a witch 


on the tenth day of June, 1693. 


Aiden Hayes hath caught his wife, Candice, 
consorting with the devil and one of his evil 
angels. The evil witch hath been justly 
convicted and shall be put to death by burning. 
If ye are able, come to the center of town. We 
need good men willing to stand between 
Satan's whore, and our young and womenfolk. 
Hayes a honest, god-fearing man, and the 
victim of this witch, has requested to be the 
one to start the flame himself.

Dear Candice, 
If you are reading this, something hath gone wrong. 


Thee must be angry, confused, maybe depressed. You 
have sold your soul to me when you were young, and 
we've been together since. Now that you have died, this 
means your soul is mine now. 


But | don't want t. | want you. 


I'm sorry we were caught. I'm sorry for what was done to 
you over the years. I'm still here for you, even if I'm not 
here with you. 


So | have brought you back. They put you to the pyre, 
but | only needed the bones to make you yourself again. 


| had to remove thy flesh, and | couldn't save your legs; 
they were too far gone. | made do with what was around 
me. | reaped from the field and wrapped your bones in 
wicker. You shall have to find a replacement. 


Speaking of, | wish to tell you something you'll want to 
know. Your husband restocked the shelf with gin, and 


while you are flammable, fire will only make you stronger 
this time. 


You have the power to make him feel worse than what 
you have felt. Make him wish he could go to Hell. 


You won't be hurt ever again. 
| love you, and Farewell.

Document-3998-5 


Foreword: The following document is an except from a urban 
legend website regarding an entity called the "Wicker Witch." Given 
supporting evidence, this is hypothesized to be Candice Hayes. 


The Wicker Witch 


There was once a young woman who was wed to a man against her 
will. She hated the man, but obeyed her father's wishes for her to 
bear children for his church. An evil spirit saw this, and came to her 
while she was out gathering in the woods. The succubus took her 
hand and told her "I can help you live the life you truly wish to live. 
You need only to toss this one aside in exchange." 


"Will you take my soul?" the woman asked. 
"Yes," said the she-devil. 
"Will | be rich?" the woman asked. 


"You shall have power that money could not hope to provide." the 
spirit told her. 


"Will | have a real love?" the woman asked. 
The spirit paused. "I do not know." 


The woman pondered the offer, and asked one more time, "what 
shall you do with my soul?" 


This surprised the devil, but it kept its composure. It told her "it will 
be consumed. Nothing more, nothing less." 


The woman accepted, and met with the spirit everyday for ten years, 
and grew close. She brought the spirit berries and trinkets, and it 
brought her advice and its companionship. It answered her 
questions and taught her its magicks. The woman became a witch, 
and she used her power to torment her husband the same way he 
tormented her. 


One day, her husband followed her and found her shaking the 
devil's tail. He quietly went back to the town and gathered up a mob. 
They tied her up to a stake, broke her legs, and hung her up like a 
scarecrow to burn. 


They dumped her body down the mountain, but the devil found her, 
to give back her soul. 


It wrapped her bones in reeds, and used the fire of her soul to keep 
her alive. But the fire consumed her, and she wanted her old 
husband to burn with her. 


In the middle of the night, she doused herself in her old husband's 
gin, and set herself ablaze once again. She dragged her husband 
out of bed and fell upon him. She burned his face, and with her 
thumb, dug his eyes out of his skull. 


She burned with him till his flesh melted to the floor, and the smell 
could be found all across Salem. She grabbed his legs, and pulled 
and pulled till they came loose, so that she could use them to walk 
again. 


Only one of them walked out of that burning house, and it was her. 
His body was never found; some say that the husband futily crawled 
out of the wreckage looking for his missing legs, others say that the 


witch took his body elsewhere, so that she could continue to torture 
him, but many more say that he's in a hell of the witch's own 
creation, burning over and over again, and bringing those like him 
down with him, punishing them forever. 


As for the witch herself, only one thing can be said for sure. The 
Wicker Witch lives. 


Examination-3998-6 


Foreword: Further examination of SCP-3998 revealed 
inconsistencies in bone structure/position, suggesting the cadaver is 
not Candice Hayes as originally thought. Below is a medical report 
of the findings.

