SCP Vault 8 [P.1]: Most Haunted

[@ROUNDERHOUSE]

Hey, I'm the author of Burnley Estate/SCP-6274 -- thank you for featuring my work! You absolutely did Burnley's voice justice and I hope the article was appropriately spooky, tysm ✨

[@thecannonball34]

Love your articles!

[@Abominable_Intelligences]

Thank you for your service!

[@complex2live]

This was amazing bro. What a good job.

[@hilotakenaka]

Hey man, I just wanna say fantastic work!

[@drphiI]

great work! big fan of southern gothic, so it was really cool to see something akin to that genre get a treatment of SCP and anomalous entities.

[@voidastralbirth]

Listen, I’m a brave boy. But when Mr. Night Mind arrives and straight up announces _“Listener discretion is advised”,_ that is when I boldly wear brown pants.

[@johnathanmonsen6567]

He then quickly follows it up with a "Do not attempt at home" warning, to boot.

[@danielkruger1173]

Thank god I'm always pale so no one notices me beeing spooked xD

It's an upside to watching youtube in the bathroom. When Nick scares the shit outta me, it's at least going to the right place

[@_SamC_]

Unearth Is genuinely terrifying good lord I’m a total horror junkie, not much phases me anymore but scp 3515 gave me the chills man It hits so much harder if you imagine yourself in that situation… imagine waking up in your old childhood bedroom only to discover you are literally buried alive

[@griffy9639]

whoever wrote that one is definitely claustrophobic lmao

[@WobblesandBean]

Not only that, but to be locked in an eternal cycle like that. It's nightmare fuel.

[@pikapwn345]

As soon as I heard "Scan of a ticket or other redeemable document" I INSTANTLY knew it was "Ticket To Ride" The first SCP to ever cause me to lose sleep. Whoever thought to include it in this collection made a great choice.

[@KenLieck]

In theory that decision could have been made by personnel in the A&R, PR, HR or Pufnstuf departments, but actually such a high-level sign-off always comes from at least the Senior VP (aka the old guy from Valet Parking). In this particular case, however, the office scuttlebutt has it that the order to process that doc for Vaultcast inclusion came down from NEO-CEO Nocturne itself....

[@kenziekleinsasser6965]

YASSSSS I LOVE TICKET TO RIDE!

[@cleffa173]

I hate the fact that people are being so disrespectful this year. SCP Vault is a wonderful treat I look forward to every year. While I’m a little sad there are less stories this year, as my best friend Blaze pointed out, it’s Quality over Quantity. Which is something I GREATLY appreciate.

[@A_Toaster]

Can't believe nightmind has gone so commercial, only producing an hour and a half of content? Smh my head.

[@gentlemangamerec7025]

Unearth was terrifying. To quote a comment left on the entry, "Well, I didn't have Taphophobia before reading this." Amazing picks this year!

[@abyssGazerTV]

When a Night Mind video opens with a "this is too scary" trigger warning you know you're going to be fucked

[@Beowolf-jy5rc]

well there are phobia's linked with the story's like Taphophobia, Claustrophobia & Cleithrophobia and they could cause anxiety when listening or more, I'm not even remotely experienced in phobia's or that knowledgeable of them but if alax cansas includes a phobia warning in an episode for Emetophobia and it's purely auditory then i think this could trigger a negative reaction.

[@_SamC_]

The type writer is such a good scp It provides context for the story in a way that allows it to deviate from standard foundation format while simultaneously remaining entirely vanilla in its feel A lot of scp tales miss this mark and it creates a form of dissonance between the document and the tale that breaks emersion. This scp justifies its informal storytelling in the best way possible. Allowing for the author to write short scp tales from the perspective of an outsider that feel authentic to the standard scp format.

[@complex2live]

I am starting to write short psychological stories, and an editor friend of mine suggested SCP. I have heard some spooky stories from the dark, and now I am ready to embrace it once again with you, our 4-Eyed, Deep-Voiced Cat Demon, Nick Nocturne. A pleasant and unexpected sight to behold at 9 PM on a dark and cloudless Wednesday Night.

[@MaliaMydnight]

I'm putting two characters into the SCP database, and plenty of case files because the first "instance" is technically qualified as Apollyon, and can pull a YK-Class Scenario with a thought. She just doesn't care enough to actually pull on her abilities past "I just sat down and the remote is over there" levels. Well, unless you give her a reason to, and even then, you'd have to try to kill someone she cares about for her to pull out a few stops. She's like the mafia. Don't poke that bear, and it won't poke you. 😂 I look forward to seeing what's up your sleeve!

