SCP-3008 : The Infinite IKEA : Euclid : Extradimensional SCP

good afternoon everyone my name is dr. Miller and the SCP were going to be looking at today is SCP 3008 object class Euclid special containment procedures the retail part containing SCP 3008 has been purchased by the foundation and converted into sites all public roads leading to or passing by site have been redirected the entrance to SCP 3008 is to be monitored at all times and no one is to enter SCP 3008 outside of testing as permitted by the senior researcher humans exiting SCP 3008 are to be detained and then debriefed prior to the administration of amnestics dependent upon the situation of their stay in SCP 3008 a cover story may need to be generated prior to their release any other entities exiting a CP 3008 are to be terminated description SCP 3008 is a large retail unit previously owned by and branded as ikea a popular furniture retail chain a person entering a CP 3008 through the main entrance and then passing out of sight of the doors will find themselves translocated into SCP 3081 this displacement will typically go unnoticed as no change will occur from the perspective of the victim they will generally not become aware until they try to return to the entrance SCP 3081 is a space resembling the inside of an IKEA furniture store extending far beyond the limits of what could physically be contained within the dimensions of the retail unit current measurements indicate an area of at least 10 kilometers squared with no visible external terminators detected in any direction inconclusive results from the use of laser rangefinders has led to the speculation that the space may be infinite SCP 3081 is inhabited by an no number of civilians trapped within prior to containment gathered data suggests that they have formed a rudimentary civilization with NSC p3000 81 including the construction of settlements and fortifications for the purpose of defending against SCP 3082 SCP 3008 - are humanoid entities that exist within SCP 3081 while superficially resembling humans they possess exaggerated and inconsistent bodily proportions often described as being too short or too tall they possess no facial features and in all observed cases where a yellow shirt and blue trousers consistent with the IKEA employee uniform SCP 3081 has a rudimentary day/night cycle determined by the overhead lighting within the space activating and deactivating at times consistent with the opening and closing times of the original retail store during the night instances of scp-3467 once inside using any other door besides the main entrance to enter the structure or breaking through the walls of the retail unit leads into the non-anomalous interior of the original store since containment began 14 individuals have managed to exit SCP 3008 following extensive debriefing all individuals have met at menace mystics and released incident 3008 one at zero 37 hours on two thousand a human male exited SCP 3008 followed 10 seconds later by an instance of scp-3467 [Music] for more details the man was carrying an Ikea branded journal seeming to document his time in SCP 3081 transcribed below verbatim so i'm writing mr. document what I can only assume is my sudden descent into insanity I can't possibly be that bad a navigator and yet as I write this I've been trapped in Ikea for two days I haven't seen another person in the entire time I've been here I thought it was a prank at first turn the place into a maze get all the people out and see how long it takes me to get lost then everyone has a good old laugh I realized that wasn't the case when I tried to backtrack everything had changed so I ended up lost instead the exit it was just row after row of bookcases so I'm trapped in an Ikea sounds like the setup for a bad joke the lights went out at 10 p.m. nearly giving me a heart attack that loud electrical thunk sound and then pitch blackness place is full of beds though and my phone has a torch on it but no damn signal so I found a bed and went to sleep spent most of the day trying to find my way out with no luck did find a restaurant serving those meatballs though so at least I won't starve that's probably the punch to that joke anyway they were still warm and fresh but I haven't seen anyone around who could have cooked them made my way back to the beds before the lights come out again since it's to dr. search with him off it's 9:10 a.m. now the lights came back on a little while ago I'm sure I've searched the entire area where I came in now and the exit obviously isn't here so I'm gonna pick it direction and hope for the best day three of my magical IKEA mystery adventure if I wasn't sure that there was something seriously weird about this place before I am now walk for three hours in a more or less straight line in certain IKEA joke here before I came across the ladder next to one of those huge stock shelves they have here climbed up to get my bearings and looks like this place just stretches on forever like that scene from The Lion King except instead of trees and grass it was all shelves and tables and crap I did see a person moving not too far away though so I headed over thought it was a staff member at first it was wearing a uniform well maybe it was maybe freakish seven-foot-tall monsters with long arms short legs and no faces are just the kinds of thing that they want working at a super IKEA damn thing completely ignored me though and with no eyes or ears I can't even be sure it knew I was there thought about shoving it or something to get its attention but it's hands were big enough to crush a watermelon so I decided against it it