True story. My grandfather was coming home from work late one night in the 50s and crossed a bridge over some railroad tracks. He spotted a green light swaying, so looked down and observed what appeared like a railroad worker walking down the tracks holding up an old-fashioned green-tinted lantern. It was unusual enough that he stopped to watch, and as the man got closer, he just faded away -- but the green light continued bobbing along. My grandfather took to his heels and ran non-stop all the rest of the way home. I've often stopped on that same bridge to look, but have never caught a glimpse.
@@ImaPizzaK Because he didn't. I never met the man; he died before I was born. It was told to me by my grandmother and father, who were there when he got home panting, wide-eyed, pale, and terrified.
Dr. Bob's voice is oddly soothing yet ominous at the same time, goes well with SCP stuff. Keep up the great word doctor, can't wait for more entries on the SCP foundation's classified archives...
A movie no, possibly if it’s about a single site and something like a breach happens. A tv show tho yes, tv show has more opportunity for what it can be based about, could be a single Scp per episode or even the life of a site and everything that goes on
If they didn't try ripping off X-Files and the MCU Shield/hydra. It would be tough these days especially with the stupid woke politics bs they are pushing.
Theory: the lights are lights of Angler fish from either the past, future, or even another universe and when it rains those angler fish are given a semi physical form and are closer to our time/world which lets them hunt and stuff.
Scp-2640-1 are basically big angler fish that can float around and are invisible. My theory is that when exposed to water, like rain, that’s when they become invisible angler fish and will feast on anyone they come across. When it isn’t raining, they are just floating balls of orbs
That’s partially what I think to, I don’t think they are originally from our world and/or time which is why they aren’t visible until water is exposed to them. I also think they come from a rift area, a timewarping or universe-warping rift that causes the lights to be seen in the circle area they appear in, and they stop existing once they leave the area of the rift.
My theory is that they are angler fish from another universe, that's why we cant see their true form and instead see them as balls of light, and i think the same goes for the angler fishes, they cant see us properly so they use things like smell for detection, and the brighter a orb the more of our universe it can see, I think the bright orbs can see us in some form so that's why they approach us, when the orb passes through a human I think it creates a temporary space rift and allows both entities to be in that weird water space untill the orb passes through, I think the anglerfishes can actually kill us on the water space, just that they cant reach in time, a really bright orb might actually be able to kill in the temporary space, rain might increase their ability to see our universe for some reason as it seems to be able to interact with the anglerfish's real body, and the same probably happens to us, that's why the agent was able to see the anglerfish's real form.
I still think Dr. Bob is an SCP himself. He keeps on surviving seemingly unavoidable SCP’s, never shows his face, and always survives the aforementioned SCP’s.
SCP-2640 Object Class: Euclid Special Containment Procedures: The rail line that intersects SCP-2640 is to be decommissioned for all commercial or industrial traffic. A 3 m tall electrified fence has been installed in a 1.5 km2 perimeter surrounding SCP-2640. A total of 4 No fewer that 8 Xyank/Anastasakos Constant Temporal Sinks (XACTS), hereafter referred to as an XACTS Array, are to be placed surrounding the 5500 m2 area. Due to the remote location, the XACTS Array is to be powered by a subterranean miniaturized pressurized water reactor. The array must be failover redundant and maintained by Foundation personnel, stationed on site. The Disinformation Bureau