17[[folder: Series I (SCP-001 Proposals - SCP-999)]]
18* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/dr-clef-s-proposal Dr Clef's Proposal for SCP-001 ("The Gate Guardian")]] is a very scary example of OurAngelsAreDifferent. Specifically, it is the angel that guards the entrance to The Garden of Eden. It is a massive entity hundreds of feet tall with many wings (up to [[Mystical108 108]]) although usually only around [[FourIsDeath 4]] are visible. It carries a FlamingSword that allows it to completely obliterate anything that attacks it or comes too close to it without visibly moving, no matter how far away the attacker is. It is believed that if it ever moves from its current position then the end of the world will begin. SCP-076-2 ("Able") who is one of the most dangerous [[HumanoidAbomination Humanoid Abominations]] that the Foundation has and a massively AxCrazy BloodKnight, [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness refuses to go anywhere near it]] and [[NoJustNoReaction won't say why]]. (Although this makes sense considering that he possibly is an insane version of Abel from the story of CainAndAbel and so would know not to mess with it). It also has a CompellingVoice which it used to order somebody to create the Foundation.
19* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/qntm-s-proposal qntm's proposal for SCP-001 ("The Lock")]] is a indestructible gemstone that is implied to have [[SealedEvilInACan something horrible sealed within]]. It was originally discovered inside of what appeared to be the temple of a GodOfEvil, and what little could be translated of the runes found there appear to be a spell for sealing something called Apakht. Disturbingly, the black and white patterns on the gemstone resemble the universe's background microwave radiation, and the gemstone itself emits similar radiation, which might be implying that what is inside it could be a threat to the whole universe. [[RecursiveReality Or the Universe itself]]. For some reason, The Foundation thinks that trying to open it is a good idea.
20* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/twistedgears-kaktus-proposal TwistedGears/djkaktus's proposal for SCP-001 ("The Broken God")]] is a massive MechanicalAbomination formed from many mechanical anomalies, believed to be ''the'' Broken God that the Church of the Broken God worships. In the 1940s, during World War II, the Church assembled many of their artifacts around [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-882 SCP-882]] (a mass of gears that assimilates any metal it touches and {{Mind Rape}}s people into feeding it more), the "heart" of the Broken God, in an attempt to remake the Broken God. However, things [[GoneHorriblyWrong went horribly wrong]]; the "Broken God" escaped from the Church and began acting autonomously, behaving like a gluttonous beast that ravenously consumed all machinery, humans, and natural resources in its path, using all of these consumed materials to grow itself endlessly. The "God" crawled across Mexico and ate everything it can find, eventually growing to the size of ''mountains'' and able to devour ''entire villages'' with a single gulp, all the while spewing fire and smoke from within its belly and driving men looking at it mad. The monster was eventually defeated by a different godlike mechanical entity (which was given the cover story of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2399 SCP-2399]]), and its constituents were contained by the Foundation, with its heart (SCP-882) still endlessly screaming for more to eat. [[spoiler:It is also eventually revealed that SCP-882 was't a [=CotBG=] artifact at all, and was instead made by [[GreaterScopeVillain the Factory]]. It was ''never'' the heart of the Broken God; SCP-001 was an abomination and not a god.]]
21* Whatever was responsible for the destruction of the world accessible through [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-093 SCP-093 ("Red Sea Object")]]. It took over the world by claiming to be the Christian God and gave the world advanced technology, along with "his tears", some sort of purifying liquid that was liberally used to cleanse bodies of anything. Cold? Get submerged in tears. Murderous insanity? Submerged in tears. Cheated on your husband? Submerged in tears. They eventually warped victims into faceless, rampaging beasts that absorbed their victims to become stronger and bigger. The away team encounters several the size of skyscrapers. [[FromBadToWorse It gets worse than this. Much, much worse.]]
22* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-173 SCP-173 ("The Sculpture - The Original")]]
23** It only looks like a cheap statue. It's completely motionless as long as someone is looking at it, but it can move inhumanly fast if it's out of sight. For reasons no one knows, it likes to break necks. Blinking while in its room has fatal consequences. When the Foundation exposed 682 to it, 682 was ''terrified'' and immediately grew a bunch of extra eyes so it would never lose sight of 173. One of the short stories on the site offered a look into 173's mind, and it's not pretty. [[spoiler:Worse, it turns out it's only playing a game of peekaboo for its own amusement. There's nothing stopping it from going on a killing spree if it gets bored.]]
24** SCP-173, being possibly the first SCP ever written and one of the most popular, has been subject to a whole lot of AlternateCharacterInterpretation. The spoiler above is just one possibility and it is up to reader to decide whether or not it is true since the SCP Foundation "has no canon," due to being written by many authors who don't always agree with each other. In one of the joke articles not meant to be taken seriously, the real reason it kills humans is revenge for the constant agony from the endless diarrhea the Foundation inflicted on it in one of their dumber experiments. The fact that SCP-682 is terrified of it enough that it doesn't try to attack it may or may not be proof that it is something eldritch. SCP-682 does not perceive reality the same way humans do, so what is an abomination to it might not be one to us. Something that does support, although does not prove, the theory that SCP-173 is something eldritch is the fact that SCP-682 immediately knew not to blink as soon as it saw SCP-173, indicating that it could perceive SCP-173's true nature. There is one other piece of evidence that SCP-173 is something much worse that what we know, and that is what happened when they exposed SCP-187 to it. SCP-187 is a woman with an unusual form of precognition that shows her what major changes any object or person she sees will undergo in the future. When she saw SCP-173, all she could do was scream until she collapsed into a catatonia for two days, and when she recovered she had no memory of what she saw.
25** [[https://wanderers-library.wikidot.com/the-wandering-boy According to this Wanderer's Library page]] it is actually the most recent reincarnation of the High Golem, the first of several monsters that were created as a result of Cain killing Able. [[ResurrectiveImmortality If it is destroyed it will just come back in a new form.]]
26* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-178 SCP-178 ("3-D" Specs)]] is a pair of 3D glasses that allows the wearer to see invisible monsters that brutally kill anybody that tries to interact with them. It isn't clear how real the monsters are since they also seem to be intangible except when killing a victim and also make no sound. They are described as bipeds with extra limbs and too many eyes. [[ParanoiaFuel They apparently are everywhere and they are always watching.]]
27* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-231 SCP-231-7 ("Special Personnel Requirements")]], a girl of undefined age (with the estimated range having a '''[[HarmfulToMinors single digit]]''' minimum), is pregnant with one, [[spoiler:heavily implied to be an offspring of [[BigBad The Scarlet King]] himself]]. It will cause TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt if she's not regularly and brutally [DATA EXPUNGED]. [[spoiler:And maybe it'll do so anyway; [[EasterEgg a well-hidden poem in the article]] implies that the Foundation, far away from keeping it under control, is actually [[UnwittingPawn playing right into its hands]].]]
28* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-245 SCP-245 ("SCP-RPG")]] is a sapient video game character who cannot be described outside of the context of a video game. The Foundation contains him by keeping him imprisoned in a game. At the end of the game he reveals that he is a TimeAbyss who originally could exist in any form of writing, and the player battles with him in his monstrous OneWingedAngel form. [[spoiler:After he is defeated he tricks the player into giving him the game's master password so he can escape into the real world, although if the player goes OffTheRails of the game, he realizes that you already know he is tricking you and that nothing he does actually matters because he actually cannot affect the real world and that he actually doesn't remember what you did in previous saves of the game.]]
29* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-354 SCP-354 ("The Red Pool")]]
30** It's a pond of what looks like blood. [[MookMaker It spawns more monsters, and they've steadily been more and more horrifying and lethal.]] However, that's not the problem. The problem is that it hasn't done anything for a while, and is either dead, or "charging up" for something worse. The speculation of the Foundation members stationed there? ItCanThink, [[OhCrap and it is ANGRY.]]
31** The Foundation has attempted to drain the blood pool. It responded to this by [[MindRape Mind Raping]] everyone present. The above mentioned time when it went for a long period without spawning any monsters occurred before a different incident when it apparently took control of the minds of everyone stationed at it. [[FromBadToWorse It gets worse,]] several of the monsters that emerged from it were dangerous enough that they had to resort to getting help from another SCP to stop them. [[FromBadToWorse Worst of all, they recently noticed that the fluid of the pool has slowly been rising.]]
32** One time, a submarine was sent into the pool and it emerged into a [[EldritchLocation bizarre alternate world]] where at least one other known SCP may have originated from. [[spoiler:The problem is, the exploration never happened. The mission log simply appeared in the database, and the people involved never existed, nor was there any plans to explore. [[MindScrew The cause behind this is never explained.]]]]
33* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/hello-i-am-an-eldritch-horror Hello, I Am an Eldritch Horror.]] [[AssimilationPlot I will be one with all.]] I am an AlternateCharacterInterpretation of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-426 SCP-426 ("I am a Toaster")]], also known as [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/that-goddamn-thing That Goddamn Thing]].
34* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-435 SCP-435 ("He-Who-Made-Dark")]]
35** It's a meteor with one of these bound to it. It's got [[AlienGeometries a very strange shape which includes fractal tentacles]] and [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm can only be distinguished with computer enhanced images]], is seemingly immaterial, any solids that pass through it tend to get violently accelerated at best, and if the meteor isn't illuminated at all times, the thing can move and grow, and might end up going into the ground, with [[FantasticNuke undesirable results]]. The worst part? [[spoiler:That's just the thing's shadow on this universe, it was he who ''made'' the darkness, and hates the light with a passion, which lead to its sealing to the meteor, from which it would take a mere 90 seconds of darkness to escape. Oh, and the emergency plan consisting of "dump the rock in another universe and hope for the best" might just break the seal completely]].
36** He-Who-Made-Dark and his rival He-Who-Made-Light ([[LightIsNotGood who apparently isn't any better than He-Who-Made-Dark]]) appear in several other [=SCPs=]. These include [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-286 SCP-286]], [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-319 SCP-319]], [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-719 SCP-719]], [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1736 SCP-1736]], and [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1806 SCP-1806]]. Several of there are confirmed by the author to have been created out of fragments of the very same meteor that is SCP-435 and all of them have very disturbing effects. 286 is a game board where the players become possessed by said entities, and the results of the game apparently trigger disasters such as solar flares or the movement of SCP-435-1. 319 is a portal to another universe that will cause this universe to be completely rewritten (effectively destroying it) because of the differences in the properties of the universe it connects to. 719 is a radioactive television through which He-Who-Made-Light communicates disturbing messages and it is implied that he could escape into our universe through it. 1736 is a bizarre religion based off of 719 whose leader is similarly radioactive. 1806 [[YouCanNotGraspTheTrueForm completely rewrites the way that people perceive reality,]] allowing them to see entities that exist in shadows and eventually causing them to only be able to speak in WordSaladHorror because our language doesn't have the ability to describe what they see.
37* It is implied that this is what [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-543 SCP-543 ("Noise")]] shows you. The description of it is very vague but it is described as a huge space filled with "things" with a lot of emphasis on the hugeness of it. [[BrownNote Seeing it is very bad for your mental heath.]]
38* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-582 SCP-582 ("A Bundle of Stories")]], is a meme similar to Slender Man about an extremely dangerous and powerful creature with many forms and [[IHaveManyNames many names]]. Any story written about it becomes true. If somebody were to write about it destroying the world, it would do so and it would be impossible to stop, except by preventing the writer from finishing the story.
39* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-682 SCP-682 ("Hard-to-Destroy Reptile")]] is a reptilian creature with a [[OmnicidalManiac murderous hatred toward all life]]. It has one simple ability - the ability to sustain, adapt, and regenerate from ''everything''. Whether it be from mundane sources or other anomalies, it will survive, and continue to wreak havoc upon the world. It is the GodzillaThreshold of the Foundation, with the first line in its containment simply stating:
40---> SCP-682 must be destroyed as soon as possible.
41** When The Foundation tried to have SCP-343 (a seemingly omnipotent man who claims to be {{God}}) kill it, they found that the two of them are unable to perceive or touch each other, and when 343 learned that 682 was what they wanted him to kill, he said, "he isn't one of mine; deal with him yourself".
42** Although the ''Pitch Haven'' canon says he's the snake that got Adam and Eve kicked out of the GardenOfEden and his only goal is to get back there since SCP-343 banished him.
43** [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-738 SCP-738]] appears to be the [[{{Satan}} Devil]] in his [[DealWithTheDevil deal-making guise]]. It says that the price for elimination of SCP-682 without harm to the world is beyond the ability of the Foundation to pay.
44** The Foundation locked it inside [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-536 SCP-536]], a chamber where physics are essentially in sandbox mode, and fiddled with the controls in a way that'd ''completely'' annihilate regular matter. ''SCP-682 enjoyed this.''
45** Dr. Bright, who has the ability to possess people and animals once [[HijackingCthulhu tried to possess 682]]. His own mind told him that he was [[YouCanNotGraspTheTrueForm incapable of comprehending reality through 682's eyes]] and after he was forced out he apparently was completely unable to remember the experience.
46** The Foundation also attempt to tame 682 by showing it [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2140 SCP-2140]], [[BrownNote an image]] that [[CosmicRetcon retcons the past of anybody that sees it]] so that they are, and always have been, loyal to the Foundation. 682 responded to it by saying "I haven't seen these since the time of [DATA EXPUNGED]. It won't work. Unlike you dancing shadows, my past was real and cannot be re-written, as much as I wish it were".
47** At one point, the Foundation tried to destroy 682 by forcing it to walk towards the Gate Guardian version of SCP-001. It was attacked repeatedly and had various parts of its body blasted off, but survived. When SCP-001 ordered it to die, 682 responded "Wouldn't we all like that, [[spoiler:[[Literature/BookOfGenesis but this is my curse for suggesting the fruit]]]]".
48** The 2015 reimagining competition has an alternate 682 who's affectionate instead of hateful, but otherwise has all of the attributes of the regular one. [[spoiler:It turns out that 682 exists in every universe and if it ever dies, that [[ApocalypseHow/ClassZ reality will stop existing. Or more accurately, stop]] ''[[ApocalypseHow/ClassZ ever having existed.]]'' Not only is it an EldritchAbomination, it's a CosmicKeystone.]]