just kept moving and I eventually lost sight of it so I decided to carry on the way I was going anyway no comfy bed for me tonight looks like I've entered the improbably hard and pointy table section of the store guess I'll have to make do with some bunched up tablecloths phone battery died during the day - didn't work anyway but I feel like I've just lost some vital lifeline you ever seen one of those cartoons where they're going through doors in a hallway and they just pop out of another door in the same hallway that's how I feel right now I've seen nothing but the same identical bookshelf for two days now just row after row after row of them I mean come on I love books just as much as the next guy but this is excessive I'm obviously still moving forwards though I can see the signs hanging overhead passing by too bad none of them say exit not sure who I was addressing that question to let's just say it was practice for the autobiography I'm gonna write when I get out of here I'll call it my perfectly normal trip to a regular old IKEA if I ever get out here finally found some other people yeah turns out I'm not the only poor bastard trapped in here lucky for me I guess my sixth night here two of those staff things came at me in the dark different from the first one I saw but still messed up heard them coming they were saying that the store was closed and I had to leave the building all nice and polite like I'm not sure which part of that was weirder that they didn't have mouths or that they were apparently trying to kill me while they were saying it came at me like rabid dogs so I'll egged it sprinting through IKEA in the dark like a [ __ ] madman I saw it when I cleared another stand in front of those giant stock shelves all lit up with torches and floodlights they've built the whole town here got a massive wall built out of shelves and beds and tables and whatever else I swear to god it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen anyway I guess they saw me coming or they heard my manly bellows of fear because they had a gate open and two people were there waving me in heard the staff thing slam into the gate behind me after it closed still politely informing us that the store was now closed they wondered off eventually though they call the town exchange because that's what's on the sign hanging from the ceiling directly above it exchange in returns all led up against the night using lights they found and plugged into the power lines and there are beds and food and people over 50 wonderful people with regular-sized limbs and a full set of facial features it's now my seventh night here and the first one not spent in darkness a full week living in Ikea it's probably a TV show and that's somewhere now that I'm around other people I'm starting to feel more normal hmm maybe normal isn't the word but after a week with only the sound of my own footsteps for company I was becoming increasingly sure that I just got nuts that I was tied up in some padded room somewhere banging my head against the wall but no I feel quite sane now thank you very much apparently there are other towns out there some with more people some with less I found that fairly mind-boggling how can that many people go missing with no one noticing surely someone would have noticed that everyone who goes to Ikea seems to vanish or maybe it's not everyone maybe we're just the lucky ones the people here just call those staff monster sings the staff apparently they're fine during the day minding their own business walking the aisles as soon as the lights go out they go for bonkers so during the day people go out to find food water and whatever else they need apparently there are restaurants and shops around that get randomly restocked no one knows how maybe the staff do it apparently they aren't very good at their jobs though because the restocking sometimes takes a while which means the food needs to be rationed maybe if they weren't so busy chasing people around in the dark they get more done anyway when night comes the staff go nuts and everyone holds up inside the walls apparently it's the same everywhere in this place wherever this place is the your IKEA from once all other IKEA is sprang or maybe we're all still just in the regular IKEA and this is all some fever dream brought on by a mind-numbing boredom who knows been here for ten days now most of the people I asked said they stopped keeping track a long time ago and one guy Chris said he'd been here for years years apparently there are rumors of people who do manage to get out the people who see the exit only to have it vanish before their very eyes I get the feeling not everyone believes that than I do explains how he got stuck in here in the first place sort of and I mean come on staff monsters row after row of high-quality Swedish furniture I don't know why they would find a disappearing door so hard to believe it anyway I went down scavenging for food in a nearby shop with Sandra and Jerry today once you learn the landmarks of this place it's not so hard to navigate the overhead signs help a lot but there are others not too far in the distance a huge section of those giant stock shelves is collapsed against each other and way off in the East we all assume it's rubies anyway apparently IKEA doesn't sell compasses it's some kind of tower that looks like it's made of wood reaches all the way up to the ceiling maybe they were trying to break out through the roof and lights up at night so there must be people there but apparently it's a few days walk which means it must be miles away so no one here really knows for sure apparently