is to maintain the current dissemination campaign. Witnesses to SCP-2640-1 are to be administered Class-B amnestics. Description: SCP-2640 is an unstable temporal anomaly centered on a 5000 m2 area near Gurdon, Arkansas. The area is a heavily forested pine thicket, bisected by a Union Pacific Railroad line that runs from northeast to southwest. The railway features one iron trestle bridge, which is the epicenter of SCP-2640. No other vehicular or pedestrian roads enter the area affected by SCP-2640. Within the area of SCP-2640, SCP-2640-1 may manifest. SCP-2640-1 is an intangible floating orb of iridescent light. It may manifest alone or in groups; however, no more than 12 have been seen at once. It has been known to manifest at any time; however, it is much more noticeable at night. The light produced by SCP-2640-1 varies in intensity, and has been measured between 75-450 lux. The wavelength of the light measures between 380-490 nm, and appears bluish-white to the human eye. SCP-2640-1 normally float and travel slowly, but have shown the capability to move at speeds approaching 60 kph. When an instance of SCP-2640-1 measures under 150 lux, it does not show any response to stimuli or environment. In instances measuring over 150 lux, it will interact with human presence, following subjects from a distance of no less than 20 meters, and will not move closer; instead, moving away if approached. Conversely, instances approaching 450 lux are very active, and will often interact with subjects. In rare instances, SCP-2640-1 has been shown to float through a subject. In these instances, subjects report a feeling described as "being suspended in liquid" or "floating in a swimming pool", although they show no outward changes. The feeling begins as soon as SCP-2640-1 makes physical contact with a subject, and passes as soon SCP-2640-1 is no longer making contact. Instances of SCP-2640-1 are incapable of leaving the area affected by SCP-2640. When they reach the boundary, instances of SCP-2640-1 will decrease in luminosity until they become invisible. Addenda: SCP-2640-1 has been colloquially known to local residents as the "Gurdon Light" or the "Spook Light" and, prior to containment, was a tourist attraction-particularly around the holiday of Halloween. Local legends and mythology attribute SCP-2640-1 to the lantern of a railroad worker who was killed when he fell into the path of a train. The legend states that the man's head was separated from his body and was never found, and that the light that people see comes from his lantern as he searches for it. The Disinformation Bureau's campaign explains that SCP-2640-1 is caused by the discharge of piezoelectricity from the stresses of underground quartz crystals and the New Madrid fault line. Further, the current containment protocols have been enacted for the safety of the general public, as the piezoelectric discharges have proven to be dangerous. SCP personnel on-station for containment of SCP-2640 are explained as scientists employed by the Federal Bureau of Land Management to analyze the phenomenon. ◎ Documentation Access ◎ Experiment Log Recording- 03/17/1992 Experiment: Testing Xyank and Hume levels within SCP-2640 Purpose: Determine the nature of the anomaly Personnel: Dr. Connors, D-1423, D-2435, D-3578, Tech staff Equipment: Comm Radios, Standard low-light body cam, Xyank-Tachyon Constant Spectrometer, Kant Counter, Digital Luxmeter, standard D-class control collars, handheld flashlights Connors: Gentlemen, can I get a radio check?

Keep moving and keep your eyes on those instruments. D-3578: So… what are we out here looking for, Doc? Connors: You might see something a little unusual. D-1423: Unusual? How unusual? Connors: Nothing to be worried about actually… in fact, you might even find it quite interesting. D-2435: (In a mocking tone) You might even find it quite interesting. Connors: D-2435, shut it. You all should be in the exclusion zone right now. Can you give me some reading off your instruments? D-1423: Uhhh… looks like… .point-three-two.. C H? Connors: That's 0.32 centiHumes.

