10:02 "As he begins to sink into the floor, he screams for help. Nobody who noticed seems motivated enough to help him." If that isn't the most relatable high school experience.
Teacher: Sir, a kid just fell through the floor and there are bodies hanging from the flagpole out front. Principal: Is it snowing? Teacher: ... no Principal: See you tomorrow morning then.
You think anomalies can't retrieve burnt paper? Maybe it was entrusted to SCP-3935 because they 'force' loved faceless people who can't spoil plot points.
Can someone try to fact check this? Either it doesn't work on mobile, I didn't wait long enough for the sound to appear, the site won't work on my browser, something was changed since he/she last read the article or he/she just lied.
@@megaravalkyrie6880 rude, there's plenty of scp entries that have the articles do strange things. i wouldn't be surprised if an article actually had some sort of audio trigger that started playing once you passed a certain point on the page
Grandma Volgun IS an SCP. Her handcrafted quilts are passed down through generations, and each square of fabric bears a unique pattern that vaguely resembles a familiar face, perhaps the quilts previous inheritors? Died peacefully in their sleep, I seem to recall hearing. Can't remember...not important now. Very cozy quilt, thank you Grandma. Looks lovely on my bed.
Theory: The "tenth" is the girl that became pregnant out of wedlock. The town ridiculed and shamed her for it which led to her suicide. She then haunted the English teacher in an attempt to communicate, only able to say hello. The rest of the cheer squad was likely haunted either by the girl herself or the idea that the whole town shamed her to suicide. In a small town like Salvation they were likely very close friends. This led to the whole cheer squad either committing suicide or being consumed by the unreality under the school. The school itself manifested underneath the school in impossible geometry because the girl couldn't believe or accept the reality in which her community would shun her so completely. The effects of the anomaly seem to have started before the girl was pregnant, but they were typically benign. It is possible that the girl was a reality bender that affected the town in small innocuous ways until she was shunned by the town, the resulting psychological trauma led to the sudden shift in paranormal events and the gradual build up to the Foundation getting involved. It's hard to tell if the girl came first or the anomaly came first but that is the beauty of the only spoken account coming from an old women that took janky amnestics, the timeline is kind of suspect.
See, I figured that there was some "Seven Seals" kinda fuckery with the pregnant girl. The suicide, drowning the baby at the pool, the little black entity only saying "Hello.", it feels like the source of the anomaly was the child.
I think the baby was the real anomaly, and it basically caused all or most of the crazy events. Think like a really dark take on X-Men where the baby is a mutant with the reality altering powers, but it can’t control them because babies are dumb like that, and it’s just subconsciously/instinctively screwing up reality around it. If you want to get really depressing, you could say the bottomless lonely abyss, the voice whispering ‘hello’, etc are all reflections of a baby that was abandoned and unwanted. Damn, that is depressing... :/
@@gremlinfifty2308 There is a 1 in a something chance (incredibly high) that you can phase through a solid wall, floor, etc. Neil Degrass Tyson covers it I believe.
@@gremlinfifty2308 Quantum Tunneling, basically there is an infinitesimally small chance that a particle can go through a barrier, instead of bouncing off of it. That would have to happen to every particle in your body. So basically there is a better chance that a black hole forms out of nothing in front of you and swallows you than there is for your entire body to ever phase through an object.
Whoever voiced Mrs Fletcher did a brilliant job. This sounded so much like how my grandmother used to speak before the dementia got too bad. Disjointed conversations, repetition and everything. Such a damn good job.
Anybody have a theory on what's happening here? Is it tied to the teacher's dementia? The pregnant cheerleader? It seems to be something "bigger than reality," but that final scene throws that into question for me. Like is there a chance this whole reality distortion is the fallout of some small town highschool drama?
The teacher's dementia is likely linked to early amnestics. Before the SCP foundation found the serpent under the sea, early amnestics were dangerous and unreliable, hence her ability to remember anything at all.
So I’m guessing the cheerleaders are the 10 undead girls, 9 of which like to float around, and I’m guessing the one that doesn’t was the one that got pregnant and the kid that likes hanging out on ceilings and saying hello to people is her child. Can’t quite work out what caused the whole thing or why but that’s the fun of SCPs.
I think the Baby was a reality Bender so when she got pregnant things start to go out of wack and now the baby kind of floats around looking for friends but is also kind of insane since its a baby reality bender. It keeps its Mom down in the ground safe and the cheerleaders were probably the mom's only friends so thats why they have "special privilage" or whatever. Also the suicide note said "wet" which is the only thing a baby in the womb would feel? Lots to digest in this one
Pretty sure the other 9 cheerleaders hung the one that got pregnant out of wedlock and her ghost took advantage of a non-euclidian SCP to get revenge. And doing so fucked up the SCP permanently.
I know this comment will get lost in the noise but I wanted to say, FANTASTIC voice acting! Especially the lady who played the poor old schoolteacher. Great quality and wonderful emotion there.
You should watch Volgun's video on SCP-049, the metallic voice he made for it was so good he and the original author of the SCP collaborated and made it cannon by adding the audio file of the interview with SCP-049 with Volgun's voice on the article. That voice fits 049 really really well, you have to check it out, its fantastic.
I would usually agree, but I found him a little rushed in this reading. His pauses for commas are longer than his pauses for periods, making the sentences sound run-on. I usually love his work, but this one has me a little disappointed.
"The way below winds deeper, longer. Unspeakable its patterns laid. The lost forever damned to wander this thing a quiet madness made." Absolutely chilling.
A quiet madness made this thing. The patterns of the way are unspeakable, but the way goes deep and long. The lost are damned to wander. Gives a bit of insight to revisit the poem and straighten the syntax out a little.
I like how volgun incorporates accents to evoke a sense of how large the foundation is. Also how he tends to fit the right accents to the proper areas. And grandma volgun did a spot on impression of an older American reminiscing over lost memory.
I have a lot of nightmares where I think “damn, that would be a really good SCP if I knew how to write.” So I’m glad other, more talented people have very similar ideas.
I once had a dream that I was a foundation agent investigating an SCP that was basically the SCP Foundation but as a theme park (think an SCP-themed DISNEYWORLD) with the anomalies as mascots.
