Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: A fence with warning signs are to be secured at a 1-mile radius around the entity. Foundation agents disguised as park rangers are to be stationed around the perimeter and deter any trespassers. Foundation personnel are forbidden from entering the entity. Personnel that go into SCP-XXXX-B and disappears are to be designated lost. In case of a breach of non-Foundation personnel, any person that is affected by the anomalous properties is to be listed as missing. The rest are to be interviewed and given psychological evaluations. They are released after being administered class-a amnesiacs.

Description: SCP-XXXX-A is a large sinkhole discovered in █████ ██████ National Park on █/█/████. The object's attention was brought to the Unusual Incidents Unit's attention after ███ disappearances in the general area of SCP-XXXX-A. The case was handed over to the Foundation after the disappearances of the UIU's own personnel upon entering the entity.
Upon observation, SCP-XXXX-A appears as an ordinary sinkhole with an average diameter of 20 feet and a depth of 3 meters. Objects and animals that have entered the entity can be seen inside. Animals have been observed going out after entrance.
However, when a human enters, they do not appear in the hole and are never observed coming out of the entity in 99% of the observed entries. However, the anomalous properties do not affect 1% of those who enter it. They are transported to SCP-XXXX-B, a pocket dimension. It is speculated that the entity may have some sentience and judges the people that enter. It is believed that the entity subjectively thinks that 99% of the humans that enter it are "bad" and takes them away, while the 1% "good" people will be unaffected.

Foreword: Subject DXXXX35 is interviewed after Test XXXX-1 about observations of SCP-XXXX

<Begin Log>

Agent Snow: How was it in there?

DXXXX35: (Visibly uncomfortable and shaken) Well… Dark, for the most part. I could hear strange voices… And it felt like I was being watched-

Agent Snow: You said voices. Could you hear what they were saying?

DXXXX35: …

Agent Snow: Uh…

DXXXX35: (Subject begins swearing, screaming, and scratching at himself before tranquilized)

<End Log>

Closing Statement: The subject continued self-harming and expressing suicidal tendencies long after the test. The subject no longer responded to questioning and reverted into a catatonic shock. The subject was terminated soon after.

Results: Well so far we have no idea what the hell happened in there. Other than that our d-class went crazy and whatever. Welp, I guess for our next test we should put a much more strong-minded person down there. And a camera too. - Agent Snow
