the acquisition of SCP-3955-1 instances. 


Addendum | - Classification Summary: Field agents monitoring 
emergency services communications in the Pacific Northwest noted 
the deaths of 157 individuals on 2012/12/28. Autopsy reports 
indicated a universal time of death between 0300 and 0330 FST, 
with 142 cases ruled as cardiac arrest, 12 cases as previously 
undetected severe colo-rectal cancer, and 3 listed as "natural 
causes." Foundation investigation of 63 cases confirmed these 
findings, though the decedents were noted to have possessed 
marked physical conditioning and otherwise exemplary health; 
anomalous activity was not considered at the time. This event is now 
classified as Incident 3955-1. 


On 2013/01/10, emergency services reported 3,213 instances of 
death with similar ubiquitous timing as the previous event. MTF 
Zeta-95 ("Disciples of John") was mobilized under Misinformation 
Protocol IMOC-2 ("Misplaced Resources"), with the initial goal of 
isolation and containment of potentially affected persons, preceding 
investigations to identify probable anomalous cause. This event is 
now classified as Incident 3955-2. 


Within twelve hours, correlation between ownership of SCP-3955-1 
and death had been established. Affected living persons were 
administered Class B amnestics and standard retraining 
cognitohazard devices; further resources were granted to Zeta-95, 
and personnel were retasked to collect all distributed instances, as 
well as locate Markus Robinson, designated at this time as 
Pol-1524316. 


On 2013/01/12, personnel at the Multnomah County Inverness Jail 
requested immediate medical aid; twenty-six of the thirty-eight staff 
members had collapsed, apparently deceased. A unit of MTF 
Zeta-95 arrived on-scene sixteen minutes later. Deceased persons 
uniformly possessed instances of SCP-3955-1. Booking records 
showed a Markus Robinson had been arrested approximately six 
hours prior to the event; Pol-1524316 was taken into custody, and 
remained under sedation during examination and decontamination 
proceedings. Containment was facilitated by 1046 FST, and 
standard retraining administered. This event is now classified as 
Incident 3955-3. 


Over the course of investigation, 10,800 instances of SCP-3955-1 
were discovered, with 8,421 having been purchased; 500 were 
located in the apartment of SCP-3955. An initial release of 300 
instances appeared in Portland on 2012/06/10, with retailers 
possessing no records of their arrival or anticipated release; a 
subsequent distribution of 10,000 instances had appeared with 
similar apparent spontaneity on 2012/11/23, affecting retailers in 
Portland, as well as in Seattle, WA and Los Angeles, CA. Detailed 
purchase records were readily available, as the cost of the objects 
($3,900 - $4,250 USD) generally precluded the use of physical 
currency. 


Upon finding only the noted physiological traits, and detecting no 


apparent anomalous ability, SCP-3955 was allowed to emerge from 
anesthesia on 2013/01/19, and was detained in a standard 
humanoid containment chamber in Site-—64. SCP-3955 requested 
representation by the firm of Steven, Steven, and Stephen4, refusing 
subsequent attempts at communication; subject likewise refused all 
food and water, for a period lasting until 2013/01/26. No detrimental 
effects of this fast were noted 


At 0914 FST, 2013/01/26, SCP-3955 became extremely hostile, 
violently assaulting the viewing pane for six minutes before coming 
to an abrupt stop. 


<Begin Audio Log, Incident 3955-4> 


SCP-3955: 

Use of the device constituted acceptance of the enclosed 
terms of service documentation. You have not allowed 
me fair and proper representation, nor have you 
presented evidence of violation of the terms of service 
agreement by [unintelligible]>. | exercise the authority 
granted to me as executor thereof. 


Researchers investigating an instance of SCP-3955-1 
detected a tachyon flux of 0.03 Watts/m* centered on the 
object. Simultaneously, emergency services channels 
began reporting numerous instances of apparent cardiac 
arrest throughout affected areas. 


Dr. Laurel Armstrong, Site-64, Asst. Director of 
Psychiatric Research: 

| understand your concerns, but so far you have refused 
to communicate with our staff; we can't very well help 
you if you won't let us...Markus, is it? 


SCP-3955 responds rapidly in the unknown language for 
twenty-two seconds, ceasing communication as 
aerosolized trichloromethane is pumped into the 
containment chamber, following the breach. 


<End Log> 


SCP-3955 was moved to Isolation Chamber Alpha-7, and 
anesthesia was maintained as a temporary containment measure 
while further procedures were developed. Containment breach 
resulted in 4,816 civilian fatalities; widespread disbursal of Class-A 
amnestics was authorized at 1422 FST and concluded at 1719; 
Media Retraining Protocol 12-D was broadcast at 2345. 