Connor: D-2435, you're testing my patience. D-2435: WOAH, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!? (An instance of SCP-2640-1 materializes 6 meters away from the group) D-2435: ohfuckohfuckohfuck… D-1423: JESUS CHRIST. D-3578: WHAT in the HELL… Connors: CALM DOWN, all of you. I told you you'd see something unusual. Now, the light won't hurt you at all. I just want to get some readings please. D-1423: T-t-that's a fucking ghost. D-2435: ….ohfuckfuckohfuck… D-3578: ….Doc? You seeing this shit? Connors: Yes, I see it. I need you all to calm down. They don't hurt, they're just… there. D-1423: What does it want? Connors: That what we're trying to figure out. If you could please point your instruments towards it and give me some readings please? D-1423: Okay, I have 0.34 CentiHumes. D-3578: I have delta 17.78 XT. Connors: That can't be right. D-3578: 17.78… 17.79…. 17.80. Connors: That's very high. D-3578: Is that bad? Connors: ….no. D-2435? Lux reading? Silence. Connors: D-2435? D-2435: Man, FUCK this Ghostbuster shit. (D-2435 begins briskly walking back the way he came. The light follows him quickly.) D-2435: OH FUCK. D-3578: Oh shit man… (D-2435 seems to freeze in place as the orb passes directly through him, then falls to the ground, flailing) D-2435: AH WHAT TH' HELL, I CAN'T SWIM! D-3578: OH SHIT. D-1423: Are you ok? (D-2435 thrashes on the ground, as if attempting to swim) D-3578: What do you mean, you can't swim? D-2435: AHHH SHIT I CAN'T FUCKING SWIM I DON'T WANNA… wait… what… (D-2435 sits up and quickly pats his chest, his head, his forearms, examining himself.) D-2435: …th'fuck? Connors: (suppressing laughter) Did you get that Lux reading? D-2435: Th'fuck just happened to me? (The glowing orb bounces around the group as they are trying to collect themselves.) Connors: We haven't figured it out yet. But we THINK it wants to play. D-2435: ….play? D-1423: You fuckin' kidding? Connors: No. They're harmless. D-3578: Really? D-2435: …feel like I just got thrown in the river. Connors: Yes, that's a side effect of contact. We're trying to figure that out. D-2435: B-but… I'm not wet… D-1423: Your pants are. D-2435: Man, fuck you. Connors: Ahem… lux reading please? D-2435: 3… 6… 7. Connors: 367 lux. Thank you. You may all reactivate your flashlights and come back to basecamp now. D-2435: You goddamn right imma come back to camp. End Recording Footnote: The findings of difference between △2.35 XT and △17.8 XT is significant- This may be one of the strongest localized temporal anomalies on the planet. It has proven to be unique in the fact that, while this particular anomaly in the local Rzewski field is quite large, the application of the XACTS array has effectively kept it from geographically spreading further. I hypothesize that SCP-2640-1 are actually lifeforms from another time period that we can see visually, due to this anomaly, yet cannot interact with without rupturing the Rzewski field, and causing irrepairable damage to the time/space continuum. Incident Log- 3/01/1997: An EF-4 tornado1 made landfall near the 2640 Exclusion zone, causing a piece of debris to damage the northernmost XACTS. The resultant breach facilitated the installation of a failover system of the XACTS Array.
The Gurdon Light is a mystery light located near railroad tracks in a wooded area of Gurdon, Arkansas. It is the subject of local folklore and has been featured in local media and on Unsolved Mysteries and Mysteries at the Museum. The tracks are no longer in use, and the rails at least partially removed/covered, but it remains one of the most popular Halloween attractions in the area.[1][2][3][4] The light has been ascribed various colors, ranging from blue, green or white, to orange, and has been described[by whom?] as bobbing around. Its exact location is said to vary and witnesses[who?] have described it appearing at various times of day or night.
There is a very similar scenario on Netflix's "Love, Death, and Robots" called "Fish Night". Two salesmen get stuck in the desert after their car breaks down. The older man informs the younger man that the desert was once a sea floor teeming with life. At night, they wake up to find the ghosts of prehistoric marine life floating around the car. The young man undresses to swim through the air, while the old man urges him to return. As the young man becomes a luminescent being, a primordial Shark appears. Despite the old man's calls of danger, the young man stays ignorant until the ghost shark devours him.
The best part of this video is when Dr. Bob is that instead if saying "ghosts looking for there missing heads" he said "ghosts looking for their missing craniums"
this is an actual urban legend in Arkansas, you can visit this railroad today. From everything I've heard it's notorious for causing accidents in the area.
