I’m really into horror audio dramas and/or anthology podcasts. Because of this I’ve burned through so many over the past year or two I feel like I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel, which sucks

Ones i like (kind of ordered by how much i like them):

• Knifepoint Horror
• Acephale
• The Silt Verses (and I Am in Eskew)
• We’re Not Meant To Know
• Magnus Archives
• Malevolent
• Modes of Thought in Anterran Literature
• Archive 81 season 3
• Sleep Wake cycle (haven’t tried all of their pods yet, they’re kind of a lot)
• Ghost Wax (kinda kid but more good than bad)

Ones I DIDN’T like:

• Tower 4
• Welcome to Nightvale
• Road of Shadows
• Hello from the Hallowoods
• Wrong Station (occasionally good)
• The White Vault (not horrible but idk a bit corny somehow)
• Alice is Dead
• Lovecraft Investigations (it was fine but idk turned too thriller)
• The Black Tapes (not a fan of the overproduction)

Basically I like shows that

• Have enough faith in their writing to not rely on a thick coat of quippy self-aware sarcasm marvel slop
• Are heavy on atmosphere, focus on the fiction, not on the host and their haunted podcast studio or whatever
• Do not devolve into action hollywood thrillers UNLESS the writing is good enough to support it after a couple of seasons of more horror leaning stuff

Oh and if you want recs from me just ask and you shall receive I’m dying to talk about these shows
