The method by which SCP-471 gathers data is currently unknown, 
and is under investigation. 


Currently three (3) probes have been launched towards SCP-471 in 
the hopes of examining it more closely. See Test Log 471-931 for 
details. 


Addendum 471-01: While attempting to glean the purpose of the 
integer values identified by BOMB-2, the Foundation discovered a 
copy of the signal transmitted by SCP-471, much weaker and with 
an 88 minute delay, being transmitted back at Earth. Investigation 
revealed that SCP-471 was transmitting its signal in such a way that 
it was amplified by the magnetosphere of Jupiter and broadcast in 
all directions. The copied signal evaded detection because it 
blended in with the background static naturally produced by Jupiter. 
Further investigation into the possible interaction of this signal with 
SCP-2399 and other Jovian based anomalies is ongoing.

[END LOG] 


One (1) new note has been added on: 11 August, 2018 
So. 


By now, you’ve probably figured out that 
SCP-3632-1 is very real. We mostly call him 
Thoth at this point — containment procedure’s 
fallen apart, but can you really blame us? 


We should have recognized from the history 
records that Thoth has a penchant for setting 
traps, and we walked right into one he set. 
SCP-3632, the buildings, the entities — it was 
all elaborate bait he set for us, a means of 
transporting some kind of weaponized idea 
back to Earth. And we fell for it, because it was 


only a Safe anomaly and there were so many 
other, catastrophic, world-ending terrors we 
had to deal with on a daily basis. And here we 
are. Let that be a lesson to... well, who, really? 
There’s almost no one left. 


Humanity never stood a chance. The meme 
was across the planet in a matter of hours. We 
still have some colleagues holed up in Lunar 
Area-32, but it’s only a matter of time until they 
run out of supplies. In the end, there were no 
voracious reality-eaters, no walking pillars of 
flesh, just... a single, stupid meme that got 
past our filters, and suddenly the people we 
swore to protect entire population of Earth is 
roaming around, cawing and pecking at the 
ground. And lately, there have been other, 
more disturbing changes. 


If you're reading this — if at this point, by some 
miracle, you're still alive — you'll probably be 
reading this document, trying to figure out what 
went wrong. Well, we’re still alive too, and 
Thoth won’t see us coming. Come to Site-18. 
We're there, the birds and the not-quite- 
humans that managed to avoid the 
apocalypse, and we’ve got a plan. 


| can’t tell you if it’s a good one, but we’ve got 
a plan. 


Out of all the things that could have ended the 
world, | still can't believe it was fucking birds. 


-Dr. Frederick Hoygull, Avian Division Head

SCP-3633: I'm Right Behind Me 


Item #: SCP-3633 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3633 is to be kept in a 
standard safe-type anomalous locker. SCP-3633 is to be inspected 
once a day for new pictures. 


Description: SCP-3633 is a factory standard iPhone 5 with a 
cracked screen and significant burns to the internal workings. 
Though this should render the device inoperational, SCP-3633 is 
fully functional. SCP-3633 remains at 0% battery life regardless of 
useage or attempts at charging it. There are two contacts in the 
phone, one labeled "Me" and the other labeled "Behind Me", both of 
which have no functioning phone number. Persons viewing pictures 
on SCP-3633 express an unfounded feeling of being watched from 
behind. 


When SCP-3633's camera is activated, the screen display becomes 
too dark to distinguish any features from the live preview. This 
preview is occasionally interjected with still images, however these 
images are too blurry to accurately identify. Further analysis shows 
that the majority of the objects in the images are in contact with the 
camera lens. 


SCP-3633 has received a total of three calls while in containment: 
two from "Me" and one from "Behind Me". While the phone rang, the 
screen became unresponsive, and personnel were unable to answer 
the calls. A voicemail was left by "Behind Me", which consisted of 
three minutes of leaves rustling, followed by a ‘crack’. After this was 
fifteen seconds of a high pitch creak, followed by a mechanical 
clicking noise that ended the call. 


