Do you find yourself checking your blind spots more often lately?
Are you taking an extra moment to really inspect that dark corner, doing a double-take because
that shadow shouldn’t move like that? Don’t worry, it’s happening to me too.
It probably has something to do with all the SCPs we’re covering on the channel, especially
the less-friendly ones. In fact, even though we claim a lot of these
can never escape, the Foundation has no real way to keep them sealed away.
That’s the reality of a Keter threat, I guess.
It’s better to know the threats than to be totally ignorant of them, right?
Hello horror heads and welcome back to the scariest channel on YouTube: Top5ScaryVideos.
I’m your horror host, Keegan Hughes, and today we’ve got the latest and greatest
edition of a lovely collection of SCPs. We’re gonna take a look at Part FOUR of
the Top 5 SCP Monsters That Can Never Escape. Holy smokes, that makes twenty of these anomalies
we need to hope never see the light of day. Before we begin the countdown, make sure to
fire a big thumbs up down below, and subscribe for more SCP awareness training.
Wicked, let’s get started.
NUMBER FIVE: SCP-939 Starting off with a doozy, this SCP is best
described as a big ugly red bloody unhinged-jaw fish cave thing with memory loss powers.
That’s a mouthful, I know, but it’s all true.
And the last thing you want is for it to get a mouthful of you.
Multiple iterations of this lovely cave-dweller exist, and they are capable of bearing young!
So they can multiply! How nice. 939 is an endothermic, pack-based predator,
adapted to cave life. It’s skin is highly permeable to moisture,
and is a translucent red colour thanks to a chemical compound similar to hemoglobin.
Kinda like a living blood sausage, if you’re into that kinda thing.
I’ve heard they’re quite delicious, but now I’m thinking about food instead of SCPs.
These weird, red troglobites are around 2.2 meters tall, and weigh about 250 kilograms.
They have four limbs, each ending with three claws, and a fourth opposable digit.
939’s extremities are covered in short, bristly hair-like structures, which are great
for climbing. Each has an elongated skull with no eyes or
eye sockets, not even a brain casing to be found.
Their jaws are lined with red, luminescent fang-like teeth, kinda like a viperfish.
That is an ugly sucker right there, oh wow. Along their dorsal ridges run eye spots and
spiny protrusions that are sensitive to light and air pressure, respectively.
These are likely used to navigate the caves they seem so adapted too, and to seek out
prey. The weird thing about their prey-seeking tendencies
is that they have no apparent need to feed. These hemoglobin hobgoblins are without vital
organ systems. No central or peripheral nervous systems,
no circulatory systems, no digestive tract. So they have no way of digesting the tissue
they consume, and instead let it accumulate in their respiratory system until there’s
too much, and they regurgitate it. Nothing sexier than regurgitating festering
meat from your lungs, right? SCP-939 is able to imitate human speech as
well, an ability it uses primarily to lure in victims.
It will pretend to be distressed, with voices so perfectly imitated biometric voice-recognition
systems can’t tell it apart from whoever it’s mimicking.
When prey is close enough, it will kill with a single bite to the cranium or neck, usually
measured in excess of 35 megapascals. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have
my head placed in a hydraulic press, you know? On top of all these horrifying details, 939
also produces an aerosolized Class C amnestic of its own accord.
No memories will form for the duration of exposure, and for an additional 30 minutes
after. A terrifying visage, the ability to play copycat,
a skull-crushing bite, and memory-inhibition! Lets just say you wouldn’t want to meet
one of these guys while spelunking.
NUMBER FOUR: SCP 1313 I always thought math was pretty scary on
its own. Throughout my schooling, I found solace in
english, and philosophy, and media studies, but never math.
My brain just isn’t wired for that kind of thought.
Thankfully so, too! I could have been in grave danger had I been
too keen on algebra and arithmetic! SCP-1313 is an anomalous series of logical
processes capable of being defined as a mathematical equation to which the answer is a single female
specimen of Ursus arctos. Aka a grizzly bear.
