If you want a place to start at The Foundation, my personal favorite is The Human Beowulf Complex, aka SCP-763.
I'm a huge fan of the SCP Foundation, enough that I GMed a campaign based in the setting and made audio files like the one in the trailer for it. In order to save on time, I unfortunately had to skip over the roleplaying tradition that's still alive and well today in the SCP community.

My favorite is SCP-1230 "A Hero Is Born" basically a book that if you read the first sentence, next time you go to sleep you'll have a dream of an adventure tailored to you, that in some cases lasted hundreds of years (to you)
Sounds fun.
Inception? Interestellar? Hans Zimov?

I love SCP Foundation. It's dark, interesting, original, genuinely scary, and is almost like modern Lovecraft. It's an actual mythos. A pantheon created by many writers, each putting a spin on it.

@@silverstone9836 Then you haven't checked the User Curated Lists.
Fun fact, SCP-682’s picture is actually the rotting corpse of a Beluga whale.
Which makes me really want to see SCP-682-J, the relatively easy-to-destroy beluga whale.
That’s honestly a fantastic idea, since the site is looking to purge copyright images from the site it’s a lovely way of paying tribute to the og image

Scarface Have you... actually visited the site?
Corleone He sounds more like a mouthbreathing neckbeard who thinks his fanfic writing rivals Lovecraft. Internet drama is so quaint.
Corleone....what an ironic name in relation to what I'm going to say....I follow the same principle as written in The Godfather: making threat is a show of weakness. I don't make promises of threat, I act.The one who is loudest with their list of threats without acting upon it with effective outcome is the weakest.
Reason why in real life if I'm really angry I could hit people but I used to warn those who are close to me that in anger if I pick up an weapon object....run away....because I don't mean to wave it around as a threat. I will use it.
Edit: an in context to the website drama being a whiny arrogant person against the wish of a higher power is pathetic. If you are really a good writer then publish your work and make money like Stephen King....why bother getting high getting your "dick sucked" by online fans....
Another reason why in real life I write research paper instead of fiction. My word is canon...my word is the law of nature itself....I don't need fans to flatter my ego, they either with me or they are all wrong. At least until someone else could do better. =)

PaladinPizza ... interesting
A lot of users stepped forward to claim being the author. We haven't been able to confirm the legitimacy of any of them yet.
all we know now is that he was Anon. 70544932
Well obviously the scp foundation is too well-known to be npt stumbled on
No one really know but that make some author use this event as event in some scp
12:27- hate to be rude, but that is false. Keter ≠ dangerous. Basically, a keter is difficult to contain. I believe they said something along the lines of this on the website- “a cat that randomly swaps places with another cat on earth would be a keter class, due to how hard it is to contain.” As well as “a button that could destroy the universe would be safe class, as long as it’s secured where no one can touch it.”
They also talk about what is known as the box test-
“If you put the SCP in a box and it stays, it’s safe. If you put it in a box and you aren’t sure what will happen, it’s euclid. If you put it in the box and it escapes, it’s keter. If it _is_ the box, it’s thaumiel.”
These aren’t exact quotes, just off the top of my head.
So yeah.
Safe means it can be contained easily
Euclid means it’s not fully understood or it’s unpredictable- humanoid SCPs are often put into this class, and this class is also the most numerous.
Keter means it’s difficult or sometimes even impossible to contain
Thaumiel is a rarer class, but these are used to help contain other SCPs
Neutralized is self explanatory, either it was accidentally or purposely destroyed or deactivated.
Just had to get that off my chest. Hope it helps.
Edit: I did forget a few, my bad.
Apollyon is completely uncontainable, such as SCP-001: When Day Breaks. You can’t contain the sun.
Explained is what it sounds like- the SCP is no longer considered anomalous since its properties are understood better.
Yeah, that was one of the points that was really off about this video. They distinctly say on the website what you just described for the 4 classifications.
Let me get this straight so thaumiel scps are used to contain the Euclid and keter scps? Thats amazing imagine a battle between scps
@@imbrifabian1529 Thaumiel can contain anything. For example, SCP-3246 is a 93-year-old woman that can knit magical sweaters that "fit the needs of whoever she knits it for". This includes various psychotic SCPs and thereby contains them.... somehow.
Thats fucking awesome
This video was made before the classifications were changed.
Oh, the irony of Fishmonger being treated like one of his own SCP creations...
Mong is a fitting nickname for them
i love that removing him only helped
"Its hard to shake that feeling you've stumbled upon something you shouldn't of" I know "hosted by wikidot" gives me the heebee-jeebees
David Brailsford yeah, that really takes my nogging for a jogging.
*SHOULD'NT HAVE!!!1!1!!1!1!1!1!1!!111
All Wikidots put a wangus in my pangus
David Brailsford yeah no this website is lame and stupid, as is this video discussing it
The perfect bait
This was an awesome video! But just a little correction: Object classes do not define the danger of an anomaly, it actually measures the *dificulty to contain.* It's easier to explain with the "Box":
If you leave your anomaly in a box, and nothing happens, it's probably Safe.
If you leave your anomaly in a box, and you don't know what'll happen, it's probably Euclid.
If you leave your anomaly in a box, and it breaks out of it, it's probably Keter.
If your anomaly *is* the box, it's probably Thaumiel.
Never heard of Thaumiel.
Sir David Yeah, OP dropped the ball on explaining what exactly is meant for the name.
Blur Hikari
If your anomaly is no longer inside the box, you may or may not be dead.
Aren't there more classifications besides the ones that were listed just now? I could have sworn I've heard of others
there is one... we dont speak of it
jk
the hidden class is Apollyon, if we return to the box example Apollyon essentially means that the box is breaking and whats inside the box can destroy existence itself, in many cases there is no way to keep things marked as Apollyon permanently contained so the foundation can only hope and pray that something doesn't happen to speed up the universes inevitable doom.
For such a great source of sleepless nights, i never realized how wacky and stupid some non-joke scps are.
Yeah, I think there's a non-joke SCP about a giraffe afterlife or something where they endlessly get tortured by balls of light or something. SCP writers can get wacky.

