The Secret at the Bottom of SCP-087 - EXPLAINED (SCP Animation) 

Why not? Not like he has done something. This is a joke

Great idea! I’ll need to hire a construction crew to build an area and a bowser as a boss at the bottom though. Ehh, I’ll just use my Alexandria Eternal book to do that stuff!

That's what i thought. Why not try sending a very long queue of d-classes down the stairs?

These are hardly bad in comparison to so many, so the redaction, were it to be one of these 3 is kind of odd.

The only reason why it’s not horrifying is because it’s not true

Watch me rick roll down the stairs

U are everywhere REEEEE

that would be true if the theory of parallel universes existed which means if a anomaly that is murderous and has capabilities to teleport into universes. we would be dead so hope parrallel universe dont exist

You will bed trapped forever being rick rolled with rick astley staring at you on your second hour

In fact, just send 096 down there, 087's face will see it and 096 will go berserk trying to kill a disembodied shadow monster forever.

@@entropyapathy i've always wanted to know how that would play out

@@entropyapathy Nah he will welcome his long lost brother. Even if he's lost everything but his head

Ngl it would make sense. It could explain why 096 wants to dissappear. 087 can but for some reason 096 can't

id like to see that play out the title could be 096 vs 087 i would suspect 096 would win

I choose to believe this is the truth

:troll:

And the face was just Rick Astley all along.

Yes true

xD

SCPs are the monsters the SCP foundation have

Absolutely Correct

SCP 1680, is an endless supply of D class personnel.

Probably another source of infinite youth at the bottom, which the white face guy is guarding

Montauk was organized by the ethics committee I think

Yeah never rule out the ethics committee. They'll do crimes against humanity but also make sure nobody writes it down without redacting it afterwards. Less ethics committee and more optics committee.

Maybe it's infohazardous.

110 montauk is why I think I think it's number 3. It's information that in the wrong or well intentioned hands would cause undo harm. After all it's a little girl that wanted to be free right? The behavior is more consistent too. Chasing away men but inviting women down? On top of that it's the most brutal of the lot, and equally the most dangerous. My bet is Number 3 is the closest to the actual truth since the other two aren't necessarily worth entirely redacting. Not unless stealing faces also included stealing memories, and in the case where you just see his body than that's case closed nothing changes.

To perserve the mysterious aspect of it, I'm sure if Abel did go down there, eventually he'd lose contact and then reappear inside his coffin with no memory of what happened.

Also, I'm not sure if the stairs are laid out where you can just drop through the middle. I could be wrong, but my recollection is that the platforms between the flights are semicircles, so the flights are kind of layered beneath one another without space in the middle to just drop down.

The problem with that is when Able dies he comes back to life in the tomb perfectly fine, they shoved a grenade in his open chest cavity and he still came back to life

He is too busy helping contain SCP-354. The Red Pool. There is even scuttlebutt about having Able on autodial there.

What if Cane went in cause when he would be attacked the damage would potentially hurt the s people not him

Dude how are you everywhere?

What

Wow. I’m early.

E

Go away you never even watched the whole video and your likes are bots because you just want to get people upset buy being omnipresent.

How did it even get there to begin with the stairwell was normal for years it was until recently it became anomalies

That entity must have calves and thighs like iron. Stuck in an infinite staircase, you know his cardio is top notch.

Then you can leave, it’s a great workout

It kept reminding me of the endless staircase in Mario 64. And I was genuinely dismayed that not once did any researcher nor D-class ever think to ask if they should go back and make sure it's still X floors back up to the top.

@@ThePhantomStinker The first 2 did come back up though, so they likely compared time going up to time going down as well as speed to be sure.

Have you seen your grandpa recently?

Obviously your grandpa is 087 then

thats is frightening

Aggressive grandpa

Hey stop exposing them! Thats unrealistic and we'd never spend time on that

Sssssshhhh

No. No person is making the youtube channel. It's SCP-001. It's a secret that wants to be told so it manifests as a youtube series. 001 is the entire foundation data base. We'll sort of. The entire foundation data base makes up 001. When we write a new SCP, it becomes that SCP an alternate universe, altering reality to paradoxically fit all SCPs into the same universe. Sometimes the SCPs even contractdict the existence of other SCPs, which is what proved it reality altering capabilities.

scp 087 wasnt in the scp cb-

Did you mean SCP-087-B?

@@alfaaditya6357 I don't think 087-1 was in 087-B either. It had its own game just called "SCP-087" I think I remember Markiplier playing it once in one of his videos Edit: it was in one of his 3 Scary Games videos, I think, the more kinda recent ones

*we just solved multiple anomalys at once*

😂 lol

How about explosives? What would happen if you threw a nuke in there?

They obviously just didn’t remember to backwards long jump. If they had done that they would have met gay bowser and said so long. Then they would have come back to safety in the castle to eat peach’s cake.

