Interview Log-1357-Lambda-1: On 04/08/2005, Agent Fredricks 
and his immediate family were equipped with audio recording 
devices that constantly transmitted to Foundation consoles. They 
entered SCP-1357 using three confiscated instances of SCP-1357- 
B. Fredricks attempted to interview an instance of SCP-1357-A. 


Interviewed: SCP-1357-A-4878, which was dressed 
similar to "Steve" from the children's program "Blue's 
Clues" 

Interviewer: Agent Fredricks 

Foreword: Agent Fredricks had isolated a single 
SCP-1357-A subject out of the population wandering 
around the park for the purpose of this interview. 


<Begin Log> 


Agent Fredricks: Can you tell me about this place? 


SCP-1357-A: Sure! Playland is a place for all your family 
fun needs! We cater specifically to your family's needs 
each time, and do our best to make sure you're satisfied! 


Agent Fredricks: Who made you? 


SCP-1357-A: Mr. Fredricks, that's certainly not 
important! [No members of Fredricks's family had 
previously revealed their last name to any instance of 
SCP-1357-A.] 


Agent Fredricks: It is important. Please just answer my 
questions. [aside to his daughter] Not right now sweetie, 
I'm trying to work. 


SCP-1357-A: Work? Why, Mr. Fredricks! There's no 
need to worry about anything so silly as work! Just have 
fun! Look, your daughter wants you to play! 


Agent Fredricks: [aside to his daugher] Hailey, I'll be 
there in a minute, | promise. No, I'm not being mean to 
Steve. Go over with mom, okay? [speaking to 
SCP-1357-A] |'m afraid that | must work right now. You 
are exactly why | have my job. 


SCP-1357-A: [sighing] I'm sorry, but if you can't relax, 
I'm afraid you're going to ruin the fun for everyone else if 
you don't stop. 


Agent Fredricks: Please just answer the questions. 
Now, how long has this park been open? 


SCP-1357-A: I'm terribly sorry to do this, but you seem 
to be upsetting your daughter. 


<End Log> 
Closing Statement: Agent Fredricks was forcibly 


removed from SCP-1357 by three instances of 
SCP-1357-A. Agent Fredricks's wife attempted to exit the 


park, despite great protest from their daughter. As 
Adelaide Fredricks attempted to leave the park, several 
instances of SCP-1357-A separated the subjects, 
preventing Mrs. Fredricks from reentering the park and 
leading their daughter by hand back into the park. One of 
the individuals was noted as saying, "Don't worry 
sweetie, you don't have to leave if you don't have to! 
They'll be back for you later, when you're ready." 


After the events of Interview Log-1357-Lambda-1, MTF-Delta-2 (aka 
"Rescue Rangers") was dispatched in an attempt to recover Hailey 
Fredricks from SCP-1357. Despite superior firepower and training, 
MTF-Delta-2 was outnumbered and overwhelmed by SCP-1357-A 
instances and was unable to recover the subject. Further recovery 
attempts are currently pending. 


Interview Log-1357-Lambda-2: Hailey Fredricks's audio recording 
device continued to trasmit signals after the events of Interview 
Log-1357-Lambda-1. The following are excerpts of audio received. 
All voices not positively identified as belonging to Hailey Fredricks 
are presumed to belong to various instances of SCP-1357-A. 


Hailey: Say, why are you a girl Steve? 


SCP-1357-A: Why, all the boy Steves are busy getting 
the park ready for you! 


Note: This was received during the failed MTF recovery 
attempt. 


Hailey: This is so, so, so much fun! | never ever ever 
wanna’ leave! | love you, Mr. Steve! 


SCP-1357-A: Haha, | love you too, Hailey! I'm so glad 
you came to join us! 


SCP-1357-A: Guess what's here, Hailey! 
Hailey: What is it, what is it?! 


SCP-1357-A: Heeere comes the mail, it's just a snail, it 
makes me wanna wag my tail, when it comes | wanna 


wail, MAAAIIIL! 


Hailey: No, the song goes, um, the song says "it never 
fails," not "it's just a snail!" 


SCP-1357-A: Haha, silly me, | forgot! Anyways, here are 
your letters. You got one from your mom and your dad. 
Yaaay!4 


Hailey: Thank you! Um, Steve? | can't read, can you tell 
me what this says? 


SCP-1357-A: Of course honey! "Dear Hailey, we hope 
you are having a lot of fun! We would love to come visit, 
but we have so much work and we are tired. Just send 
us a letter when you want to come home and we'll be 
there right away! P.S. Daddy says to brush your teeth!" 


SCP-1357-A: ...and here's the biiiggest bedroom we 
have. You get to sleep here, Hailey! | hope you like it, we 
made that big thinking chair just for you! We made sure it 
was big enough and snuggly enough to sleep on every 
night. 


Hailey: [squeals] Oh, | love it! Thank you, Mr. Stevie! 


Hailey: Why aren't my mommy and daddy coming yet? | 
thought | wrote that letter so good... 


SCP-1357-A: Oh, Hailey, maybe they're just busy. I'm 
sure that they'll be right here as soon as they read that 
letter. 


