Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX remains on Site-XXXX-Δ and is to be monitored by Task Force-XXXX-Σ at all times. Due to SCP-XXXX’s unpredictable nature, only Class-D personnel may enter SCP-XXXX’s confines during testing; no other personnel may enter, even in case of emergency.
Site-XXXX-Δ is an observational structure constructed mainly for testing purposes involving the –probable— memetic effects of SCP-XXXX. All land within fifteen (15) kilometers of Site-XXXX- Δ is to remain uninhabited and free of buildings or other structures. Task Force-XXXX- Σ is to be on the lookout for any entities exiting SCP-XXXX, all entities must be terminated on site after Incident-XXXX-3. (See Incident Report XXXX-3)
All D-class personnel used in testing are to be taken in for psycho-evaluation and questioning, then placed in observational quarantine for ninety (90) days following an experiment.
Description: SCP-XXXX is what appears to be an abandoned USSR scientific laboratory and observation tower located near Подзь, Russia. SCP-XXXX appears to be in a state of relative disrepair, most likely not having been inhabited since the fall of the USSR in the 1980s. SCP-XXXX has three sections: an auditorium located in a below-ground level, a laboratory and observational chamber, and the observational planetarium in the upper, third-level dome.
SCP-XXXX has no effects unless a human being enters either the auditorium or observation dome. Upon entering observational dome, the subject will see a varying image of a being who claims to be varying forms of the Christian Devil and associated “arch fiends”, henceforth referred to as SCP-XXXX-B. SCP-XXXX-B will change with every sighting, no two “devils” appearing in the same form. SCP-XXXX-B will attempt to convince the subject to sacrifice themselves to SCP-XXXX-B. Not all subjects are convinced, but SCP-XXXX does affect those who glimpse it, sending most into an irrevocable psychotic or violent state.
Upon entering the auditorium (only after entering the observational dome), the subject will be met with intense heat and a light exceeding five hundred (500) lumens. Their corpse will later appear outside of SCP-XXXX, lying in a resting position approximately five hundred (500) meters away.
Chronological History:
03/06/20██: A pair of juveniles from a nearby village reportedly discover and enter SCP-XXXX. It is unknown what occurred within SCP-XXXX at this time, but it was reported that one of the juveniles was found severely burned and maimed past recognition outside of SCP-XXXX. Local authorities are informed of a raging fire at an abandoned USSR scientific facility, and a volunteer fire brigade is dispatched to the area. Upon arrival, no evidence of a fire can be found, save for the young victim’s body. Three (3) members of the brigade reportedly enter SCP-XXXX and find no evidence of a fire within, then leave without incident.
03/08/20██: One member of the fire brigade, his name Vladov ███████, is reported missing, then discovered by village officials wandering the site with severe psychological trauma.
03/09/20██: Foundation authorities are notified of SCP-XXXX after Vladov ███████ commits suicide in an alleged satanic ritual, despite being a devout member of the Eastern Orthodox Church and previously sound of mind.
03/01/20██: Foundation teams survey SCP-XXXX and the land surrounding and find no anomalous activity. Agent ██████ enters SCP-XXXX, his body is later found burned and maimed outside of SCP-XXXX, similar to that of the juvenile who entered SCP-XXXX earlier this month.
06/██/20██: Site-XXXX-Δ is constructed.
06/13/20██: The first experiment involving a Class-D member is completed. (See Experiment Report XXXX-A)
06/22/20██: The second test involving a Class-D member is completed. (See Experiment Report XXXX-B)
07/09/20██: The first test using a remote-controlled surveillance robot is completed. (See Experiment Report XXXX-C)
12/01/20██: Incident XXXX-1 occurs at 1225 hours during the third experiment involving a Class-D member. (See Experiment Report XXXX-D/Incident Report XXXX-1)
12/27/20██: Incident XXXX-2 occurs at 2300 hours. (See Incident Report XXXX-2)
01/02/20██: Incident XXXX-3 occurs at 1402 hours. All personnel on Site-XXXX-Δ now required to remain within Site-XXXX-Δ during observation. (See Incident Report XXXX-3)
██/03/20██: The fourth test involving a Class-D member is completed. (See Experiment Report XXXX-E) All further testing temporarily prohibited by orders of 05 ████. (See Incident Report XXXX-4)
SCP-XXXX has remained inactive since incident XXXX-D-Epsilon on 01/11/20██. (See Incident Report XXXX-Epsilon)
[Experiment Report XXXX-A:
Subject: D-0556, a 35-year-old Caucasian female convicted of two counts of aggravated manslaughter.
