The Magnus Archives - The Fears
36Spoilers for the entire series – you have been warned.
Where does one begin to classify fear?
This video dives deep into the terrifying cosmology of The Magnus Archives, exploring the 14 known Entities that embody the core aspects of human terror. From the Flesh to the Eye, the Spiral to the End, we unravel the nature of each fear—how they manifest, what they want, and how they blend into one another like a spectral color wheel of dread.
We’ll also discuss the work of Robert Smirke, Jurgen Leitner’s chilling perspective, and how seemingly separate horrors may all be limbs of the same vast, unknowable being.
Whether you're a longtime fan or a curious newcomer (who doesn’t mind a few reality-shattering spoilers), this is your primer on the powers that shape the world of The Magnus Archives.
