poured so much effort and passion into? Why can’t I pay you to not have ads!?

You know what really wrecks the dramatic tension in your show? Getting interrupted mid-sentence by some cheery stranger selling dubious health products. It was one thing to put ads before/after the show, but interrupting a 20-minute episode twice for ad content makes it pretty unlistenable.

I know sometimes there’s not much choice in sponsors, but as soon as I heard a “Better Health” ad, I turned it off. All credibility lost & won’t even grace it with a listen if that’s the kind of sponsors they bring on.

All in all it’s a quality listen. In Season 4 Episode 14 there is reference to local SD Mom and Pop pizza place with best pizza in ca. I’d be shocked if it isn’t referring to Bronx Pizza at 111 Washington St, San Diego, CA 92103 I am an ex patriot NY PIZZA snob. This pizza IS NY pizza!!

I’ve enjoyed this podcast through the first 3 seasons. Season 4 have gone off the rails a bit. Jeremy has become annoying and the foul language seems a bit forced. I’ll try to finish season 4 but if it continues to deteriorate this will be the end for me. The fact that he’s still having trouble asking for permission recording people is a bit irritating too.

Zzzzzzzzz same thing over and over

Very good and gets better. I hope to hear a lot more from this blossoming talent!

This podcast needs two things (full disclosure I’ve only listened to the first season) first it needs to stop with the sound effects! So corny. Second you gotta do a better job of your meta story if your gonna have one. It’s confusing enough to have a story about a guy who’s doing a podcast on the story of a guy who collected the stories of other people, ya know?

Love the whole podcast. The case files are entertaining and scary. Love the voice acting along with the music and backgrounds. Great job!

It’s October 2022 just discovered this podcast been catching up since the beginning and I will say this is totally awesome. Just well crafted and well done.

I’m just echoing a lot of what’s already been said. It’s enough to keep my attention but it’s no TMA. Also GIANT groan at the way the narrator inserted himself into the story — it was poorly-contrived, not graceful or even believable, and poorly-written but it is what we have been sitting with for several seasons now so it is what it is. Though, seriously, the church scene when all the super friends get together to fight the big evil was stupidly convoluted. Also, not a big fan of Ron’s backstory but I appreciated how out of left field it was because I saw that other S4 plot twist coming from 15 episodes away. Other things: the squelching and slurping noises are very unnecessary but for the most part have calmed down and the other audio is ok to me. Some of the stand alone episodes are poorly written. The one about the hotel maid or whoever she was with the zombies and the building burning down and she is telling the story from the perspective of a police confession… yeah that one. That was probably the worst standalone and the closest I ever came to unsubscribing (you really have to be more discerning a out your guest writers). But the main story is intriguing enough to keep my attention and I am caught up so it is worth it to me to check in for new episodes every few weeks. That said, I struggled with Jeremy’s intonation for awhile and somehow it has just grown on me. I think I just know what to expect now so I’m less annoyed but it would have been nice not to have to have dealt with that for 3.5 seasons… anyway, 4 star because it honestly is still better than plenty out there…

It's no replacement for The Magnus Archives, but it's okay. There is a lot of unnecessary music that is very distracting and takes away from the story. The stories are definitely repeats of ones that you'll have seen on Supernatural or The X-File or heard on The Magnus Archives, but they're still presented in a mildly intriguing way. Overall, it's not great, but it's better than the radio.

Came here from The Magnus Archives. Don’t get me wrong. This isn’t a perfect podcast, it’s a little copycat to TMA sometimes, the production is okay, the narrators voice is a little monotone and the sounds used can be a little over the top (I don’t recommend eating while listening to this.) But the individual stories have an M. Night Shyamalan vibe (if he ever decides to make found footage) to them. It comes across as what it’s meant to be. It doesn’t make for a good binge but it’s a good, slightly gross, casual listen for fans of TMA or the found footage (or found audio) medium. Just give it a chance.

I wanted to like this. It was recommended while listening to The Magnus Archives (which is waaay better), and I had high hopes for it, but it comes across as corney and just not very well written. I gave it about fourteen episodes and it never got any better. Also, the narrator needs to work on inflection. He’s so monotoned that it’s almost painful to listen to.