I have an idea for a COGNITOHAZARDOUS SCP file with the purpose of training people to handle a dangerous memetic entity, but the thing is, only people with o5 clearance can view the file. An incident occurs where the file is leaked to people under o5 clearance. Sound good?
get in contact with people who can help you, i have an idea, a kinda meme-ish SCP. a digital PNG of something, that whenever viewed cuases intense happiness, euphoria, arausal, confidence in the viewer, becoming a drug, people exposed to it will go to any lengths to view it,. im not sure if this is original but i like it

There are definitely at least 2 main entities at work here. One larger madness inducing entity concentrated below the pool and another being the 10th cheerleader that was bullied into committing suicide. Really interesting SCP and I love how Lovecraftian it felt.
@@mattylewin1684 I feel like the 9 Cheerleaders aren't main entities themselves and more of an extension or under the control of the 10th. Like the 10th definitely has their souls and is eternally tormenting them so the 9 Cheerleaders aren't acting on their own.
I think you hit the nail on the head, although maybe the 10th cheerleader was pregnant with the entity? Reminds me a little bit of the Silent Hill movie
23:13 this doesnt even seen acted, this seems like genuine hysteria, caused by trauma or rejection of his situation. Literally going insane, he pulls it off so damn well
@@abreathingcoffin8089 That's the point in psychological horror games, to instill fear by giving the player a lack of understanding, plus anomalous events/sounds.
There are so many SCP readings channels nowadays, especially with the animated channels... still, TheVolgun is the best readings around. "This Thing a Quiet Madness Made" - 3935 has been creeping me out for years and this is my favorite version now. Really though, this sounds like a teenage high school drama made by CD Projekt Red.
I don't love their voice but God, are the videos good. Always thought him and The Volgun are the most informative/entertaining. Other channels usually have condensed information
@@josantiago3652 his writing, structure and explanations are superb. Really great at breaking things down in an informative and interesting way. I love that he explains references to other scps that i missed
@@jblade8028 Same and I feel like I am being held by the hand while walking through these scary stories. While Volgun feels like I am reading the document alone in a cold dark room. Not good for sleeping. But in the end, I love them both!
I feel like I've heard you talk about this SCP before. Like Deja-vu. The thought of the building being over another and another and another like that was chilling. Circles of hell, and the visions of a dark spectre. A wonderfully eerie SCP. Great work on your presentation of it.
I like how the elderly teacher keeps saying "Hello" - just like the disembodied voice in the school. It's like the being is attempting to force her to stop talking about it by trying to "talk over her". It's probably been inside their heads for so long manipulating their thought perceptions and that's why a lot of things "didn't worry them", but THIS teacher is able to fight it at her old age and actually keep talking about it. Or at least that's my take on it.
For those confused, this has ties to the Class of '76 timeline. A series of unexplainable events all correlating around Highschool, and a group of hostile Reality Benders called the Syncope Symphony.
Actually, it doesn't. The syncope thing was a passing reference, and the syncope symphony article, 4833, was written years later by an entirely different person as that author's own take on the group. The original '76 story, Rememberence, doesn't mention Reality Benders anywhere. The Symphony, especially the version of the Symphony in 4833, had nothing to do with this
I absolutely love this SCP. something about how wistful and old-timey the name is makes me almost want to get it tattooed on me (though having "this thing a quiet madness made" as a tattoo screams "I'm a mentally unstable weirdo") and that's not even mentioning how I just love the lore behind the SCP itself
Lol ok. The guy who turned 1730 from a good entry into an anime script with immortal cyborg super soldiers and threw in a Kaiju battle for good measure? The guy who tries to poach other articles for rewrites so he can grab their likes for himself? Kaktus has to be the most overrated hack on the site. Plus he's a gigantic asshole.
@@Hyperversum3 I dont hate him how could I? I dont know him. I just don't rate him as a writer for reasons that should be apparent to anyone who understands story construction, theres a reason real authors look down on creepy pasta and fan fiction.

@@stevepalpatine2828 Mate, the only fact that you bother to explain so much about a dude who writes on a collaborative effort fiction site tells me that you have stronger opinions about the issue than it's normal.

I've seen an entire thread going about how this SCP came into being, and thought I'd throw my two cents in as a possible explanation. The one that makes the most sense to me. I believe the story is centered around a cheerleader who became pregnant through some means the community considered "scandalous." Likely something that happened with another classmate, as evidenced by the teacher saying "she didnt want the boys to see," suggesting she didnt want the child's father to find out. At this time, she likely caught a ton of flak from the community what woth its stringent religious doctrines and its tight knit nature. There is also the possibility that something terrible occurred with the janitorial staff as well, given that she found the janitorial closet closest to the gateway. Perhaps she was raped? Perhaps she went to them for an abortion? Either option is truly horrific. In either event, this is where the anomaly comes into affect. It seems she encountered the gateway at this time, which provided undo stress on her psyche and body. She lost the child at some point, though this seems intentional and contributed to her fracturing psyche. I suspect a source of particular trauma was the other cheerleaders. Regardless, I think what happened is that her broken psyche reflected onto this anomaly in some way, either by her having latent reality bending abilities, an anomaly latched onto her or perhaps even more bizarre, her unborn child possessing those abilities. I think the second option is more likely though. She wanted to disappear and ultimately, this anomaly granted her wish; a monkey's paw ordeal that drove her to a vengeful suicide. Once dead after losing the unborn child, the madness of the circumstance took hold and manifested. Her presence was erased from the minds of everyone there, which is why there are so many "unknown students" and loss of memories of a specific person, an effect that echoed on the ones that tormented her the most. This vengeance also seems especially pronounced against the other cheerleaders who have been made to be "ugly," "unremarkable," and "faceless." The "black humanoid figure" also seems to be either the girls unborn child, supporting two further theories. That either the child is the source of the anomaly or that the child is a host for the anomaly. The first, as I write this, seems likely as its immature, undeveloped understanding of circumstances became a sort of fulfillment of its mother's wishes. It sought to do for her as a dutiful child might do for their parent, erasing her presence and being driven mad by the circumstances, "falling forever" into the grave of the school that was made his home, the thing this quiet madness made. While the details are vague, this seems to be the best explanation one can gleam so far. A tale of vengeance, misunderstanding, immaturity and what trauma can do to afflict the mind and will of one given power beyond their control. C²R
NO. As a QA tester I can tell you our nightmares are not bad behavior in the software. Instead our nightmares are devs making changes and not documenting them for us to test, devs making changes that do not follow agreed upon specifications, and completely overhauling major systems right before a deadline. Those are nightmares. Behaviors in a virtual world as described in this SCP is simply an interesting software puzzle to solve.
