Item #: SCP-███

Object Class: Thaumiel

Special Containment Procedures: The entrance to SCP-███ has been bricked up. SCP-███ is to be repaired if it becomes so weathered that entry or sight of the interior is possible. Only Pataphysics Department personnel of Level 3 and above are to know of SCP-███'s existence.

Description: SCP-███ is a large mausoleum located in Site-██'s on-site cemetery. The building is constructed from severely weathered stone and bears no external distinguishing features. Its only access point is a rusted iron gate at the center of one wall. When the object was first discovered, a tarnished brass plaque emblazoned with the words "Department of Abnormalities" was affixed to this gate.

It is not known when SCP-███ was constructed, or by whom.

Beyond the entrance gate, a hallway extends for a long distance before opening into a larger room. There are numerous small burial chambers along both sides of the hallway, each behind a stone door. Some of these chambers contain undecorated stone sarcophagi.

Each door is engraved with a name or other moniker that presumably describes the contents of the room behind it or the sarcophagus within. These labels and the contents of the associated rooms are as follows:

Door Engraving Contents Notes
“The Man of War” Sarcophagus containing a human skeleton. The floor of the chamber is littered with shards of severely rusted steel.
“Hell” A sinkhole has seemingly opened beneath this chamber. Its horizontal dimensions are approximately those of the burial chamber, but its depth is unknown. An inscription is visible on the interior wall of the sinkhole several meters down, but it is illegible at that distance and angle.
[illegible due to damage] Room is entirely empty. Area smells faintly of fish.
“The Devil Machine” A sarcophagus containing a complex, heavily rusted clockwork device of unknown function. Rust has rendered all components immobile.
“Promethean Alloy” A stack of 120 ingots of an unidentified gray-green metal. Ingots were heavily tarnished.
“Lilith” Sarcophagus containing the remains of an adult human female wearing the standard uniform for humanoid SCP objects. Bone growths resembling vestigial wings extend from the shoulder blades. Tongue was removed before death.
“Jack” Sarcophagus containing the remains of an adult human male wearing casual clothing. Individual was castrated before death. A heart shape surrounding the letter "J" has been carved on the outside of the sarcophagus's lid.
“PSR B0531+21”1 unknown Door cannot be opened.
"Debra Salazar" Sarcophagus encased in lead. Has not been opened, due to high radiation levels in its vicinity. The phrase "OUR NAMES AND MEMORIES SHALL NOT BE OBLITERATED" is carved on the back wall.
“Epon” Sarcophagus containing the remains of an adolescent human female. Length of corpse's hair nearly exceeded its height. Nude. A rosary is clutched in one of the corpse's hands.
“Mr. Brass” Sarcophagus containing a large assortment of mechanical parts, consisting mostly of brass. Parts appear to be the components of a humanoid automaton. Reassembly is impossible due to extensive damage and degradation.
“Things Lost” Room is empty. There is a small hole in the rear wall. It has been plugged with concrete.
“Job 10:10”2 Empty sarcophagus. The crypt door and sarcophagus were both open when discovered.
"Chaos" The room is completely filled by a complex, nonfunctional machine of uncertain purpose. The mangled remains of a person in black and red clothing have been forced into the machinery.
"No More" An electrical outlet cover is affixed to the rear wall at eye level, slightly off-center. A broken night light shaped like a stylized shooting star is plugged into it. There is no power to the outlet; there is only a shallow, empty space behind the cover.
"Nostalgia" A large pile of broken musical instruments, torn sheet music, and muddy marching band uniforms. The words "I remember" have been scratched onto the back wall. Two additional lines of text have been damaged beyond legibility.
"Mr. Soap" Sarcophagus containing the waterlogged remains of a human male. The corpse and the interior of the sarcophagus are coated in a thick layer of soap scum.
“The Full Man” Sarcophagus containing the remains of an emaciated man with a greatly distended abdomen. Forensic examination of the abdomen revealed [DATA LOST]

The room at the end of the hallway is square, roughly 7 meters on each side. A large stone tomb stands at the center of the room. On the top of the tomb, the following has been engraved:

A memorial for the remembered
atop a grave of the forgotten.

All attempts to access or view the tomb's interior have failed.