The final instance of SCP-3955-1 was confirmed in custody at 1035 
FST the following day. At 1117, SCP-3955 emerged from 
anesthesia despite continued maintenance, and attacked attending 
personnel, crushing the larynx of Junior Researcher Philip Goldman. 
SCP-3955 was approximately twelve meters from the entrance of 
the chamber when it stumbled; video feed showed an onset of 
aging, apparent death, and rapid decomposition over 0.084 
seconds, resulting in skeletal remains, many of which sustained 
major damage upon impact with the floor. Instruments independently 
monitoring forty instances of SCP-3955-1 detected a tachyon flux of 
16.124 W/m4 uniform across all samples. Simultaneously, the 
following document appeared on the remains; video feed showed no 
method of delivery, with the note appearing between frames of 
footage. 


Markus Robinson {RTCT/3-4s391.34} 


Termination of your contract has been noted. We regret 
that you were ultimately dissatisfied with our services; in 
the future, please take advantage of the ample 
opportunities we provide to review documentation prior 
to acceptance. 


Per your instructions, remaining durations may be 
distributed to your immediate relatives; simply provide 
them with the device. 


We thank you for your business, and hope that you will 
choose us again in the future. 


Steven, Steven, and Stephens 
Temporal Contingency Agency 


Baseline-normative dating techniques indicated the remains of 


SCP-3955 to be 158,800+275 years old. Continued monitoring of 
SCP-3955-1 instances was ordered. 


Addendum 2: Foundation Paleontology Department Senior 
Researcher Sylvia Hernandez noted the similarities between 
SCP-3955 and the "Herto Man" remains discovered by Dr. Tim 
White, et. al., in Herto Bouri, Ethiopia; subsequent analysis 
confirmed a genetic match. All known Homo sapiens idaltu remains 
were brought to Foundation custody and replaced by facsimiles. 


Addendum 3: HMCL Supervisory Committee classified SCP-3955 
Neutralized on 2020/10/10. Non-archived SCP-3955-1 instances are 
scheduled for destruction on 2021/03/22.

SCP-3956: The Mealworm Song 


Item #: SCP-3956 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: At least one member of MTF 
Mu-33 ("Show-goers") must be present at all showings of musical 
productions in London's West End. If SCP-3956 manifests the 
theatre is to be sealed off until all mealworms have been removed 
and all civilians inside have been amnesticised. 


The acting leader of MTF Mu-33 will decide whether or not an 
attempt to capture SCP-3956-2 will be made based on the risk of 
civilian casualties. 


All Foundation personnel investigating SCP-3956 are to wear noise- 
canceling earmuffs. 


Description: SCP-3956 is an event that manifests in theatres found 
in the city of London. Thus far, SCP-3956 has only been observed 
during performances of musical theatre. 


The event lasts an average of 15 minutes and is identifiable by the 
following occurrences: 


« In the second act, an actor will sing an unscripted solo about 
mealworms for 2-3 minutes. The opening line is always, 
"Mmm, tasty mealworms". 

¢ During the solo, audience members who hear the song will be 
affected by an anomalous phenomenon. Several mealworms! 
will emerge from the ears of affected individuals; these 
mealworms will then approach the stage. In later 
manifestations, at least 1 mealworm will remain in the 
individual's ear. 

« At the conclusion of the mealworm song, the actor will gather 
and consume the mealworms on-stage. This typically takes 


approximately 10 minutes. 
* Once all mealworms are consumed the audience will applaud 
and the show will continue as normal. 


Individuals who hear the mealworm song live, designated 
SCP-3956-1, do not perceive the event as unusual and will instead 
react to SCP-3956 as though it is a normal part of the show. 


SCP-3956-2 is a 2.1-metre tall humanoid entity composed entirely of 
mealworms. It first appeared during the third manifestation of 
SCP-39562. Following this appearance, additional recurring events 
pertaining to SCP-3956 manifestations have been noted. 
SCP-3956-2 now enters the stage at a seemingly random point 
during the second act and will perform the song itself. An actor being 
present on the stage is no longer required. 


The first manifestation took place on 30/12/2016. Appearances are 
relatively sporadic, though seem to be increasing in frequency. A 
definite cause of SCP-3956 has not yet been determined.

Date: 14/02/2017 
Manifestation Number: 3 
Show Name: Wicked 


Description of events: The event began as normal, 
however once the consumption was complete 
SCP-3956-2 crawled out of Tracy —_'s3 mouth. 
SCP-3956-2 attempted to perform SCP-3956; 
SCP-3956-1 reacted poorly to this and directed several 
insults towards SCP-3956-2. This caused SCP-3956-2 to 
flee the stage.