@@zurreal9783 I understood that when I wrote my comment. Your comment makes QA testers the over simplified target of the joke. But really, the whole point of QA is to report this stuff not fear it. It is as if you said SCP-682 was Steve Irwin's worst nightmare.
I never would've caught that. So creepy when you know she also says she's been told Not to Think About the "hallucinations", that had to be then telling her To think of them because it makes people Worse the more they "think about it".. like they didn't want her to tell 🤔 thanks for your comment! Some of these stories are so good but some things just go way over my head heh
Earlier in the interview she stops several times and says "Hello?". I thought it was weird the first time and when she did it again I got the feeling she was talking to something else....
@@themadmanescaped1 oh true true. I just thought she kept on saying hello because she was an older lady who wasn't really all their but what you say does make far more sense
Wait. Now I think the hallucinations wanting her to "think about it" are result of the Syncope Symphony that's trying to get people to remember their real lives and remember them.... if you take the Symphony as more than Canon I guess, idk, there's people way smarter than me who have it figured out lol it's fun to try anyway
TheVolgun, did you get a new mic or trying something different with audio? Dr. Millar sounds a little different in the beginning. Almost like the SCP or the Foundation is wearing him down. His mood seems to tick up a bit further into the report.
This has got to be one of the most frustratingly confusing and well written SCP's out there. I have no idea what this even is about, but I'm incredibly interested.
"The way below winds deeper, longer. Unspeakable its patterns laid. The lost forever damned to wander this thing a quiet madness made." Dang thats some good poetry.
It still boggles my mind how these eyewitnesses brush off these anomaly as a prank or a joke, especially the part where the school shifted or when there is a couple inch of water flooding the school
@@Anjiruu that's the scariest thing about this SCP. If the girl that gave birth to it hadn't drowned it and contained it, it would have been unstoppable.
Every time I see a Volgun vid get uploaded, all lights are turned off in my room, I grab myself a snack or drink, put on my soundproof headphones, and then proceed to enjoy this vocal/audio campfire story...
This puts me in mind of something my grandfather told me from his home town, a poverty stricken dot on the map (his term) in Minnesota. A string of disappearances, all kids, all from the same high school. Long story short, it turned out that a large group were playing Russian Roulette together, and hiding the the bodies. They blackmailed new members by paying them to "join the party", and telling the that they'd all go to prison if they told. I think someone did tell in the end, and the police put a stop to it. I don't know if this story is true, and I don't think my grandfather father was involved, but it scared me. I never went to parties with people I didn't know.
Something I always think about is how scary it would be to live in a universe like this, especially for SCP agents. You never know what a paranormal entity could do, and because there are things that can warp reality, they could totally disable any equipment you have and there's no real way to prevent it.
Ah, waiting for that "hello?" again, feeling like an old man clutching a shotgun, aiming at the door. Also Grandma Volgun is the definition of blursed, love it
awww yeah I always liked this one Edit: Well dang that was eerie. It would be so fun to have a Goosebumps choose-your-own-adventure-style SCP initial exploration book. Like *Turn to page 62 to go back. Turn to page 90 to FALL FOREVER. FALL FOREVER. FALL FOREVER. FALL FOREV-*
At about 13:30 I legit said "ew, why couldn't it have just been human blood?". Thankfully I was home alone at the time, would have been hard to explain that one.
People clipping through walls into unexplainable environments, seeing ethereal children crouched on the ceiling of a room, nine glitchy human females seemingly phasing in and out of existence - only to stalk you and eventually bring you to madness... Genuinely creeped me the hell out; although I can definitely say one thing about it... It sounds like my kind of Gmod server!
That Was Fucking Scary Shit man, i normally watch your videos before going to sleep but now i just can't Great work, loved the interview This is one of your better videos si far un therms of Quality narration
@@Herpaderple Yeah, calling something "non-Euclidean" to try and be scary is basically just shorthand for, "yeah, it's Lovecraft, I'm sure you get it." It's cosmic horror's equivalent to filling out a mad libs.
The point is supposed to be that its dimensions and measurements do not align with reality. Euclid being a pioneer of our understanding of geometry, it makes perfect sense.
I think that what makes SCPs like this that happen in small towns/are small towns scary (at least to people like me that live in small towns) is that you can imagine it happening to you.
Remember, Syncope was also involved with Kirk Lonwood High School, another place associated with bizarre SCPs related to high school life. Looks like this is another place Syncope corrupted.
The way that this article plays on humanity's innate fear of the unknown is absolutely bone chilling. Definitely one of the better articles I've listened to/read and I've gone through a lot of them.
A reality bending girl gets pregnant out of wedlock, is scandelous in a small town, people find out she is ostracized. She drowns the child and loses her mind in the proccess, eventually culimating in suicide. She then goes on to haunt and torment the town and inhabitants for shunning her. She drives others to madness and suicide through the torment including her fellow cheerleaders, 9 of them. She begins affecting her fellow students and teachers, in almost perfect mimicry of her suffering, making them suffer traumatic events while everone else looks on without care nor attempt to help. She creates her own hell beneath the school, one that cannot be escaped, built to drive any who find it to the same hopeless despair she felt in her final living moments and one by one she began luring and leading people into it on an eternal lust for vengeance
@@otwone5123 Yes the UIU is most of the time considered a joke that's why their used as cannon fodder for really bad Scp When they are used that's why thing's get series. Their like the first victims of a horror movie
so if i am getting the story right one of the cheerleaders who was a lasbo in the 1970s got found out somehow by the town had a scandal got picked on had a close connection with the janitorial staff. who had access to the scp 3935 gateway under the school she somehow got pregnant and she did not want the boys presumably the one from the swim team to find out and they did ( and she was hearing things by the pool thanks to the gateway) i am betting she had a miscarriage after something happened with her and the swim team by the pool she commented suicide the chair squad after hearing what happened to their follow teammate and being infulmance by the door and whatever hazard was on the pregnant girls note also commented suicide and thanks to the door was forgotten about until the door was opened somehow and is expanding with each new person who enters the door as for the black figer take your own guess might be the being behind the door in the first place or the pregnant girls child. anyways that's my thoughts and also why didn't they say hello back that's just rude
Re-watched this again and had some thoughts. It's established or at least widely agreed upon that the source of the SCP's power is the secret that the town keeps, and ignoring any questions or investigations about it gives it more power making the effects worse. But I think, had it been left alone, it would've still continued on as just "weird happenings" in a small town that the older generations just tell you to move on from and not ask again. I think things only got worse because the UIU got involved and kept questioning people. A small town with secrets to keep suddenly having a couple feds asking questions to everybody. They're gonna be even more wary and just deny things. But since they're feds, and they kept asking questions, it gave the SCP more and more power. So things escalated beyond what it would've had it been left alone. And then the school incident happened and the UIU made it way worse by issuing their amnestics to the residents. It's one thing to make them forget about the extreme thing the anomaly just did which also probably fueled the anomaly, the amnestics also screwed with their general memory functions, making any memory of whatever secret that's at the core of this anomaly even more blurry. So instead of a possible conclusion to this horror story by way of the townsfolk exposing and admitting what those secrets are and dispelling this curse upon the town, as time went on the secret gets even more muddy and covered up. A reality bending curse that was robbed of its resolution continues on. Even after evacuating, the curse followed the townsfolk, with them not being able to reproduce, and how the old teacher was saying "hello" in the middle of talking, in a questioning manner, as if answering back to a "hello".