SCP-3633 was found on a desk in an abandoned apartment in 
Pittsburgh, along with several other anomalous objects (now 


classified as AO-9099 through AO-9108). The words "IN FRONT" 
were etched onto the desk next to SCP-3633. No records of the 
occupation of the apartment were found, although the landlord had 
financial compensation to suggest paid residence for over eight 
months. 


Addendum SCP-3633-1: Researchers attempted to communicate 
with "Me" and "Behind Me". The following is the results from these 
tests. Communications sent from SCP-3633 were sent to both 

"Behind Me" and "Me" in a group text and are labeled "SCP-3633". 


4:12 - SCP-3633: Hello? Is anyone here? 
4:12-Me: & 
4:12 - Behind Me: -> 
4:13 - SCP-3633: Who are you? 
4:15 - SCP-3633: What are you? 
4:22 - SCP-3633: Hello? 
11:47 - Behind Me: 
No further responses have been recorded. 


Addendum SCP-3633-2: At sporadic intervals, SCP-3633 began 
receiving texts from "Me" and "Behind Me" regardless of 
SCP-3633's cellular connection. These texts always appeared in 
pairs, with one of the contacts sending a picture with a caption, and 
the other contact sending a text. 


The text messages differed from the normal messaging format used 
previously by SCP-3633, however all screen shots of these texts 
created a picture of static. Therefore, transcriptions of the messages 
received from SCP-3633 are presented instead. The name of each 
file as well as the content of the messages was transcribed exactly, 
including replicable stylistic and aesthetic details.

SCP-3635: The Forgotten Archive 


Item #: SCP-3635 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3635 is to be contained in 
a Standard Security Locker. Personnel are forbidden from viewing 
the contents of SCP-3635; if viewed, Class-A amnestics are to be 
administered. Testing with SCP-3635 must be approved by at least 
one Level 3 researcher. 


Any personnel assigned to SCP-3635 who experience inconsistent 
memories compared to others and/or documentation are to notify 
the Site Director immediately. Should additional memories include 
documents or letters, personnel are to make every attempt to 
replicate them. 


UPDATE - 9/25/1996: All transcripts of recalls reported by 
SCP-3635-A are to be sent to the Historical Research Division for 
cross-examination with existing historical evidence. 


Description: SCP-3635 is an entirely blank photograph measuring 
roughly 9.5 cm by 13 cm in size. Testing of SCP-3635 suggests it is 
a Cabinet Card!. Reproductions of SCP-3635 through scanning or 

photography do not carry its anomalous effect. 


When exposed to SCP-3635 directly, the subject (designated 
SCP-3635-A) will begin to recall one or more events. A large 
proportion of subjects report a form of traumatic event, which in 
majority of cases leads to depression or anxiety. Class-B amnestics 
appear effective at counteracting these effects. Non-Fatal Type-| 
Memetic Hazards are known to be present in certain events, 
necessitating basic cautionary procedures. 


Most SCP-3635-generated memories share several fundamental 
characteristics, including interactions between anomalous entities 


(which, as of 9/25/1996, have included animals, plants, and 
inanimate objects) and a "green-suited" task force with unknown 
affiliations. The subject takes the role of an observer, and not as a 
member of this task force (with the exception of [REDACTED - 
LEVEL 4 CLEARANCE REQUIRED)).

Interview Extract #: D-3635-3 


D-3635-3: So, | remember the smell of horses, 
hay, the like. | think | was working near the 
barn that day. 


Interviewer: According to our documents, 
you've lived in an city your entire life. 


D-3635-3: Not me, you twat, the other me. 
That me lived off the farm since we were born. 
| don't think | ever gone more than a few miles 
from it. And yet all | can remember is that 
specific day. As... As | said, | was working by 
the barn, loading up some bales, and my wife 
was coming up to help me. 


Interviewer: Can you describe her? 


D-3635-3: Beauty, really. Gorgeous brown 
hair, smooth skin, green eyes... | always loved 
that about her. Not that | loved her for them, | 
just thought that they were a signal of 
something special about her- the way she 
could take your arm and lead you to the ends 
of the earth, it was magnificent... 