Agent : [laughs] 
Dr. A. : What happened then? 


Agent : We got out as quickly as we 
could. No one can turn around, so we back 
out, all those eyes watching us. Staring... 


Dr. A.  : You were first out the door? 


Agent : Last in, first out. We all got out, 
for all the good it did. We thought we’d pulled it 
off. But the moment the containment unit rolled 
out the door... it... they... 


Dr. A. : What happened? 


Agent : You ever see films of explosive 
decompression? That’s what happened to it. 
Splattered itself all over the insides of the 
containment unit. And those cats, those 

awful cats. They howled. Then they rushed us. 


Dr. A. : Did you attempt to contain the 
breach? 


Agent : You’re kidding? Right? Two or 
three hundred of them? Not just the door, but 
the windows, dropping on us from the second 
floor. When | saw disappear under them, 
| just ran and locked myself in the van. I’m not 
proud of that... 


Dr. A.  : I’m not here to judge. I’m here to 
determine what happened, so it does not 
happen again. 


Agent : Well, you see what happened to 
me? That was one of them that got locked in 
with me. One. If you don’t reclassify these 
things Keter, you’re insane. 


Manifestation Number: 4 
Show Name: The Book of Mormon 


Description of events: SCP-3956-2 entered the stage 
slowly and looked at the audience several times. All 
other actors on stage stopped and observed 
SCP-3956-2. After 5 minutes, it performed SCP-3956. 
SCP-3956-1 reactions were mixed, with several 
audience members not applauding. At the end of the 
show, SCP-3956-2 returned to bow with the cast. 


Notes: The first attempt to capture SCP-3956-2 was 
made during this performance. Agent fireda 
tranquilliser dart into SCP-3956-2. A single mealworm 
was dislodged from and then consumed by SCP-3956-2. 


Date: 06/01/2018 
Manifestation Number: 9 
Show Name: Wicked 


Description of events: The song "No Good Deed" was 
cut completely from the show and replaced with 
SCP-3956. SCP-3956-2 was lowered onto the stage via 
the bubble device typically used by the character Glinda. 
SCP-3956 began as SCP-3956-2 descended. At the end 
of the consumption phase, SCP-3956-1 gave a full 
standing ovation. SCP-3956-2 returned to bow with the 
cast and performed an encore, causing another 
SCP-3956 event. After the show, SCP-3956-2 was 
sighted in the main lobby shaking hands with instances 
of SCP-3956-1. 


Notes: SCP-3956-2 approached Agent , the sole 
observer of this event, once the show had ended. It 
handed him a program with the message, "I've seen you 
at all my shows. Thank you for never giving up on me! - 
WORMS'’ written inside along with several mealworms. It 
then placed its mouth against his hand and exited the 


lobby. Agent later described SCP-3956-2 as "a 
talented showman".

SCP-3957: The Eternal Soviet Prison 


Item #: SCP-3957 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: Access to SCP-3957 is to be 
restricted to Foundation personnel. SCP-3957 is to be guarded by 
no less than 25 armed security officers at all times, with a half 
kilometer perimeter established to prevent any civilians from 
entering the immediate vicinity of SCP-3957. A cover story implying 
structural instability of the prison is to be disseminated among the 
local civilian populace. Civilians who breach the perimeter and reach 
SCP-3957 are to be detained immediately and turned over to 
Russian authorities for trespassing. Civilians who breach the 
perimeter and reach SCP-3957 or witness any testing are to be 
either terminated or given Class-A amnesiacs before being 
detained, at the discretion of the overseeing security officer. 


Description: SCP-3957 is the abandoned prison complex of 
Penitentiary, located north of Nyrob in Perm Krai, Russia. SCP-3957 
is in a slightly dilapidated state, with sections of the outer wall 
appearing worn and the presence of rust on the front doorway and 
outside window bars. Watchtowers surrounding SCP-3957 upon 
discovery were found to be in a state of disrepair’. 


All entrances to SCP-3957 are sealed and rendered inaccessible, 
save for the front entrance. The entrance to SCP-3957 is a steel 
double-door of unremarkable design with dimensions 2m x 3m x 
0.25m. The doorway to SCP-3957 has no door handles or knobs; 
the only way to open SCP-3957 is to enter a four-digit code ona 
keypad outside the door2. Anyone who enters the incorrect 
combination into the locking mechanism immediately vanishes, and 
is transported to the interior of SCP-3957 through unknown means. 
Upon entering the correct combination, the door will open on its 
own, revealing the interior. 


The interior of SCP-3957 is a dimly lit prison much larger than the 
exterior would suggest, with the cell block ranging to be 1 kilometer 
in length and 50 meters in width.
