Mafia 1 Remake Definitive Edition has 20 Terror Tales Pulp Magazine Locations. Finding all Terror Tales is required for the Lending Library trophy or achievement. This guide shows all their locations.
None of the Collectibles in Mafia 1 Remake / Remaster are missable. You can see which Collectibles you’ve found in the Collection Menu. Click on the Collectible Type and press (PS4) / (Xbox One) to sort them by their Chronological Order. This guide lists them in the order they are closest together and includes the chronological in-game number and name for each one, so you can easily find your missing one. All Collectibles are saved instantly. On chapter replays you can quit to the Main Menu without reaching the next Checkpoint and there’s no need to find them again if you die. Everything carries over into your next playthrough, nothing gets lost when starting a new game.
Whenever there’s a collectible nearby it will show up as a colored icon on the minimap.
5 Terror Tales can only be found in the Story. The remaining 15 are located in Free Roam (Free Ride). You can access Free Ride from the Main Menu after playing the first story chapter. For a list of all other Collectible Types, including which ones to look out for during the story in chronological order, refer to the Mafia 1 Remake Collectibles Guide.
Terror Tales Magazines in Story
1 – Terror Tales #20: All These Must Die!
Chapter 9: A Trip to the Country / Objective: Defend Sam – While defending Sam, you’ll be in a barn with a bunch of enemies. On the ground floor of the barn (where the enemies are, just below Sam), there’s a Terror Tales pulp magazine on a crate. This is very easy to miss. Make sure you collect it before killing all enemies, as this would trigger a cutscene and you can’t go back afterward.
2 – Terror Tales #18: Mistress of the Dark Pool
Chapter 10: Omerta / Objective: Find Little Tony – in the bar where you talk to Tony, on the counter.
3 – Terror Tales #16: Madman’s Country Fair
Chapter 12: Great Deal / Objective: Turn on the Sprinklers – in the room where you turn on the sprinklers (main objective), right next to the sprinkler valve.
4 – Terror Tales #19: My Sweetheart of Death
Chapter 17: Election Campaign / Objective: Escape from the Prison – after you eliminate your target with the sniper rifle, you will come to a new prison section. On the linear path while walking through this prison section (can only go one way), check the first office you come by.
5 – Terror Tales #17: The Corpses Wedding Night
Chapter 20: The Death of Art / Objective: Kill Sam – in the Lost Heaven Art Gallery, in an office you automatically walk through

Grawl says
For the first one you mention you need to get it before killing all the enemies, because a cutscene will play. However, as long as you aren’t near Sam you can kill the enemies and go grab the magazine and whatever else you want without it triggering a cutscene.
PowerPyx says
“All enemies” includes the police in this section. When you kill the police, it skips to the turret chase.
George says
Number 8 is not there for me
George says
the 8th one but it is #15. Slaves for the Wine Goddess
THGhost says
It won’t let me pick up #18 for some reason. Restarted the mission, can’t back to the bar, still can’t pick it up.
THGhost says
*came back
TommyBoi says
Same here, no idea what to do other than maybe restart the game entirely and clear saved data. That’d be so much work gone though. Hope they have a fix for it soon.
Sniperwolf365 says
Carnt pick up the magazine in bar b4 and after talking to little tony
Cinderkin says
I also have the glitch of being unable to pick up #18. It’s sitting right at the bar flashing but can’t grab it :/
Speed says
#7 is Brides not Bridges. Also I think the guide could do with images of the covers to make locating which ones you have / haven’t got easier.
PowerPyx says
Good spotting! Fixed, thanks.
Ramensuki says
I still have the same glitch for the TT #18. Any news about that ?
Thanks all.
Ramensuki says
I think i’ve found my answer. Actually, if i couldn’t grab the TT#18 it’s because i already own it ! But the book stays on the bar even after picked it up !
Kevin says