Overseers: Dr. ████, Dr. ██ ███, and Agent MacKulla.
Items in Possession: D-0556 is allowed one (1) operational flashlight, two (2) spare AA batteries, one (1) small fire extinguisher, one (1) operational two-way radio broadcasting device, one (1) granola bar, and one (1) standard back-pack in which to carry said items. D-0556 is also attached to a buckle harness which is connected to a pulley system of seven-hundred and fifty (750) meters of rope. (The buckle harness allows for easy retrieval if necessary). One (1) wireless video system is mounted on the subject’s chest, which broadcasts live color video image to the overseers.
1100: D-0556 refuses to enter SCP-XXXX, claiming it gives her a feeling of unease. After being instructed to enter by Agent MacKulla, D-0556 brakes down emotionally and refuses, yet again, to enter.
1115: After a session of “convincing” performed by Agent MacKulla, D-0556 enters SCP-XXXX willingly. Once contact is established via two-way radio, D-0556 is instructed to explore the area. Directly before D-0556, on the recording, there are a pair of double doors, one of which is standing ajar. D-0556 hesitates, then begins down the hallway to her left and up a flight of curved, concrete stairs.
1119: The subject enters a circular room, about 250 feet in diameter, with a large, glass observation chamber at the center. Desks and up-turned chairs are littered about the room. D-0556 is instructed to search the room. The subject approaches the circular observation chamber at the center of the room which has been turned opaque with dust.
1128: D-0556 has finished searching the room, finding nothing more than standard 1950s USSR laboratory equipment in varying states of disrepair.
1130: The subject happens upon a rusted, iron door which reveals another, curved flight of stairs. The overseers instruct D-0556 to take the stairs, which she refuses, breaking into another emotional state.
1151: The subject finishes her episode and is yet again convinced by Agent MacKulla to continue on. D-0556 scales the stairs and finds another rusted door. The rusted door is opened, at which point the video-system fails.
The following is the conversation between the overseers and D-0556 over the two-way radio between 1151 and 1204 hours:
Agent MacKulla: Our video system has stopped operation, please head back down the stairs so we can reestablish a signal.
D-0556: [silence]
Agent MacKulla: D-0556. Do you copy?
D-0556: [silence]
Agent MacKulla: I swear to god I’ll drag you out of that building and—!
D-0556: [Inaudible speech]
Dr. ████: Could you repeat that?
D-0556: [radio static] Midway the path of life…I find me in a darkling room astray… [static] And flesh…and flesh… [unintelligible whispers]
Agent MacKulla: What the [expletive] are you doing?!
Dr. ████: MacKulla! We need to let her speak; this could be important!
[extended pause]
D-0556: You struggle to cling to your tiny lives…but when the song of death rings true…she is a vulture…every day she sinks…closer…closer. [static]
Agent MacKulla: Communicate my [expletive]! I’m going to string her up by her [redacted] and whip the [expletive] out of her! [Signals to monitoring team to begin extraction proceedures]
Dr. ████: No! MacKulla!
D-0556: You brought this upon yourselves! I will protect you from bloating in the sun! [loud, repetitive banging] Declare me who ye are and of what purpose! [crunching] [laughing] [heavy thud]
[end of log]
1206: D-0556 is extracted via buckle harness from SCP-XXXX in a catatonic state, but physically unharmed.
1215: The subject awakens and begins weeping, obviously distressed.
1342: The subject agrees to an interview.
The following is the interview which took place at 1345, between D-0556 and Dr. ██ ███.
Dr. ██ ███: What was the meaning of what you said after the video system lost signal?
D-0556: W-when?
Dr. ██ ███: After you went up the second flight of stairs.
D-0556: I didn’t say anything. [pause] He was talking to me.
Dr. ██ ███: Who? Agent MacKulla?
D-0556: No, not Mr. MacKulla. [shudders] Didn’t you see him?
Dr. ██ ███: See who?
D-0556: He was in the observatory! [the subject becomes distressed] [subject looks at camera] He was…he was sick. His skin…was rotting off…his eyes melted out of his head. [subject begins crying]
Dr. ██ ███: There was someone in the building with you?
D-0556: [subject nods]
Dr. ██ ███: And they were speaking to you?