Duuude I never thought anybody would feature anything from my backwater state, i'm so proud! I grew up with this urban legend, it has a few variations, as most good myths do. : )
I’m from Charleston and there’s a tale of the Ravenel Lights which has a backstory almost identical to the story of the Ghost Lights thank god this wasn’t actually what we were dealing with when my friends and me went to go check it out 😂😂😂
Likely, this SCP would be after the oceans have swallowed back the earth. Since these creatures actively hunt us, and are located so close to a population center, i believe it's an anglerfish that evolved its body to reflect all light while making its light brighter.
I'm from Arkansas and it's kind of a right of passage to visit the Gurdon lights. I didn't see any lights....just got hella drunk. I also like the little detail about Arkansas being underwater at one point. Good stuff
Been loving the videos bob, glad I found you before you really blew up but I’m thankful for the fact that the quality of each video hasn’t gone down since the first one :’)
Every once and a while I have to stop and think about just how insanely stressful being one of the leaders of the foundation must be… how many dangerous SCPs are they trying to contain at any given time??
If you're tellin' it right, he was either a drunken Irishman who passed out on the tracks while doing his job, or a good, hardworkin' youngfella who warns an oncoming train of a wreck ahead, and gets it when the ENGINEER is a drunken Irishman who doesn't notice his signals and creams him. Sometimes with the headless body being a smashed and mangled wreck where the train rolled right over him.
1:44 "How could someone not notice an entire train?" Ohh trust me my friend. People can sometimes be focus on one thing that even a train won't be noticed all the time.
Reminds me of stories of where I'm from, where people would see lights playing under canoes or floating and dancing in the air at sea from time to time. Believed to be the spirits of those that didn't die well
I've actually been to the gurdon lights, guess I got the good amnestics that only make you forget the anomaly, not the whole night XD Nice to see this one get attention
Wait we sorta have something like this in Arkansas, with the whole same backstory. Except it's a dirt road now and not a track but if you go there and shut of your car's light you'll see a light appear in the trees and on the ground. One time when I went when I was younger I saw a figure start to walk towards us from the distance and I told my mom and she immediately told me and my step dad to get into the car and when we drove towards it there was no one. And if you drive towards the light you'll see it move forward before disappearing. And there's on one way to get on the road unless someone comes up from behind you so there wasn't any really chance of it being another vehicle. We call it the light and it's a local ghost story and even now people still go to the road at night and try to see the light.
I do believe in the paranormal as I've had my own experiences so I don't want to hear anyone saying it's fake to me. You can have your own opinion but I have my beliefs and you have yours. Though I am open to hearing stories.
Also I forgot to add that when he said this story was based in Arkansas I kinda laughed cause I didn't realize it would be based in Arkansas but we do have a story similar to the rail road worker getting his head cut off and an eerie light that appears in the trees and on the roads and such but thankfully whenever we go to visit the sight there isn't any armed guards or anything like that lol.
imagine seeing the ghost orbs, think they're kinda weird but mostly harmless and then you see...THOSE things floating at you.

The wavelength of the light measures between 380-490 nm, and appears bluish-white to the human eye. SCP-2640-1 normally float and travel slowly, but have shown the capability to move at speeds approaching 60 kph.
When an instance of SCP-2640-1 measures under 150 lux, it does not show any response to stimuli or environment. In instances measuring over 150 lux, it will interact with human presence, following subjects from a distance of no less than 20 meters, and will not move closer; instead, moving away if approached. Conversely, instances approaching 450 lux are very active, and will often interact with subjects.
In rare instances, SCP-2640-1 has been shown to float through a subject. In these instances, subjects report a feeling described as "being suspended in liquid" or "floating in a swimming pool", although they show no outward changes. The feeling begins as soon as SCP-2640-1 makes physical contact with a subject, and passes as soon SCP-2640-1 is no longer making contact.