I'm not the first and I won't be the last to say thank you for going back to the old format. I like both but your old style of videos just nails it. You're one of the rare creators that had it perfect right off the jump. At the end of the day I will support what you make regardless, so long as your happy with what you're making ❤

[@drewo.127]

I actually read this in Nick’s voice in my head…er…my “Night Mind!” 😉

[@NightMind]

Thanks for your patience in awaiting SCP Vault 8. And if you've enjoyed the SCP Vault series or Night Mind over the years, do please consider picking up the limited edition vinyl figure celebrating October! Link is below. UPDATE: The vinyl figure campaign has gone into a 72-hour HALLOWEEN EXTENSION! You have until the end of November 1st to pre-order, and I've received word that the close we are to 500, the more room there is to still look at options for producing, making it MUCH more possible! But we need to get closer, and we're already past 400 pre-orders. Official Nick Nocturne Figure: bit.ly/3Zl7h0x NM Twitter: goo.gl/OHSW0F

[@mookinbabysealfurmittens]

That figure is so legit! To anyone who hasn't seen the short video NM posted round the start of Oct, check it! You get a great look at a really great piece of art! (Jar optional. ^_~)

[@gracefulbean9894]

As a college student who needs something fun and engaging to listen to during long art projects, I thank you, Mr. Nocturne!!

[@moxxym]

it's finally here again, SCP Vault, no dilly's this time sadly but man do these stories make up for it, the Burley estate is some of the most existential horror I've ever experienced. I hope to one day create something only half the level of atmosphere of that story, what an incredible piece of art. Thanks for making these darker times, both environmental as in my own mind, bearable Nick, it's been a rough couple of weeks for me and this series is one of the few things that actually keep me going in these uncertain and scary times. Thanks once again, you really changed my life.

[@larindanomikos]

Okay, I have this typewriter and I'm not even kidding. It's sitting in my bedroom closet right now. Still works.

[@makaylat.7005]

holy shit i LOVE the burnley estate...the idea of a known ghost haunting not being the focus, but something harming THOSE GHOSTS is really clever and i havent heard that done before. excellent work to the author!!

[@calsifer666]

The soft tones of Nightmind, a nice horror series, it's honestly going to be a good end to a bad day. Thank you, Mr.Nocturne.

[@cjthebeesknees]

Your narration is like pouring rich melting chocolate in my ears and I’m digging (no SCP pun intended) every second of it.🔥

[@imnotwhatiseem1727]

I was gonna watch this all immediately, but after that warning?... I'm saving this masterpiece for Halloween 💖🎃

[@Predator20357]

Clicked on this quickly so I don’t forget to watch this, You make SCP so much fun to listen to. Edit (Spoilers): Damn, I couldn’t figure out why the final story just pissed me off until I thought about it and realized, it’s literal Railroading

[@mhc706]

Thirty seconds in and I gotta say that was the coolest “trigger warning” I’ve ever heard. Great wording

You know this year's SCP Vault is gonna be crazy when it leads off with what's basically a "Listener's Discretion is Advised" message.

[@imchrisu]

This is by far my favorite SCP content on KZbin. Your voice is a pleasure and your taste in stories is immaculate. Thank you for continuing to do this every year and I hope we get to enjoy many more years of SCP Vaults. Your one of my favorite creators both here and in Astraline!

[@daniellesgames]

Great job on the video, Nick. You did a wonderful job voice acting wise, and storytelling wise. When you were reading and even somewhat after, I couldn't/can't help but think of the Goosebumps and Are You Afraid of the Dark tv series (especially the second one). There were a couple of episodes in particular: The Doll Maker (that had to do with a doll house that was in someone's home. As it turns out, there was a door in the attic, which was right near the doll house and looked like the dollhouse door. If you went through that door, you'd end up in the dollhouse. If you stayed too long, you'd turn into a doll.) and The Tale of the Dream Machine (where there was a typewriter that whatever you typed on it, when read out loud, would actually happen.)

[@pleasesstobh2532]

yes!! i’m so excited to watch this one. your scp series is by far one of the things i look forward to most every october and it comes out the day before my birthday? what a gift!!

[@LeviathanProbably]

(early) happy birthday!!

During one of the parts where something grabbed the person in Unearth, my cat snuck up and jumped at my leg. OMG, I almost died. Great job Nick!

[@jackofminds8338]

Demon Friend returns. Demon Friend is good.

[@clownfishstix]

the pure dread of Unearth, dude. i was afraid that it would be him. you're either scared that this SCP has claimed this many victims or that this poor man is living in a loop. and the fact that the test subject knew the observer by name instead of a number was heart wrenching, it reminded us that he was a human being living through this.

[@JayGatz4]

Ty Nick for your content warnings. Just gonna say that before diving in, because if I have to duck out, it's after you gave ample warning that I might have to, and I appreciate that.

[@jacobcain9008]

Considering my convenient shape, im surprised the Foundation hasnt come after me.

Wow. These were horrific. From the fear of losing one's legacy in Burnley Estate, to the claustrophobic nostalgic horror of Unearth, to the animalistic and desperate yet unaware nature of Ticket To Ride, all wrapped together by Night Mind's voice. 10/10.
