Description
SCP-993 is a children's television program titled "Booble the Clown", which was first broadcast on ██ / ██ / 19██. SCP-993 appears to have been made in the style of an educational cartoon, with the main plot of most episodes being the main character, Booble the Clown, learning a new skill or activity. The show does not appear to have any supporting cast and the setting of the show seems to change often between each episode.

SCP-993's anomalous properties become apparent when the show is viewed. Anyone who watches it and is 10 years old or older will fall unconscious when the show begins and will remain unconscious until the end of the program, then reporting a throbbing headache before being knocked unconscious.

Children under the age of ten who view SCP-993 report that it teaches and advocates activities such as cannibalism, murder, torture, [DATA EXPUNGED]. These activities seem to take hold of the subject's mind; repeated exposure to SCP-993 may result in permanent psychotic and schizophrenic symptoms.

SCP-993 episodes are regularly broadcast from an unknown source, but since ██ / ██ / 20██, all transmissions have been successfully intercepted using the Upsilon-Beta 3 Protocol and blocked from the public eye.
