Item #: SCP-087
Object Class: Euclid
Description: SCP-087 is located on the campus of [REDACTED] and is an unlit platform stairwell with 13 steps each, descending at a 38-degree angle.
Between the floors is a semi-circular platform with a diameter of about 3 meters, which rotates 180 degrees in the descending direction of each platform.
Since SCP-087's design limits visibility to around 1.5 steps, and there are no lights or windows inside, any subject exploring SCP-087 must carry a light source.
Light sources above 75 watts have proven to be less effective, as SCP-087 appears to absorb too much light.
Reports and audio recordings of test subjects confirm the presence of distressed cries, presumably emanating from children between the ages of █ and ██.
The source of the cry for help is estimated to be located 200 meters below the first platform, however, any attempt to descend the stairs failed to bring the subject any closer to the source.
The depths calculated from the deepest expedition far exceeded the structural depths possible for this architectural and geological environment.
As of now, it has not been known whether SCP-087 has an end.
SCP-087 has so far recorded 4 D-class exploration videos, each of which has encountered SCP-087-1, which is a face without pupils, nostrils and mouth.
The nature of SCP-087-1 is completely unknown, but it has been determined that it is not the source of the cry for help.
Explorers have shown intense fear and apprehension when confronted with SCP-087-1, but it is difficult to determine whether this feeling is anomalous or merely a natural reaction.
appendix:
In the two weeks following the conclusion of Expedition IV, several staff and students from the [REDACTED] University reported hearing knocks on the door of SCP-087 at a frequency of 1-2 seconds per second.
After filling the door leading to SCP-087 with 6 cm thick industrial foam, all reports of knocks on the door have been discontinued.
Special Containment Procedures: The porch leading to SCP-087 is constructed of reinforced steel plate with an electronically controlled locking mechanism, the entrance has been disguised as a cleaning room consistent with the design of the building, the locking mechanism on the door handle is to remain locked unless Simultaneously apply ██ volts and turn key counterclockwise. The door is lined with 6 cm thick industrial foam padding.
As a result of the last exploration, any personnel are now prohibited from entering SCP-087.
...
In the SCP Foundation, SCP-087 can be said to be famous, and like SCP682, it belongs to one of the Foundation's heritage items.
To put it simply, it is a bottomless stairwell with no lights, and the cry of a child for help can be heard below.
Each time explorers encounter SCP-087-1 - a face without pupils, nostrils and mouth, resembling a ghost.
Let's just say, SCP-087 fits all the elements of a horror movie.
The Foundation has explored it 4 times, the deepest one has reached 2 kilometers underground, but still has not reached its bottom.
The last time, the explorers saw a door and could confirm that the cry for help came from behind that door.
Then, there is no then.
After the explorer lost contact, the SCP Foundation completely blocked the entrance to 087.
The Foundation thought that it would gradually become a safe-level project, but it did not expect that after many years, 087 became active again.
The cause of the incident was that a case occurred on the campus of [DATA EXPUNGED]. Four students disappeared for no reason after their evening self-study and cleaning the classroom. The school and the police searched for many days, and finally found a clue at the entrance of 087.
— on the old iron door,
The facial contours of several students gradually became clearer and their expressions were painful. It was as if someone was inside, pressing their faces hard against the iron gate.
For a time, people were panicked, and the campus was forced to suspend classes.
The police wanted to forcibly break into the door, and the SCP dispatched agents immediately passed the news to the headquarters. Since Site 14 was the closest to the [DATA EXPUNGED] school, the task was assigned to Yang Xue and the others.
Yang Xue said: "There is danger under SCP087. If it weren't for a few students inside, the Foundation would not agree to re-explore. The previous operations of D-class personnel ended in failure, so this time we plan to send an mtf team. The team goes down, uncle hopes you can come to the scene to guide."
Regarding SCP087, Zhang Jue doesn't know much more than the Foundation, but he has the title of a consultant now, so it's not easy to refuse.
Zhang Jue nodded and recalled the relevant information carefully.
Half an hour later, the two took the Foundation's special vehicle to the [DATA EXPUNGED] school.
The entrance to 087 is disguised as a dilapidated cleaning room, on the ground floor.
When Zhang Jue and Yang Xue arrived, a team of heavily armed soldiers was already waiting outside the door.
A middle-aged man was instructing them: "To cooperate with the work of the researchers, no one is allowed to move, and whoever dares to violate the order, I will shoot him!"
Seeing Yang Xue coming, he let the team rest in place and greeted him: "Xue'er, you are here." Noticing the strange man next to Yang Xue, he frowned slightly: "This is—"
Yang Xue introduced: "His name is Zhang Jue. He is a special consultant recently hired by the foundation and is currently working at site14."
Then she said to Zhang Jue: "This is one of the CN Region Mobile Task Forces, the captain of 'Hongying', Guan Peng."
Guan Peng's left half of his face was severely burned, almost disfigured, looking very terrifying.
Zhang Jue knows, UU reading www.uukanshu. com can serve as the captain of mtf, by no means easy.
He stretched out his hand: "Hello Captain Guan."
Guan Peng looked at Zhang Jue without a trace, because he belonged to the CN District, he had heard about the special consultant hired by the foundation, but he did not expect the other party to be such a young man.
He and Zhang Jue have similar ideas. At this level, they will never make the mistake of judging people by their appearance.
He believed in the judgment of the top management of the foundation, since this young man can serve as a special adviser, he must have something special.
Guan Peng said: "It's not too late, since Xueer you guys are here, let's start."
Yang Xue looked at Zhang Jue. According to the regulations, Zhang Jue must nod this matter.
Zhang Jue looked at the closed iron gate and the four faces on the door.
The current situation is unknown, the only certainty is that the four students must be inside.
Without opening the door, no one knows what's going on inside.
Zhang Jue nodded: "Go ahead."
With a dull sound, the iron door that closed SCP087 was opened.
In order to prevent danger, the staff were almost fully armed, but after the door was opened, no strange things ran out of it.
The industrial foam filled in the door has long since disappeared, and there are only four bloody footprints extending down from the door.
Zhang Jue picked up the blood on the ground, rubbed it in his hand, and put it under his nose to sniff.
"It's not more than 24 hours. If you're lucky, there may be people alive."
"What do I do now?" Yang Xue asked.
Zhang Jue looked inside the stairwell.
"Captain Guan, please inform your team members, prepare food, ropes and lighting equipment, and start work."