Instances of SCP-2640-1 are incapable of leaving the area affected by SCP-2640. When they reach the boundary, instances of SCP-2640-1 will decrease in luminosity until they become invisible.
Addenda: SCP-2640-1 has been colloquially known to local residents as the "Gurdon Light" or the "Spook Light" and, prior to containment, was a tourist attraction-particularly around the holiday of Halloween. Local legends and mythology attribute SCP-2640-1 to the lantern of a railroad worker who was killed when he fell into the path of a train. The legend states that the man's head was separated from his body and was never found, and that the light that people see comes from his lantern as he searches for it.
The Disinformation Bureau's campaign explains that SCP-2640-1 is caused by the discharge of piezoelectricity from the stresses of underground quartz crystals and the New Madrid fault line. Further, the current containment protocols have been enacted for the safety of the general public, as the piezoelectric discharges have proven to be dangerous. SCP personnel on-station for containment of SCP-2640 are explained as scientists employed by the Federal Bureau of Land Management to analyze the phenomenon.

Experiment Log Recording- 03/17/1992
Experiment: Testing Xyank and Hume levels within SCP-2640
Purpose: Determine the nature of the anomaly
Personnel: Dr. Connors, D-1423, D-2435, D-3578, Tech staff
Equipment: Comm Radios, Standard low-light body cam, Xyank-Tachyon Constant Spectrometer, Kant Counter, Digital Luxmeter, standard D-class control collars, handheld flashlights
Connors: Gentlemen, can I get a radio check?
D-1423: Uh, check.
D-2435: Yo DJ, check check 1, 2.
D-3578: Hey doc, we hear you. So what the hell are these gadgets we're toting?
Connors: They're scientific instruments. They're measuring some of the things in the environment around you.
D-2435: Ya hear that, ya'll? I'm doin' SCIENCE.
D-1423: (laughter)
D-3578: (laughter) Yeah, you're a regular fuckin' Einstein.
Connors: Gentlemen. If you could please walk along the railroad tracks.
D-2435: Roger wilco that good buddy, 10-4.
D-1423: (laughter)
Connors: Can it. Keep moving and keep your eyes on those instruments.
D-3578: So… what are we out here looking for, Doc?
Connors: You might see something a little unusual.
D-1423: Unusual? How unusual?
Connors: Nothing to be worried about actually… in fact, you might even find it quite interesting.
D-2435: (In a mocking tone) You might even find it quite interesting.
Connors: D-2435, shut it. You all should be in the exclusion zone right now. Can you give me some reading off your instruments?
D-1423: Uhhh… looks like… .point-three-two.. C H?
Connors: That's 0.32 centiHumes.
D-1423: Oh… ok.
D-3578: I have… uh… a triangle and… two-point-three-five XT
Connors: Delta 2.35 X-Tachyons, that's pretty significant.
D-3578: Cool.
Connors: D-2435?
D-2435: Thought you told me to shut it.
Connors: (Sighing) Everyone, kill those flashlights, and D-2435, can I have that lux reading?
D-2435: Yeah, it's… fuckin'… uhhh…
Connors: D-2435, the reading?
D-2435: uhhh… zero… dot… t-two… three?
Connors: Are you asking me?
D-2435: Fuck you.
Connors: I'm gonna have you reassigned. Is it 0.23 lux?
D-2435: Fucking… I dunno.
Connor: D-2435, you're testing my patience.
D-2435: WOAH, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!?
(An instance of SCP-2640-1 materializes 6 meters away from the group)
D-2435: ohfuckohfuckohfuck…
D-1423: JESUS CHRIST.
D-3578: WHAT in the HELL…
Connors: CALM DOWN, all of you. I told you you'd see something unusual. Now, the light won't hurt you at all. I just want to get some readings please.
D-1423: T-t-that's a fucking ghost.
D-2435: ….ohfuckfuckohfuck…
D-3578: ….Doc? You seeing this shit?