49** [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/summer-s-exile The Serpents Hand gives their own perspective and theories on SCP-682 and some new information about its history in this document.]] The Serpents Hand believes that SCP-682 was banished from its home in another dimension and wants to return, but somehow it always returns to earth if it is sent to any other dimension. The Foundation originally dug up SCP-682's inactive body from a grave and [[NiceJobBreakingItHero accidentally reawakened it by experimenting on it.]] SCP-682 is also somehow connected to The Foundation in an occult way and it is possible that SCP-682 was [[CosmicRetcon created retroactively]] by the Foundation.
50** [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-6820 SCP-6820]] is perhaps the single most extreme attempt by the Foundation to destroy 682 yet. 6820 is a massive, underground facility containing a reality-restructuring superweapon that [[RetGone completely wiped 682 from existence, as well from ever HAVING existed]], by removing it entirely from the domain of human conceptualization. Much of the document is the Foundation trying to figure out just ''what'' they retroactively erased from reality and [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness why they would go to such extreme lengths to destroy an anomaly rather than contain it]]. This notably makes SCP-6820 the first attempt at destroying 682 to actually succeed. [[spoiler:Except not. 6820 only removed 682 from the realm of ''human'' conception, and 682 itself is decidedly ''not'' human. This allows it to take over 6820 from within, eventually resulting it achieving a "perfected" form entirely disconnected from the realm of human conceptual space. Which means it is now just as intent on killing everything, but is now impossible to contain or even properly perceive. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Whoops.]]]]
51* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-861 SCP-861 ("A Fallen Angel")]] is another OurAngelsAreDifferent. It originally was a [[BizarreAlienBiology bizarre creature]] that caused those who directly heard and understood the song it makes to GoMadFromTheRevelation, although this could be avoided by translating the song without understanding it in its original form. It has now been Retconned into something even weirder. It now is an unstoppable mass of burning liquid that becomes [[BerserkButton enraged by exposure to prideful people]] and [[OneWingedAngel will merge with them and turn them into horrifying monsters.]] The writer of the article says that it is an Ophanim; the fluid is the form it takes while on earth.
52* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-874 SCP-874 ("Abyssal Fluid")]] is a liquid that acts as a portal to another dimension that is filled with them. Those who see them are driven violently and suicidally insane. One D-Class personnel who saw them said before committing suicide that he wanted to see things the way they do. It isn't clear what this means.
53* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-911 SCP-911 ("Egyptian Book of the Dead")]] is a scroll that removes the soul of anyone that touches it, usually leaving them as an EmptyShell, but sometimes replacing their soul with that of a person previously trapped in the scroll. It is revealed by one person who escaped from the scroll with his sanity and memories intact that it is a [[SealedEvilInACan prison]] for the soul of an [[MadGod insane]] eldritch abomination (or at least a HumanoidAbomination) that assimilates any other soul in the prison that it manages to catch and it is waiting for the right body to touch the scroll so it can possess them and escape. And since it assimilated an agent of The Foundation, it now knows about the existence of [=SCPs=] and there are two particular censored [=SCPs=] that it wants to merge with.
54* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-993 SCP-993 ("Bobble the Clown")]] is a educational children's cartoon[[note]]that is, the animated show ''itself'' is alive and sentient, and somehow produces and broadcasts itself[[/note]] where a MonsterClown DepravedKidsShowHost named Bobble teaches the viewer how to commit various acts of violence, and he is aware that the SCP Foundation is blocking the show's signal. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/behind-the-scenes In this story]] Bobble reveals that he is a TimeAbyss who has existed in many different forms since cavemen discovered fire, and it is also revealed that [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou he is capable of trapping people in his show in order to kill them.]]
55[[/folder]]
56
57[[folder: Series II (SCP-1000 - SCP-1999)]]
58* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1050 SCP-1050 ("Obsidian Obelisk of Warning")]] is an obelisk with a message warning about entities called The Destroyers. It is implied that they are responsible for many of the extinction events in Earth's history.
59* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1055 SCP-1055]] normally appears to only be a harmless mentally challenged man named Mikey. It becomes more dangerous based on the number of people who know what he really is. [[spoiler:This is a lie. The monster is actually Mikey's teddy bear Bugsy. Mikey (and the Foundation making you think that Mikey is the anomaly) is a part of containment. The more that people fear Bugsy, the more aggressive it becomes, and the more people who are aware Bugsy is alive, the larger and more monstrous it becomes, first turning into an actual bear, then a massive ursine AnimalisticAbomination with CombatTentacles, which further increases people's awareness and fear, causing an uncontrollable and destructive feedback loop. Mikey's positive emotions towards Bugsy, and his inability to understand what Bugsy is due to his handicap, is what's currently keeping it in check. [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou Good job knowing about the truth, dear reader. The bear just got bigger.]] ]]
60* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1128 SCP-1128 ("Aquatic Horror")]] is a sea monster so huge that it eats whales. If you know too much about what it looks like then bodies of water around you will start turning into portals to its location so it can eat you.
61* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1129 SCP-1129 ("Hyperarousal Response")]] gives the ''impression'' of being an Eldritch Abomination. That is, anyone viewing it directly, or viewing a photo or video of it, immediately becomes convinced that it's intrinsically ''wrong'', should not exist, and must be destroyed. However, looking at an illustration of it merely gives the impression that it's strange. Technically, it ''shouldn't'' be able to exist in our universe, since it seems to occupy [[AlienGeometries more than the usual three spatial dimensions]], but that shouldn't cause people to react to it with hatred, loathing, and fear. WordOfGod says it either is or is strongly reminiscent of an "uber-predator", a creature that causes an instinctual fight-or-flight response in ''every animal in existence''.
62* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1142 SCP-1142 ("A Cry for Help")]] is a rolling mine casing used by the Nazis in World War II. It no longer carries explosives, but instead carries a radio receiver that receives broadcasts from Nazis in an alternate timeline of the 1940s. The transmissions themselves are heavily garbled, but from what can be ascertained, the Nazis [[StupidJetpackHitler had created reality-gating technology]] and managed to release something unknown upon the world. Whatever this thing was, it created a 16-kilometer wide sinkhole in Poland, released some sort of flesh-eating plague upon the world and has already killed millions globally. [[spoiler:Their final broadcast contains only one word: "help".]]
63* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1406 SCP-1406 ("An Old Entity")]]. This was the original nature of the entity in the SCP-1406 building.
64-->When the universe was young, the entity was a great, massive thing. Its form was twisted, unnameable and ancient, as to drive men mad in their attempts to envisage it.
65* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1461 SCP-1461 ("House of the Worm")]]. The story ''[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/the-worm The Worm]]'' tells of a man's nightmares about a creature that would devastate Europe and his plan to change his house into a trap for it. His plan worked, but the Worm took over the house and changed it into a domain of evil. [[spoiler:At the end he realizes that the monster was himself all along.]]
66* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1478 SCP-1478 ("Inconveniently Stereotypical Cacti")]] is a HiveMind of sapient cacti that behave like inaccurate southern stereotypes and turn you into one of them if you don't behave southern enough. One of the recently transformed cacti indicates that the original cactus never was human to begin with but is something that wants people to act "southern" for incomprehensible reasons.
67* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1512 SCP-1512 ("Irrational Root")]]. SCP-1512 is an indestructible mass of toxic tendrils that emerged from the brain of a man who was working on an weird math problem. The Foundation prevents it from growing larger by constantly having a group of people within a certain distance of it manually perform math calculations about it while disbelieving the results; WordOfGod compares the containment procedures to ritualistic faith exercises, with mathematics substituting religion/magic.
68* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1710 SCP-1710-1 ("Life as a Tree")]] formerly was an eldritch abomination known as the Serrated Void, an eldritch personification of sharpness. It came to our world chasing after another abomination (possibly SCP-682), but found that it couldn't survive in our world and so it sought out a method of reincarnating into a form that could. Unfortunately, it accomplished this by making a [[DealWithTheDevil deal with a trickster god]], and [[ForcedTransformation ended up reincarnated as a tree]] with nobody to talk to except a woman who fell for the same scam. They make an OddCouple.
69* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1731 SCP-1731 ("An Exercise in Futility")]] is a ritual for summoning one. The Foundation [[TooDumbToLive completed the ritual several times]] ForScience, but luckily they found that every single time they did it the summoned creature would do something to interrupt the ritual, apparently by accident, causing it to disappear again, so they gave up trying to summon it for being pointless. The other possibility presented is that the creature within the fridge does '''not''' want to be disturbed, a notion supported by the ridiculous complexity of the ritual itself and the fridge being yanked on its side during the last ritual attempt. In the words of a commenter, it hit the snooze button.
70* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1739 SCP-1739 ("Obsolete Laptop")]] is a computer containing a program that has the ability to send people back in time, creating an alternate timeline and allowing communication with the alternate timeline, for a period of 3 hours. Whenever it is used an animation of a dog chasing after a ball and breaking it plays. After using the computer several times it was realized that the animation is actually a symbol representing an [[spoiler:Eldritch Abomination (the dog) annihilating the alternate universes (the balls) created by the computer, whose purpose is to keep the thing satisfied, so that it won't decide to break out of its metaphorical chain. The Eldritch Abomination is described as "Something incomprehensibly terrible, in both senses of that word, something that can destroy an entire universe just by passing its shadow over it".]]
71* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1936 SCP-1936 ("Daleport")]] is the ruins of a town where a group called The Victory Society attempted to cull the numbers of abominations out there by summoning them all to one spot and having then fight each other to the death, under the banners of three of them (with others free to attack each other at leisure). The town, and its inhabitants, were caught in the crossfire. Mention of several specific ones is made, while others simply remain partially documented by mention or by footage. Notably, some of the entities involved actually tried to contain the damage rather than spread it.
72* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1959 SCP-1959 ("The Lost Cosmonaut")]] is a lost cosmonaut stuck in orbit around the earth while fighting against an unseen enemy. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/ground-control According to this story]] it is another Eldritch Abomination and he is keeping it from reaching the earth with nothing but HeroicWillpower.
73[[/folder]]
74
75[[folder: Series III (SCP-2000 - SCP-2999)]]
76* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2001 SCP-2001 ("A Space Oddity")]] causes people to believe that outer space is filled with eldritch abominations and that space itself is trying to warn us not to go into space because of the horrors out there.
77* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2014 SCP-2014 ("Zsar Magoth")]] is an eldritch entity who got trapped in the body of a gecko after some guy summoned him in order to [[MundaneUtility cheat at a skateboarding competition.]] Luckily, Zsar Magoth is a pretty AffablyEvil guy and [[VillainsOutShopping just happened to like skateboarding.]]
78* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2059 SCP-2059 ("Wall of Flesh")]] is a mass of flesh that assimilates any living thing that comes into contact with it. The only human to be assimilated by it and retain his sanity has indicated that this is because he's connected to another eldritch entity.
79* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2079 SCP-2079 ("The Law of the Grokodus")]] is a phenomenon that causes governments to pass laws about a creature called The Grokodus, [[WeirdnessCensor and not think there is anything strange about this]]. The Grokodus is a large furry quadruped with no eyes surrounded by floating hands that appears wherever these laws have been passed and its behavior is determined by these laws. The wording of the laws implies that they are a punishment for something The Grokodus did.
80* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2196 SCP-2196 ("The Deep Mote")]], a disk with a tiny light inside it that acts as a BrownNote on anyone who examines it too closely, is implied to be a BiggerOnTheInside [[SealedEvilInACan prison where an eldritch horror is trapped.]] The light that it gives off used to be slightly red, but has changed to slightly blue, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect implying that it is headed towards us at close to lightspeed.]] [[spoiler:According to the author, this also implies that it must be large enough to be visible from lightyears away, and the only thing keeping it trapped is the sheer distance it has to travel to get to the exit.]]
81* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2250 SCP-2250 ("Duck Hunt")]] is a MindVirus that infects ducks and allows a dog eating tentacle monster to emerge from them.
82* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2317 SCP-2317 ("A Door to Another World")]] is a doorway leading to a world where an eldritch abomination related to the above mentioned 231-7 is imprisoned and is on the verge of escaping, and it is only held back by regularly performing a ritual and if that fails then they are prepared to attempt to stop it with a nuke. [[spoiler:Most of this information is a lie. It has nothing to do with 231-7, the ritual doesn't actually do anything, and using a nuke will not work. It is all a cover up to keep anybody from finding out that it will escape and there is nothing the Foundation can do at this point to stop it.]]
83* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2439 SCP-2439 ("[SLOT UNALLOCATED]")]] is a entity that can infect the minds of anybody who knows it exists. The Foundation's D-Class personnel (prisoners used for dangerous experiments and occasionally as sacrifices) are keeping its existence a secret from the rest of the Foundation so they can use it as a weapon against the Foundation and because they know that if it manages to take over the Foundation, the world, and hence their loved ones, are next. Also because they now have one little victory over the Foundation, due to their status as expendable RedShirts.
84* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2440 SCP-2440 ("The Sealed King")]] is an entity called Xiolt-la whose power increases with the number of people who are aware of its existence, and those who are aware of its existence are compelled to spread this information. The Foundation must keep the total number of people who are aware of it at less than 200.
85* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2470 SCP-2470 ("The Void Singularity")]] is an abstract entity that obliterates anything it becomes aware of the existence of, that was summoned by an apocalyptic cult. The only reason why it has not erased the universe already is because it does not understand the universe sufficiently. The Foundation has come up with a method of killing it using a BrownNote but have chosen to keep it around because it is impossible for two universe erasing events to happen at the same time, so as long as it exists it could prevent the universe from being erased by something else. [[spoiler:[[MindVirus It is also implied that copies of it are able to form inside the minds of people who are around it for too long.]] The Foundation stop this from happening by erasing the minds of anyone who shows symptoms of infection before killing them.]]
86* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2521 SCP-2521 ("●●|●●●●●|●●|●")]] is some kind of humanoid tentacle monster that can walk through walls. It can only be safely described with pictograms, [[SpeakOfTheDevil because it steals any text written about it]], and abducts anyone who talks about it [[OhCrap OHCRAPItsgotme]]
87* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2662 SCP-2662 ("cthulhu f'UCK OFF!")]] is a giant tentacled humanoid with mind control powers that make people worship it. Unlike most of the other monsters contained by the Foundation, he is willingly contained because he has [[PowerIncontinence very little control of his powers]] and he is grossed out by the behavior of his worshipers. He has indicated that the reason for his lack of control is because he is not yet matured, and that once he does he will be a lot more powerful. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/skeeve-online And his powers work even by proxy, as he plays an online game.]]
88* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2740 SCP-2740 ("It Wasn't There")]] is a monster living a family's attic. [[AmbiguousSituation Or is there a monster?]] It isn't clear, because it is impossible for anyone to enter the attic so [[NothingIsScarier nobody has ever seen it]], except for the mother of the family, [[YouCanNotGraspTheTrueForm who isn't able to describe what she saw]]. The reason why it is impossible to enter the attic is not because there is anything physically preventing entry, but because if somebody tries to enter the attic, they at first seem to be able to, but then will suddenly discover that [[MindScrew they never did]], as though it was AllJustADream. People can sense its presence because it causes [[SupernaturalFearInducer those in the house to experience a feeling of dread]]. The family living in the house can't just move away, because the same effect that keeps people out of the attic also keeps the family from moving out. It first appeared on the same night that the family's oldest daughter got into a fight with her parents and ran away to start a new life. The Foundation tracks her down and asks her what she thinks about the thing in the attic and she says she believes it was [[TheHeartless created by hatred]]. However, [[UnreliableNarrator she might not be a reliable source of information]] because [[spoiler:[[GainaxEnding she never existed]]]].
89* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2747 SCP-2747 ("As below, so above")]] is an ''anafabula'', or anti-narrative. It is a set of narrative elements that result in the metafictional annihilation of the fictional work it is written into, erasing the work from the world outside of it. Initially studied as a harmless curiosity, a compilation of some of the erased works' descriptions (gathered from second-hand references) shows common themes including intertwined metafictional narratives, references to missing information, lack of closure, and a representation of [[EldritchAbomination an anathema of vast power and incomprehensibility]]. After a study realizes that the anafabula is pataphysical and may affect the Foundation's reality, the Foundation decides to study the anafabula directly using controlled methods to come up with countermeasures, storing the results in Appendix B. The results? [[spoiler:[[WhamLine [DATA LOST]]]. Appendix B just became a lost sub-narrative about an incomprehensible anathema that ends the article without closure, sending the SCP-2747 ''article'' right into SCP-2747's crosshairs. With even the SCP Wiki itself being an endingless nested intertwined narrative discussing incomprehensible abominations like SCP-2747, [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou just where will the anafabula go next?]]]]
90* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2764 SCP-2764 ("The Eldritch Antarctic")]]. SCP-2764 is a creature that is approximately 382 meters tall and weighs over 150,000 metric tons. It has around 80 large tentacles that it uses for movement and manipulation, and can communicate using {{telepathy}}. It generates an area of AlienGeometries around it in a 50-kilometer radius, causing difficulty with observations of it.
91** The journal of one explorer implies that said creature [[spoiler:is actually a view of his own future self, seen through distorted space and time.]]
92* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2803 SCP-2803 ("TotleighSoft - "Because COMPUTERS!"™")]] is a software company that manufactures supernatural video games [[TheMostDangerousVideoGame which are often harmful to players.]] The CEO of the company is a mind-controlling {{Starfish Alien|s}}. Containment of 2803 involves convincing 2803-A to continue making video games because in its previous "job" it was doing something far worse. Whatever it was doing is censored, but it involved "obliterating".
93* The assorted components of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2877 SCP-2877 ("it h8ts it here")]] are very, very strange:
94** SCP-2877-1 is a transparent block of... something... that does not play nice with laws of physics and chemistry and was created when an expunged dimensional experiment went horribly wrong. It used to be the air in the testing chamber, but the experiment converted it into this material, killing everyone in the room by way of vacuum exposure. It converts all elements it comes into contact with that have an atomic number ending in 8 into more of itself with no energy release despite this causing a loss in mass. The only way to prevent this is for said elements to be in a compound that includes an element whose atomic number ends with 7 as least 7% of said compound's mass. Upon contact with radium (element 88), both substances decay into alpha particles, though the process stops in the presence of iridium (element 77). Its refractive index is also exactly 7 for all wavelengths. Noticing a pattern? The only oddities are that two of its dimensions and the wavelength of all of its blackbody radiation are 1.257 multiplied by various powers of 10, though these still end with 7.
95** SCP-2877-2 and -3 were created in an attempt to melt a sample of SCP-2877-1. Everything that absorbed infrared radiation, including people, in line of sight of the SCP-2877-1 became SCP-2877-2, a perfectly reflective, superconducting material that emits no blackbody radiation. The sample expanded by a factor of 8 and then was reduced to 1/7 of its original volume by this process, becoming SCP-2877-3. SCP-2877-3 is a piece of rainbow-colored metal that causes surrounding matter to act strangely, forming compounds that shouldn't exist. While surrounding it with pure elements ending in 7 blocks the effects, these elements themselves still react, requiring a constant supply of new materials. Anything that touches -3 also disintegrates into anomalous matter. [[spoiler:People who are exposed to it also have their minds affected by it, becoming obsessed with SCP-2877-3 and the number seven in various ways. It also tries to convince people that things involving 8 are fundamentally "wrong" somehow, to the point of driving a teacher who was to give a lecture on electron shells to suicide. It also flat-out kills anyone who recites numbers containing all 8's (8, 88, 888, etc.) in its presence. For further weirdness, astute readers of the article will notice that the numbers affected by this SCP end in 7 or 8 in base 10 instead of being, say, multiples of 7 and 8. The article's author has stated that on the discussion page that this is deliberate. This should tell you just how alien these things are: whatever caused all of this came from a realm whose very mathematical properties are fundamentally different from the ones we know.]]
96* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2935 SCP-2935 ("O, Death")]] is a cave in Indiana that functions as a portal to an alternate universe, where an unknown event happened that caused all life in the universe to instantly die. ALL life. Everything you could possibly consider to be "alive", whether organic or inorganic, sentient or inanimate, ordinary or anomalous, terrestrial or divine - all of it, DEAD. Leftover food no longer rots because there is no living bacteria left to grow on it. Sentient AIs employed by the Foundation would not respond to inputs by exploration teams. [[spoiler:It even managed to kill SCP-682, something considered by Foundation scientists to be impossible.]] A Foundation exploration team went into this dead world to try to find the causes behind the deaths. However, they found something that made them decide to kill themselves with an on-site nuke and plead to the Foundation to seal up the cave and never bring "it" outside of the cave. [[spoiler:What they found was a suicide message recorded by an unknown Foundation agent from the dead world. In his world, he was sent through the same portal to a different alternate universe where everything had died. When he returned to his own universe, somehow the death phenomenon followed him through and instantly killed everything in his universe. He saw all the plants around him instantly shrivel and die, and all the birds and animals instantly drop to the ground where they were. He concluded that there was [[NothingIsScarier "something"]] in that cave that followed him out and brought death to his own universe. It needed him to go into the dead world and bring it back to his own so it can kill his world too. His message tells anyone listening to it that they are now "Death" too. The exploration team committed suicide to prevent themselves from bringing Death to their original world, and the best the Foundation could do was seal up the cave with concrete and hope to high heaven that whatever killed those other universes doesn't find another way into ours.]]
97* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2950 SCP-2950 ("Just A Chair")]] is, as its name states, just an anomalous chair. [[spoiler:Not entirely true. It is an entity whose properties are based on the majority's definition of it. Originally, "somebody" gave the Foundation a source defining it as an eldritch abomination, which quickly caused things to spiral out of control. The Foundation eventually managed to turn things around after discussing with the Serpent's Hand, realizing the true nature of SCP-2950, and erased everyone's awareness of SCP-2950 and redefine it as an anomalous chair. In the aftermath of the incident, the Foundation and the Serpent's Hand agreed that only a single person from both sides are allowed to know about the truth of the chair at one time. This does a whole lot to illustrate how much of a threat it is because [[EnemyMine the Foundation and the Serpent's Hand almost never cooperate with each other on anything]]. [[ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve Everybody else has been tricked into thinking that it is just a boring old chair, and as long as they continue to believe that]], [[ForcedTransformation it will be trapped in that form.]] The scariest thing is, somebody intentionally tried to spread the belief that 2950 was a world destroying abomination and is still out there.]]
98* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2975 SCP-2975 ("Another Sun")]]. The White Sun is an extremely powerful and incomprehensible being that is worshipped by the ApocalypseCult The Order of the White Sun. The Order attempts to bring about the end of the world by summoning the White Sun to Earth, but is stopped by the Foundation. The attempted summoning caused multiple shifts in reality such that the agents who stopped it have inconsistent memories about just what happened, which is represented by the story being told in a branching format.
99* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2976 SCP-2976 ("Hall of the Last King")]]. When the victims of SCP-2976 reach Stage 5 they summon the Last King inside the Hall. The Last King appears as a humanoid figure silhouetted by a bright light. When he arrives everything in the nearby area (both organic and inorganic) is destroyed or removed, except for the walls.
100* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2992 SCP-2992 ("Everything Flows Towards Cadence")]] is a man who was [[MindRape mind raped]] by an EldritchAbomination obsessed with music. He spreads a mental virus that infects you if you listen to music suggested to you by an infected person. [[spoiler:It is implied that the mental virus is the eldritch abomination itself infecting your mind, and it is already extremely widespread and far more contagious than just spreading through listening to the infected's suggested music.]] Even more disturbing, the symptoms of infection sound a lot like [[spoiler:having a song stuck in your head, meaning that YOU could be infected already.]]

103[[folder: Series IV (SCP-3000 - SCP-3999)]]
104* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3000 SCP-3000 ("Anantashesha")]] is a gigantic eel (as in, several hundred ''miles'' in length, though its body is curled up) located underwater in the Bay of Bengal. [[HumanResources It eats exclusively humans]], and when it does so it produces chemicals which [[LaserGuidedAmnesia erase or otherwise tamper with the memories of those exposed to it]] (these chemicals apparently form the base of most of the modern Foundation's amnestics). Looking at the creature also gradually produces the same effects; it's apparently powerful enough that [[spoiler:one researcher became entirely convinced that another researcher's wife was actually his own, to the point that finding evidence to the contrary caused him to GoMadFromTheRevelation and [[DrivenToSuicide feed himself to the eel]]]]. It gets worse: [[spoiler:as its name suggests, the creature may or may not be the snake god [[Myth/HinduMythology Anantashesha]] upon which Vishnu and all of creation rest. This would also make the eel the only thing which will survive [[TimeAbyss the ultimate end of time]].]]
105* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3004 SCP-3004 ("Imago")]] is a [[BigCreepyCrawlies cicada god]] from another dimension [[GodsNeedPrayerBadly that feeds on faith]]. It was once worshiped by a druidic cult, but because its worshipers converted to Christianity, it became convinced that it is the Christian god. It warps Christianity into a disturbing ReligionOfEvil involving lots of BodyHorror and cicadas. It is starting to break into our dimension, and the Foundation's contingency plan for dealing with the thing is to erase Christianity from the historical record in order to starve it. According to an agent of the Foundation who communicated with it, it isn't actually evil, it is an AlmightyIdiot that doesn't understand metaphors or mortality, and so [[ObliviouslyEvil doesn't comprehend the harm it is causing]].
106* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3007 SCP-3007]] features a world that humans can only visit through astral projection. The world features a terribly malformed city and countless horrifically mutated corpses. Through paintings found throughout the city, we learn that it was built by a people and their benevolent god (rendered in blue). The people went beyond their world, exploring different planets. When they returned, they brought something back with them: a sapient infohazard (rendered in [[GreaterScopeVillain red]]) that caused the previously mentioned destruction. Only a small portion of the people survived, implied to be humanity's ancestors, while the benevolent god held the infohazard back. But now the artist who killed god is coming to earth...
107* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3125 SCP-3125 ("The Escapee")]] is a part of the greater narrative for the [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/antimemetics-division-hub Antimemetics Division]] series, and very much an Eldritch Abomination in meme form. SCP-3125 is an extremely powerful, massive, and aggressive complex of extradimensional memes slowly incurring into our reality. Learning about its contents will cause you to lose interest in all other ideas, reducing you to a shell that exists only to think about SCP-3125, which also has the effect of making the victim unrecognizable as a human despite undergoing no outside change. It also has a self-defense layer, where any observer who learns about its shape allows it to perceive the observer, allowing it to obliterate them (and anybody related to them who have similar thoughts and ideas), [[RetGone leaving behind giant gaping holes of information]]. It is so pervasive and hostile it had single-handedly reduced the number of antimemetic research organizations worldwide from over 400 to 1, the sole survivor being Foundation's Antimemetic Division, and even that had its faculty reduced from over four thousand to ninety, all due to them eventually stumbling on SCP-3125. It hadn't fully emerged into our reality yet, but when it does, the Foundation believes it will wipe out all human thought overnight. The Foundation's "containment" is to set up a telepathically shielded chamber where it cannot get in so they can ''think about it'' and ways to get rid of it without getting annihilated. They also have a [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/case-colourless-green secret underground chamber]] telepathically shielded in the same way that might get rid of it, but whether or not it will work is uncertain. [[spoiler:[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/your-last-first-day It does not]]. It's nothing more than just a memetic failsafe (described as a NuclearOption for memes) to clean the Site from being contaminated with SCP-3125, unable to even dent SCP-3125. SCP-3125 will eventually incur into reality, and there's nothing the Foundation can do about it.]]
108** In [[DependingOnTheWriter one version]] [[spoiler:the last surviving D-Class (who's also the last human in the universe at that point) [[BittersweetEnding avenges humanity]] by [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu destroying it]]. To do this, he needs to [[SummonBiggerFish summon]] ''another'' EldritchAbomination, the aforementioned SCP-2747, [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/fifthdation to fight 3125]].]]
109* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3513 SCP-3513 ("The Brain That Ate Itself")]] is a brain eating creature that can manifest its mouths inside of the heads of living things that enter a certain area. It is implied that the creature is located deep inside the earth.
110* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3883 SCP-3883 ("Dildos Have Dreams Too")]] is not an eldritch abomination, but [[IJustWantToBeBadass it really wishes it could be one.]]