REPORT OF INVESTIGATION BY SITE-34, SALEM, 
MASSACHUSETTS 


Decedent: unknown, SCP-3998 Race: White Sex: Male 
Age: 32 


Home Address: [REDACTED] M W S D Occupation: 
unknown 


Type of death: [Violent], [Found Dead], [Suspicious, 
unusual, or unnatural] 


Investigation Agency: SCP F; Site-34, Department K 


Description of body: 
[Unclothed] 


Eyes: unknown Hair: Black Mustache: Black beard: 
Black 
Weight: 5 kg length: 0.9 m Body Temp: 30° C Date 


and Time: [REDACTED] 


Marks and Wounds: SCP-3998 has sustained severe 
damage to its ribs and skull, implying it was hit several 
times with a blunt object. 4th degree burns can be found 
along its torso, arms, and skull. Damage around the eye 
sockets. Legs appear to have been amputated 
postmortem, and are missing. 


Probable Cause of Death: 4th degree burns, or trauma 
to the skull 
Manner of Death: Homicide 


Addendum-3998-2: After SCP-3998 was contained, there was a 
noted increase in the number of murders per day in Massachusetts, 
increasing from 0.32 to 0.48. A large portion of these deaths are 
arson-homicides, and the victims are known perpetrators of violent 
crimes. Victims appear covered in extensive 4th degree burns, and 
are gutted from the chest to pelvis. 


Information on these murders could not be contained due to the 
corpses being discovered in public displays and being attributed to 
the "Wicker Witch." The public has been led to believe that the 
perpetrator of these killings is a serial killer using the Wicker Witch 
legend as an inspiration. Classification to Euclid pending on the 
capture and containment of the person responsible.

SCP-3999: I Am At The Center of Everything That 
Happens To Me 


Let us go then, you and | 
When the Eleven-Day Empire eats the sky 
Like a humanoid melting like clams upon the breakfast table. 


Item #: SCP-3999 
Object Class: Apollyon 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3999 cannot be contained 
at the present moment, and currently poses a ZK Class End-of- 
reality scenario. The most advisable course of action is for 
Researcher Talloran, believed to be the focal point of SCP-3999, to 
remove himself from contact with all Foundation sites and personnel 
to avoid further collateral damage to Foundation property. It is 
theorized that if Researcher Talloran is contained in an extremely 
secluded area, then the destructive capabilities of SCP-3999 will 
temporarily cease 


stop

preserve some remnants 


The most advisable course of action is for Researcher Talloran, 
believed to be the focal point of SCP-3999, to remove himself from 
contact with all human populations to avoid further collateral 
damage to the Earth and its societies. It is theorized that if 
Researcher Talloran is to terminate himself quickly in a secluded 
region, then SCP-3999 will be decommissioned. 


Researcher Talloran cannot leave the Foundation. 


The most advisable course of action is for Researcher Talloran, 
believed to be the focal point of SCP-3999, to remove himself from 
contact with all animal life to avoid further collateral damage to the 
Earth and its biodiversity. It is theorized that if Researcher Talloran 
is to live out the rest of his life in a small shack, isolated from all 
animal life and as much plant life as possible. 


Research is currently continuing as to how to negate the effects of 
SCP-3999. Current proposals include launching it into the sun. 


Researcher Talloran's family is to be summarily executed one by 
one. The process is to be carried out by trained agents selected 
from a variety of Mobile Taskforces including MTF Omega-8, MTF 
Lambda-12, MTF Psi-7, MTF Tau-5, and MTF lota-10. These agents 
are to re-trained in military tactics and Special Weapons and Tactics 
maneuvers. Agents assigned are to score above 30 on the Hare 
Psychopathy Checklist. 


Agents assigned are to execute Researcher Talloran's mother first, 
followed by his father. Any animals present in the building are to be 
terminated. They are then to proceed to the location of Researcher 
Talloran's sister, currently a student at Penn State University. She is 
to be executed followed by any of her roommates currently present 
in the building. Termination is to occur via a single shot to the 
forehead via a Remington 700 Sniper rifle fired at close range and 
equipped with a silencer. The corpses are then to be nailed to the 
wall outside Researcher Talloran's office and lit on fire after being 
doused with exactly 10 L of gasoline. Researcher Talloran is to 
restrained and be made to kneel in front of the corpses 


SCP-3999 is to be classified as a 


Researcher Talloran's colleagues are to be summarily executed one 
by one. The process is to be carried out by trained agents selected 
from a variety of containment specialists. Site cafeteria workers are 
to slip arsenic into the meals of all staff who have had any contact 
with Researcher Talloran, up to and including members of the O5 
Council 


A representation of SCP-3999 is to be placed on a pedestal made of 
pure granite and modeled in the lonic style. This pedestal is to be 


placed directly in the center ina 5m x 5m square concrete 
containment chamber. The vault is to be protected by no fewer than 
two (2) armed guards trained in the resistance and containment of 
infohazards at any given time. 