Connors: Yes, I see it. I need you all to calm down. They don't hurt, they're just… there.
D-1423: What does it want?
Connors: That what we're trying to figure out. If you could please point your instruments towards it and give me some readings please?
D-1423: Okay, I have 0.34 CentiHumes.
D-3578: I have delta 17.78 XT.
Connors: That can't be right.
D-3578: 17.78… 17.79…. 17.80.
Connors: That's very high.
D-3578: Is that bad?
Connors: ….no. D-2435? Lux reading?
Silence.
Connors: D-2435?
D-2435: Man, FUCK this Ghostbuster shit.
(D-2435 begins briskly walking back the way he came. The light follows him quickly.)
D-2435: OH FUCK.
D-3578: Oh shit man…
(D-2435 seems to freeze in place as the orb passes directly through him, then falls to the ground, flailing)
D-2435: AH WHAT TH' HELL, I CAN'T SWIM!
D-3578: OH SHIT.
D-1423: Are you ok?
(D-2435 thrashes on the ground, as if attempting to swim)
D-3578: What do you mean, you can't swim?
D-2435: AHHH SHIT I CAN'T FUCKING SWIM I DON'T WANNA… wait… what…
(D-2435 sits up and quickly pats his chest, his head, his forearms, examining himself.)
D-2435: …th'fuck?
Connors: (suppressing laughter) Did you get that Lux reading?
D-2435: Th'fuck just happened to me?
(The glowing orb bounces around the group as they are trying to collect themselves.)
Connors: We haven't figured it out yet. But we THINK it wants to play.
D-2435: ….play?
D-1423: You fuckin' kidding?
Connors: No. They're harmless.
D-3578: Really?
D-2435: …feel like I just got thrown in the river.
Connors: Yes, that's a side effect of contact. We're trying to figure that out.
D-2435: B-but… I'm not wet…
D-1423: Your pants are.
D-2435: Man, fuck you.
Connors: Ahem… lux reading please?
D-2435: 3… 6… 7.
Connors: 367 lux. Thank you. You may all reactivate your flashlights and come back to basecamp now.
D-2435: You goddamn right imma come back to camp.
End Recording
Footnote: The findings of difference between △2.35 XT and △17.8 XT is significant- This may be one of the strongest localized temporal anomalies on the planet. It has proven to be unique in the fact that, while this particular anomaly in the local Rzewski field is quite large, the application of the XACTS array has effectively kept it from geographically spreading further.
I hypothesize that SCP-2640-1 are actually lifeforms from another time period that we can see visually, due to this anomaly, yet cannot interact with without rupturing the Rzewski field, and causing irrepairable damage to the time/space continuum.
Incident Log- 3/01/1997: An EF-4 tornado1 made landfall near the 2640 Exclusion zone, causing a piece of debris to damage the northernmost XACTS. The resultant breach facilitated the installation of a failover system of the XACTS Array.
U just the take the entire comment
Jesus Christ that's long
I smell cringe.
Bruh how long did it take to type this?
The Gurdon Light is a mystery light located near railroad tracks in a wooded area of Gurdon, Arkansas. It is the subject of local folklore and has been featured in local media and on Unsolved Mysteries and Mysteries at the Museum. The tracks are no longer in use, and the rails at least partially removed/covered, but it remains one of the most popular Halloween attractions in the area.[1][2][3][4] The light has been ascribed various colors, ranging from blue, green or white, to orange, and has been described[by whom?] as bobbing around. Its exact location is said to vary and witnesses[who?] have described it appearing at various times of day or night.
A new episode from Dr Bob always brings true A class Enlightenment to our hearths! Besides from mandatory administered drugs
There is a very similar scenario on Netflix's "Love, Death, and Robots" called "Fish Night". Two salesmen get stuck in the desert after their car breaks down. The older man informs the younger man that the desert was once a sea floor teeming with life. At night, they wake up to find the ghosts of prehistoric marine life floating around the car. The young man undresses to swim through the air, while the old man urges him to return. As the young man becomes a luminescent being, a primordial Shark appears. Despite the old man's calls of danger, the young man stays ignorant until the ghost shark devours him.