I got incredibly lucky sleeping on the open for a week without getting ripped to bits by the staff that's me lucky lucky lucky we found some food in the shop yes the staff restock the during the night which was nice of them there was a telephone on the wall so I figured I'd try it out there was a voice on the other end but they were just talking nonsense random words strung together with no real meaning you ever see a video of someone with aphasia kind of sounded like that didn't answer me when I spoke to them anyway Sandra says all the phones in here are the same asking the journal questions again I was thinking last night the ceiling on this place is pretty high and as far as anyone can tell it goes on forever shouldn't there be some kind of weather in here I'm sure I read about some NASA building that was so big it had its own weather patterns with clouds and stuff this place is definitely bigger than that but now that I think about it I'm pretty sure I've never felt so much as a temperature change in here I'll add it to the grand list weird [ __ ] the staff attacked the exchange last night must have been twenty or thirty of them all just asking us to leave the store calm as you like while trying to smash the walls down with their bare hands apparently this happens pretty regularly so everyone is prepared for it knives from the restaurants lawn mower blades made into hatchets a fire axe one guy will seem even made a functional crossbow anyway the walls have holes in them which I hadn't noticed before specifically so we can stop out at the staff when they attack took a couple of them down myself they don't seem to bleed which is weird but they go down as easy as a regular person when she starts ticking holes in them we had the hall the bodies away in the morning apparently the dead ones will attract more during the night so we had to get them away from exchange we have a couple of those trolley things they used to move big boxes around so we loaded them up and took them over to pick up apparently people just named everything in here after whatever sign is hanging overhead pickup was a grizzly there were hundreds maybe thousands of dead staff all piled up there was no smell which was a blessing apparently in addition to not bleeding these things don't rot either my curiosity got the better of me while we were unloading though so I took a look at one of the more cut-up ones they're just the skin or something that looks like skin all the way through no muscle no bone no organs are they even really alive in the first place certainly seem like they have bones when they're moving around pounding on the walls I'm sure I felt more resistance than just skin when the knife went in during the night maybe something happens to them when they die just one more thing on the ever increasing list of weird [ __ ] that goes on in here I guess something occurred to me after the staff attacked the other night every time you see a situation like this on TV or in a film like it's the end of the world or everyone is trapped on an island or whatever once groups like ours start to form but people always seem to turn on each other fighting for food or dominance or whatever else that hasn't happened here apparently people from other towns come by from time to time just to check in or occasionally trade if they're short on something but everything is always cordial friendly even maybe it's the threat of the staff or perhaps the constant restocking of supplies in the shops means there's nothing much to fight over maybe people are just better than they're generally given credit for that's a nice thought I think I'll go with that one a dozen people showed up at the gates this afternoon from a town called trolleys apparently the staff broke through the walls and tore the town apart during the night these 12 are the only survivors out of over a hundred we let them in obviously one more point in the human decency call later I asked if anyone knew how many of these towns were out there between us and the new folks we managed to come up with over 20 names 20 towns filled with people and who knows how many beyond that the motto for this place should be how is that even possible surely someone somewhere must be looking for the thousands of people that must be in here I've been here for a little over two months now not that much changes as it turns out a couple of new people showed up same stories the rest of us nice little trip to Ikea and suddenly they're trapped in Billy bookcases house of faceless weirdos the staff attacked the exchange once or twice a week we kill them and all off their bodies sometimes they hurt some of us first they killed the guy called Jared a couple of weeks back it was awful correctly turns out regular humans still bleed in here even if the staff belt we tried our best but none of us are doctors Jared was a good guy Ezra better we all do it occurred to me that a couple of days after that none of us were really looking for a way out of here I don't even know where we'd start one of those quadcopter things with a camera attached buzz passed exchanged today I thought it meant that someone was finally looking for us that help was on the way apparently it's not the first time this happened though same thing happened a few months ago and everyone is still here no idea if it's sauce it didn't stop if it did just kept flying until we could no longer see it note based on recovery time of the journal this entry appears to line up approximately with our first successful test piloting a drone in sinus EP 3081 analysis of footage shows a waltz settlement under a sign labeled