D-0556: [gasping and shuddering] He whispered in—in—in my ear…and—and…he was so close I could—could feel him. [gasps] He smelled like—like [expletive]. [gasps] He said I don’t deserve to—to be alive. I’m a sinner who should burn in hell. [gasps] [subject stops speaking due to tears]
Dr. ██ ███: [looks to the camera] [adjusts papers] [inaudible mumbling] You didn’t speak into the radio at all during this time?
D-0556: [subject shakes head]
Dr. ██ ███: [plays radio recording]
D-0556: [distraught] I didn’t say those things! I didn’t say those things! [gasps]
Dr. ██ ███: [looks at the camera] Could you just describe the man in the observatory again?
D-0556: [long pause] His body was—was rotting…like—like—like a zombie, and he—he called himself…Beelzebub. [crying] [screams] I don’t want to do this anymore!
Dr. ██ ███: [looks at the camera] I hate my job.
[end of log]
D-0556 had been transferred to quarantine for observation.

[Experiment Report XXXX-B:
Subject: D-9011, a 46-year-old male of African descent convicted of aggravated assault on a police officer and second-degree murder.
Overseers: Dr. ████ and Agent MacKulla.
Items in Possession: D-9011 is allowed one (1) operational flashlight, two (2) spare AA batteries, one (1) small fire extinguisher, one (1) operational two-way radio broadcasting device, and one (1) standard backpack in which to carry said items. D-9011 is also attached to a buckle harness which is connected to a pulley system of seven-hundred and fifty (750) meters of rope. One (1) wireless video system is mounted on the subject’s chest, which broadcasts live, color video to the overseers.
1300: D-9011 enters SCP-XXXX begrudgingly after reporting that the site gives him a feeling of unease. Once contact is established via two-way radio, D-9011 is instructed to explore the area. Directly before D-9011, there are a pair of double doors one of which is standing ajar. The area appears identical to D-0556’s visual feed during Experiment XXXX-A. D-9011 is instructed to continue through the hallway to his left and up the flight of stairs.
1304: The subject enters the same circular laboratory as described in Experiment Report XXXX-A. D-9011 approaches the glass observation chamber at the center and attempts to see within it to no avail.
1306: D-9011 is instructed to make his way toward the iron door at the opposite side of the laboratory. The overseers inform D-9011 that video connection may be lost upon opening the door and be that the case, he will be extracted within five (5) minutes, to which D-9011 seems indifferent.
1307: D-9011 opens the iron door, after which video connection is not lost. The overseers instruct the subject to continue up the stairs.
1308: The flight of stairs is curved and leads to what is presumably the observational planetarium at the highest level. A second, rusted iron door appears at the top of the stairs on the video feed.
The following is the conversation between the overseers and D-9011 over the two-way radio and video surveillance between 1307 and 1315 hours:
Dr. ████: Wow, alright. Our video connection has not been lost, please continue up the stairs.
D-9011: Whatever. [continues up the stairs]
Dr. ████: MacKulla, are you seeing this?
Agent MacKulla: I’m seeing a flight of stairs, ████.
Dr. ████: No, look, there’s the other door.
Agent MacKulla: Good, get him in there.
Dr. ████: Subject, please open the door.
D-9011: [opens the door] [video connection is lost]
Agent MacKulla: Dammit!
Dr. ████: It’s ok, agent. [pause] Subject, please update us on the contents of the room.
D-9011: [silence]
Dr. ████: I repeat, please update us on the contents of the room or we will be forced to extract you.
D-9011: [static] Turning and turning in the widening gyre. The falcon cannot hear the falconer.
Dr. ████: A description of the room, subject. Don’t make us get hostile.
D-9011: [shouting] Things fall apart! [pause] [quieter] The center cannot hold, and mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.
Agent MacKulla: For [expletive]’s sake! Just [expletive]ing pull him out of there. I don’t have time for this! [motions]
Dr. ████: No, no, no, no! Wait, wait…wait! It’s happening again, we gotta keep him in there.
[extended silence]
D-9011: The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere the ceremony of innocence is drowned…the best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.
Dr. ████: Could it be? [pause] I recognize that…he’s…he’s reciting a poem. Yates or Yeats or something.
Agent MacKulla: I don’t give a [expletive] about poetry, doctor. I’m here to keep these [expletive]s cooperating. Pull him out!
Dr. ████: No! Leave him in! We still have two more minutes. [turns to monitoring team] Someone write down “Yeats”, this is important. [motions to monitoring team]
D-9011: You’re so full of passion, Agent MacKulla…so quick to pull the trigger, to push the button.