Props to the guy who had to replace the exact by himself tho, he handled that situation better than most of his class would have.
reminds me of that episode from Love, Death and Robots.
Also 6:38 is the best D-class squad ever.
The best part of this video is when Dr. Bob is that instead if saying "ghosts looking for there missing heads" he said "ghosts looking for their missing craniums"
Tow Mater's biggest fear, the Ghost Light!
Man, I love these videos so much. I’m always waiting for the next one to come out. Such a great combo of story telling and animation!
this is an actual urban legend in Arkansas, you can visit this railroad today. From everything I've heard it's notorious for causing accidents in the area.
When SCP-2640s light turns of at 11:37 it sounds like a lightsaber
The thing that i also like on this videos is the Animation. I see that the Animation is getting better and better Over the time. Its awesome
Thank you for promoting this less popular scp Dr Bob, often they are far more interesting than the popular one.
Love the extinguishing lightsaber sound when all the orbs disappeared.
Duuude I never thought anybody would feature anything from my backwater state, i'm so proud! I grew up with this urban legend, it has a few variations, as most good myths do. : )
The animation and details have gotten so damn good. Thanks, Doc Bob!
I’m from Charleston and there’s a tale of the Ravenel Lights which has a backstory almost identical to the story of the Ghost Lights thank god this wasn’t actually what we were dealing with when my friends and me went to go check it out 😂😂😂
Remember that _Cars_ short with Mater and the Ghostlight?
Glad someone remembers.
Wow, Dr Bob has gotten a lot better at animation over the past year
Yes I've been moderately eating his videos and yes and
Don't know how to feel about living 30 minutes away from this this place
I like how the group of friends look like a group from a 90s film except the glasses one who looks like hes 20 years older then the rest
Likely, this SCP would be after the oceans have swallowed back the earth. Since these creatures actively hunt us, and are located so close to a population center, i believe it's an anglerfish that evolved its body to reflect all light while making its light brighter.
I'm from Arkansas and it's kind of a right of passage to visit the Gurdon lights. I didn't see any lights....just got hella drunk. I also like the little detail about Arkansas being underwater at one point. Good stuff
You didn’t get drunk those were amnesiacs.
Fun fact: This is a real legend, only there's more than one story of how the worker lost his head and it's in a different location
Been loving the videos bob, glad I found you before you really blew up but I’m thankful for the fact that the quality of each video hasn’t gone down since the first one :’)
The animation is amazing, great job!
The 2nd person perspective is great as always
Every once and a while I have to stop and think about just how insanely stressful being one of the leaders of the foundation must be… how many dangerous SCPs are they trying to contain at any given time??
Theses are so high quality now
This content is amazing I always come here for a new episode every Friday.
i love just checking every time i can every friday to see if you've uploaded, love the content keep it up
I've been to gurdon arkansas several times. It was truly Neat
Look at that. Just when i get on there's a new Dr. Bob video. Awesome!
If you're tellin' it right, he was either a drunken Irishman who passed out on the tracks while doing his job, or a good, hardworkin' youngfella who warns an oncoming train of a wreck ahead, and gets it when the ENGINEER is a drunken Irishman who doesn't notice his signals and creams him. Sometimes with the headless body being a smashed and mangled wreck where the train rolled right over him.
This is probably one of my favorite scp's
This video gave me so much anxiety lmao quit playing with my fragile emotions Dr. Bob
1:44 "How could someone not notice an entire train?" Ohh trust me my friend. People can sometimes be focus on one thing that even a train won't be noticed all the time.
Reminds me of stories of where I'm from, where people would see lights playing under canoes or floating and dancing in the air at sea from time to time.