[BEGIN LOG] Agent Aimes: Can you tell me about your time at Salvation? Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, well… you know, I already told you about the memory loss. Just can't seem to string anything together anymore6… I was a teacher though, see. I taught, uh… English… I believe, and yes, I was at Salvation for some time. Agent Aimes: What can you tell me about the town? Anything you remember that stands out? Mrs. Fletcher: Well… it was quiet, you know. One road in and one road out. We didn't get many outsiders, so we were a pretty tight knit community. I don't even think we had police, you know, because who would need them? We didn't have crime, not really. (Pauses) There were always some people who would tell stories, you know. They… Agent Aimes: Yes? Mrs. Fletcher: What? Hello? Hello? Agent Aimes: You were just talking about people telling stories, Mrs. Fletcher. Mrs. Fletcher: Oh. The young people would go out into the woods and get themselves all riled up about whatever spook or specter they thought they were seeing out there. (Pauses) There were some things that were strange. Well, I don't know if they were actually strange, or if it's just my memory giving me trouble again. Like… sometimes, you'd be driving down the street and you'd see somebody standing on the side of the road, waving, just like this. And you'd look back and nobody would be there. I think it was just the kids playing pranks on people. Agent Aimes: What about at the high school? Anything strange ever happen there? Mrs. Fletcher: High school? Agent Aimes: Where you were a teacher. Salvation High School? Mrs. Fletcher: I… yes, I was a teacher. I taught English, I think. Agent Aimes: Do you remember anything strange happening at the school? Mrs. Fletcher: No… no, I mean, nothing out of the ordinary. We did have a child disappear once, I think. The last she was seen was by the pool… and then nobody ever saw them again. I just think- well, I think they ended up saying they just ran away. Some of them were problem children, you know, trouble. And there's just nothing you can do. Maybe it was better for them, I don't know. There were a lot of people in Salvation who had some strong opinions, and some of them didn't sit very well with the young people. Agent Aimes: What do you mean? Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, you know. The church was very important in town, we had a few and almost everyone went. But we had, if I remember this right, there was one girl who got pregnant, I think… I'm sorry, what were we talking about? I can't… I can't seem to… hello? Agent Aimes: A girl who got pregnant. Mrs. Fletcher: Yes, out of wedlock; it was quite a scandal. I don't remember what happened to her, but I know a lot of people were very upset about it. (Pauses) You know, I don't remember that girl's name… no, no… but I do remember her coming to me one time and asking about something strange she had heard. She was pregnant, out of wedlock. It was quite a scandal, and didn't want- well, didn't want the boys to see, but… she said she was sitting on the bleachers, and kept hearing a- a knocking. Like somebody hitting… hitting something… she didn't want the… the boys… didn't want them to- Agent Aimes: Mrs. Fletcher? Mrs. Fletcher: I'm sorry, I'm just so all over anymore. She, uh, she said she would see things sometimes too, but I don't know anything about that. She also… well, I don't know if I dreamed this or not, but I remember her saying hello to me, too many times. All at once, too, not like a greeting. Like it was the only word she knew for… for a moment, like she… like it was all she… hello? Agent Aimes: Is there anything else about Salvation you remember? Mrs. Fletcher: I… (pauses) It all blurs together, after all this time. I seem to remember there was one time… one time when the, ah, well, somebody found a girl… maybe the, the same… well, I don't know, but they were strung up in the woods, like a hanging. I think they called it a suicide, one of the girls who did cheer, you know, but uh, it was somebody who… well, I don't know why they'd do anything like that. They had a note, uh, they had written… with uh… I'm sorry, anyway, a note in their hand. Actually asked me to look at it, see if it was the same handwriting and everything. Agent Aimes: What did it say? Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, well… if I remember right, it was on one side, they just had a, just like a drawing. Like a building, but strange somehow… I don't remember why. On the other it was just a word written over and over again… I don't remember what it was, I think it was wet, or… or something, you couldn't make it out. Very queer, now that I think… think of it… what a strange thing to write just before you die. Don't you think? Agent Aimes: Do you remember anything from the week you were evacuated? Mrs. Fletcher: No, no, well… I mean, the vapors were very strong that week, from the factory. They said that we might experience hallucinations, and I definitely did… see, I saw, I mean, saw some things. I saw… well, there was one day I imagined a child floating backwards into a wall and then… well, then they, uh… suffocated. Heard him screaming and pounding against the wall, we all did. It was a… a strange hallucination. He stopped… I'm sorry, what am I doing here again? Agent Aimes: We're just talking, Mrs. Fletcher. I'm here with the insurance company. You were talking about the hallucination, remember? About the boy in the wall? Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, yes. I'm sorry, I just don't remember quite so well anymore. The hallucination, though… I saw that boy go in, and then we didn't hear anything else. Now that I think about it, that's very peculiar. The hallucination was very clear, he just… he cried for a long time, and seemed so afraid, but… well… I don't, um… I don't seem to remember it bothering me. I… I think it must have just been a- a prank. Agent Aimes: One last question, Mrs. Fletcher. After the earthquake, they found a room underneath the basement near the pool. Do you know anything about that? Mrs. Fletcher: (Shifts uncomfortably) No, I don't- nobody ever went into that room but the janitors, I think. Just storage. Though… (pauses) you know, I think that girl asked about that room once. Said she… well… she heard some things coming from it. She was very interested in it, I think, before she… uh… well, either way. But I don't know, I might not be remembering that right. I do- well, some of the hallucinations, you know, they told us not to think about them anymore, so I do try not to, but… I know some other people who have, and they… they aren't doing very well anymore. Agent Aimes: Thank you again for your time, Mrs. Fletcher. (Stands to leave) Actually, before I go, do you think you know anything about this? (Shows the subject an image taken of the nine unidentified female figures.) At this point, the subject becomes noticeably pale and short of breath. Mrs. Fletcher: Well… yes, I do. Those are the, uh- that's the cheerleaders. (Pauses) There were, uh, well, let me think… there were ten of them, though, I think. Unless something happened to one of them, there were definitely ten.