Agent MacKulla: What? [pause] What the [expletive]?
D-9011: Come inside, agent. Take a look.
Agent MacKulla: [shouting] Pull him out! I don’t give a [expletive]! [unintelligible] [commotion]
D-9011: Something slouches toward Bethlehem to be born.
[end of log]
1316: D-9011 is pulled via buckle harness out of SCP-XXXX, but walks the remainder of the way, unharmed. Subject appears unshaken emotionally and mentally, in the same condition as before entering SCP-XXXX or viewing what has been deemed SCP-XXXX-B.
1318: The subject agrees to an interview.
The following is the interview which took place at 1320 hours:
Dr. ████: Do you remember anything after entering the planetarium?
D-9011: Yuh.
Dr. ████: Do you remember saying anything over the radio?
D-9011: Nah, the radio cut out, remember?
Dr. ████: No, that was just the video log. Do you remember saying anything to us over the radio after you entered the planetarium?
D-9011: Nah man, you don’t see what I’m saying. The radio was all static-y and [expletive]. [expletive] didn’t work.
Dr. ████: So, you didn’t attempt to contact us with it?
D-9011: [sucks teeth] Nah man, [expletive] didn’t work.
Dr. ████: [sighs] [shuffles papers] Can you read this to me? [places a sheet of paper in front of D-9011, which, for the record, was printed with a copy of W. B. Yeats’ poem, “The Second Coming”.]
D-9011: [examines paper] [in a stiff, monotonous voice] Turning and turning in the wid…widening…gear? Jyre? [sucks teeth] Man, [expletive] this. [leans back]
Dr. ████: [removes paper] I take it you’re not familiar with Yeats?
D-9011: Man, what are you talking about?
Dr. ████: [plays radio recording]
D-9011: [pause] I didn’t say that [expletive].
Dr. ████: I believe you.
D-9011: [silence]
D-9011: Why you keep asking me about what I said? I saw some [expletive] up there, and you just [expletive]ing asking me about some [expletive]ing poem? Why’d you send me up there anyway?
Dr. ████: [silence] [turns to Dr. ██ ███]
Dr. ██ ███: [leans forward] Our previous subject reported that she saw a rotting corpse in the planetarium. Did you see the same thing?
Dr. ████: ███, don’t tell him—
D-9011: [interrupting] I saw the Devil.
Dr. ████: [unintelligible]
Dr. ██ ███: Would you describe what you saw? In as much detail as you can, please.
D-9011: [smiles] It was just a big-[expletive] room with concrete and [expletive] everywhere. Real dark, too. Like I needed my flashlight and [expletive], that dark. And I saw the Devil. He was sitting in a big, golden chair wearing a red suit. Like Armani-level suit and [expletive]. [pause] And he was white.
Dr. ██ ███: Caucasian?
D-9011: Yeah, whatever. At first, I’ll admit it, he had me a little scared. I ain’t been in a [DATA EXPUNGED] before. [laughs] But he had a [expletive]-ton of gold rings on and he was like ‘come here’, so I did that [expletive], you know. He told me I had done some wrong in my life and that the world had ‘damned’ me or whatever. He said I could have anything I wanted if I gave him my soul. I ain’t been a good Christian for a while now, so I thought God ain’t gonna let me get into heaven now or ever, so I made a deal with the [expletive]ing Devil. [laughs] [Expletive]’s crazy, man.
Dr. ██ ███: What did you ask for? In exchange for your soul?
D-9011: [Expletive], I ain’t stupid. I asked for my [expletive]ing freedom. [lifts hand cuffs and shakes them] Devil’s a [expletive]ing liar, though. Never trust a [expletive]ing white man.
[end of log]
0115: D-9011 suffers a heart attack in his quarantine quarters and is unable to be resuscitated.]
[Experiment Report XXXX-C:
Subject: Observational Probe Cerberus (XXXX-Π) equipped with audio, visual, and recording capabilities. Cerberus was manufactured with limbs allowing it to climb stairs, a swiveling grasper attachment allowing it to open doors and move objects, a four (4) volt lamplight used to illuminate the are ahead of it, and a buckle harness allowing to be retrieved if necessary.
Pilots: Dr. ████, Dr. ██ ███, and Agent MacKulla.
Note: To prevent loss of valuable information in case of video transmission disconnection, Cerberus was piloted using infrared and night-vision overlaid camera transmission, while a video recording of the experiment was stored on Cerberus for later viewing.
