Item #: SCP-6343

Object Class: Neutralized

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-6343's containment cell is to be monitored by one guard at all times. Changes in the behavior of SCP-6343 are to be reported to site staff.

No attempts to open or otherwise access SCP-6343 are to be made until further notice.

As of 16/2/21, SCP-6343 is considered neutralized.

Description: SCP-6343 is a large rectangular container composed of an anomalously strong form of glass and a wooden base. A small locked hatch is located on the back of SCP-6343, although all attempts to open it have failed. A metal plaque is attached to the base of SCP-6343, with the words 'The Amazing Non-Existing Beast' present on its surface.

Several objects are contained within SCP-6343:

A wooden chair.

A pair of shackles, both bolted to the floor.

Two metal bowls, both exhibiting signs of previously containing unidentified forms of meat and water, respectively.

A key, thought to be used to open the hatch on the back of SCP-6343, although this cannot be tested due to the key's currently unreachable location.

The objects within SCP-6343 are commonly moved and struck against the walls in a violent manner, and all show signs of severe damage. Notably, the shackles are in motion near the floor at most times. Noise regularly originates from SCP-6343, including muffled vocalizations and banging on its glass walls.

Recovery: SCP-6343 was recovered in a recently-abandoned pawn shop in Halifax, Nova Scotia. A note was found taped onto the object's exterior, which read as follows:

Not sure how the hell this thing works, but it's been
going apeshit since I dropped the key in yesterday.
No wonder that guy was in such a hurry to get rid of it.

For some reason the door-thingy locked itself automatically.
Could you call someone to get it open?

Thanks.