You're finally awake!
I seriously can’t believe I’ve survived this long in Indiana with all the anomalies walking around here
I was born there an my home town was an anomaly within itself
Maybe you ARE an anomaly and just don’t know it yet 🤔
I think it's probably a memetic effect of some sort. Ie, something about the SCP convinces people affected by it that this is perfectly normal.
Have you even met someone from Indiana. I can't recall a single notable person from there. Or anyone for that matter. Possible scp
Can't wait for Gary, Indiana to become the next SCP

Grandma Volgun - we need a new series
Grandma Volgun IS an SCP. Her handcrafted quilts are passed down through generations, and each square of fabric bears a unique pattern that vaguely resembles a familiar face, perhaps the quilts previous inheritors? Died peacefully in their sleep, I seem to recall hearing. Can't remember...not important now. Very cozy quilt, thank you Grandma. Looks lovely on my bed.
The Queen..!?
I've heard her maiden name was Gray
Theory: The "tenth" is the girl that became pregnant out of wedlock. The town ridiculed and shamed her for it which led to her suicide. She then haunted the English teacher in an attempt to communicate, only able to say hello. The rest of the cheer squad was likely haunted either by the girl herself or the idea that the whole town shamed her to suicide. In a small town like Salvation they were likely very close friends. This led to the whole cheer squad either committing suicide or being consumed by the unreality under the school.
The school itself manifested underneath the school in impossible geometry because the girl couldn't believe or accept the reality in which her community would shun her so completely. The effects of the anomaly seem to have started before the girl was pregnant, but they were typically benign. It is possible that the girl was a reality bender that affected the town in small innocuous ways until she was shunned by the town, the resulting psychological trauma led to the sudden shift in paranormal events and the gradual build up to the Foundation getting involved.
It's hard to tell if the girl came first or the anomaly came first but that is the beauty of the only spoken account coming from an old women that took janky amnestics, the timeline is kind of suspect.
Holy crap. I love this theory
See, I figured that there was some "Seven Seals" kinda fuckery with the pregnant girl. The suicide, drowning the baby at the pool, the little black entity only saying "Hello.", it feels like the source of the anomaly was the child.
Exactly
I think the baby was the real anomaly, and it basically caused all or most of the crazy events. Think like a really dark take on X-Men where the baby is a mutant with the reality altering powers, but it can’t control them because babies are dumb like that, and it’s just subconsciously/instinctively screwing up reality around it. If you want to get really depressing, you could say the bottomless lonely abyss, the voice whispering ‘hello’, etc are all reflections of a baby that was abandoned and unwanted. Damn, that is depressing... :/

Whoever voiced Mrs Fletcher did a brilliant job. This sounded so much like how my grandmother used to speak before the dementia got too bad. Disjointed conversations, repetition and everything. Such a damn good job.
I think it's actually Mr. Volgun himself
It's the same actor for all the voices I think
Anybody have a theory on what's happening here? Is it tied to the teacher's dementia? The pregnant cheerleader? It seems to be something "bigger than reality," but that final scene throws that into question for me. Like is there a chance this whole reality distortion is the fallout of some small town highschool drama?
its not the first time an SCP cames to be because a reality bender goes through some traumatic experience.
@@Koakimeiruvalafar this is a good point.
Maybe a reality bender questioned their own existence and it threw everything out of whack?
The teacher's dementia is likely linked to early amnestics. Before the SCP foundation found the serpent under the sea, early amnestics were dangerous and unreliable, hence her ability to remember anything at all.
L
So I’m guessing the cheerleaders are the 10 undead girls, 9 of which like to float around, and I’m guessing the one that doesn’t was the one that got pregnant and the kid that likes hanging out on ceilings and saying hello to people is her child. Can’t quite work out what caused the whole thing or why but that’s the fun of SCPs.
I think the Baby was a reality Bender so when she got pregnant things start to go out of wack and now the baby kind of floats around looking for friends but is also kind of insane since its a baby reality bender. It keeps its Mom down in the ground safe and the cheerleaders were probably the mom's only friends so thats why they have "special privilage" or whatever. Also the suicide note said "wet" which is the only thing a baby in the womb would feel? Lots to digest in this one
I’m pretty sure the mother drowned the child which is why the anomaly is right by the pool
Pretty sure the other 9 cheerleaders hung the one that got pregnant out of wedlock and her ghost took advantage of a non-euclidian SCP to get revenge. And doing so fucked up the SCP permanently.
It was an extra dimensional abomination that found it's way into this one. The girl contained it by drowning it in the pool.
Under cheerleaders for undead football players.
Then they jump in the line and rock their body in time.

@@brushdogart - Agree totally, and if he isn't doing voice over work I think he's missing out on a lot of money!
You should watch Volgun's video on SCP-049, the metallic voice he made for it was so good he and the original author of the SCP collaborated and made it cannon by adding the audio file of the interview with SCP-049 with Volgun's voice on the article. That voice fits 049 really really well, you have to check it out, its fantastic.
I would usually agree, but I found him a little rushed in this reading. His pauses for commas are longer than his pauses for periods, making the sentences sound run-on. I usually love his work, but this one has me a little disappointed.
"The way below winds deeper, longer.
Unspeakable its patterns laid.