The following is a description of the infrared video version of Experiment XXXX-C:
1300: Cerberus (piloted by Dr. ██ ███) enters SCP-XXXX with the intent of locating and viewing SCP-XXXX-B on the third floor.
1309: Cerberus finishes its ascension of the stairs and enters the second-floor laboratory.
1310: Dr. ██ ███ has difficulty piloting Cerberus around the disarray of laboratory materials.
1321: Cerberus reaches the door to the planetarium. Dr. ████ pilots the swiveling grasper attachment and attempts to open the door.
1345: Dr. ████ opens the door and Cerberus begins its ascent to the planetarium.
1354: Cerberus reaches the second door at the top of the stairs which leads into the planetarium proper. Dr. ████ pilots the swiveling grasper attachment and attempts to open the door.
1408: Dr. ████ opens the door and Cerberus enters the planetarium proper. There is nothing within the circular room. Cerberus skirts the perimeter.
1410: The infrared camera picks up a large, ovular mass approximately two (2) meters tall and one (1) meter wide at the center of the planetarium. The mass registers at 1370 degrees Celsius or 2500 degrees Fahrenheit.
1411: Cerberus is piloted nearer the mass. No light emission is detected by the night-vision camera.
1415: Cerberus performs a perimeter check of the planetarium once more, finding no other detectable traces of abnormal heat. The mass remains at the center of the room.
1445: After observing the mass for thirty (30) minutes, Cerberus is piloted out of the planetarium.
1503: Cerberus exits SCP-XXXX.
The following is a description of the color video version of Experiment XXXX-C:
1300: Cerberus (piloted by Dr. ██ ███) enters SCP-XXXX with the intent of locating and viewing SCP-XXXX-B on the third floor. The double doors which lead into the auditorium are closed.
1309: Cerberus finishes its ascension of the stairs and enters the second-floor laboratory.
1310: Dr. ██ ███ has trouble piloting Cerberus around the disarray of laboratory materials including over-turned chairs, broken glass, and up-ended desks. Cerberus is piloted past the glass observation chamber and over a chair. As Cerberus mounts the chair, a dark figure of slender form (like that of an eel) and approximately two (2) meters long can be seen moving within the glass observation chamber. (This is of note and is intended for further investigation.) The figure within the observation chamber does not register on the infrared version, likely due to the thickness of the glass.
1321: Cerberus reaches the door to the planetarium. Dr. ████ pilots the swiveling grasper attachment and attempts to open the door.
1345: Dr. ████ opens the door and Cerberus begins its ascent to the planetarium.
1354: Cerberus reaches the second door at the top of the stairs which leads into the planetarium proper. Dr. ████ pilots the swiveling grasper attachment and attempts to open the door.
1408: Dr. ████ opens the door and Cerberus enters the planetarium proper. The room itself is comprised of bare cement and contains no light source except for Cerberus’ light attachment. Cerberus skirts the perimeter.
1411: Cerberus is piloted to the center of the room which contains nothing.
1415: Cerberus performs a perimeter check of the planetarium once more, finding nothing.
1445: Cerberus observes the center of the room for thirty (30) minutes, which is empty, and is then piloted out of the planetarium.
1503: Cerberus exits SCP-XXXX.

[Experiment Report XXXX-D:
Subject: D-1134, a 21-year-old male of mixed race convicted of burglary with a deadly weapon, capital murder, and desecration of a corpse.
Overseers: Dr. ████ and Agent MacKulla.
Items in Possession: D-1134 is allowed one (1) operational flashlight, two (2) spare AA batteries, and one (1) operational two-way radio broadcasting device. D-1134 is also attached to a buckle harness which is connected to a pulley system of seven-hundred and fifty (750) meters of rope. One (1) wireless video system is mounted on the subject’s chest; it records color video and infrared, both transmitting live and recording video data for later viewing.
1100: D-1134 enters SCP-XXXX and is instructed to go through the double doors and enter the auditorium. D-1134 does as instructed. The auditorium is as the original foundation survey team described it, a large, deep chamber with approximately fifty rows of built-in seating arranged in a circular formation around a lower, central stage.
1121: D-1134 completes a thorough investigation of the auditorium and finds nothing of interest. The subject is instructed to return to the entrance, then use the stairs to reach the second floor.
1123: The subject reaches the third-floor laboratory and finds it in its regular state of disarray. The overseers instruct D-1134 to investigate the room.
1140: D-1134 completes a thorough investigation of the laboratory and finds nothing of interest. The subject is then instructed to attempt to see into the glass observation chamber.