Hailey: Mr. Steve, when is mommy and daddy coming 
back? 


SCP-1357-A: What's the matter honey? Are you not 
having fun anymore? 


Hailey: Oh, | am! | just wanna’ know when | hafta go 
home. 


SCP-1357-A: [laughs] Oh, Hailey, you're always 
welcome here! 


Hailey: Yay! I'm so happy you're here, Mr. Steve. 


Hailey: My legs huuurt and we've been waiting 
foreeever. Are you sure the letter said they were coming 
today? 


SCP-1357-A: Hm, let me check again..."We got your 
wonderful letter...found a day off...coming on 
Saturday...front entrance." Yep, that's what the letter 
says. 


Hailey: Hmph. Can we go back inside? | wanna’ slushie. 


SCP-1357-A: Of course, Hailey. And while we're there, 
we can write another letter to them asking why they 
didn't come when you asked them to. 


SCP-1357-A: "Did we say yesterday? Sorry sweetie, we 
forgot. We were real busy doing our grownup things and 
didn't remember to pick you up. We're real sorry. | think 

we have another day off next month, so we can pick you 
up then! Love, daddy and mommy." 


Hailey: [sniffs] 


Hailey: Steve, do mommies and daddies sometimes 
stop loving their babies? 


SCP-1357-A: Hm, sometimes, | think. Why do you ask? 


Hailey: | think my mommy and daddy stopped loving me. 
[sobbing] 


SCP-1357-A: Oh, oh, oh, dear friend, don't be upset! 
We're here to love you even if your mean old parents 
won't. 


Hailey: [sniffs] Forever? 


SCP-1357-A: Forever! 
Hailey: Promise? 


SCP-1357-A: Promise. We'll always be here for you 
even if they aren't. 


Hailey: Ms. Steve, | want my mommy and daddy. 


SCP-1357-A: Hailey, stop thinking such silly thoughts 
about those mean people! Here, have some more funnel 
cake, then we can ride on the carousel again! 


Hailey: No! No, no no! | want my mommy and daddy! 


SCP-1357-A: [laughs] Oh, dearie, they're no fun. I'm 
here for you now! We're your family! C'mon, let's play! 


Hailey: [sounds of falling objects] | don't wanna’ play no 
more, Ms. Steve. 


SCP-1357-A: Sure you do, silly! Come on, there's a 
brand new playground that's all for you! 


Hailey: Can you take me to them? 

SCP-1357-A: Why? Aren't you having fun anymore? 
Hailey: | miss my mommy and daddy a whole, whole lot. 
SCP-1357-A: But we're your family! 

Hailey: Nuh uh! You're my friends. | want my family. 
SCP-1357-A: So you don't love us anymore? 

Hailey: Of course | do, but | love my family even more! 
[There is a prolonged silence.] 


SCP-1357-A: [sighing] Well, it always happens 
eventually. C'mon, let's get you to your family. 


[approximately 5 minutes of footsteps] 
Hailey: Steve? Steve, | think we're lost... 
SCP-1357-A: | know, dearie. | know. 
Hailey: What's that thing? It looks scary... 


SCP-1357-A: You said you wanted your family, didn't 
you Hailey? Well, come on! This will take you right to 
them! 


Hailey: Prooomise? 
SCP-1357-A: Of course, Hailey! | would never lie to you! 
Hailey: Well...okay. 


[There is a sound of hissing, as well as assorted beeps 
and whirring.] 


SCP-1357-A: See you soon, sister. 
Hailey: [screaming] 


Note: At this point, the audio transmission device ceased 
functioning. 


Incident Report-1357-Zeta: Agent Fredricks returned to SCP-1357 
unauthorized the day following the previously described events, and 
proceeded to kill approximately 30 instances of SCP-1357-A while 
shouting obscenities. Fredricks ceased firing upon viewing a subject 
that appeared to be Hailey Fredricks, who approached the front 
entrance of SCP-1357. The subject hugged Agent Fredricks and 
said "I told you, | don't wanna’ leave yet." Subsequently, two 
instances of SCP-1357-A approached the agent and rendered him 
unconscious via blows to the head. Agent Fredricks has been issued 
a warning for unprofessional behavior and damaging the anomaly. 


Incident Report-1357-Eta: Agent Fredricks was allowed to oversee 
testing of SCP-1357 on 16/10/2005. During experimentation, Agent 
Fredricks used a spare instance of SCP-1357-B and entered the 


area independent of the test subjects. Fredricks sought out the 
subject resembling Hailey Fredricks and reportedly attempted to 
converse with it. The subject did not respond and Fredricks ceased 
attempts at communication after approximately 15 minutes, then left 
the park. 


Site Director's Note: As of 16/10/2005, Agent Fredricks is required to 
attend a minimum of eight counseling sessions with the on-site 
psychologist, Dr. Yeats. Futhermore, Fredricks has been hereby 
reassigned to SCP- and is forbidden from working with 
SCP-1357. - Site Director Langley 


Audio Log-1357-Psi: The following log was transcribed from an 
intercepted telephone call to SCP-1357 using the number from the 
pamphlet provided with every delivery of SCP-1357-B. One of the 
voices has been positively identified as that belonging to Hailey 
Fredricks. 