Fun fact: The Statue was published on 4Chan about a month before the Dr. Who episode "Blink" was aired, so it's unlikely that either writer knew of the other's concept.
Also, I know that I said "19" instead of "17" during The Fishmonger's threat. So sue me.
Wait, nonononononono--
It's been a few years since I checked out the site, but it's good to hear about a deeper history. Great work man and keep it up!
I've seen the "Apollyon" class too.
Correct, Thaumiel is just a bigger version of Keter, and Apollyon I believe is only used for SCP-2317. I decided not to include them for the sake of brevity and to limit confusion, since they're so uncommon.
Good idea. The Safe/Euclid/Keter trio make up the majority of the classifications of the SCPs anyway.

@Megan Ezell That’s SCP-101-FR. It’s in French, but if you google it you can find someone in the SCP forums who translated it.
Sugar Kane Thanks
The roleplay aspect of the first three administrators is amazing.
First the mad doctor that has made his life goal to understanding the unknown, with his knowledge, cunning, and unhinged sanity, he rose to the top with frightening efficiency.
Next, a military vet that was the only survivor of his unit after encountering an SCP and his skills were recruited to become the head of SCP Response teams. When in the shadows he was the leader the entire time.
And then Dog head, no literally. Yes, so immersive.

I first stumbled upon the SCP fandom in 4th grade. I thought it was miles scarier than anything i've ever heard about before. After that, I became so paranoid I couldn't sleep in my own room anymore. I even recall seeing a face on my ceiling one night. It really messed me up but I loved it. Now tough it's been years since I really left the community so I don't think of it much nowadays, just reminisce what used to be.
SCP-093 was the first story I heard and it got me hooked, The Red Sea Object is still my all time favorite SCP.
Is that the one with the rings that let you walk through mirrors into some post-apocalyptic alternate Earth?
@@reharl4953 Yeah but it's a disk that when held lets the holder walk through a mirror.
This and the “graveyard of the immortals“ are my favourites. ( “Graveyard of the immortals“ isn't the real name for it but I forgot the original name and SCP number of it and this name fits the content of the story quite well.)
i reread it every few months and each time it makes me feel.... something. i don't know how to describe it. it takes me somewhere, that's for sure
Same, my favorites are red sea object, red reality (lot of red) and house of the worm, theyre great
Holy damn, I didn't know there was SCP drama. I love the site, and it's really cool to have a lesson in its history.
It's the internet. There's ALWAYS drama.
More Drama then a Lama
Clint Hoyt
CAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
There's also the speculation of hollywood dipping in to rip off some of it's ideas. Warehouse 13 being the greatest example.
I mean it's all under Creative Commons license so I believe the authors are only thrilled to hear that.
In theory, at least.
Ok, forget what I said, my NEW favorite SCP is SCP-1171, "HUMANS GO HOME". It's a house in which one of the windows serves as a way to communicate with some sort of extra-dimensional, extra-terrestrial life form. This being is actually super friendly and approacheable, except for the fact that he's weirdly racist towards humans.
"*OH, THEY'RE THE WORST. I MEAN, DON'T GET ME WRONG, I'M NOT RACIST OR ANYTHING. SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE HUMAN. BUT IF THEY'RE AS GOOD AS US, WHY DO THEY NEED SKIN? AM I RIGHT?*"
Oh I love that one. I read the interviews of him and they are so funny

I'm not typically a fan of horror, but I love the SCP Foundation. What I like about it is that it gets rid of all of the dumb decision-making horror story characters typically have and comes up with creatures/anomalies/etc that are scary even if you *know* what you're doing. Basically, steelmanned horror movie monsters.
Also, I tend to like the stranger SCP's such as the Hateful Star and the Minus Level, which are really novel thought experiments in addition to being creepy.
Ender Skies Minus world is only slightly creepy, but I like it because it focuses on being weird (and promoting further thought and discussion of "What would it be like?" more). Not every SCP is creepy, for example I don't find 2000 scary at all, despite it talking about humanity having to be loaded from backup several times. Ditto for the Architect (184) and "Inside", but those are also among my favorites.
because fans of scp are easy to troll
sole21000 Aye, the Foundation takes to horror with the intelligence of a doctorate. Friday the 13th would've gone very differently if it was an SCP Tale.
Has anyone here read the first like three 3000 SCP's? Now those are some damn good SCP's
@@atomicspartan131 Can't say I've read em all, but a good number of them.
I just realized why the logo of the Foundation has three points: The procedure for the "first" SCP required a minimum of three personnel to maintain eye contact. Three arrows pointed inwards.
Also, even the drama on the damn site is wrapped in that same clinical, white-coat sterile-syringe style of speech and writing.

SCP-316
A highly advanced AI within a robotic frame whose sole purpose is accurately toss cans of beer at high speeds at WWF superstar 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin.
It is currently in the care of Vincent K. McMahon and the WWE Company
My favorite SCP is 2966
It’s essentially a self refilling toilet paper dispenser. Of course, there’s a twist.
It creates new TP by absorbing heat energy from the surrounding area, so a nuclear reactor is attached to it to provide the necessary energy so it doesn’t turn the area into a tundra wasteland. The problem is that if the housing gets too much TP, it’ll go super critical and blow up (exact numbers are redacted, but there’s references to the 50 megaton Czar Bomba).
This means it’s stored is a super secluded area, manned by a skeleton crew. 3 times a day at precise times, a D class goes into its containment and removes 10 sheets to maintain adequate equilibrium.
Supposedly it’s superb TP too.
Ahh yes the infiniTP
my god we needed that during the toilet paper insanity
Sounds like something you would get from a wish by a malicious semantic geenie
The SCP Foundation would make an excellent premise for a horror anthology TV series.
Anthony LiPira I think it would work like this. Every episode would look into a certain SCP, of course. The episodes would work much like a regular post, with a name, class, procedures, etc. The episodes would go mainly into what happened before containment, with more insight to the stories.
The show "Warehouse13" apears to be partly inspired by some SCP articles
Bryan Castellano Any examples?
JYoungblood I cant think of any off the top of my head, I saw it a few years ago. But there where a few times where they talked about an item that seemed very SCP
www.scp-wiki.net/scp-1257
I love the SCP site. I always go there anytime I need cursed artifacts for a D&D campaign.
ShattForte you should make a SCP dungeons and dragons custom game.
That sounds awesome.
Theres an SCP book that takes you to the world you write in it. That could be your premispremise. Like, a group of scientists get dragged into a D&D style world, and have to use SCPs that were included in the story to survive or something.
I am so glad I stumbled upon your comment. I’ve never even thought of that for my own campaign. I’ll be sure to hit up the foundation when planning a TPK

