ELEVEN! Now that I think about it, Eleven was an anomalous
entity that was never meant to escape the custody of a shadowy foundation… How STRANGE,
hmmm? She seems to be doing well enough for herself,
all things considered. Maybe some of these things can escape! I give
them my blessing. Y’all can let me know how bad of an idea
that is down in the comments. Hello horror heads, and welcome back to the
scariest channel on YouTube: Top 5 Scary Videos! I’m your horror host, Keegan Hughes, and
today we are, for the eleventh time, counting down the Top 5 SCP Monsters That Can Never
Escape! Check your locks and hide stuff in your socks,
because there are plenty of werid and wild anomalies absolutely chomping at the bit to
get out into the open air. Before we get started, make sure to give this
video a big thumbs up, and subscribe for more outrageous excellence!
Wicked, let’s begin. NUMBER FIVE: SCP-3253
The prison of ink and flesh. Sounds pretty wicked, right? I’d watch that movie. I’d
read that book. This anomaly is a phenomenon that only manifests
when one specific subject uses a hand-made needle to tattoo images onto another specific
subject’s skin. It’s very specific, and very odd.
The image tattooed must resemble an object, person, time, place, or phenomenon that the
tattooee has come into contact with and can recall.
Once the tattoo is finished, the object being represented by the tattoo will disappear,
and instead become part of the subject’s skin.
Indeed a fleshy, inky prison. This works for pretty much any physical thing,
including humans. If you want that thing back, it’s possible
to bring it back into existence by destroying the image.
However, whatever damage you do to the image, will also happen to the object itself.
If you laser-remove it, the object will be badly burned.
If you scratch it out completely, it will have those same scratches when returning to
the world. So if you were thinking you could use this
guy’s skin for storage, you better not want the object back in the same condition.
The properties of this anomaly were discovered when both subjects were being held as D-class.
The tattooee is an ex-yakuza, who collects tattoos of people he’s killed.
He believes that if he can get it out of his head and onto his skin, he can forget it.
Which, in a way is doubly true thanks to the anomalous properties!
After being a test subject for a redacted SCP, he had an image representing it tattooed
onto his skin. This resulted in the SCP disappearing from
containment, and a whole lot of confusion. The tattoo artist is a man implicated in a
series of murders, spending his time in D-class confinement giving other subjects tattoos.
For whatever reason, the effects will only manifest if these two men are the only ones
involved, and are using a hand-made tattoo needle.
However, the tattoo artist is currently in a self-induced coma, likely due to the stress
induced through testing 3253. Nobody’s sure as to when he may recover,
so in the meantime this is a relatively safe SCP.
Imagine what could be done with this power if they were both outside containment and
fully aware of the possibilities, though. NUMBER FOUR: SCP-3646
As if regular mosquitos weren’t bad enough, now we’ve got PHANTOM MOSQUITOS.
Thankfully, these nasty nits are easy to tell apart from the generic ones.
Pale white colouration and an odd, feather appendage extruding from the abdomen will
tell you if you’re dealing with ghostly bloodsuckers or not.
Instances of 3646 do not show signs of aging, have an unknown lifespan, and are sexless.
They reproduce via anomalous means, as large amounts of new instances will appear on or
near a corpse killed by other 3646s. All of this is anomalous, yes, but the real
weirdness begins after one dies. After brain functions cease, the next organism
to come into physical contact with the corpse will display a progression of anomalous symptoms.
There are six stages in all, getting progressively worse over the course of days.
Stage one has the subject begin experiencing mild auditory hallucinations, like the sound
of a mosquito flying past their ears. Stage two sees these hallucinations double
in frequency, often causing what seems like simultaneous noises. The subject will also
develop seemingly permanent goosebumps, and will try to cover exposed skin as much as
possible. The next stage begins producing tactile hallucinations
on the subject’s limbs and neck, causing extreme agitation. These physical sensations
can be stopped by swatting at their locations. Then, the hallucinatons become constant, leading
to sleep deprivation and panic, as well as intense itching all over.
By stage 5, welts similar to regular mosquito bites will develop all over their body, and
subjects report that the buzzing has intensified into something that can be described as screaming.
Then, in the final stage, all of the blood in their body will start to dematerialize,
leading to complete exsanguination and death. If anyone can think of a worse way to go,
please let me know. Oof, invisible, unkillable mosquitos draining
every last drop. I’m imagining a deflation scenario like
the one from the Spookies, or maybe Wax Mask. Good lord.
NUMBER THREE: SCP-4308 The classic magical guitar trope! Every high-schooler’s
dream! I’m gonna write some songs to express my
innermost feelings, and finally everyone’s gonna understand me!
In fact, they better do more than understand me, they need to experience the exact thing
that I’m experiencing! Cue maniacal teen laughter.
4308 is a black Steinberger Sceptre, that exhibits anomalous properties when played.
Anyone subject to music produced by it will enter an illusory state representing the tune
of the song in terms of emotion. So if the song is happy, they’ll experience
an elating illusion, if it’s sad they’ll be exposed to some downer dreams.
