The SCP Foundation and the Fable of Humanity (Feat: The Exploring Series)
Channel: Captain Pointless
Date: 2022-11-23

Why is the SCP wiki so popular? What makes all these monsterous anomalies so interesting? This video essay dives deeper into that question. Guided by the Exploring Series. 

I know this video might be a bit overstating itself but I really had to make something of a love letter to the SCP Wiki. I don’t even like horror myself that much per se but the SCP Foundation stood out to me. I grew to love it and had to make something like this.

It took a while to make this but the end result feels for me something that was worth the wait. Hope you enjoyed and if you did, please do tell me with a comment. I can hardly tell if people like what I do so any kind of feedback would be appreciated (also increased traffic and interaction helps [0_^])

Also low key mentioning it here. Thought it be akward to put it in the video but my mom actually helped me coming up with this video. I tried to explain to her why I loved the SCP Foundation and that's what set me on the track of making this video.

Thanks so much to the Exploring Series for voicing this video! He is an amazing guy and if you don’t know him (how?) go check him out for more SCP Content.