Dude, there could be a really cool monster of the week horror show based around this.
There's a television show called Warehouse 13 with a similar premise to the SCP Foundation, just not quite as dark or brutal.
Fredrik Knudsen Something dark would probably be refreshing, no?
+Fredrik Knudsen I honestly couldn't watch Warehouse 13 because the two main characters act like immature children instead of the government agents they are.
Sounds interesting.
Nukestarmaster I feel like having people just doing their jobs is seriously underrated these days. I'm getting a bit tired of the unnecessary quips every other second you see on TV shows these days.

Dude, I seriously can’t believe SCP has only been around since 2008 or so. It feels like I definitely, *definitely* read some of those in high school or college but that makes no sense because I was already out of college for a couple years by 2008. I’m having one of those weird, personal, Mandela effect moments...
CreepyPasta would've been alot better if they applied these terms.
Thank You! They would, SCPs are still going strong to this day.
Stick to whatever you like Ender.
Ender Skies Creepypasta gets so fucking edgy and pretentious.
Ruben
That actually gets me wondering...
What is a Creepypasta supposed to be nowadays and how do you differentiate between a Creepypasta and just another Horror Story on the internet.
When I was younger, I use to think/believe that the rules for a Creepypasta, while loose were: They have to involve a modern day twist and they need to be at least slightly believable.
This is why characters/creatures like the Rake, Slenderman, or even Eyeless were such popular characters for the fanbase at the time. They were designed with a certain down to earth 'believability' at the time. And while many (Including me) could call them and their stories underwhelming, it was the great mystery and subtlety that made those stories work in a way.
Nowadays, most Creepypasta characters are designed to be Mary Sue/Self-Insert characters with a sort of Vanity Project Fix. Take for example: Helen The Bloody Painter, Judge Angel, Clockwork, Hobo Heart, or Toby.
Rather then try to make a story that builds up atmosphere or makes a good story, the stories seem to be made to appeal to the author's fantasies and hope that the character becomes popular. Looking at you Sonic.EXE.
While I understand that a demographic like this will always exist because of how everyone has access to do what they want with a story and the characters of the Creepypasta Fanon because they're public domain, I can't shake the fact that they've lost their identity because of how long it's been. And while I do appreciate a set of stories where anything is possible, Creepypastas I feel like have lost their charm BECAUSE no one can really tell what separates a Creepypasta from any other scary story.
Now don't get me wrong, there are still good scary stories being written but I'm not sure if they need to be Creepypastas anymore, like when you listen to a scary story nowadays it can just be a scary story. Some of these Creepypastas take place in Space or in a Fantasy Universe, I feel like that might be breaking the rules but perhaps there were no rules in Creepypastas to begin with and then you see why they lost their identity as opposed to the SCP which attempted to do a strict resurgence of those rules.
I suppose a spirital successor to the Creepypastas in my opinion are those scary Reddit posts about real things that may have happened to them because there's always a sense of grounded-ness to their stories. Don't know if people could categorize it at this point and it's not lie you need to.
Ironically enough I've gone down the rabbit hole of watching your videos
Ansixi Honestly, me though.

There’s also 914’s experiment log. There are quite a few funny ones on there. One that I remember is a guy put in a Samsung Galaxy S7 and it came out as a hand grenade.
@@Brawler_1337 ohi remember the living lego but i forgot the details. The samsung galaxy s7 guy tho i havent heard before. it does sounds funny. lol
This is why Control is so great and creative
As someone who joined during LolFoundation(the chaotic period) I gotta say it was a fun time, but the Foundation is definitely better without it.