exchange in returns attempts to relocate the settlement fail origin of previously cited drones is unknown I started talking to people about the stuff they miss from home during dinner today probably not the best idea I've ever had everyone seemed pretty down after a bunch of people here have families husbands and wives it's dogs Franklin apparently has a pet llama though I'm not sure I buy that but apparently some of the people here have some seriously odd gaps in their knowledge three of them had never heard of the International Space Station two of them seemed to think was the prime minister and one of them had apparently never heard of the Statue of Liberty I believed them too they seemed just as confused as the rest of us the more I thought about it though the more it started to explain a few things what if the reason no one is looking for all us missing people is because we haven't all come from the same place this is gonna sound weird maybe that should be the motto for this place but what if all the people here have come here from different dimensions realities whatever you call it I've seen enough TV shows to know the drill Sara comes from a place where there's no statue of liberty they didn't launch a space station where was CMAs from if everyone here came from different places even from ones that seem identical there'd be no huge missing persons panic no mass search we'd just be a blip a single missing person in a world of non-stop news well that was a fun train of thought just realize that yesterday was the six-month anniversary of my arrival here I wonder if IKEA sells party hats the routine around here has remained more or less the same more new folks show up on every couple of weeks or so food supplies go up and down but we've never actually had a major shortage occasionally we get a visitor from one of the nearby towns usually checkouts or I'll 6:30 we check in with each other from time to time occasionally trade supplies if someone gets particularly low on something it's comforting in a way a reminder that we aren't alone here some small glimmer of civilization sometimes they bring medical supplies apparently there's a pharmacy a few towns down from checkouts that gets restocked every now and then so they share out what they can I've never heard of an Ikea with a pharmacy before but at this point I wouldn't be surprised if someone stumbled on an ikea organ harvesting lab would certainly explain the staff speaking of our faceless jailers their attacks have been getting worse lately three or four times a week now with twice as many staff as there used to be no idea where they all come from or why the attacks have increased we tried following one of them during the day a few weeks ago me and Sara wanted to see if they led back to a staff room or something didn't seem to go anywhere though just randomly walked through the aisles we had to turn back before we found anything we've been reinforcing the walls trying to arm ourselves better certainly no lack of materials to use while seam has been making more crossbows but it's pretty slow going too bad IKEA doesn't sell guns never thought I'd say that nope no new personnel have entered SCP 3008 at site in the timespan indicated in this entry the attacks are getting bad now almost every night now with so many staff that the body's almost piled high enough for others to climb the walls I think we're in real trouble here exchanges I think exchange is done we got hit pretty bad last night not many casualties but the wall is wrecked we finally figured out why the attacks have been escalating to a box of supplies had a chunk of one of the staff in there no idea how it happened but apparently a piece of one will draw them as well as a full body too late now in any case there's too many bodies first the haul-away and still have time to fix the wall before midnight candice is called the meeting i suspect there will be talk of abandoning exchange maybe try and get shelter the check outs or something it's already getting late though I don't think we'll have time to make maybe some of us will I was fine for that first week out in the dark after all but then how often can I keep getting lucky I'm only writing this for a sense of closure I guess for me or for anyone who finds this if this is the final entry here I hope whoever is reading this is doing so from outside of this place my biggest fear if I do die tonight I'll just wake up here again in the morning note this is the last entry it is assumed that while he was attempting to reach the checkouts settlement he was separated from the rest of his group by pursuing a CP 3008 two instance and happened upon the accident booth I have been to Ikea a few times and that guy's recollection not that different from mine just saying that place is a war zone also why do I keep on getting assigned interdimensional scps I don't know anyway I think that about does it for today thank you very much for listening if indeed you still are and you were all dismissed go away I'm just kidding goodbye I would like to give a special thank you to

TheVogun is terrific and everyone should give them a listen

[u/Tommmmygun]

New Episode of "Confinement" is out featuring the IKEA btw.

[u/xdisk]

3008 please, marv

[u/PR0MAN1]

I swear i'd watch a film about this. The story from the journal is probably my favorite piece of SCP writing. It's so tragic and ironic and gripping that i'd love to see it put to film.

[u/TurntableTurnip088]

The correct term is "A Perfectly Normal Ikea."

[u/Finfeli]

I honestly wish we get more info on this SCP in the future, the ending just left me wanting more
