Background

SCP-087 is an unlit platform staircase located on a [REDACTED] campus. It has been explored by about four people with them never being able to find a bottom to it. All of them have had a similar series of events, where they hear the crying of a child, try to go to the source of the crying with it never changing in volume, and then they meet SCP-087-1 causing them to scream and panic, running back up the staircase.