1141: D-1134 attempts to see within the observation chamber. It is recorded that there is no liquid within the chamber, neither the bottom nor the top of the chamber can be seen by D-1134 or the camera.
1150: The observational chamber is abandoned.
1151: D-1134 enters the stairway to the planetarium.
1154: D-1134 enters the planetarium and the video feed cuts out shortly after showing an empty room illuminated by D-1134’s flashlight.
The following is the conversation between the overseers and D-1134 over the two-way radio supplemented by in-room CCTV surveillance between 1154 and 1225 hours:
Dr. ████: Dammit! We get closer each time…It’s like SCP-XXXX-B lets us see a little more with each D-Class. Oh [expletive], the mic’s hot. [pause] D-1134, please keep us updated on your experiences if possible.
Agent MacKulla: We still planning on leaving him in there?
Dr. ████: Keep your voice down, MacKulla. [quietly] He comes out on his own terms; we’re not extracting him.
Agent MacKulla: [quietly] And if he dies in there?
Dr. ████: [long pause] Then it’s just another D down the drain. That’s what they’re supposed to do.
D-1134: [profuse radio static] [unintelligible]
Dr. ████: Could you repeat that?
D-1134: [continued radio static] [unintelligible]
Dr. ████: We have a loose connection, could you try to speak more clearly? [mumbling] If that is you.
D-1134: [radio crackles] And I saw heaven opened…behold, a white horse…he who sat…he judges and wages war…his eyes are a flame of fire [extended pause] [radio static] He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood…his name is called…Mephistopheles…Naamah…the black god…I am.
Dr. ████: Write it down, write it down! [gestures to the monitoring team] I don’t care how you spell it!
D-1134: [laughing] Are you entertained? [radio static] Come inside, one who calls himself Jason MacKulla. [laughing] Come, be a disciple.
Agent MacKulla: [slamming sound] I [expletive]ing hate this! When do I get my [expletive]ing transfer!? [turns to camera] I know one of you [expletive]s is watching this! Give me my [expletive]ing transfer!
Dr. ████: Shut up, MacKulla! [turns to monitoring team] Write it down!
D-1134: [static] All my burning anger! For all the earth will be devoured by the fire! [laughs] Take your puppet back.
[extended break in activity, duration: 6 minutes]
Dr. ████: Oh [expletive]! [expletive]! The video’s back up!
Agent MacKulla: What is it?
Dr. ████: I think it’s the laboratory. Look. [points at monitoring screen] There’s the observation chamber. [pause] Yeah, it’s the lab.
D-1134: Hello?
[silence in the monitoring room]
D-1134: Hello?
Dr. ████: Yes, hello. Um, we’re still here.
D-1134: I would like to go back to the auditorium now.
[extended silence]
Dr. ████: [whispered] Have you ever heard him talk like that?
Agent MacKulla: [shakes head]
D-1134: I would like to go back to the auditorium now.
Agent MacKulla: Yeah, we heard you! We’re deliberating.
[unintelligible chatter from the monitoring room]
Dr. ████: Please tell us what you saw in the planetarium.
D-1134: I would like to go back to the auditorium now.
[extended silence]
Dr. ████: Report what you saw in the planetarium or we’ll extract you.
D-1134: I can show you in the auditorium.
[unintelligible chatter from the monitoring room] [sounds of disagreement]
Dr. ████: Authorized. You have five minutes.
[extended silence as D-1134 makes his way to the auditorium] [auditorium doors open]

[Incident Report XXXX-1:
Date: 12/01/20██ at 1225 hours
Description: Most of the CCTV cameras monitoring SCP-XXXX were able to capture the incident as it occurred, as well as the live broadcast to the overseers of Experiment XXXX-D. At exactly 12:25, a sharp increase in heat in the lower-level auditorium of SCP-XXXX was captured by test subject D-1134’s infrared and heat monitoring system. At its highest point, the auditorium was recorded at a temperature exceeding seventeen hundred (1700) degrees Celsius before the transmission to the overseers was cut off and the equipment destroyed. The CCTV cameras used to monitor SCP-XXXX from Site-XXXX-Δ captured a bright light (of approximately five hundred (500) lumens) emitted from within SCP-XXXX, its origin most likely from the auditorium. The entire CCTV surveillance system then collectively lost record of the time between 12:25:58 and 12:26:39. During this time, the test subject’s body appeared in the snow outside of SCP-XXXX, this sudden appearance is captured on the CCTV at 12:26:39.