Hailey: Hello, you've reached Playland, the perfect place 
for family fun! How may | help you? 


Unidentified Male Voice: | want my daughter back. 


Hailey: I'm sorry sir, but I'm afraid your daughter wanted 
to stay with us. You can always visit, though. Just let us 
know and we'll send you two complementary tickets! | 
think she wants to stay, though.

SCP-1358: Northern Lights 


Item #: SCP-1358 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: The perimeter of SCP-1358 is 
to be fenced off and patrolled from 1930 to 07301 by guards dressed 
in local police uniforms, who are to rotate every three and a half 
hours. Any sign of wear is to be repaired immediately. Unauthorized 
personnel are to be informed the area is restricted and ordered to 
leave; those reluctant to do so are to be detained for questioning. In 
the event that SCP-1358 is entered for any reason, personnel are to 
carry omnidirectional flashlights. Instances of SCP-1358-1 that stray 
within five (5) meters of the perimeter are to be exposed to 
floodlights until retreat or disappearance. 


Description: SCP-1358 is an area of land square kilometers, 
located in , Canada. It is heavily forested, and experiences 
snowfall % of the year. For the majority of the day, SCP-1358 lacks 
any anomalous properties. From 1930 to 0730, SCP-1358 becomes 
inhabited by entities henceforth referred to as SCP-1358-1. 


SCP-1358-1 appear to be animated, illuminated outlines of 
humanoid figures. They display signs of intelligence, occasionally 
performing coordinated and complex movements; however, 
instances of SCP-1358-1 usually appear to wander aimlessly 
throughout the area of SCP-1358. All attempts to communicate with 
SCP-1358-1 have been met with hostility, and have otherwise been 
deemed a failure. No further attempts to communicate are planned 
at this time. 


At 0630, all entities freeze in place. As the sun rises, the illumination 
of the entities appears to wane, the outlines blurring until 
SCP-1358-1 resemble solid masses of dim light. By 0730, all 
instances of SCP-1358-1 have faded completely. This effect can 
also be replicated with artificial light, although to a lesser degree, 


and will usually provoke the entity to retreat before disappearance. 


SCP-1358-1 display the ability to locate human life anywhere within 
the area of SCP-1358. In the event of human introduction into the 
area, all entities active within SCP-1358 converge on a subject until 
making contact. Subjects who come in contact with SCP-1358-1 
involuntarily tense up, effectively paralyzing them. Instances of 
SCP-1358-1 then begin climbing up onto each others’ shoulders, 
until level with the apex of the closest tree. The subject is then 
transported up this "ladder" and placed at the peak of the tree, 
where they remain until vanishing along with SCP-1358-1. This is 
unique to humans: entities ignore all other fauna introduced to the 
area. How either the entities or the subject retain their balance is 
unknown at this time. 


Addendum 1358-A: Reports of unusual behavior by SCP-1358-1. 


* 04/12/1989: All instances of SCP-1358-1 materialized on the 
tops of trees, and remained stationary until disappearance. 
Humans introduced into the area were ignored. 


11/23/1992: At 0230, all instances of SCP-1358-1 joined 
hands and surrounded the nearest tree. At 0448, all instances 
of SCP-1358-1 disappeared spontaneously. 


01/15/1997: At 1830, guards on duty reported hearing 
whispering. SCP-1358-1 did not appear until 0247. At 0300, 
all instances of SCP-1358-1 became stationary and appeared 
to look up, remaining this way until disappearance. Reports of 
whispering continued until 0812. 


07/09/2002: At 2237, all instances of SCP-1358-1 formed 
ladders similar to those during human interaction. No human 
presence was detected inside the zone. At 0012, all ladders 
began to converge on a central location. Once together, all 
ladders fell backwards, and remained stationary on the ground 
until disappearance. 


12/09/2002: SCP-1358-1 did not appear. At 0730, continuous 
screaming was heard from within SCP-1358. Upon 
investigation, a man later identified as D-39411 was found at 


the top of a tree. At 0751, three (3) minutes after locating the 
source of the screaming, D-39411 stopped screaming and fell 
from the tree. Autopsy revealed D-39411 died from a skull 
fracture.

SCP-1359: Indulgence in Flesh 


Item #: SCP-1359 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1359 and accurate 
pictographic depictions thereof may only be observed remotely, by 
physically-restrained D-Class personnel. Any organism, including 
aforementioned D-Class personnel, that does visually observe 
SCP-1359 or an accurate pictographic depiction thereof, or attempts 
to enter SCP-1359's containment, is to be restrained and, at project 
staff discretion, either terminated or, once no longer visually 
observing SCP-1359 or accurate pictographic depiction thereof, 
administered a class C amnestic. As an additional precaution, any 
non-D-Class personnel assigned to SCP-1359 who are exposed to 
its effect are to be reassigned to a different project.
