No jumpscares, or cheap scares, just a really scary and well made podcast. Watch it if you like sleeping with your eyes open Now I better go change my pants.

What a mess of a story. While TV shows can handle flitting between different scenes, settings, timelines and sub-plots, the lack of visuals make such a structure too chaotic and disorientating for audio. One minute you're listening to one female voice, the next you're listening to another, and you've got no idea that at some point the focus between different people and places. Episodes finish with the attention on one person and then the next starts on someone else with no heads up it isn't picking up from where it left off. Voices and personalities aren't distinctive enough either, which doesn't help. Possibly the most interesting episode of S1 is the finale, which is pretty much completely disconnected from the rest of the series. Yes, it does explain the origins of the curse, but ending a season with brand new characters in a brand new era is a bizarre choice. The whole swarm of mysterious characters like Ezekiel, Robbie and Artie have no clear motive and their behaviour, appearances and abilities aren't explained clearly enough. There's mystery and then there's convoluted nonsense. Burned Photo is a mess of a story, saved only from the minimum one star by QCode's typically-high production value (sound effects are superb as always). I cannot possibly recommend this show unless you're quite happy to spend several hours not really knowing what's going on and ending a season with no conclusions whatsoever.
