Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: EUCLID

Special Containment Procedures: Due to the nature of SCP-XXXX there is no substantial containment procedure at this time.

Description: SCP-XXXX is what can most closely be described as a dream experienced by a seemingly random variety of humans. Though the only details that can be obtained is through “survivors” of SCP-XXXX, research personnel are beginning to grasp a clearer understanding of its functionality. Gaining information on SCP-XXXX has been exceedingly difficult as most who are believed to have experienced it have failed to wake, falling into an incurable coma. Through the use of online message boards, field investigators were able to find a comparatively small group of individuals who all state they have experienced the same dream, or The Spiral Doors, as they commonly refer to it.
Within the dream, every individual has stated they begin in a lush countryside setting standing before a 19th century farm house, completed with 3 stories and a wrap around porch. Upon close inspection it appears to be a normal house. Looking through the windows reveals average furnishings for the time period, even a large barn and rolling farmland behind where it sits. All in all, completely normal. Where it starts to get weird, is the moment an individual decides to step inside. Those who don’t report they simply woke up after their decision.
Once inside, each individual reports they are met with, not the lovely 19th century furnishings seen from the outside windows, but instead a large round room, completely foreign in shape and size from the supposed layout of the house they had just seen. A look around brings to sight a variety of different modeled doors encircling the room, along with a spiral staircase reaching up along the circumference. The doors continue intermittently following the staircase upwards. From here, no doors appear to be the same. In the very center stands an elevator shaft. The doors strand closed with a sign that reads: “OUT OF ORDER”. Should they thing to turn around, they find the front door they just stepped through, to have vanished.
At this point, all individuals perceive a different variety of doors, each description of the first few never matching another’s. Although, all report feeling a sudden sense of dread. The quick feeling of a fight or flight response urging them toward any door as fast as possible. Most say they beeline for the closest door, others making it a couple flights before giving into the severely uneasy feeling. Some say a few doors were locked before finding an open one. From here each specific experience varies. In summary what the doors lead to are a multitude of different rooms or buildings. Some are as average as a bedroom for even bathroom, others are complete apartment complexes or businesses. It is though that each door leads to a specific kind of building space, be it large or small. The only access to these spaces is through one of the doors from the spiral staircase. Though the spaces often have windows, nothing but blackness can be perceived through them. Electricity and lighting appear to function normally.
None can say why the center makes them feel so frightened as none have seen anything to provoke such. Each one simply wakes up after exploring enough to happen across a door that leads back outside. Each description of the outside door is different from the other, leading researchers to believe that each layout of doors, regardless of similarly experienced rooms, is random.
Each individual explains they see no people, animals, or even plants during their explorations. It is thought that each instance of “The Spiral Doors” is specifically tailored to each individual and perhaps those in a coma have not been lucky enough to find the way out. However since those asleep cannot speak for themselves, that actual number of those affected is a matter of theory. There is no clear pattern of those interviewed among the “survivors” and all state they never had the dream again.
There is no solid way to contain SCP-XXXX at this time. While it is not thought to be highly dangerous as none are sure to have actually died from it, any information that could lead to a pattern or clearer understanding would greatly benefit those who are believed to have experienced the (as of now) negative effects.

ADDED NOTES:
5/30/21
-Since its discovery two years prior, a small yet noticeable amount of humans have fallen into comas, suspected to be the result of SCP-XXXX.

6/7/2021
- Field investigators have begun looking into a specific individual who is said to have experienced SCP-XXXX more than once, the only known to do so. Individual will be brought to research site [REDACTED] for interview and testing.

Author notes:
More scp’s relating to this particular one are in the works, as well as interview and report documents, also a tale and various refinements.
