In this deep dive, host Torrid Embrox unseals one of the SCP Foundation’s most feared and forbidden subjects: The Scarlet King. Known only in redacted files and whispered cult texts, the King is said to be the end of all order, the father of horrors, and perhaps the very embodiment of apocalypse.

Through leaked reports, hidden transcripts, and chilling testimonies, Torrid guides listeners into the Foundation’s most classified archives: the rituals of the Children of the Scarlet King, the mystery of SCP-231’s seven brides, and the crumbling locks of SCP-2317. Along the way, we confront a terrifying paradox — that the very act of containment may be feeding the monster it seeks to bind.

Is the Scarlet King a god, a virus of ideas, or the inevitable death of our reality? And what happens when the final lock breaks?

Step carefully into the dark. Some truths were never meant to be spoken.

In this episode of "Mindful Progress: A Journey," we delve into the windswept deserts of the American Southwest. There are stories people don’t tell lightly—stories of figures in the dark, voices that mimic the familiar, and creatures that wear the skins of animals. These are the tales of the Skinwalker.

In this episode we explore the chilling Navajo legend of the yee naaldlooshii, the shapeshifter said to walk on all fours and wield dark magic. We delve into real-life encounters, ancient beliefs, and the cultural boundaries that make the Skinwalker one of the most feared—and least understood—figures in Native American folklore. But beware… Some say speaking of them too often invites them.

Ticci Toby, born Tobias Erin Rogers, has a life marked by medical conditions and tragedy. His abusive father and the loss of his sister Lyra led to hallucinations and night terrors. After a violent confrontation with his father, Toby disappeared and transformed into Ticci Toby, a name earned from his tic-like laughter and movements. He wields hatchets with deadly precision and is a proxy for Slender Man's malevolent will.

Clockwork, or Natalie Outlette, was created by relentless bullying and neglect. After a vicious attack, she embraced the persona of Clockwork, carving a clock-shaped scar around her eye and replacing her damaged eye with a clock mechanism. She seeks revenge with precision, using a large kitchen knife. Her connection to Slender Man is ambiguous, with some narratives suggesting she is a proxy, while others portray her as an independent entity driven by a twisted sense of justice.

This episode explores the complex and chilling narratives of Ticci Toby and Clockwork, revealing their tragic pasts, horrifying abilities, and links to Slender Man. Their tales offer a glimpse into the darkest corners of human imagination, making them unforgettable characters in the Creepypasta universe. Prepare to be engrossed in their macabre world and discover what makes them uniquely terrifying. Tune in, if you dare, and experience the true essence of these eerie characters.

Aleph a newcomer at school seems a bit off, anyone with a normal point of view would have said that but what happens if we see things from his point of view? Turns out there's more to him than that meets the eye.

Report card day reveals that his grades are not any better than an average kid, but what sets him apart? Observing the kid Aleph turned out more insightful than one would expect and it gave us the answer we were looking for initially. He doesn't care about his future and only likes to play games. Some people already see him as the weird kid but if one were to spend time with him it would change their thoughts.

Slowly molding someone the way you want them to be can be sometimes easy and sometimes very hard, but once done the road is very easy from then on and the up-taking is easier as well.

Aleph has turned into a more normal and humane kid after consultation and a lot of indirect therapy.