111* The Pattern Screamers are a [[GreaterScopeVillain mysterious threat mentioned or referenced in a large number of other SCP documents]] and in fact several of the other abominations on this page may be pattern screamers or at least related to them. What the Pattern Screamers are, [[UnreliableCanon or at least one interpretation of what they are]], was finally revealed in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3930 SCP-3930 ("The Pattern Screamer")]]. [[spoiler:It turns out that [[MindScrew the Pattern Screamers do not exist, but are sentient and hate us for existing]]. They are nonbeings that can be perceived in absolute nothingness. When the human mind tries to [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm comprehend absolute nothingness]] the brain searches for patterns where there are none and will perceive something where there is nothing, and when too many people are aware of the nothingness and the fact that is it affected by perception, the nothingness begins screaming. They can ''become'' fully existent, but the transition is painful and only one Pattern Screamer, a [=VTuber=] calling herself Paty (a.k.a. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-6930 SCP-6930]]), is known to have done so.]]

115* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4002 SCP-4002 ("The Black Moon Howls From Beyond The Edge Of Time")]] refers to a deal made with one in ancient times. [[spoiler:It turns out that ''humanity itself'' was once anomalous, but a Sumerian king named [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etana Etana]] struck a deal with a godlike entity known as "the King" (which may or may not be [[GeniusLoci the Black Moon itself]]): in exchange for an artifact or power that would allow Etana to conceive a child, the vast majority of the anomalous would be forced outside of mainline reality. [[TheMagicComesBack The rise in SCP entities in the present day is a sign that the deal is about to expire]].]]
116* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4007 SCP-4007 ("Kagemusha")]] is mostly concerned with a group of five anomalous Japanese soldiers from World War II. [[spoiler:However, it turns out that the soldiers are merely acting as containment for an immense... ''something'' off the coast of Vietnam, with their actions being done to maintain a gigantic pentagon-shaped ritual shape. Whatever the entity is, it apparently destroyed an entire squadron of Japanese ships in a way that even the Foundation admits they've never seen before. We never find out exactly what is inside the pentagram, other than the fact that it is apparently massive (and massively powerful), and that one of the SCP-4007 members refers to it with male pronouns.]]
117* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4840 SCP-4840 ("The Demon Lancelot and the Flying City of Audapaupadopolis")]] mentions multiple. Fitting, considering that it's essentially a creation myth for the SCP Universe. Of note are the carvings within the city, depicting (among many others) the Scarlet King, MEKHANE and Yaldabaoth. The Demon Lancelot himself is rather downplayed, as it's merely a man transformed into a huge monster after making a deal with one of these. Although he is only visible on heat-seeking cameras and, strangely, his corpse has not cooled, despite being dead for hundreds of thousands of years.
118* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4947 SCP-4947 ("The Fault and the Fistula")]] is a [[BigCreepyCrawlies gargantuan worm]] located in the Finnish wilderness which has carved an enormous (as in, ''thousands'' of square kilometers) series of fault lines through its constant burrowing. The fault itself is inherently detrimental to its surroundings, punching holes in matter and integrating buildings into a confusing, non-euclidean maze. [[spoiler:[[PaintingTheMedium Even the concept of SCP-4947 isn't safe]], being a potent, slow-acting antimeme that's implied to have given a past researcher dementia.]]
119* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4971 SCP-4971 ("Rituals")]] is a space-time anomaly that was brought into an abandoned mall after an eco-terrorist occultist group performed a massive HumanSacrifice ritual inside it. Residing within SCP-4971 is SCP-4971-▽, a.k.a. The One Who Knows Silence In The Earth. It looks like a massive deer with a floating, vibrating, and glowing white crest in the place of its head and neck, and has many godlike and incomprehensible powers. As revealed by a modern-day witch, SCP-4971-▽ is a God of Sacrifice, mistakenly believed to be a God of Nature by its summoners. The Foundation currently has no ability to stop it; it will disappear if all of humanity stops making rituals and sacrifices, and its doorway to the world outside can be shut down if ''all'' of humanity is sacrificed, both of which are impossible. Ominously, the witch states that if it enters the world outside, it will start "performing its own rituals", and it "won't be satisfied by hooves and ash".

[[spoiler:Hidden text at the bottom of the page and a messaged encoded into the image at the bottom of the page implies that the Foundation discovered something horrible lurking inside of the minds of all humanity. Something so awful that they decided that humanity needed to be destroyed to stop it. And the weird being resembling a human but stretched into a giant by space being distorted around it, and with holes in reality for wings was a manifestation of it.]]
126* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5242 SCP-INTEGER]] (SCP-5242) is a {{Mind Screw}}y SCP article involving an anomaly that's causing confusing retroactive nomenclative changes. If one manages to untangle the mind screw, it is revealed that [[spoiler:SCP-INTEGER is a powerful and intelligent entity residing within '''[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/taboo the Fae's nameless forest]]''' (WordOfGod states that SCP-INTEGER is actually its ''ruler'') with immense power over names. This entity is nameless and [[TheScottishTrope never supposed to be named]], and when a Foundation Doctor deduced its existence and gave it a name (LOGICIAN), the entity became enraged and effectively sets a curse on the Foundation, making it so that anybody who gives it new names ("incorrect names") have their own names [[TakeAwayTheirName retroactively taken away]], and bestowed with new and confusing "simplified" names; the INQUIRY log (interview log) in the article shows a Doctor retroactively losing his name and becoming "[[YouAreNumberSix SCIENTIST-LETTER]]" when he accidentally called SCP-INTEGER an "issue". The name changes are so powerful that they become ''universal facts'' (a.k.a. semiohazard), and the interviewer has, is, and will always be named SCIENTIST-LETTER. This entity is the one that is inserting red emboldened footnotes in the SCP-INTEGER document, and the writer of the poem at the end. Its nature is never fully described, and only obliquely referenced as a complex of semiohazards, but it is clearly immensely powerful.]]
127* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5935 SCP-5935-1]] is an ancient being buried in the darkest reaches of '''[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/taboo the land of the nameless folk]]'''. It is an ancient god that was the first name to exist in the world, its name had the power to bestow names, and it existed as a conceptual question seeking an answer. However, when most things in the world became named, its power diminished, and it was eventually buried and forgotten, becoming a vengeful being. When a Foundation Overseer entered the forest trying to revive his dead son, he ended up encountering it and [[DealWithTheDevil made a deal with it]], giving it his son's name, Jacob, allowing it to assume Jacob's form and "revive" Jacob. After leaving the forest, "Jacob" soon revealed its malicious intents and its immense powers: it can perfectly "name-shift" (identity shift) into anyone, and it seeks to kill all humans and steal all humans' names, and reunite all the world under its one name again. The real name of the entity, as confirmed by WordOfGod, is the question [[spoiler:"Who?"]]

It's so alien that nobody can even describe it, and just being in its presence is enough to overwhelm human beings with dread and terror... and it's awake and active in Florida. [[spoiler:Except it's not actually an EldritchAbomination at all, but a ParodySue of one: SCP-7606 is a twenty-year-old sorcerer using a magic ritual to make himself appear like a Lovecraftian horror in the perceptions of anyone seeing him or mentioning him. Unfortunately, he's not invincible - as he discovers when a pissed Florida Man shoots him dead mid-reign of terror.]]