I think it has something to do with fear. 087-1 seemed to appear once someone became too afraid and turned back. There are a few people on Earth who are not capable of fear, perhaps by sending someone with that trait in, 087-1 wouldn't appear. It wouldn't solve the potentially infinite nature of 087, but it might allow for higher quality expeditions. However if it's based on turning around at all, which is another possibility, then this idea falls flat on its face. Either way, the test would reveal which of the two was the case.

So we need 70 power stars to find the end to SCP-087

That's a cornerstone concept, it will never age.

You get it. Wanted to share my comment with you. I offer what I think is a more viable proposal then the three they offered. ---------- Okay so read my idea, just thought of it it was pretty dope, at the bottom of the next paragraph but I'm starting with my rating. A and b were boring. C was a little bit better but I still wasn't a fan. They all felt a little on the nose. Like I don't think the stairwell needs to have a bottom. I don't think the face needs to have a body. I don't think it should be interested in murdering men at all. I feel like the crys of a baby are scarier than a little girls. I liked the mystery of this scp giving it to much of a form makes it way less scary. I would say on a fourth expedition they would send four more d-class. Another male who made it down to where the female d-class died first time around. He would descend a few more flights before he found the image of a flayed female disembowled from sternum to groin mouth permanently agape in pain and terror, burnt... almost engraved into the wall but her eyes fleshy eyes would remain rolling in agony as banshee like wailing and screaming only audible from that specific flight of stairs could be heard. Under fear of the punishment of death the doctor would convince the d-class to continue making his way down he would descend another twenty floors before the face began to appear again. He would run away from it down many more flights before it appeared in front of him it would then pass through him and he would mysteriously find himself at the entrance. The second d-class a female would be sent down she wouldn't make it to the burnt image but she would hear the woman's screams twenty flights above it. They would be inaudible to the camera and she would have to tell the scientist what was being said "RUN IT HATES YOU IT WANTS TO PUNISH YOU IT WANTS YOU TO SUFFER TURN BACK IT DESPISES THE WOMB IT DESPISES THE HOME. FLEE BEFORE ITS TOO LATE." Again the d-class would be threatened with execution by the scp operative and compelled to continue. She would make it down ten more flights before the face appeared to her she would begin running away but the last thing heard would be her screams as the camera cut to black after she made it ten flights back up. Again the scp scinetist would send in another female d-class. This time with the most spectacularly disastourous result of all as soon as she entered, the fate that befell the first two women would happen to her and her image would be ingrained into the backside of the entry door into the stairwell. This time the screaming and wailing would be audible from outside the door with the loud sounds of beating, scraping and clawing on the door could be heard. As a last ditch effort to make it to the bottom of the stairs they would send in a modified d-class male. This male would have undergone a specialized lobotomy and extreme psychological manipulation to not only make him entirely unemotional and fearless but completely obedient. He would be hooked up to remote lifesign monitors and have a feeder pack that intravenously took care of nutritional needs for up to two weeks. The d-class would enter the stairwell and verify that the third female d-class was the person ingrained onto the entry door using the biometric data to analyze the fleshy eyes. Once confirmed the d-class would make his way down to the second female d-class again for confirmation. Then the third. Again their scream only audible on the flight of stairs they died on no specific warnings just unintelligible death crys. The d-class would then began to make his way down the stairs a week would pass and his feet at this point would begin to fail him the flesh on the bottom of his feet would begin sloughing off and he would crash onto his chest but due to the manipulation he would continue his journey unimpeded by dragging himself down the stairs eventually his feeder pack would run out of nutritional supplement and he would somehow manage to carry on for another week before his body completely failed. He would die after climbing down tens of thousands of flights. The scp scientists would be able to monitor the live feed of his camera staring at a dark and empty stairwell for another week and right before it died the face would appear but this time be every so slightly more defined and have distinct characteristics that would be able to identify it as a late stage fetus. The end Think that would be way cooler than the three the video gave us.

The mystery stays with you. The answer scuttles away

@@alw2839 Classics are that for a reason ^^

@@zacharytrammell3382 It is a good version, sadly we can only give one Thumbs Up here :D But again, do we need an explanation for this strange staircase at all? I just feel like this SCP is so horrifying because of how "simple" it is. It is something we all could encounter.

I was thinking that as well, or send remote rover with treads that can grip on and climb back up the stairs.

Like a drone or sumn

Yeah I was wondering why they don't use drones more, it would be extremely beneficial for certain situations. Like with this one, there are 2 possibilities. 1, the drone reaches the end, or at least goes down as far as it can, or 2, the creature destroys the drone. Either way, you board it up and nothing happens. Threat contained. The GOC would likely just send a ton of men down there, only to have them die.

@@good8619 signal

@@TheLambda As I said, let it go as far as it can. Besides it is the SCP foundation, you'd think that they have top tier drones.

@March Reighly it always was

Wow that’s so wholesome! :) I was just reading your comment and I finished the first sentence and wanted to tell you your idea made me happy! :) Okay I’m gonna submit this reply and then read your second sentence now, thanks again!