Found the homophobe.
Yea like wtf do these holloween critters have to do with the LGBT community
@@Gustav_Kuriga just beca#- it's gay doesn't menu Its good
Just as there's no reason to have LGBT acknowledgement on a science fiction site, there's equally no reason to lack LGBT acknowledgement. I see no problem either way.
Thats one of the most fascinating and internet things i`ve ever seen
Scp is one of those things that when you stumble con it you just want more of it, just like an infinite hunger.
never have i found an internet series covering all of my interests while simultaneously fulfilling my love for an investigation documentary-esque aesthetic. I've been up all night sipping on my shivering cold water while taking an intriguing insight on subjects such as furries-- things which I've never expressed a particular appeal to. In summary of an already short commentary: I absolutely love the videos! Keep it up!
The image you used while reading off SCP-173 I cant shake the feeling its a miniature.
It's actually not though, the picture was a WIP of a sculpture by a man named Izumi Kato
Oh really? So was the sculpture that he was making just an art project or was is specially made to be SCP-173?
It was an art project. As far as i know it's in a museum exhibition today and the artist wasn't aware it was going to be used for the SCP creepypasta.
I've read that the guy knows about the SCP thing today and the popularity it has gotten, and he's okay with the foundation using pictures of the statue as long as it stays non-profit and non-commercial.
Ah cool. Thanks for the info
No prob, i'm just giving out what i remember at the top of my head though so i might have gotten a detail or two wrong.
Well, caveat. Object classification refers to difficulty of containment, not level of danger.
Dirk Ufkes I see by your profile pic that you must know a lot about that kind of stuff