When I started the podcast, I absolutely loved that it was individual stories…like a bunch of creepy pastas that are found in a storage unit. As the podcast goes on, the narrator becomes deeply involved in the overall story of where the papers came from…it becomes convoluted and started to lose me. I really love the stories, the writing, the narration…everything, but if you kept more to the original formula it would be a 5 star for me!

This series is a little frustrating - it’s mostly good, but the sound fx are so bad and distracting. It really detracts from the show; I’d otherwise give 4 stars. The writing is decent and usually creepy, tho the metaplot isn’t interesting. It’s not a waste of time, but not a series I”ll re-listen to, if that makes sense.

Make no mistake—this is a horror fiction podcast, plain and simple. Terrible things happen, and people get hurt. It also has interesting characters, a complex, engrossing and thoughtfully-written plot and is absolutely worth a listen for fans of the genre. I’m glad to see such a high-quality podcast exists and am pleased to recommend it.

I don’t want to spoil anything, just know that if you enjoy scary stories, you’ve come to the right place. Extremely well written and interesting. No complaints.

Especially dogs. I can not listen to this anymore, and I can’t recommend it. There’s a disclaimer at the top of each episode stating that listener discretion is advised, but it’s non specific about what sort of upsetting content there is, so here’s a trigger warning for those of you that care.

Don’t look at any more reviews, it’s great. Just put your headphones on and dive in. Just keeps getting better. I haven’t enjoyed something this much since Tanis and the Black Tapes

This show is so realistic I have to keep reminding myself it’s fictional!! Sound quality is a little glitchy. I am still in Season 2 so maybe that improves going forward Could benefit from more actors’ voices—gets a bit monotonous but still very good. Prosody Lady

This is a great podcast but sometimes the speaker sounds muffled and the sound effects are loud and clear. I’m on season two maybe the sound improves. It’s not a deal breaker or anything like that the stories are interesting just wish audio was crisp

At the end of the last episode of season three we were told to look for a clue on the website. There was a strange glitched review at the bottom of the website. If you take all the capital letters from that review and then also the ending numbers and letters sequence. You will get a YouTube video that has the same title as the comment on the website. This video is just noises and sounds to me but if anyone figures it out please let me know.

A set of honestly spooky stories. Fans of horror anthologies will love this podcast.

Stick with the Podcast, while the reader and audio isn’t what people look for , the writing and stories themselves are fantastic!

Awesome podcast!

First season was just good enough to keep me listening.. the 2nd season was…meh.. the highly hyped 3rd season was unfollowable (to make up a new word..) Too many random stories when it started with a somewhat “linear” story. Now it’s just those things they call “creepy pastas”. You lost my interest hard. Had high hopes and almost joined the Patreon during the first season. Could have done a lot better - seems like you changed from writing an okay narrative to just relaying fan stories.. hope to find something that catches and KEEPS the interest of listeners..

Listened to this after finishing TMA, but it just doesn’t hit the mark for me. It was good at first but now it’s too confusing to follow. The smaller sub plots keep overshadowing the bigger plot and it’s hard to figure out how the characters fit in. There are so many random episodes in between actual plot development that it’s just not fun to listen to. The worst part is the audio engineering, the background noises are SO jarring and thrown in randomly that it’s terrifying because my headphones are up due to the narration being so quiet. The sound effects are also just really graphic for no reason. Tbh I probably won’t finish this one. As an artist I totally get how hard it is to put your work out there so props to Jeremy for that but this is a hard pass.

I came here fresh from finishing The Magnus Archives and this definitely scratched my itch for more of this type of content. I love anything creepy and unsettling and the narrator does a great job of carrying the stories. Highly recommend of you love creepy found tapes and mystery.

As someone who has listened to creepy pastas, audio books, and all things creepy nightly for a decade, it is rare that i find something that holds my interest. I am particular when it comes to the voice of the narrator, the originality, the way they paint the picture with words, and the level of believability. This is one that checks all the boxes, and is among my top 5 podcast platform series. If you like the creepy, but not overly done, this is for you. Keep up the good work. I look forward to hearing more.

You guys really missed the mark on how you wrote what is supposed to be a “black” character. It was loaded with stereotypes… I’m disappointed.