Ok I have a plan to reach the bottom. We take a picture of 096's face, DO NOT LOOK AT IT, and tape it on the wall where 087-1 appears. Then well... for good measure, just tell reddit theres the president down there and they all take up arms and go in. Or just pick up 682 and YEET down the steps. Last idea, over 5,000 D class conga line all armed with restored PPSHs and TOW missile launchers.

I find that the cartoony aspect makes it easier to comprehend that way, instead of being forced to attempt to comprehend it via text.

aren’t you just describing an imagination

@@blackironwalterkus3851 Not exactly! Yes, the basis is similar, but it's more complicated than that. After I posted this comment I've come to learn that in addition to the trauma I'm most likely a HSP (highly sensitive person, there are some good videos on it), so how my mind reacts to things is a lot more intense than the average person. Usually people have a certain divide between themselves and things that they learn about, and they can imagine things in an objective way. For people like me, the imagined scenario is far more intense, as if we're actually experiencing it, and it can cause severe discomfort and even panic attacks. For me personally, a simplified animated representation of SCPs makes it easier for me to create a divide between fiction and reality. I do understand the confusion, though, HSP isn't a widely known trait, and I myself have only recently found out that I am one. I suggest watching a few videos on the subject, it's really helped me to rationalize what is actually going on in my head! And even if you're not one yourself, it's useful to know if you ever come across such a person.

@@yammantheaardvarkofhonor1242 Maybe none of them work

Idk… A stairwell down to a dark hell where the devil wants to use you to unbirth his child is pretty terrifying.

Thats what I was thinking. 3 is still pretty tame and a bit campy with the floor that door was on. If its as heavily expunged as it is, I would assume it contains an XK class

I was expecting something like another dimension since darkness is an entirely different thing. Maybe it's a place that collects fear and manifests it in all forms (darkness, strange nasty slime, and endlessness are great foreshadowing targeted at humans) where only the most mild things are experienced first. The face inflicts fear but it might be only a sliver of true terror of what lies deeper... like a true eldritch god. How could this be found out? Send in a blind D-Class. What if it's another non-euclidean space where something similar to SCP-184 resides? Except this one wasn't found in time to be stopped. An endless ever expanding space that got distorted over time and distance. Eventually everything got distorted. Physics was distorted. Humans that wandered down and starved themselves trying to find an end slowly became abstract from the concept of when something truly dies and becomes inanimate. Corpses with a few living cells become replicated. Life is created and distorted innumerable times... Or... just as there are animals that use light for photosynthesis, there are... things that use this very real darkness as their nutrients. And just as there exists bio-luminescence, there's bio-darkness. Used to hide their presence yet also lure prey in. Still not that realistic but something to start with.

Yeah, for The Foundation to not only expunge the entire 4th exploration log, but board the entire thing up and just walk away from it instead of containing it themselves? Gotta be someone a hell of a lot worse than just a stab-happy monster or a body snatcher.

Probably dirt.

I am not so sure. It is on the upper floor of a building, but does not exit anywhere else in the building, so it may be an extra dimensional space. And even if it is dirt, they can dig up and see what is above the staircase.

More stairs bro. Non-Euclidean geometry. Maybe you would end up dealing with two ghost faces or freeing the monster into an orphanage for sad llamas in a different dimension.

@@zacharytrammell3382 (non-euclidean)

@@Imperial_Cosmonaut ty

You're forgetting that the noise being a consistent distance away is not a fact, just a tendency. In experiment 3 as soon as the woman notices the face the sound gets closer as she descends. Additionally, we have at least a single _confirmed_ case of the stairs abducting someone, as the D class from exploration 3 never makes it out again after falling. Sure, the method in this one seems completely different but we don't even know how the other d class woman was taken *exactly* so it may have only been become she ran that she survived for so long whereas the other woman was taken immediately. Also, just because the staircase causes extreme fear doesn't necessarily mean that's an anomalous property per se, it could just be scary is all. Keep in mind that I'm not saying that you have to like #3 at all, it's a preference thing, but still, those criticisms in particular feel odd

@@dooplon5083 the stairway might continue descending past the door on floor 666, too. I'd suggest just sending a drone down there (maybe even with a cable connection to avoid having reception issues), but given that this is the SCP foundation, it would probably fail in some unforeseen way.

The first two d-classes survived the stairs, the face didnt catch them

@@MatLameira I think he means the three proposed fourth expedition in the video, not the three actual expedition.

I am thinking more along the lines that the truth is hidden in all 3 stories. Or else why would there be 3. So far the face having an elongated body is a constant, a male D class entering is constant, the death of the explorer is constant, and the vastness is constant. It might be that this anomaly was designed to evoke curiosity so that the face creature hunt humans, Going back to your point this seems very likely that the reason is in the third, and that the monster in there is attempting a resurrection. It is also logical that that's why it was hidden, as it is the most threatening. But the third story might not be the entire truth and more clues could be scattered about the first 2.
