SCP-3020 "Depression" was written by Ihp. (did some more digging after recording the episode and found the author, you can find Ihp's author page here)

A memo is attached to the file.

An addendum recording has been requested for the additional edited articles that are attached to the primary article for 3020. Transcribed voicemail request below.

"Can you record the rest of this one? Somebody in, oh what's the name of that site... It's on the tip of my tongue, I swear I know it. Well, I'll remember it later, but anyway, they wanted the rest of this one done in audio by next week. I know you've got this! Thanks Bertram, talk to you soon."

which SCP is your favorite?

Okay, a lot of people asked me this, but I only have a few that I really really love, and I'll tell you why.

My "top three" are:

SCP 12051 (the "Halloween" thing)

SCP 1453 ("The Horror Behind You") (the horror of the human imagination, its connection to the real world, the way "horror" is "all around us" in a way that we sometimes fail to see)

… that's it. That's my "top three"

My problem with SCP 12051 and SCP 1453 is that they are just two examples in a big sea of examples, with very few things new to say and a lot of things I've heard before.

SCP 12051 is … like, okay, you've got this big spooky house. It's kind of spooky. So the monster gets loose. Then a bunch of people go inside. There are some people who have some bad experiences and some who don't, and you'd expect to see similar stuff. And then a month goes by and everyone comes out of the house and says they have no idea how it got in the house, it's just there and they don't know why.

Same deal with SCP 1453, which is basically The Terror, except done in the spooky mode. Which is not very interesting.

(It's true that there are people who really like The Terror, and it's always weird to me when they go on about how "weirdly moving" they found The Terror. It's just a horror novel? Okay. I don't really want to hear about what kind of things made you feel emotions you've never had before when reading The Road West, but I guess that book is "weirdly moving" in a way that other things are not. And when someone writes a really well-crafted piece of fiction about The Terror, it's because that genre exists and is supposed to exist, just like when people write fanfic of the horror genre and people read and enjoy those fics. And as for me, it doesn't seem weird or moving or anything for me to read a horror novel, because I have never been in the kind of situation it depicts.)

Anyway, that's why I don't put those two on my top three. And I have never liked any of the stories in the "SCP 1453 and its sequels" sub-universe, which is a whole other issue that's not particularly tied to these two. (I have liked "The Cuckoo" and "The Last Day of a Condemned Man.")

The only one I think has potential and has not been done to death is "SCP 1666, but everyone thinks the real SCP is an even bigger threat." It is totally possible to do something interesting and novel with "horror," and the idea that there are multiple types of horror, with some being much more horrifying than others, is novel and can still lead to some really fun stories.

But we do have "SCP 12051 and its sequels" which is like, I dunno, the same plot but in a different aesthetic, where it's "weird how this place is spooky," and it's all very derivative and it's not really saying anything interesting or new. There are other good stories of this type, and I've written one myself, but SCP-3020 is probably the best. (That's the one where the monster turns out to be a little kid.)
