tma is pretty tame imo, I don’t do well with horror but most of the episodes weren’t that bad, there are some that did really get me of course, but most of them aren’t that hard to stomach

Anonymous:

the thing about tma is that it doesn’t rely on jumpscares. while idk about you, that’s the main thing that’s kept me away from the horror genre. tma itself usually isn’t super scary, but there have been one or two eps that do make me feel really genuinely uneasy. that’s kinda the extent of it tho

@spacedolphinsanddandelions:

Theres very little in the way of jumpscares it can be pretty unsettling tho a lot of the later eps have trigger warnings so thatll help

@hellotrickster:

Magnus was intentionally written to be enjoyably spooky or spine-tingly rather than outright scary.

@sparkledragons:

as someone who’s watched a lot of horror movies and doesn’t handle it well for me the audio medium softens it for me personally. i can avoid overthinking stuff and jump scares are harder

@tansyfandom:

I think that people who aren’t bothered by suspense or occasional body horror could easily find TMA relaxing. Jon has a soothing way of talking about his spooky stories

Anonymous:

i think tma is pretty tame because it’s more like a series of ghost stories than a horror movie, if that makes sense? there’s some suspense, but very few jumpscares, and most of it is told after the events have already happened. plus, the lack of visuals really helps tone down the fear factor while keeping the spooky atmosphere. i think for people who are bad with specific things like body horror, paranoia, or parasites, it can be really upsetting, but for most people it’s not that scary!

Thank you all for your input!! It seems we’ve got a pretty solid consensus that it isn’t especially scary in the way most horror tends to be, which makes it accessible in some ways that most horror is not.
