By JMagnus1818

The foremost institution for the study of the esoteric and paranormal. The employees are quite diligent and I feel comfortable that my statement is being watched over carefully

 

By TtheStroker

Do not work here under any circumstances. Do not give them your statement. This place is evil. Both of my bosses serve an evil god and they’re trying to make me do it too. I’ve suffered serious injuries, and it killed my friend. Don’t fucking go near it, set it on fire and do us all a favor. 

 

By Nherne

One of the employees was very rude to me during a point of great emotional distress. I don’t want to go into it here but I was in a very rough place. He told me I was imagining things. I don’t think he should work with the public! It was a horrible experience and I would suggest that anyone who has had a paranormal experience go elsewhere.

By FunkytownKing

I gave my statement and now I keep having nightmares where their archivist is watching me and not in a fun way. Plus he’s not even hot, he looks like my cat did after I gave him a bath and has about the same personality. But the receptionist was nice to me and gave me a biscuit. Chocolate chip.

Fuck this place

By RRRRogers

This is NOT the Italian Consulate. Made me late for my appointment. Weird ghost buildings should look like weird ghost buildings. 

 

★★★

By PastelPrincess82

I just wanted to drop off a book that a friend said made her see strange patterns that weren’t there and this weird tattooed goth man snatched it from me and set it on fire in the lobby? I’m a literature professor and I think that burning books is just the first step to an uneducated society, a la Fahrenheit 451. I don’t even think that man works there! Other than that incident though, the woman I spoke to at artifact storage was very lovely and they were very professional. 

 

By TtheStroker

If you get to thinking today

That you think this place is okay

Then you’re a dumb fuck

Another poor schmuck

And you should try running away

 

★★

By GHunterUK

Your archivist tried to gaslight me and he’s a bit of a dick. Also they just take anyone’s statement off the street. So unprofessional.

This place is fine

 

By MeaterFeater

I cannot believe anyone would give this place more than one or two stars. They asked me to tell them about what happened to me. AND I JUST DID SO MUCH THERAPY FOR IT. I don’t know how they’re even in business. Why would someone pay to keep this place open? It just collects fuckign ghost stories. And now I have nightmares and I don’t know why but I just know it’s the fault of that BITCH.

By Sean_Smith

Just had a meeting with the head, such a lovely fellow, very professional. I have decided to donate five thousand dollars a year to this establishment. After all, there are so few reputable organizations studying this phenomenon. Did you know they’ve been studying this subject since the early 1800s? The archive alone is a veritable treasure trove of historical documents. I tried to suggest they send some of the statements from that time period to a museum but Mr. Bouchard just laughed and said something about the privacy of Mr. Magnus’ personal life. So much history and you get to contribute to it!

 

By MKBlackwood

So one of my coworkers convinced me to write this but um, yeah. Probably best if you don’t work here. There have been at least two murders, so if you don’t like murder don’t work here.

By GMoney69

Didn’t go in but the architecture’s nice. Took a few pictures for my insta. My friends all think it’s that place where the Queen lives.

I think this place might be a cult actually

 

★★★★

By Rizzmeister

Didn’t go in but my mate says the woman who asked him follow up questions about his ghost story was really hot. 

 

★★★★

By TWinters

Not sure why there are so many negative reviews. The man who took my statement was a little weird and off putting but hey, so am I! He let me talk about computers and I gave him some tech help. 

 

By BoatCaptain

Too many people. Also Elias. 

 

By TtheStoker

Just going to spend the rest of my life writing fucking one star reviews I guess. Not much else I can do. Don’t go here.

Tried to call them to schedule an appointment and instead I just got a weird ringing noise and my nose started bleeding. 

 

By SQUIDZ

Why does the creepy basement man know things about me he shouldn’t know?

 

★★★

The building always makes me feel watched for some reason. But everyone I talked to was super friendly! 

 

★★

Todd_Mathews

They made me record my statement twice- apparently some manky old tape recorder is better than their computers. But got to love time wasters!

 

★★★

Feel like I should put a review here. Lost a few stars for the murders but also we’ve gotten some really good intel from them. Good on them for helping keep our city safe I suppose.

I’m not a fan of the Ceaseless Watcher but I must admit the man has some skill in keeping this place open for so long. Of course such things are easier when there isn’t much turnover in the head position! ;)

I think something in artifact storage ate my girlfriend 🙁

 

ThisGirlIsOnFire

Bouchard won’t even let me into the building:(. I only wanted to show my appreciation for his old archivist’s work. 

I’m glad she’s dead. After what she did it’s almost too good for her.

I heard the guy who was murdered here recently was Jurgen Leitner. When I was a kid one of his books killed my grandpa. It made spiders come out of his mouth and eyes and it really fucked me up. I had to go to therapy for years and I still can’t look at a spider without flinching. And my Gramps and I were really close, he’s the one who taught me how to fish. And now he’s gone and I’m really sad and I don’t know how Leitner died but I heard it was really brutal and his brains left the brain space. So I just want to say to whoever killed him, thank you, you’re the best.

Please someone just put me out of my misery. Or better yet, Bouchard. Fuck this place, fuck my life. 

 

★★

I think I just had the weirdest interview in my life. Not going to say more though because I still high key want the job. Also, can someone please explain the murder thing? Is that a joke? 

 

Please make the nightmares stop