Test subject was examined and determined to have died instantly. All equipment and items were melted past foreseeable salvage. Though no fire was recorded within SCP-XXXX, the subject’s body is burned past recognition with strong evidence of fire damage, not just heat. Subject’s remains scheduled for incineration.

[Incident Report XXXX-2:
Date: 12/27/20██ at 2300 hours
Description: CCTV surveillance monitoring SCP-XXXX from Site-XXXX-Δ capture a bright light, similar to that of Incident XXXX-1, this instance exceeding six hundred (600) lumens. Most major personnel were as██p, but twelve (12) guards belonging to Task Force-XXXX-Σ were left awake to monitor the CCTV and stand alert. This included Task Force Leader, Agent Jason MacKulla, who was alone in Monitoring Room 2. Immediately following the incident, Site-XXXX-Δ was put on high alert until 12/28/20██ at 1600, at which point it was determined that nothing further would occur.
Addendum: After close examination of the security footage within Monitoring Room 2, it was determined that Agent Jason MacKulla whispered the phrase, “I praise a mutilated earth”, directly after witnessing the flash of light from the CCTV and directly before sounding the alarm and placing Site-XXXX-Δ on high alert. This examination was performed 08/19/20██, after incident XXXX-Epsilon.

[Incident Report XXXX-3:
Date: 01/02/20██ at 1402 hours
Description: CCTV footage and several first-hand accounts report a black, human-like figure emerging from SCP-XXXX. It is believed but not confirmed to be SCP-XXXX-B. Infrared and heat monitoring systems did not detect an increase in heat. The figure is recorded emerging from SCP-XXXX’s front and only entrance without opening the doors. The figure then descended the steps and crossed toward Site-XXXX-Δ, which had already been placed on high alert. Gunfire was to be held until the figure was within five hundred (500) meters of Site-XXXX-Δ, but the figure stopped advancing approximately six hundred (600) meters away. The figure stood motionless from 14:04:37 to 14:14:06, after which it fell backwards and lay in the snow from 14:14:10 to 14:36:54. At 14:36:54, the entire CCTV surveillance system collectively lost record of the time between 14:36:54 and 14:37:20 when another flash of light was reported to have emitted from SCP-XXXX. After the flash, the dark figure appeared to have vanished and a thorough investigation of the surrounding area revealed nothing of interest.
The light registered at six hundred (600) lumens and all five (5) members of Task Force-XXXX-Σ on duty outside who witnessed the flash were immediately blinded. These agents were anesthetized using Class-C anesthetics and turned in to Foundation authority. All monitoring is now conducted via CCTV and direct eye contact with SCP-XXXX is strongly advised against.]
[Experiment Report XXXX-E:
Subject: D-8194, a 36-year-old male Caucasian convicted of conspiracy and retaliation.
Overseers: Dr. ████ and Agent MacKulla.
Items in Possession: D-8194 is allowed one (1) operational flashlight and one (1) operational two-way radio broadcasting device. D-8194 is also attached to a buckle harness which is connected to a pulley system of seven-hundred and fifty (750) meters of rope. One (1) wireless video system is mounted on the subject’s chest, which records color video and broadcasts a live, infrared and night-vision video feed to the overseers.
1235: D-8194 enters SCP-XXXX and is instructed to continue through the hallway to his left and up the flight of stairs.
1238: The subject enters the second-story circular laboratory and is instructed to head the third level.
1245: The subject enters the planetarium and video feed continues for two (2) minutes, showing D-8194 standing alone at the center of the room before his flashlight goes dark and the video transmission is lost.
The following is the conversation between the overseers and D-8194 over the two-way radio supplemented by in-room security CCTV surveillance between 1246 and 1259 hours:
Dr. ████: [speaking to monitoring team] Get ready to write, boys.
Agent MacKulla: Let’s get this [expletive] over with, I got some R&R coming up, and I need time to shave my [redacted].
Dr. ████: Shut up, MacKulla. [pause] Here it comes.
D-8914: [static] Have you grown jaded with me already?
Dr. ████: [reading from a prepared list] What are you?
D-8914: Many names! Many names! You’ve heard of a rot man, a white man, and the last time I was a golden woman, but now what am I? [static] The lord will raise his sword and bare judgement on all flesh! And those slain by the lord will be many! The lord will execute justice by fire!
Dr. ████: Are you affiliated with the Christian religion?