Absolutely chilling.

@@sideways5153 So in sorts its a purgatory.
I like how volgun incorporates accents to evoke a sense of how large the foundation is. Also how he tends to fit the right accents to the proper areas.
And grandma volgun did a spot on impression of an older American reminiscing over lost memory.
I have a lot of nightmares where I think “damn, that would be a really good SCP if I knew how to write.” So I’m glad other, more talented people have very similar ideas.
just spring the idea on a writer! bonus being that they add their own touch. you both get your own enjoyment out of it :)
I once had a dream that I was a foundation agent investigating an SCP that was basically the SCP Foundation but as a theme park (think an SCP-themed DISNEYWORLD) with the anomalies as mascots.

I like how the elderly teacher keeps saying "Hello" - just like the disembodied voice in the school.
It's like the being is attempting to force her to stop talking about it by trying to "talk over her".
It's probably been inside their heads for so long manipulating their thought perceptions and that's why a lot of things "didn't worry them", but THIS teacher is able to fight it at her old age and actually keep talking about it.
Or at least that's my take on it.
Maybe some sort of dementia changed her brain so it was harder to mess with her
@@aubreyackermann8432 I was thinking the same, maybe dementia somewhat reversed the effects of the mind wiping the foundation used?
Very possible. Good theory guys👍
My thought was that she still hears the voice and keeps trying to answer it, but cant remember that it keeps happening
the question marks to me indicate that she kept hearing the voice saying hello to her & tried to respond
For those confused, this has ties to the Class of '76 timeline.
A series of unexplainable events all correlating around Highschool, and a group of hostile Reality Benders called the Syncope Symphony.
Is that what drove the nine cheerleaders to suicide? I’m trying to piece it all together. Lol
Actually, it doesn't. The syncope thing was a passing reference, and the syncope symphony article, 4833, was written years later by an entirely different person as that author's own take on the group. The original '76 story, Rememberence, doesn't mention Reality Benders anywhere. The Symphony, especially the version of the Symphony in 4833, had nothing to do with this
I really really enjoyed the voice acting for Mrs. Fletcher. So insanely human and real feeling
I absolutely love this SCP. something about how wistful and old-timey the name is makes me almost want to get it tattooed on me (though having "this thing a quiet madness made" as a tattoo screams "I'm a mentally unstable weirdo") and that's not even mentioning how I just love the lore behind the SCP itself

@@connorhealy1562 Right? One of his best tricks, I'd say.
I've seen an entire thread going about how this SCP came into being, and thought I'd throw my two cents in as a possible explanation. The one that makes the most sense to me.
I believe the story is centered around a cheerleader who became pregnant through some means the community considered "scandalous." Likely something that happened with another classmate, as evidenced by the teacher saying "she didnt want the boys to see," suggesting she didnt want the child's father to find out. At this time, she likely caught a ton of flak from the community what woth its stringent religious doctrines and its tight knit nature. There is also the possibility that something terrible occurred with the janitorial staff as well, given that she found the janitorial closet closest to the gateway. Perhaps she was raped? Perhaps she went to them for an abortion? Either option is truly horrific.
In either event, this is where the anomaly comes into affect. It seems she encountered the gateway at this time, which provided undo stress on her psyche and body. She lost the child at some point, though this seems intentional and contributed to her fracturing psyche. I suspect a source of particular trauma was the other cheerleaders. Regardless, I think what happened is that her broken psyche reflected onto this anomaly in some way, either by her having latent reality bending abilities, an anomaly latched onto her or perhaps even more bizarre, her unborn child possessing those abilities. I think the second option is more likely though.
She wanted to disappear and ultimately, this anomaly granted her wish; a monkey's paw ordeal that drove her to a vengeful suicide. Once dead after losing the unborn child, the madness of the circumstance took hold and manifested. Her presence was erased from the minds of everyone there, which is why there are so many "unknown students" and loss of memories of a specific person, an effect that echoed on the ones that tormented her the most. This vengeance also seems especially pronounced against the other cheerleaders who have been made to be "ugly," "unremarkable," and "faceless."
The "black humanoid figure" also seems to be either the girls unborn child, supporting two further theories. That either the child is the source of the anomaly or that the child is a host for the anomaly. The first, as I write this, seems likely as its immature, undeveloped understanding of circumstances became a sort of fulfillment of its mother's wishes. It sought to do for her as a dutiful child might do for their parent, erasing her presence and being driven mad by the circumstances, "falling forever" into the grave of the school that was made his home, the thing this quiet madness made.
While the details are vague, this seems to be the best explanation one can gleam so far. A tale of vengeance, misunderstanding, immaturity and what trauma can do to afflict the mind and will of one given power beyond their control.

This puts me in mind of something my grandfather told me from his home town, a poverty stricken dot on the map (his term) in Minnesota. A string of disappearances, all kids, all from the same high school.
Long story short, it turned out that a large group were playing Russian Roulette together, and hiding the the bodies. They blackmailed new members by paying them to "join the party", and telling the that they'd all go to prison if they told. I think someone did tell in the end, and the police put a stop to it.
I don't know if this story is true, and I don't think my grandfather father was involved, but it scared me. I never went to parties with people I didn't know.

Something I always think about is how scary it would be to live in a universe like this, especially for SCP agents.

"Silence for nine minutes."
[KEEMSTAR SCREAMING]
"Silence for nine minutes."
Never read this one, but I've seen TES episode on it. Excited to get the whole shebang
That voice acting was amazing. Absolutely nailed the terror in his voice. Man your videos just keep knocking it out the park.
Maybe the 10th cheerleader was actually the first, and was maybe like a completely mad reality bender or something...
Madness and terrible things lie under the surface of many small towns and schools. In this case it became more then a metaphor. Always liked this one.
As soon as the word "Syncope" was mentioned, I was like uh oh...
Why?
@@TTHBLOX_ That group has been involved in a couple SCPs. Usually involving kids if I recall correctly. It... it never goes well.
@@shadelang6480 Also fking up schools
In other words, this is what happens when the game glitches so hard it breaks the game and bricks your computer...
SCP-3935 : haha i'm very scary
GhostBusters : ummm... sir you didn't pay your scare taxs
Wait a fuxking second.... scare taxes?? Were regular taxes not enough :(
People clipping through walls into unexplainable environments, seeing ethereal children crouched on the ceiling of a room, nine glitchy human females seemingly phasing in and out of existence - only to stalk you and eventually bring you to madness...