Oh boy, it's 2020 and the SCP foundation is still kicking strong and is growing more and more
Sucks now
@@sometimeslol5578 Nah, there's still super good works
@@sometimeslol5578 hard disagree. There are some shitty parts like the reddit people who post like the same three series one skips all the time but by and large a lot of the new stuff is pretty good. I don't really see where you're coming from on this one. The content on the site is far more varied and complex then ever.
@@LethargicScientist There is too much variation and too little moderation basically vast quantity very low quality imo. Articles being protected from criticism and every article has at least one transgender charector, if reality matched scp articles by representation than half the population would be LGBTQ. I get alot of scp writers are gay but if every storyline has a lgbtq person it ends up feeling like fan fiction. They go back and fuck up classic articles like the teenage succubus without having decent replacement, also every mystery being explained in a lackluster way and several hundred timelines most of which do not stick to what SCP was about. It Sucks. (My examples: transgender alien is bad, tumblr posting meteorite is bad, teenage succubus is edgy trash, montauk has a thousand explanations now, site 15 and SCP one, any tales or abandoned series seriously take ur pick there's like ten that go nowhere)
@@sometimeslol5578 are you just saying that they write too many gay people? A lot of the authors are lgbtq and they want to write something that mirrors their own experience. I don't see why that should be a problem. There's still a lot of creative stuff coming out of the site and I don't see why the amount of lgbtq characters should change that. I think it's important to have a range of diverse authors and creators. Maybe you have to sift through a *bit* more garbage than before but honestly both new and established creators are doing some really interesting writing right now, and I'd argue that it's more interesting than ever. And saying that there's "too much variation" is a very wierd complaint IMO. I would agree that they need to tighten the reigns a bit in regard to crappy tales but I don't think that's a reasonable argument for "the entire site is garbage now." I'd also like to say that I think the fact that so many authors have explained Montauk is a neat little phenomenon that is really egged on by the text itself.
Edit: also I like tumblr meteorite :(
I love how the person behind Dr.Gears's persona is sick of The Fishmonger's dramatics, while at the same time he is the one roleplaying as an intellectual trying to flex his large vocabulary in an attempt to sound smart.
>/x/ is one of the more constructive boards I guess tulpas and succubus summoning are constructive
Oberto K tulpas own sorry
GIANT ALIEN PUSSY
/×/ used to be intresting but well
Watch mister metokurs x files series
/x/ was pretty chill in 2010. It's gone to absolute shit since then
Bored Erlands comparatively? Yeah.
When I was much younger I was an admin of a similar forum. There were a couple of users who had decent work, but pretty toxic when dealing with others. After an incident we talked about banning one of them, but the majority of admins (not me) wanted to give him a warning. A warning was given but he really didn't give a shit. More incidents happened and it was clear he and his cohorts would never be banned. I eventually left the site. I was asked to return because I was pretty good with graphics and web design but it was no longer worth my effort. People I knew kept on leaving over two years and the site was removed. I can no longer find a trace of it anywhere. It is as if it did not existed. Having gone through this, SCP did the smart thing.
Immorpher what was the forum about? Paranormal creatures like this?
Immorpher wait, are the you that guy from scp cb forum?
ロボット鳥山 you couldnt do better
What was it's name?
the people want to know man, please go into more detail about what the site was about
'You'll find that I poorly respond to threats.' Damn. That sentence is a juggernaut.
I'm starting to believe that the question "where did x start" can always be answered with "4chan" (when relating to the internet duh)
What about "Where did 4chan start?"
From a japanese forum ripoff basically
@@d9zirable The older answer to where everything on the internet starts: The Something Awful forums. 4chan started as an offshoot of SA's anime sub-board
The exchange with fishmonger has the ability to be sophisticated yet incredible petty at the same time
Sadly you didn't mention the quite well-written fancfic on the whole admin conflict. It was written in-universe and uses a quite a few SCP. It's not horror, but is interesting as a sort of supernatural game of thrones on a smaller scale.
Edit:
Actually, there are A LOT of tales based on the universe that actually involve site staff and SCPs. If you are interested in one particular SCP I suggest you look up tales with it. Half of fanfics are probably gonna be good.