D-8914: [laughs] If the lord hath fire and the fiend hath fire, who am I? Do you peer into heaven, doctor, or do you peer into hell? What of the in between?
Dr. ████: Do you exist tangibly or are you contained within people’s minds?
D-8914: Too many questions, doctor. Give me the one who calls himself Jason MacKulla. He wants me and I him. [static] For behold! The lord will come in fire! Breathe fire, Behemoth! Breathe fire, Demogorgon! Breathe fire, Cimeries! [static]
[extended break in activity, duration: three (3) minutes]
Dr. ████: [sighs] Video’s back up.
Agent MacKulla: Get him out. I don’t want that thing saying my name one more [expletive]ing time.
Dr. ████: [nods] Subject, prepare for extraction.
D-8914: Hello?
Dr. ████: Yes, hello. Prepare for extraction.
[extended pause]
D-8914: I have seen the light. [heavy breathing]
Dr. ████: [motions to the monitoring team to halt extraction procedures] What did you see?
D-8914: A man in white robes. He was golden-haired and wore wings and a halo unrivaled! The air trembled—
Dr. ████: [interrupting] Did he offer you anything?
D-8914: Yes. [long pause] Freedom. Freedom to fall from heaven as he did, to tread across the earth knowing full enlightenment. [cries out] Oh, I have met the lord! And he waits for me below!
Agent MacKulla: Sounds like a [expletive]ing cult leader.
Dr. ████: Prepare for extraction. [motions to the monitoring team to resume extraction procedures]
D-8914: No! [screaming] [sounds of struggle]
Agent MacKulla: [laughs] This one’s a fighter.
[unintelligible chatter in the monitoring room]
[continued sounds of struggle]
Dr. ████: We’ve got him down the stairs, should be about two minutes now.
[video transmission cuts]
Dr. ████: [expletive]
Agent MacKulla: [expletive]
Dr. ████: I need eyes on XXXX, now! [indistinct chatter] [commotion in the monitoring room] I don’t give a [expletive], just wear your [expletive]ing sunglasses! I need eyes, now!

[Incident Report XXXX-4:
Date: 01/03/20██ at 1300 hours.
Description: During the extraction procedures following Experiment XXXX-E, the test subject, D-8914, ended video transmission through unknown means. At 13:01:32, subject D-8914 severed his buckle harness through unknown means and most likely entered SCP-XXXX’s lower-level auditorium without authorization. At 13:02:55, a bright light registering at seven hundred (700) lumens was emitted from SCP-XXXX, blinding the four (4) Task Force-XXXX-Σ members who had been ordered to observe SCP-XXXX by Dr. ████ once video transmission was cut. Subject D-8914’s body appeared in the snow outside SCP-XXXX at 13:03:17 after CCTV surveillance cut out throughout the duration of the light’s emittance. The corpse was burned similarly to that of D-1134’s body (see Incident Report XXXX-1). D-8914’s body has been scheduled for incineration and a new buckle harness issued.
Addendum: Due to SCP-XXXX’s unpredictable nature, continued personnel injury, and cutbacks in Foundation funds supporting SCP-XXXX, 05 ████ has prohibited any further experimentation for an indeterminate period.

[Incident Report XXXX-Epsilon:
Date: 01/11/20██ at 0216 hours.
Description: CCTV surveillance captured the Task Force-XXXX-Σ leader, Agent Jason MacKulla, break from his scheduled monitoring shift at 0216 hours and disable the alert system on the north-facing entrance of Site-XXXX-Δ. No others were on monitoring duty at the time. He then exited the site without alerting any personnel and approached SCP-XXXX unauthorized. Agent MacKulla then entered SCP-XXXX. There is a break in activity between 02:23:58 and 02:46:39, then at 02:46:39, a light registering at fifteen hundred (1500) lumens was emitted from SCP-XXXX, permanently damaging many CCTV camera units.
This flash alerted Task Force-XXXX-Σ, and Agent MacKulla’s remains were found in the snow outside of SCP-XXXX. His body is scheduled for incineration.
]
Addendum:
Site-XXXX-Δ has been down-graded from an experimentational facility to an observational facility until further notice. Dr. ██ ███, due to his breach of conduct and breach of information on 06/22/20██, was treated with Class-B anesthetics and transferred to SCP-███ duty. He believes that SCP-XXXX was neutralized, and therefore is not permitted to view or read this document.
Dr. ████ remains operating director of Site-XXXX-Δ. Agent ████ is now leader of Task Force-XXXX-Σ.
