Popular Reviews of Tiny Terrors

I came for Mike LeBeau. I stayed for - everything really. The original hook of saving an old-school story exchange from disappearing into oblivion was enought to pull me in, and it only went better from there on. The stories are just the right point between fun and creepy, exactly the bedtime stories one would need after an exhausting day. Also, every character is just so likeable I already care about what is happening to them.Finally, a big round of applause for the sound production. Everything is top-notch here.

Tiny Terrors involves a bunch of characters recording spooky stories from a story exchange from an earlier age of the internet. If it reminds you of The Magnus Archives that's not an accident. I didn't realise the character Donnie Sums was a spoof of Jonnie Sims until I heard who they got to voice the character.

I remain only about 80% sure that the entire premise of this show isn’t actually just a little bit real. It’s very uncomfortable, and if it wasn’t for the fact that I have heard most of the actors in others things, I would fully believe it! The short stories themselves are spooky in their own right and the show so far has broadened out into a wider plot which is equally disturbing. I’m really excited to see where the plot goes and I really hope we get some more episodes with the characters reading the stories too along the way as they’re really enjoyable!

This show bills itself as an anthology, and it is.... sort of? I mean, it's got different, stand-alone short stories, read by a single narrator. But the meta-plot is so integrally a part of the story, that it's not really meta? I came in expecting something that was focused more on the stories themselves, but am not at all disappointed with what I got instead.A lot of shows use the "just a group of friends making a podcast" convention, but Tiny Terrors is the most believable one I've listened to. It feels... authentic, in a way other shows haven't-- with a great deal of backstage style content getting through to the audience. I became invested in the frame characters almost immediately, and a lot more interested in them than the stories themselves.Everything about the way this is told and the stories it's telling take me back to being a 4th grader, telling scary stories with my friends in the corner of the playground. Except listening to this show, there's a touch of honest-to-god what if fear.Won't lie, the name originally put me off. It was picturing evil kid horror a la children of the corn. I'm glad I got over that misconception and started listening.