SCP-3999 cannot be contained. 


SCP-3999, alongside Researcher Talloran, are to be delivered to 
the Serpent's Hand as a gift. All Serpent's Hand operatives are to be 
informed that SCP-3999 is a Fifthist artifact of great importance. 
Researcher Talloran is to be injected with Class-C amnestic and 
given the cover story that he is Brian Fredrick Bondiskey, a high 
ranking Fifthist leader. All Serpent's Hand operatives are to be 
informed that SCP-3999 and Researcher Talloran are not to be 
separated under any circumstances. 


SCP-3999 is to be contained with SCP-2432. The result of this 
containment procedure has resulted in a dimensional anomaly 
opening up within SCP-2432 in the form of a 3m x 25cm x 25cm 
crawlspace. It is designated SCP-2432-1, leading through the wall in 
a corner of SCP-2432. It is normally obscured by the television 
stand. When this crawlspace is accessed, it leads to a space 
identical to SCP-2432 in layout, decor and anomalous effects. The 
next room down from SCP-2432 lacks the exit of this crawlspace 
and although similar in layout, is not a perfect duplicate of 
SCP-2432, as the egress of SCP-2432-1 is. Curtains in this 
duplicate room open onto the wall; there are no windows. 


SCP-2432-1’s interior is constructed of normal steel plates as found 
inthe A Hotel’s ventilation system and is the only break in the 
para-aramid weave. High concentrations of iron and nickel 
consistent with those found in a Type III iron meteorite were found in 
two plates at each end. Graffiti of fractal patterns were also found on 
these endplates, drawn in permanent marker ink. 


The door of the identical SCP-2432 at the end of SCP-2432-1 leads, 
not to the true hallway of the A Hotel, as SCP-2432’s door does, 
but into an alternate reality (designated SCP-2432-Prime). Upon 
initial observation SCP-2432-Prime resembles the hallway of the 

A Hotel, with similar wallpaper, light fixtures, carpet and decor 
but is noted to lack a terminus at either end, appearing to extend 


endlessly. It is currently theorized that based on the measurements 
of the dimensions of SCP-2432-Prime and the duplicate SCP-2432 it 
is of infinite length. There is a slight curve to the walls of SCP-2432- 
Prime, and it has been theorized to be in a ‘ring’ structure, but 
current research cannot conclusively prove if SCP-2432-Prime is in 
a toroid shape. Each door of SCP-2432-Prime is labeled “Room 
710” and leads into what appear to be identical duplicates of 
SCP-2432. However, approximately % of duplicate rooms observed 
lack the metallic para-aramid weave and % of these lack the 
memetic effects documented in SCP-2432. SCP-2432-Prime also 
contains a number of occasional rooms that have other apparent 
functions, including restaurants, conference rooms, gyms, swimming 
pools, janitorial closets, and elevator lobbies. These differ in design 
from their equivalents within the A Hotel. 


SCP-2432-Prime plays host to a small range of anomalous species 
and organisms, some thought to be native to SCP-2432-Prime. 
These are designated SCP-2432-Prime-A1—A8.

SCP-519: Cheeky Phone Booth 


Item #: SCP-519 

Object Class: Safe 

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-519 is to be kept ina 
standard storing room 5x5 m in size. It must not be connected to a 


phone line unless experiments are being performed. 


Description: SCP-519 is a Model 7 Southwestern Bell phone box 


with heavy graffiti, serial number . Its displayed phone 
number matches that which it would have if it were in service. It was 
recovered from an abandoned mall in , Missouri, following 


rumors of a talking telephone box. 


When the handset is lifted, the user is greeted (with variations 
according to season and time of day) by a voice asking for the 
correspondent's name or phone number. The voice is of 
indeterminate gender, though most users perceive it as belonging to 
the opposite gender. Dialing the desired number instead of speaking 
into the handset causes the voice to become petulant. Any person 
may be requested, as long as a phone connection to a phone 
dedicated to that person can be reasonably established. Phones 
called may include blacklisted numbers and similar phones that are 
not supposed to receive calls etc., should that be the only phone 
used by the person on a regular basis. Once a number (with the 
exception of 1-800, 911 etc.) or person has been requested the 
appropriate rate (which are accurate as of 19 , when the mall was 
abandoned) will be demanded before further actions. Vocabulary 
and speech patterns of the voice vary greatly, but appear to roughly 
match those of the user, with a few exceptions. 


During the entire conversation, the user will never directly hear the 
person they have called, instead having their speech reported by the 
voice. Conversations appear normal from the other end of the line, 
with speech addressed to the SCP not heard. What is heard,
