Description: SCP-040-JP is a well located in the village of █████, in the ██████ prefecture. It is surrounded by a wooden hut, measuring approximately 5 m wide and 4 m long. The center of the hut houses a stone well presumed to have been built in ancient times, which descends directly underground. The well is anomalously deep and multiple probes have failed to determine its depth.

Although the hut was originally locked tightly with iron chains and multiple padlocks, they have since broken due to deterioration. SCP-040-JP was placed into containment after Incident [​REDACTED] in 1967.

[​Warning: After Incident-040-JP-001 in 19██, the following contents are prohibited for viewing without memetic countermeasures. Personnel assigned to this project must be treated with Procedure-253 "Willow Ashes" at Sector-8120.]