Sephi D Link? I'm interested.
www.scp-wiki.net/incident-239-b-clef-kondraki
Don't forget to read the post-incident at the bottom. That was the best.
Sephi D Oh yes. That one. I didn't quite take it as admin drama, but now I see it.
oh lmao so the 239 incident was just a self insert admin drama fic lmaooooo
Lol i loved that story and didn't know that...that's really funny XD
*I wish The SCP Foundation had its own live action series.*
The Steadfast Duelist your somewhat right
I think there's a channel that does something similar! They're short videos though. But I definitely recommend it
The channel is called ForlornFoundry
We could pitch an SCP movie to blumhouse or something
Crypttv make great scraty videos as well
SCP 2295 and SCP 4999 are my favorites, because even tough they are not lovecraftian or scary, they manage to be beneficial, misterious and tragic at the same time
4999 is wholesome
As someone who was around on /x/ during the creation of SCP, I can tell you that the site, at least in the beginning, was a highly insular group prone to questionable actions. There was an "in group" of creators whose works often skirted or broke the rules that supposedly governed how stories should be written. Whats worse is I saw, more than once, a would-be author from outside that in-group post their work and have it taken down only for a strikingly similar article written by part of that in-group go up shortly after to wide acclaim. Of course, if anyone complained they were banned and their posts removed.
I was on the site near the beginning, and it just felt like a giant circlejerk of people who takes themselves way too seriously
Audiodump it's gone through a lot of changes
And now it's one of the friendliest and best communities.
It's become overrun by crazies. It's so sad.
id love if you did a side scp reading series. I can't find a good channel that reads them without being unnecessarily dramatic or making loud noises and jump scares
I fully support this.
Try scpreading
or east-side scp readings.
kayleigh Elise has a great video
The above suggestions are great. Night Mind also has a couple of videos where he reads a few SCPs. He's fantastic in general if you like weird, disturbing, or horror based content and analysis.
SCP feels like one of those things that just grows out of the internet, like the idea version of a fungus.
I love the SCP foundation, I've read at least 100 of them and yet there's still so much more to go through.
And it still amazes me at it's extremely humble start
Hunter Allen I main Ike in Smash Bros.
That's it, I'm directly telling my friends about this channel. I am completely impressed with all of the content you've created so far. Everything is so well thought out and researched barring the tiny minor errors. Keep it up. You're like the "Gaming Historian" of internet culture.
Thank you so much, having work shared is the highest praise. It also is incredibly helpful! I hope I can keep making enjoyable stuff for you guys.
I was such a fan of the SCP foundation in college, before there were over 1000 entries (over 2k by now, I think), so nice to see the story behind the site now
Ender Skies Nope, its on the meta essays, but kinda hard to find (like everything else there)
4k now
Theres even a game now
Well, you can't use the image of 173 commercially
Someone's licensed sculpture
-probably ,idk
@@ary2766 you are correct. Mostly theyre careful to get licensed images but sinces it was so iconic and the original they spoke to the creator of the sculpture and they said they could keep using it but not commercially.
Oh yeah thats right
Wait... you looked. Now you can't look away. I think you know what can happen if you look away.
Been binge watching the down the rabbit hole series and I love it. All these videos are very interesting. I’ll check this out definitely 👍🏻
Funny I was shown the Foundation some five years ago, have been writing my own entries for at least three, never submitted anything, and now videos covering it are popping up in my feed. Maybe I should pool all of them together again and finally polish them up for submission...
CheffBryan We always welcome new talent. Make sure to ask feedback in the forum though.
any tips for writing as someone that does not have a lot of knowledge within the universe of SCP? Like, things with Sarkicism and the Broken God
Should I dive more entirely and read all of the materials or should I just read the guides and wirte then wait for feedback?
H Brüggs You mean like, making allusions to other in-universe scips and shit? That's basically just cross-referencing. DO NOT cross-reference in your first SCP article. Just read up the advice on-site make the thing stand out on its own.
thanks for the tip, Godzilla
Luckily you didn't because that doctor dude sounded like a total ass
"If you make a steaming pile of crap, and someone edited it into solid gold, then THEY should get the credit, not you." Someone needs to tell that to George Lucas.