141* The Church of the Broken God worships the eponymous Broken God, a divine entity that seems like a [[MechanicalAbomination mechanical version of this trope]]; many destructive mechanical SCP objects are believed by the Church to be [[PiecesOfGod pieces of their god.]] However, whether or not the Broken God is really an abomination is [[ZigZaggingTrope zig-zagged]], as some modern stories [[spoiler:heavily imply the Broken God was GoodAllAlong and is basically the setting's CrystalDragonJesus. The "Broken God" from [=TwistedGears/djkaktus=]'s SCP-001 proposal however (see above) is definitely an abomination and not a benevolent god.]]
142* Opposing the Broken God is Yaldabaoth, the God of Flesh, and its greatest earthly servant, the Grand Karcist Ion, both of whom are ''definitely'' abominable. A wide assortment of fleshcrafting and reality-bending horrors are within their capabilities, the most well-known of being the abomination plague of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-610 SCP-610.]] Ion was once a half-Daevite slave, but thanks to Yaldabaoth's "blessings", he has long since become [[HumanoidAbomination something far worse]].
143* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-561991 According to this Thread]], which is a place for WordOfGod to reveal secrets about [=SCPs=] not found in their article (which may spoil a lot of them, take warning), the following [=SCPs=] either are or were caused by Eldritch Abominations:
144** [[spoiler:[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1382 SCP-1382]]]] This is the result of an encounter with one.
145** [[spoiler:[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1606 SCP-1606]]]] It is caused by a being that is basically a personification of memory loss that is trying to break into our world [[spoiler:and currently is possessing the old man.]]
146** [[spoiler:[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1175 SCP-1175]]]] It is a creature, and the guard drones it created to protect itself, that got stuck in our world which is unpleasant to it because of its AlienGeometries being confined by our world and it wants to go home. [[spoiler:It is drilling into the ground to gather thermal energy to escape. It eats the people that its guards kill to hide the evidence, not out of hunger. The guards destroy new structures because they are distracting to it. It is submissive to the sculpture's creator because it perceives him as the ruler of the land it is in.]]
147** [[spoiler:[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-121 SCP-121]]]] It is invisible and stuck between dimensions in the sky over the town, unable to move, [[spoiler:and is trying to reproduce.]]
148** [[spoiler:[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1178 SCP-1178]]]] This is the result of an attempt to kill one, resulting in a being that is a amalgamation of the entity, the people that tried to kill it, and the weapon that they used.
149* Foundation Tale [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1926-r SCP-1926-R]]. SCP-1926-R is [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos R'lyeh]] and SCP-1926-1 is Cthulhu. [[spoiler:Although the article claims that it is only a prank, the writer of the article has revealed that this is a lie.]]
150* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-010-j SCP-010-J ("WHAT KETER I DON'T SEE ANY KETER")]] [[UnreliableNarrator is completely harmless, is not]] a BrownNote, [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial and is definitely not made of black holes.]]
151* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1d6-j SCP-1D6-J ("Gygax's Folly")]] Roll a six sided dice to decide what it is. Several of the possible results can be this.
152* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2006-j SCP-2006-J ("Metamorphic Eldritch Entity")]] is a [[BrownNote mind shattering]] horror obsessed with MagicalGirlWarrior anime.
153* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2600-cu SCP-2600-CU ("The Little Thing")]] is a disgusting BlobMonster that compels people to act like it is the cutest thing ever and [[MindRape they are fully aware of this.]] It is mind controlling the Foundation into finding it a mate so that it can conquer the planet.
154* Uninspired and poor uses of this trope are {{Deconstructed}} and PlayedForLaughs in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/eldritch-application Eldritch Application]], in which WebOriginal/{{Zalgo}}'s application to become an SCP is rejected because its eldritch abomination characteristics are deemed too boring for the Foundation's tastes.
155* At the first glance, the tale [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-000 SCP-000]] seems like an in-universe glitch page for a broken spot in the Foundation database. [[spoiler:Highlighting the blank space below the article reveals a story told by an unknown entity. He describes encountering {{Eldritch Abomination}}s as he wanders through a world of nothingness with no memory of his past, and depending on how you interpret the story, he may also be one who was imprisoned by the Foundation. Another possible theory is that the narrator is really an AI trapped in the Foundation's database]].
156** This tale has a sequel, [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-s SCP-S]], which aside from the creepy image at the top, seems to just be a test page written by a snarky technical researcher. [[spoiler:This page also had hidden text, but hidden in a different way. The hidden text is made up of hateful messages from an unknown being (seemingly one of the above-mentioned Pattern Screamers) trying to let us know that it exists.]]
157* Whatever is in the [[https://wanderers-library.wikidot.com/the-cave-of-red-flies Cave of Red Flies]] from Website/TheWanderersLibrary (an SCP Foundation Spin Off). “It had smooth red skin like that of a frog, had the body of a bare man, legs like those of an eagle, and four crimson-feathered wings. I could not see his head or face, or more likely my sanity forbids me from remembering. But I remember those two great eyes, impossibly large, shining with an intelligence like laughing fire”. That's hardly the only example on the site.
158* [[https://wanderers-library.wikidot.com/thearchivistslog The Wanderer's Library's groups of interest page]] reveals that the Hanged King, which the Foundation knows about only through [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-701 SCP-701]] (a madness and anomaly inducing play with similarities to Macbeth and Hamlet) is one of these. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2264 SCP-2264]] shows that there is far more to the Hanged King than what we know about...
159* The Scarlet King, born Khahrahk, is a GodOfEvil who serves as not only [[SatanicArchetype the SCP Multiverse's version of the Devil]], but also its GreaterScopeVillain. He is known by many names such as the [[IHaveManyNames King of the Darkness Below, Lord of the Throne of Despair, Defiler of Worlds, Rapist King or simply just Satan or Harak]]. He was born as the smallest of his siblings during the creation of the Tree of Knowledge in which he came to the conclusion that [[StrawNihilist existence itself is too painful]] and decided he would destroy existence, and devoured his siblings to become more powerful. He vowed to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the Tree, the Creator and Creation]], and consumed or subjugated all the other gods within his path, then took the goddess Sanna and raped her, giving birth to his seven daughters, SCP-231-1 to 7, who he impregnated with seven other abominations called the Leviathans. The Foundation has captured and neutralized six of the brides but the seventh still remained, however it appears that the Foundation is actually playing right into the Scarlet King's hands.
160** One popular interpretation suggests that [[CompleteImmortality SCP-682]] is one of the Leviathans, the son of SCP-231-4 and the Scarlet King, and is actually the ''weakest'' of his siblings.
161** According to one story (which not everyone accepts as canon), SCP-231-7 already has given birth and the result was SCP-999. The Foundation purposefully allowed SCP-231-7 to give birth when they discovered evidence that her child was actually destined to be a savior instead of a destroyer and they had been tricked into suppressing its birth. Unlike his siblings, SCP-999 is a benevolent friendly BlobMonster who smells of peanut butter and shows dog-like affection towards humans, even towards his elder brother SCP-682. SCP-999 is believed to be the only thing stopping the Scarlet King from destroying existence.
