SCP-3074.
Item #: SCP-3074
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Foundation personnel are to work with the Ukrainian government to ensure that the building containing SCP-3074-A remains isolated and under quarantine. Entry into this building requires a minimum of Level-3 clearance.
Description: SCP-3074 is the Izotova Parking Center, an underground car park located beneath an office building in Pripyat, Ukraine.1 There are no records of its existence until its discovery by the Foundation in 1988.
SCP-3074-A is a freight elevator used to access the first floor of SCP-3074. Pressing its only button will lower the elevator into SCP-3074. At this point, it becomes impossible to locate its occupants via GPS signal. Communication via cellphone and radio are possible, but unreliable.
As of now, no means of entering SCP-3074 outside of the operation of SCP-3074-A has been found. In addition, SCP-3074-A will not return to the surface until it is completely empty and its doors are shut. Efforts to devise a method of safely leaving SCP-3074 (either via SCP-3074-A or via alternative means) are underway.
An instance of SCP-3074-B.
SCP-3074-B instances are electronic kiosks stationed on every floor. Each kiosk includes a phone receiver, a keypad, an LCD screen, a coin slot, a card slot, a printer, and instructions.2 When the phone receiver is lifted, an internal line will ring three times; it will then be answered by SCP-3074-C.
SCP-3074-C is the voice of an unidentified entity. An investigation to determine its nature and whereabouts is currently underway.
One floor of SCP-3074 is 0.72-hectares (1.8 acres) in area, and contains 215 parking spaces. On the first floor, a ramp on the north end leads down to the next level. Each successive level has two ramps (one going down, one going up). Every level after the first shows increasing signs of decay and dysfunction, including broken light fixtures, inoperable SCP-3074-B instances, and barricades constructed of abandoned vehicles. These barricades are typically found obstructing ramps leading down.
Although efforts are ongoing to determine the amount of levels below SCP-3074's first floor, evidence suggests the number is well above 100.
Addendum 3074.1: The following logs are samples of audio recovered from compact cassette tapes found in the offices above SCP-3074. All dialogue is translated from Ukrainian.

VOICE 1: Hello?
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: Listen: You need to send someone to come get me. I've been stuck down here for two, maybe three hours. There's no one down here. There's no stairs, there's not even a bathroom. I don't know what you think this is, but —
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: You can't do this. You can't do this to me. I'm an important person. People are going to notice I'm missing. People are going to come looking.

VOICE 1: This is an experiment, isn't it? A government experiment. Like in the movies.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: I went down, again. More cars. Then I went down again, and there were just more cars. Then again, and… well, yes. I'm certain of it. This is some sort of experiment.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: But I think there has been a mistake. I'm not important enough for experiments. I'm just an accountant, you see? When I said that people would notice I was missing, I was lying. I'm nobody. There's really no point to experimenting on someone like me.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: Are you there? Am I right? Is this some sort of experiment? If so, what should I do? What do you want me to do?
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Is that your way of saying yes?
VOICE 2:[Sighing.] Precinct, zone, number or letter.

VOICE 1: I'm calling you from Level 7. There are service phones on every level. Did you know that? I did not know that. I thought the one on the first level was the only one. I am on Level 7, by the way. Nothing here but more abandoned cars. Some look very old.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: There's an unpleasant smell, too. I'm not sure what it is, but —
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Alright, yes, I know what it is. I'm sorry. I had to. I had no other choice. There are no bathrooms down here, you understand? And I couldn't hold it in any longer, and —
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: I did it in the corner. In a spot that should be easy to clean up. I hope it's easy to clean up. I'm sorry.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: Are you still there?
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Alright. I will try again later. I need to find water. Food and water. Maybe in one of the cars.

[Distant piano music.]
VOICE 1: What is that? What is that I'm hearing? Is that — music?
VOICE 2:[Muffled, unintelligible.]
[Piano music stops.]
VOICE 1: Were you listening to music? What kind of music was that? I don't recognize it. You listen to music? Do you like music? What kind of music do you like?
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: You can turn it back on. I don't mind. It's okay, you can listen to music while we talk. I don't mind. I don't mind.

VOICE 1: I'm, I'm probably frustrating you. I'm sorry.
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: I don't mean to bother you. I'm sorry. You probably just want to listen to your music.
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Okay. I'll, I'll leave you be for now. I'll let you listen to your music. I'm sorry.
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.

VOICE 1: I've made it to Level 27. The lights aren't working properly down here. I managed to find a flashlight in one of the cars, though.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: I can't find food or water. I'm very thirsty. But I'll keep going. That's the way out, right? You just want me to keep going down. Say something if I'm supposed to keep going down.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: I hear scuttling now and then. I think I see shapes from the corner of my eye. Large shapes. I can't quite make them out, but —
[Shuffling.]
VOICE 1: Hello?
VOICE 3:[Distant, unintelligible.]
VOICE 2:[Distant laughing.]
VOICE 1: Is… is there someone else there with you?
VOICE 2:[Distant, unintelligible.]
VOICE 1: Are you talking to someone else? What are you talking to them about?
VOICE 2:[Clearing throat.] Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: You were just talking to someone else. Who were you talking to?
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Why will you talk to him but not me? Is he your friend?
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: That's… that's not fair. You'll talk to him, but you won't talk to me? What's wrong with talking to me? Why won't you talk to me?
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Just talk to me. Just talk to me, please!
VOICE 2: Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Fucking talk to me!

VOICE 1: I don't know what level I'm on. All the lights stopped working about — five? Five levels ago, I think. I would have called you sooner, but this is the first phone I've found that wasn't smashed or broken.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: The flashlight still works, but I think the batteries are running low. I've been using it to search cars for a new one. I found — I found a gun, in one of the glove compartments. A pistol. I've never seen one before. Not in real life. Only in movies.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: It's much heavier than I thought it would be.
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: My skin is very itchy. I think I'm developing a rash. Hard to see in all the darkness. Should I keep going? I keep thinking… if someone comes for me, they'd have to go all the way down to find me. It would be very hard to find me, down here. Should I stop?
[Silence.]
VOICE 1: Should I keep going down?
[Muffled shuffling.]
VOICE 2:[Heavy breathing] Precinct, zone, number or letter.
VOICE 1: Are you — are you panting? Were you away from the phone?
