We've talked about how cool clones are in games and the fun things you can do with them. But then there are cloning labs. These are very cool places to have a group of heroes stumble into. Glass tanks full of twisted bodies suspended in some weird liquid. And you never know if they're suddenly going to move when you get close to them.
It doesn't have to be science fiction either. You can have fantasy labs with similar glass jars full of odd beings. Maybe a wizard is making homunculi or something. Or doing magical research on semi-living things. Either way, the weird creepiness of possibly living bodies is great for setting a mood.

You never should have made that bargain with the First Order, Kylo!
That's some really poorly done cloning or they're clones meant to be indistinguishable from the original Snoke. Probably original Snoke anyway; I guess it's not impossible for Snoke to have been a clone before. These have got that smashed skull and lack of hair thing going on as well. I wonder if there's the usual "clone has same memories" as well?
I do have to say though, I was expecting Palpatine clones, not Snoke clones. Maybe Snoke was meant to be a degenerate Palpaclone that escaped? That wouldn't explain why there's two more still being kept here though. Puppet bodies perhaps, and the head injuries are just from cybernetics getting implanted? Much more plausible, but also not really Star Wars-y. Though that could also be something that was off-putting or really badly written to people.
Palpatine also looks really zombie-like here. Maybe he didn't come back to life after all!