Either way, the illusory state will cease when the sound has stopped being produced.
The player, however, is unaffected by this. Otherwise it might end in some sort of infinite
loop of emotions. JUST. LIKE. LIFE. Too much?
The guitar was found in the posession of Duke, a moody, melancholy guitarist who seems to
want to impose his highschool-tier sadness and anger on everyone around.
He was reported to have performed songs like Lonesome, which made people in the crowd disappear
into shadows and think lonely thoughts, Overshadowed, which made people think about childhood friends
that were treated better than them, Horrible Pain, which seemed to bring up images of screaming,
gunshots, knife wounds, and corpses, and Heartbroken, which literally had a person envision the
removal and shattering of their own heart. Subtle, subtle stuff!
It should be safe in the Foundation’s security locker, but if a major, moody star got their
hands on this, we’d be in for one hell of a ride.
NUMBER TWO: SCP-4106 The tragic tale of the lovebird.
Aw man. 4106 is a particularly smart and strong bird
that only likes one researcher. Anyone else will get bit, resulting in the
manifestation of 4106-1, another love bird. This bird will bite and hurt 4106, and then
they will cuddle for about an hour before it flies away.
Sounds like some of my old flames… Kidding! Maybe.
When 4106-1 flies away, it cannot be stopped as it seems to be able to fly right through
solid objects. While hard to contain, this doesn’t seem
too dangerous, right? It’s just a couple of lovebirds, essentially
being lovebirds! Well, the major focus of this story might
be on 4106 itself, but it presents plenty of ideas about the functioning of the Foundation
that have wider-reaching implications. In fact, this entry is a story of the loss
of funding leading to the downfall of security protocol.
Originally, 4106 was classified as safe. If kept in a cage with electromagnetic locks,
and taken care of appropriately, there was zero chance of escape, or of manifesting 4106-1.
However, as government funding and other resources decreased, it became harder to contain 4106.
Eventually it was upgraded to Euclid, and then Keter.
The electromagnetic locks were replaced with padlocks, and staffing on-site was reduced.
Soon, it was moved to a small, remote shack with little-to-no actual security.
If the Foundation was having so much trouble containing a slightly-above-average lovebird,
imagine what was happening with more dangerous and volatile entities elsewhere!
Not ideal, as you might be able to imagine. If Mr. Seeds over here can just fly right
out, I’d really rather not be anywhere near any of the other sites.
If we’re to follow through on this canon, we’d also find out that the Global Occult
Organization was given free reign by governments to destroy entities wherever appropriate.
And knowing the GOC, wherever appropriate means at the drop of a hat.
That’s a dark, dark universe we’re peering into.
All because of a little bird! NUMBER ONE: SCP-4798
Oh you're into poetry? Name five poets!
Recite a stanza! Tell me about transgenic poetry!
Oh you can’t? FAKE POETRY FAN OVER HERE DOESN’T EVEN KNOW
ABOUT THE ANOMALOUS PROCESS OF USING WRITTEN WORD TO SYNTHESIZE NUCLEOTIDES IN DNA.
Ok, never doing that bit again. SCP-4798 is a population of anomalous organisms,
mostly flora, that exist as a product of transgenic poetry.
It can spread to other biological organisms, as it is pseudo-memetic in nature.
This leads to mutations in said organisms, often resulting in anomalous properties.
This is especially obvious in humans, as they tend to demonstrate a heightened understanding
of the meaning and semantic nature of 4798. And of course, you should always be wary of
someone who suddenly claims to understand poetry.
The anomalous properties are varied across different subjects, ranging from relatively
harmless to extremely dangerous. Harmless instances can be stuff like creating
specific weather patterns to draw lines in sand, or only being capable of existing while
standing on paper. Dangerous ones can be expressed by causing
seizures in nearby organisms, and writing poems in the flesh of folks.
Whatever is causing all of this wants to express itself through poetry.
Violent, transgenic poetry. Brush up on your literary devices, and meet
me in the library.
So? What do you think? Odd enough for you?
Have you heard of any of these skips before? Are there any that you’d like to see covered
next time? What’s your favourite dessert?
Let me know down in the comments! Speaking of comments, let’s take a quick
look at some of your more luxurious ones from Top 5 Disgusting Horror Movies That Will Change
You: Brazil Bred says: “Random thought, lettuce
doesn’t deserve to be on tacos” Big agree! Crush some tortilla chips on top
for twice the crunch and twice the flavour!!! Clay Schuetz says: “I’m trying to think
of the most traumatizing horror film i’ve ever seen, get back to you on it, might take
a very long think session lol” It’s not a super easy thing to come up with!
Plus, it tends to be pretty subjective, based on people’s individual fears.
LordSabo says “Imagine watching Antichrist in the cinema, with your family.”
Who in their right mind would bring the family to a Lars von Trier flick? Forget Antichrist,
imagine Nymphomaniac! Elly O says “This is not the Firefly series
I know… lmao” No Nathan Fillion on this trip! No intergalactic
travel either… Dknight11d_galaxy wolf29 says “ :3 “
Garfield? Is that you? And that’s all the time we have for today!
