SCP-3454
The Land DENIERS of Tall Bees
Special Containment Procedures
Any individual leaving the Land of Tall Bees is to be interrogated until it can be determined whether or not they are an SCP-3454 instance. Containment of SCP-3454 individuals is to be enacted immediately. The Lead Researcher of Site-BEES is tasked with:
- determining what is to be done with individuals who are SCP-3454, and
- ascertaining the best way to introduce the entire population of Earth to the Land of Tall Bees, one person at a time, with Foundation personnel given priority.
Research is ongoing.
Description
SCP-3454 is the designation for individuals who don't agree that the bees are tall.
The Land of Tall Bees1 is accessible via a temporospatial tear23 located inside an abandoned Target Canada store in Niagara Falls, Ontario. The bees are very tall.
The portal to the Land of Tall Bees was discovered in 2016 by an individual who understood the bees and their tallness. The portal was brought to the Foundation's attention after numerous SCP-3454 instances contacted the police, outing themselves as anomalies. After securing the location, Foundation personnel were introduced to the Land of Tall Bees4 and the location began operation as Site-BEES.
It is currently unknown why some individuals are SCP-3454. Unfortunately, the only way to determine whether or not an individual is SCP-3454 or not is to send them through the portal. This often upsets the bees. You do not want tall, upset bees.
Indications of being SCP-3454 include:
- lack of desire to discuss the bees
- disinterest in the bees
- not stating the bees are tall without being prompted
- interfering in Foundation operations at Site-BEES.

Personnel Involved: D-0901, D-9310, Agent Cook, Agent Block, Doctor Wessig, Doctor Addams, Junior Researcher Mazn
Methodology: Find out just how tall the bees are.
Test Results: Subjects enter the portal to the Land of Tall Bees with measuring tapes. Tapes are not long enough to measure the bees.7 Average bee height confirmed as being greater than 3.6 meters.
Notes: This test was not authorized. I suspect SCP-3454 is having an adverse effect on my team. I am calling a moratorium on testing until we can get an infohazard response team down here. - Dr. Page, former Lead Researcher, SCP-3454