Genuinely creeped me the hell out; although I can definitely say one thing about it...
It sounds like my kind of Gmod server!
That
Was
Fucking
Scary
Shit man, i normally watch your videos before going to sleep but now i just can't
Great work, loved the interview
This is one of your better videos si far un therms of Quality narration
Student: *sinks through floor*
Everyone: "You always were a kidder, Steve."
I would only have to hear about one of these things happening before I would leave the town any way possible
"The interior of the school has become non-Euclidean."
How horrifying. The school became a building that was built on the ground.
Non-euclidean is a lazy way to sound otherworldly or Lovecraftian. In reality it's like ooooh stuff built on spherical rounded planes. The horror!!
@@Herpaderple Yeah, calling something "non-Euclidean" to try and be scary is basically just shorthand for, "yeah, it's Lovecraft, I'm sure you get it." It's cosmic horror's equivalent to filling out a mad libs.
The point is supposed to be that its dimensions and measurements do not align with reality.
Euclid being a pioneer of our understanding of geometry, it makes perfect sense.
Sweet DAMN you're a good voice actor, Volgun! Seriously, that's talent!
He's actually incredible, I think I say it every video because I'm always blown away
3:25 I love that this path is experiencing gale force winds, helps that the path is totally straight and not winding in any way
The amount of detail in this one is incredible. Netflix or HBO could make a miniseries on this event alone.
I think that what makes SCPs like this that happen in small towns/are small towns scary (at least to people like me that live in small towns) is that you can imagine it happening to you.
Phasing in and out of walls, walking at impossible angles, featureless figures? This just sounds like a glitchy video game
I taught it was the sigma male from the memes from the thumbnail
Girls locker room: omg chesmond is sooo cute
Boys locker room: hello
Remember, Syncope was also involved with Kirk Lonwood High School, another place associated with bizarre SCPs related to high school life. Looks like this is another place Syncope corrupted.
I was just about to say that! I immediately picked up on that, but I haven’t seen anyone else who has.
This came out right as I was cleaning my room. Pog
*Jordan Peterson happy noises*
Scp writers whenever they have witnesses that didn't die: aMnEsTiCs-
As if it's a bad thing
The way that this article plays on humanity's innate fear of the unknown is absolutely bone chilling. Definitely one of the better articles I've listened to/read and I've gone through a lot of them.
This just sounds like a glitchy gmod server.
Even the eyes rolling into the back of a guy's head, before he vanishes into the floor.
The voice actors doing Porter, Haskel and Ellis do a truly amazing job here. The actress doing Mrs. Fletcher deserves an award. "Hello?"
A reality bending girl gets pregnant out of wedlock, is scandelous in a small town, people find out she is ostracized.
She drowns the child and loses her mind in the proccess, eventually culimating in suicide.
She then goes on to haunt and torment the town and inhabitants for shunning her.
She drives others to madness and suicide through the torment including her fellow cheerleaders, 9 of them.
She begins affecting her fellow students and teachers, in almost perfect mimicry of her suffering, making them suffer traumatic events while everone else looks on without care nor attempt to help.
She creates her own hell beneath the school, one that cannot be escaped, built to drive any who find it to the same hopeless despair she felt in her final living moments and one by one she began luring and leading people into it on an eternal lust for vengeance
Now this is what I'm talking about! A really interesting SCP that I've never even heard about. Keep up your amazing work Volgun.
Is it just me or does the thumbnail look like if Gigachad was a Bloodborne boss?
Porter at 23:37 “I HAVE BEEN FALLING, FOR 30 MINUTES!”
You know when the UIU is involved shits serious... Or is that the other one?
If the UIU is involved it's either a joke or a nightmare so bad that d class and the mobile task force is still not enough fodder.
No, it's usually when both the foundation and the GOC are cooperating then shits serious, UIU is kinda usless
@@otwone5123 Yes the UIU is most of the time considered a joke that's why their used as cannon fodder for really bad Scp When they are used that's why thing's get series. Their like the first victims of a horror movie
That fucking ending got me. This is a great one, even though it's hard to piece it all together. "There were definitely ten".
It's hard for me too, good thing volgun is so worth listening to that I don't mind hearing the story again too try and catch things I missed.
Everyone, read House Of Leaves for your homework
Such a great book!
so if i am getting the story right one of the cheerleaders who was a lasbo in the 1970s got found out somehow by the town had a scandal got picked on had a close connection with the janitorial staff. who had access to the scp 3935 gateway under the school she somehow got pregnant and she did not want the boys presumably the one from the swim team to find out and they did ( and she was hearing things by the pool thanks to the gateway) i am betting she had a miscarriage after something happened with her and the swim team by the pool she commented suicide the chair squad after hearing what happened to their follow teammate and being infulmance by the door and whatever hazard was on the pregnant girls note also commented suicide and thanks to the door was forgotten about until the door was opened somehow and is expanding with each new person who enters the door as for the black figer take your own guess might be the being behind the door in the first place or the pregnant girls child. anyways that's my thoughts and also why didn't they say hello back that's just rude
Re-watched this again and had some thoughts. It's established or at least widely agreed upon that the source of the SCP's power is the secret that the town keeps, and ignoring any questions or investigations about it gives it more power making the effects worse. But I think, had it been left alone, it would've still continued on as just "weird happenings" in a small town that the older generations just tell you to move on from and not ask again.
I think things only got worse because the UIU got involved and kept questioning people. A small town with secrets to keep suddenly having a couple feds asking questions to everybody. They're gonna be even more wary and just deny things. But since they're feds, and they kept asking questions, it gave the SCP more and more power. So things escalated beyond what it would've had it been left alone. And then the school incident happened and the UIU made it way worse by issuing their amnestics to the residents. It's one thing to make them forget about the extreme thing the anomaly just did which also probably fueled the anomaly, the amnestics also screwed with their general memory functions, making any memory of whatever secret that's at the core of this anomaly even more blurry.
So instead of a possible conclusion to this horror story by way of the townsfolk exposing and admitting what those secrets are and dispelling this curse upon the town, as time went on the secret gets even more muddy and covered up. A reality bending curse that was robbed of its resolution continues on. Even after evacuating, the curse followed the townsfolk, with them not being able to reproduce, and how the old teacher was saying "hello" in the middle of talking, in a questioning manner, as if answering back to a "hello".