I think the proper designation for a grizzly is Ursus arctos horribilus, but we’ll leave
that be for now. IN LAYMANS TERMS, if you reach the correct
answer to the mathematical equation that SCP-1313 represents, a grizzly bear will manifest somewhere
close by and start to do what grizzly bears do.
Not something you want to deal with in homeroom. This numerical anomaly first came to the Foundation’s
attention in 1967, when a bear attack was recorded at Whitecross High School.
Since then, over 1700 separate incidents of bear attacks in educational institutes have
been observed, with 1600 fatalities, and 20% of the bears still at large.
Half-solving the equation won’t summon any predatory mammals, and there is no way to
return the bear to numerical form by solving the inverse.
So if you are going to follow through with this piece of math homework, just be sure
you’re well-equipped to fight a 200 kilogram mama bear.
If you feel that you have personally begun to figure out the equation, get yourself some
amnestics as soon as possible. The problem doesn’t have to be physically
represented, even solving it in your head will result in the manifestation of a bear.
I always knew math was unBEARable. Hmm.
I’ll see myself out.
NUMBER THREE: SCP-638 Wine and meat, that’s the good life right?
Cures what ails you, heals all wounds. Well, if you’re to believe SCP-638 that
would be the case! 638 is a male human, with a slim build.
He is hairless, and extensively scarred, thanks to a fire it was found in the remains of.
It heals at an abnormal rate, directly proportional to the consumption of raw flesh and wine.
Often, 638 will issue demands in the form of one or two-word shouts.
In the past, demands have been documented as wine, ivy, olive trees, grass for the floor,
freedom, women, live animals, a drum, a flute, and a view of the sky.
Apparently this guy knows how to live the good life.
If these demands are not met, 638 will become violent and exhibit short bursts of great
strength and speed. It’s been known to dent steel, easily lift
and throw grown men, break restraints, and shout with great force and volume.
These shouts can shatter glass, and deafen personnel, even blowing a steel door off its
hinges at one point. Fortunately, these outbursts lead to lethargy
if he is left without food and wine. This makes starvation effective as a behavioural
control. This SCP, while obviously anomalous, has one
ability that stands out from the rest. 638 has strong psychic or empathic influence
over women within a radius of about 20 meters. Any woman within that range will be compelled
to be in it’s presence, and once there will lose all inhibition.
This often manifests itself through intense dancing, jumping, and shouting.
If the affected individual is allowed to continue on, they will dance until they drop from exhaustion.
Attempts to remove female subjects result in violent responses from both 638 and affected
subjects. The SCP will use these folks to aid in escape,
as subjects will also demonstrate greater physical prowess, along with a higher level
of adrenaline. Once removed from 638’s influence, subjects
demonstrate full memory of their actions, and often feel intense shame if it is not
something they would have otherwise done. The jury is still out on how the influence
works, whether psychic or empathic, or something else entirely.
In the meantime, hide yo kids, hide yo wife, cos he influencing everybody out here.
NUMBER TWO: SCP-076 I like to think of this one as being a terminator
without the influence of Skynet. Less metal parts too, I guess.
076 is actually classified as two things: a stone cube, and the humanoid entity contained
within. The cube is covered in engraved patterns of
no known origin, with twenty one locks on the door.
Inside is a human male, estimated to be in his late twenties.
He has black hair, grey eyes, and olive skin. All over this entities body are tattoos depicting
arcane and occult imagery. This humanoid is commonly referred to as Abel,
and for simplicity’s sake, I’ll refer to him as such.
Abel is technically dead when encased in the stone cube.
However, every once in a while he will awaken, and reanimate with al vital human processed.
He’ll then seek out the nearest human, and enter a rage state in which all humans encountered
are fought to the death. The only way to end this rampage is by killing
Abel. This proves to be very difficult though, as
he possesses superhuman physical abilities, and is able to ignore pain and shock.