I agree with some of the complaints about production quality-the sound can be jarring. My biggest complaint is the narrative. I liked it at the start-a kind of Xfiles mix of conspiracy, aliens, and general weirdness. At some point every episode just started describing dreams and I realized I was really bored.

The story is intriguing and I’d like to keep listening, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it past the terrible production. The narration is so quiet it’s inaudible unless I crank the volume way up, and then the sound effects are SO LOUD. On top of that, the sound effects are always something both corny and unpleasant, like a piercing scream or disgusting eating sounds.

i can’t believe i’ve just found this podcast. it is simply incredible. keep doing what you’re doing!!

Highly entertaining!

Just finishing up season 2, and I hope we aren’t going to be seeing a romantic connection with Brianne or even more of her, really. The focus on Brianne has been the weakest part of season 2, kind of weighting the stories away from standing alone with a narrative thread linking them together, more to parts of one tale. The show gets under my skin (in a good way!) when telling those eerie, unsettling stories, leaving me with chills. I hope we will be returning more to this structure. I know it is not easy to keep churning out new short stories, so I get it, but still. No more Brianne, she is not intriguing nor interesting, and her surname (Scanlon; respectfully, it’s odd) is grating; it literally distracts me whenever it is mentioned. The show is very good, and the sound and editing are tops. Thank you; I look forward t its future.

It’s like a knock off of magnus archives.. the sound is so so. The sound effects could be so much better and are way louder than necessary. Also the episode with the Ghost girl in the woods, That cicada sound went for for way to long over and over. And of course worst of all, the narrator is boring. His voice as a reader is so bland. I know that’s not kind, it’s not his voice (well a bit) but more so his voice acting. It’s very flat. I’m nearly done with the series but idk if I’ll finish.

I’m just tired of guys with too wide smiles. How about a too small smile once in a while?

I feel like the “sound effects” end up being much louder than the dialogue in terms of audio levels, causing me to have to turn the volume up and down a lot. I’m only on episode 13, so maybe that’s already fixed. Anyway, keep up the great stories!

Very creepy series of inventive stories. Always fun hearing how they play out, compelling to the end.

Could be a great paranormal podcast, but the writer is determined to muddy every story with the bible, the greatest fiction to ever ruin mankind.

Binged overnight. Sad I’m done. Love love loved it! Looking forward to more!!

The story is well written and a little spooky/ creepy. Received 4 stars because the show is ordered from 10 to 1 instead of 1- 10 (example) causing listeners to stop what they are doing to make sure they aren’t going to repeat an episode.

I don’t know if I’m just desensitized to horrror, but I was not scared. I’m listening to some selected episodes and I have not had a single spook. However, this podcast is extremely well produced. I can tell time and care was put into this

This had an interesting premise, was a little creepy, and managed to pull me in and hold me. So many podcasts rely on “over acting” to compensate for weak stories, there was none of that here.

I don’t usually get into podcasts easily, but this one gave me goosebumps ! Had me looking over my shoulder a few times too. I can’t wait for the next season and cannot recommend this enough !

Similar to the Magnus Archive, the Storage Papers has a good balance of monster of the week and larger, ominous narrative. Even the monster of the week episodes have connections. Really really great podcast for fans of well written horror

Mysterious documents, paranormal activity, and grinning strangers. if you’re a sucker for this stuff as I am: here you go!

I’m confused.

I just finished season 2 (10-3-20). I found this similar to Limetown or Darkest Night. The short stories of each episode are quite intriguing. If you don’t think too critically, it’s pretty decent. I found a few things that took me out of the experience. The pauses to play music at a “dun-dun-dun” moments cut the narration and went too long which broke immersion for me. And in some of the documents supposed to be police reports or such were too detailed as a report from the perspective of some one who just experienced trauma. However the descriptions of the scenes were well written and allowed you to visualize it all in your head, but a person in flight or flight mode would not usually recall such details. Once the religious aspect of demons or the similarities of Hydra to MK Ultra were brought in, it kinda lost me as well. That all being said, I gave a listen all the way through just to see if my expectations would be subverted and give it a chance to maybe steer away from those tropes. The parts that are good are good, the parts that are bad are noticeable. So I still give this podcast a high rating, because despite its flaws, I still wanted to listen. I look forward to see what season 3 will bring and how things get tied together.