[BEGIN LOG]
Agent Aimes: Can you tell me about your time at Salvation?
Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, well… you know, I already told you about the memory loss. Just can't seem to string anything together anymore6… I was a teacher though, see. I taught, uh… English… I believe, and yes, I was at Salvation for some time.
Agent Aimes: What can you tell me about the town? Anything you remember that stands out?
Mrs. Fletcher: Well… it was quiet, you know. One road in and one road out. We didn't get many outsiders, so we were a pretty tight knit community. I don't even think we had police, you know, because who would need them? We didn't have crime, not really. (Pauses) There were always some people who would tell stories, you know. They…
Agent Aimes: Yes?
Mrs. Fletcher: What? Hello? Hello?
Agent Aimes: You were just talking about people telling stories, Mrs. Fletcher.
Mrs. Fletcher: Oh. The young people would go out into the woods and get themselves all riled up about whatever spook or specter they thought they were seeing out there. (Pauses) There were some things that were strange. Well, I don't know if they were actually strange, or if it's just my memory giving me trouble again. Like… sometimes, you'd be driving down the street and you'd see somebody standing on the side of the road, waving, just like this. And you'd look back and nobody would be there. I think it was just the kids playing pranks on people.
Agent Aimes: What about at the high school? Anything strange ever happen there?
Mrs. Fletcher: High school?
Agent Aimes: Where you were a teacher. Salvation High School?
Mrs. Fletcher: I… yes, I was a teacher. I taught English, I think.
Agent Aimes: Do you remember anything strange happening at the school?
Mrs. Fletcher: No… no, I mean, nothing out of the ordinary. We did have a child disappear once, I think. The last she was seen was by the pool… and then nobody ever saw them again. I just think- well, I think they ended up saying they just ran away. Some of them were problem children, you know, trouble. And there's just nothing you can do. Maybe it was better for them, I don't know. There were a lot of people in Salvation who had some strong opinions, and some of them didn't sit very well with the young people.
Agent Aimes: What do you mean?
Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, you know. The church was very important in town, we had a few and almost everyone went. But we had, if I remember this right, there was one girl who got pregnant, I think… I'm sorry, what were we talking about? I can't… I can't seem to… hello?
Agent Aimes: A girl who got pregnant.
Mrs. Fletcher: Yes, out of wedlock; it was quite a scandal. I don't remember what happened to her, but I know a lot of people were very upset about it. (Pauses) You know, I don't remember that girl's name… no, no… but I do remember her coming to me one time and asking about something strange she had heard. She was pregnant, out of wedlock. It was quite a scandal, and didn't want- well, didn't want the boys to see, but… she said she was sitting on the bleachers, and kept hearing a- a knocking. Like somebody hitting… hitting something… she didn't want the… the boys… didn't want them to-
Agent Aimes: Mrs. Fletcher?
Mrs. Fletcher: I'm sorry, I'm just so all over anymore. She, uh, she said she would see things sometimes too, but I don't know anything about that. She also… well, I don't know if I dreamed this or not, but I remember her saying hello to me, too many times. All at once, too, not like a greeting. Like it was the only word she knew for… for a moment, like she… like it was all she… hello?
Agent Aimes: Is there anything else about Salvation you remember?
Mrs. Fletcher: I… (pauses) It all blurs together, after all this time. I seem to remember there was one time… one time when the, ah, well, somebody found a girl… maybe the, the same… well, I don't know, but they were strung up in the woods, like a hanging. I think they called it a suicide, one of the girls who did cheer, you know, but uh, it was somebody who… well, I don't know why they'd do anything like that. They had a note, uh, they had written… with uh… I'm sorry, anyway, a note in their hand. Actually asked me to look at it, see if it was the same handwriting and everything.
Agent Aimes: What did it say?
Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, well… if I remember right, it was on one side, they just had a, just like a drawing. Like a building, but strange somehow… I don't remember why. On the other it was just a word written over and over again… I don't remember what it was, I think it was wet, or… or something, you couldn't make it out. Very queer, now that I think… think of it… what a strange thing to write just before you die. Don't you think?
Agent Aimes: Do you remember anything from the week you were evacuated?
Mrs. Fletcher: No, no, well… I mean, the vapors were very strong that week, from the factory. They said that we might experience hallucinations, and I definitely did… see, I saw, I mean, saw some things. I saw… well, there was one day I imagined a child floating backwards into a wall and then… well, then they, uh… suffocated. Heard him screaming and pounding against the wall, we all did. It was a… a strange hallucination. He stopped… I'm sorry, what am I doing here again?
Agent Aimes: We're just talking, Mrs. Fletcher. I'm here with the insurance company. You were talking about the hallucination, remember? About the boy in the wall?
Mrs. Fletcher: Oh, yes. I'm sorry, I just don't remember quite so well anymore. The hallucination, though… I saw that boy go in, and then we didn't hear anything else. Now that I think about it, that's very peculiar. The hallucination was very clear, he just… he cried for a long time, and seemed so afraid, but… well… I don't, um… I don't seem to remember it bothering me. I… I think it must have just been a- a prank.
Agent Aimes: One last question, Mrs. Fletcher. After the earthquake, they found a room underneath the basement near the pool. Do you know anything about that?
Mrs. Fletcher: (Shifts uncomfortably) No, I don't- nobody ever went into that room but the janitors, I think. Just storage. Though… (pauses) you know, I think that girl asked about that room once. Said she… well… she heard some things coming from it. She was very interested in it, I think, before she… uh… well, either way. But I don't know, I might not be remembering that right. I do- well, some of the hallucinations, you know, they told us not to think about them anymore, so I do try not to, but… I know some other people who have, and they… they aren't doing very well anymore.
Agent Aimes: Thank you again for your time, Mrs. Fletcher. (Stands to leave) Actually, before I go, do you think you know anything about this? (Shows the subject an image taken of the nine unidentified female figures.)
At this point, the subject becomes noticeably pale and short of breath.
Mrs. Fletcher: Well… yes, I do. Those are the, uh- that's the cheerleaders. (Pauses) There were, uh, well, let me think… there were ten of them, though, I think. Unless something happened to one of them, there were definitely ten.