He’s been seen carrying on through seemingly deadly injuries, ripping through reinforced
security doors, clearing 64 meters in under 3 seconds, taking multiple .50 cal rounds
to the head and continuing to fight, swatting lower cal bullets out of the air with rebar,
surviving without oxygen for more than an hour, and materializing bladed weapons out
of nowhere. Is my Terminator comparison making more sense?
Even when he dies, he will turn to dust and reform in the coffin over a period of time
between 6 hours and 25 years. The lad has nothing but contempt for human
beings, and will fight tooth and nail to keep killing.
There’s a weird connection between SCP-076 and SCP-073, and under no circumstances should
they be allowed to meet. Here’s hoping they keep a close eye on this
one, because I’m not down to die gloriously in combat against a superhuman.
Not yet anyways.
NUMBER ONE: SCP-2440 I’m pretty sure I’ve already fallen under
the influence of this one. Even before I tell you more, it’s likely
you have too. Anyone into SCP’s has a higher chance than
most to sustain 2440 infection. Let me explain why.
SCP-2440 is an extra-dimensional entity whose power increases proportional to the number
of people aware of it. Using a memetic agent that can be inserted
into any source of information, this SCP can control the actions of the infected to some
degree. Once it reaches a certain level of awareness,
it can extend its influence past infected individuals.
I’ll run down the scale that it seemingly works by.
At fewer than 200 infected, the individuals influenced will demonstrate a heightened interest
in horror, fantasy, and sci-fi media. They will express interest in writing and
sharing these works, which increases the infection rate.
See where I’m going with this? You’ve probably stumbled across the memetic
agent already. Meme warfare people, with horror, sci-fi,
and fantasy at the core. Once it amasses over 500 people, it can overtake
the body of an infected individual, and speak to all infected individuals at the same time.
On its journey to ten thousand infected, it gains reality-bending characteristics, and
becomes capable of manifesting itself outside of a host for short periods of time.
Currently, the Foundation believes SCP-2440 to have amassed over 10 000 people, meaning
it can control up to 1000 individuals at one time.
If it keeps up the exponential spread of memetic agent, it could control a projected one million
people. This would lead to an XK-class scenario, as
the anomaly would be fully capable of manifesting itself outside of a host.
We’d all be subject to its powers, and humanity would fall totally under its control.
The Foundation is currently administering anti-memetics and amnestics to all found to
be connected to 2440, but it it tough to contain the spread of information.
The internet tends to be resistant to censorship, after all.
An organization known as the Children of God worship 2440, and spread its materials as
often as possible. So, yeah, I dunno how long we have before
this one eclipses the Foundation. Maybe there’s Foundation materials already
infected by memetic. In that case, enjoy what time you have left!
And prepare to bask in the glory of 2440, our meme god!
Seems about right in 2019.
OUTRO Hopefully you feel a little more educated
after that list! Whether that means you feel safer or less
safe, I dunno! But at least you’re aware of the threats
flying your way daily. Good luck out there, folks.
In the meantime, I’m going to take a look at your comments that may illuminate some
of the finer points of the dangers at large: Darian V says: “The pornstache is great,
they’re just jealous hAHa” You’re goddamn right Darian. Excuse me while
I go listen to some suggestive guitar music. Jessica Thill says: “As long as I wasn’t
a d class personnel I would join SCP” Are… Are you sure about that? One heavy
dose of amnestics and you’d forget the difference between your ass and your head! D class, here
we come. Christopher Merlot says “Back in the 80’s
I gave myself to the -pure crystalline snow-” I bet you frequented a lot of dance clubs
too, eh? Destrate says: “Speed racer shirt is inappropriate
for a cool horror video. Darker shirts please. Good vid though.”
I’m allowed to have varied interests! Don’t anime-shame meI I’ll wear what I want! Thanks
for the compliment though! Master of despair says: “Code brown: find
a place to hide and leave an offering of booze on your front porch”
Does it have to be dark liquor, or does anything count? Code brown just makes me think of certain
spirits sharing the same colour.
And that is all the time we have for today! Thanks for watching, and I’ll see you next
time.