Believed to be the spirits of those that didn't die well
I wonder if this story is based on the story of the Paulding (sp?) Lights in Michigan. I’ve seen them, but the tracks are gone. It’s kinda creepy.
Reminds me of the Paulding lights. Very cool!
Why are you literally the only channel Ive seen with a specific button to donate? What makes you so special?
I like how you make it like you are part of it
I've actually been to the gurdon lights, guess I got the good amnestics that only make you forget the anomaly, not the whole night XD Nice to see this one get attention
Big fan watch most the epic story's
One of the most mysterious SCPs
Yooooooo the Gurden lights are an SCP! Finally one in Arkansas
Perfect, just what i needed, thank you
It’s the ghost lights!!!
Your scp videos always keep me entertained and it would he super cool if you did a video about SCP 5000 or SCP 035
Kinda reminds me of SCP-745 The Headlights. With multiple moving lights it’s like the SCP ngl.
As always there’s more to scps than meets the eye.
Thank you so much Dr Bob😊
Imagine hearing a story about a human body walking around without a head and thinking the most ridiculous part is that he didn't hear the train
nice story this one !
That SCP operative is a mood.
3:00 doctor Seuss slaps in this parts
Oh wait, I think I remember this from somewhere. From another video, perhaps... Of course not as an SCP, but actually as an urban legend.
Always love the SCPs that have some real stuff
As a man who lives in Arkansas he see a lot of lights floating around
Thank you for the upload ser
The Foundation is good, finally.
They are not evil, it's that they need to be cold when containing unknown things that can destroy the word.
@@Raccon_Detective. i know, I didn't mean evil, thol
love your vids
Wait we sorta have something like this in Arkansas, with the whole same backstory. Except it's a dirt road now and not a track but if you go there and shut of your car's light you'll see a light appear in the trees and on the ground. One time when I went when I was younger I saw a figure start to walk towards us from the distance and I told my mom and she immediately told me and my step dad to get into the car and when we drove towards it there was no one. And if you drive towards the light you'll see it move forward before disappearing. And there's on one way to get on the road unless someone comes up from behind you so there wasn't any really chance of it being another vehicle. We call it the light and it's a local ghost story and even now people still go to the road at night and try to see the light.
I do believe in the paranormal as I've had my own experiences so I don't want to hear anyone saying it's fake to me. You can have your own opinion but I have my beliefs and you have yours. Though I am open to hearing stories.
Also I forgot to add that when he said this story was based in Arkansas I kinda laughed cause I didn't realize it would be based in Arkansas but we do have a story similar to the rail road worker getting his head cut off and an eerie light that appears in the trees and on the roads and such but thankfully whenever we go to visit the sight there isn't any armed guards or anything like that lol.
I love this. It reminds me of ‘fish night’ from love death robots
Biggest anomaly in this story is that I have friends.
There is a theme with these types of SCP.
If it's a moving ball of light.
It's mean there are predators behind them light.
You're getting better and better at these animations!
Reminds me of a ghost story from my old summer camp
I’m finally here Dr. bob!!!
It's interesting that no matter how horrible the foundation is, without them humanity would be long extinct
The animation is so good
You'd make a hell of a dungeon master, Dr Bob. 😊👍
I think he'd be a great GM actually, lmao. He's got the traits for it.
I liked the stories more than "you and your friend" at the beginning
Hey bob, what music did you use for the story bit at the beginning?
It has a nice melody to it.
The quality has really gone up Bob! Keep up the good work!
Ah yes a other scp that'll make my fear of darkness get worse 🙂
Now fear of the light
@@inexistentspecofdust9951 And the winner of brand new phobias goes to...
Lumophobia!!!!!!!
Honestly, if those scp's were in my neighbourhood, the council would tell us to get rid of them, saying there a public irritant.
This is the first opening story doesn't have an bad ending I have ever heard
