About this episode

This episode features a side story from the 'American Abyss' project set in the Palmyra Exclusion Zone.

We're back with another entry in our new project, "American Abyss." Today, we have a side story from somewhere in the "Palmyra Exclusion Zone." This one's just for you, my SCP fans! And don't worry, I promise we'll be back with more SCP's next week! About the Show: American Abyss is a multi-media internet horror project consisting of short stories, artwork, audio clips, and a podcast. Each of these small parts aim to give a glimpse into the world of the Palmyra Exclusion Zone. This world is hand crafted for folks who like to read the item descriptions in Souls games, or watch long lore videos. Inspired by "weird zone" stories like Roadside Picnic, Annihilation, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., and Pacific Drive.