Interviewer: Did anything else happen? 
D-3635-3 pauses 


D-3635-3: That day, we were feeding the barn 
animals. | was about to finish up, when from 
across the barn, | heard her screaming. | ran 


Test Log 471-931 


For the length of each test, Observation Probe Delta-2 remained 
within the transmission cone, so as to observe any changes in the 
signal. 


Date: January , 200 


Description: A [REDACTED] model probe was launched towards 
SCP-471. It was to use a passive scanning system in order to more 
closely examine SCP-471, in the hope of better understanding its 
purpose and technology present. 19 minutes after activating, 
however, the probe experienced an electrical malfunction, causing 
its thrusters to misfire. It subsequently fell into a decaying orbit and 
was lost upon re-entry. 


Date: February , 200 


Description: A second [REDACTED] model probe was launched in 
an identical path to the first, and experienced an identical 
malfunction at approximately the same distance from SCP-471. It is 
theorized that SCP-471 possesses a defense mechanism to re- 
direct any artificial objects from approaching it, as the probability of 
the malfunctions being coincidental is effectively zero. 


Date: April , 200 


Description: A [REDACTED] model probe was launched towards 
SCP-471. It was equipped with specialized systems in order to make 
it more difficult to detect and more resilient to any malicious software 
infiltration attempts. The probe was launched in a path that brought 
it within 500 km of SCP-471, but not directly towards it, at which 
point the probe was to turn and head directly towards SCP-471. This 
appeared initially successful; however, once it came within 300 km 
of SCP-471, [DATA EXPUNGED}], resulting in the complete 
destruction of the probe and corruption of [REDACTED] database. 
Additionally, at the time of the incident, the signal emanating from 


over, and... her eyes were just gone. Nowhere 
to be seen. And... she just kept babbling 
incoherent nonsense... 


D-3635-3 sighs 

Interviewer: D-3635-3? 

D-3635-3: Can... Can we stop the interview? 
Interview Extract #: D-3635-7 

Interviewer: Tell me more about Frank. 


D-3635-7: Frank's always been a hothead. 
You could never get that guy to be happy, 
always mad at something or someone. Just an 
old, grumpy man. Anyways, | hear him 
screaming his god damn head off about some 
minor offense that I've committed against him, 
and his family, and his church or something. 


Interviewer: Did you do anything to make him 
upset? 


D-3635-7: Not that | can remember. As 
always. But, anyways, | step out on to my 
porch to tell him to cool his head off in the well, 
and that's when | notice that Frank was hell-of- 
a-lot different. One arm... well, it looked like a 
giant's arm that was plastered on to Frank's 
side. All pink and fleshy and... 


D-3635-7 shutters 


D-3635-7: | think it was growing as | watched 
it. 


Interviewer: Did anything else interesting 
happen? 


D-3635-7: Funny enough, something did. This 


group of soldiers jumped out of nowhere. 
Green uniforms, nothing I've ever seen before. 
They pushed me down as | saw them go after 
Frank with their bayonets. Man, he was roarin' 
and bleeding some strange black goo... 
Horrible. 


Interview Extract #: D-3635-9 


D-3635-9: | first remember writing, a letter, 
yeah. It was late at night, and really hot. | was 
using these old-fashioned looking gas lamps 
and getting really tired. 


Interviewer: Did you observe anything 
abnormal? 


D-3635-9: | suppose you could say that. 
Freaked me the hell out. | got this feeling | was 
being watched and there was this man... 
thing... standing in the doorway between my 
bedroom and the kitchen. Not moving, it 
looked like a man, but | think it was built out of 
porcelain. It had a painted and smiling face 
and these really ragged loose trousers. You 
know, | don't think it was actually standing up, 
supported by its legs | mean, it looked like it 
was hanging from the neck by some invisible 
rope. 


Interviewer: What happened next? 


D-3635-9: It spoke, without moving it's mouth. 
| think it said something along the lines of 
"Sorry for the intrusion, but do you mind if you 
could spare a cup of tea?". Really creepy, it 
sounded like a old man with a smoking habit. 


Interviewer: Did anything else happen? 


D-3635-9: We must have stared at each other