What I like about necky snappy scp is that you have to risk your life to clean shit off the floor
Thank you so much for this video. It opened up the amazing world of SCP to me. I'm truly hooked (down the rabbit hole,some might say).Can't get enough of the SCP content on RUclips either. And it's all because of your video, so thanks 😊 (ps.been meaning to type this for months).
The Fishmonger is so petty lmao
cringy reading about him, I know that kind of person. So full of themselves and so self important.
As a former fan of fishmonger i kinda get why the site hated him.
Wonderlust was well written for a internet tale but it kinda contradicts the entire shadowy organization feel of the Scp Foundation while also abusing his popularity For Mass inserts for his tale looking at it Lolfoundation is kinda the fallout of wonderlust.
I rad that as pretty, I was very confused.
This was a nice story. Made me happy a group could come against such issues then come out better! Great video.
Chase Mora Actualy, fishmonger was a giant douche, but no more of a douche than the staff.
The biggest problem was the staff, not 1 rude writer
How are the staffs douches, if I may ask?
Edgar Valencia
From what I've seen the staff did everything they could
Man, sooo late to the party but am binge watching and really appreciate the effort you put into these vids...great breakdown on this!
this was actually super insightful! I didn't really know a lot of the background of the site (besides stuff concerning adminship originally) despite talking to a few admins and such in the past. cool!

Reports of the SCP foundation's death have been greatly exaggerated.
Wow, what a ride! Great video, really enjoyed the music, format, and your narration :)
Been a waitin, you deliver all my favorites!
Nicely done! Someone posted this in the SCP subreddit, and I'm happy they did! Just subbed, can't wait to see more from you!
Thanks!
Full disclosure: I was the one who posted it there. Hope that doesn't kill the magic! =P
There are scp's that deserve their own movies.
They should make a scp movie, with constant feedback from the O-5 council, of course
I found this channel yesterday. You are a great sleuth. I love that your videos vary in length. Big fan of the channel. Keep it up.
Wish I would have discovered you sooner. Your videos are incredibly well put together, and your narrating is fantastic. I can only imagine how much time and energy it takes to research and edit something like this. Thanks so much, and I’m excited for more content.
My favorite thing about SCP is how realistic looking and mysterious some of the pictures may be while disturbing at the same time
The SCP Foundation is a really fascinating website not to mention absolutely terrifying with some of the objects the Foundation have got contained or monitor closely, like SCP-2399 "A Malfunctioning Destroyer" which is some sort of alien structure not unlike that of the Death Star that's stuck on Jupiter and SCP-610 "The Flesh That Hates", this last one is a really disturbing disease that mutates people and animals into hideous creatures and covers the area in some sort of a fleshy growth, I'd recommend that people have a look at the article for that one.
SCP-610 the Flood
When i was recommended this video,one time,it was during a video playing in landscape-mode, with it being down on the recommended videos,but, weirdly enough,the thumbnail of this video was with it's only distinguishable element normal (which is the SCP logo), and the rest of the thumbnail completely transparent, with even the video i was watching playing through it.
I don't know what exactly happened,why it happened,or why won't it happened again.
Thank you so much for making this video. It changed my life.
