SCP-3226 for experimentation. Prior to any testing of SCP-3226, 
written authorization must be provided by a researcher currently 

assigned to the object. 


Description: SCP-3226 is a pair of plastic headphones with a 
purple matte finish. A yellow graphic of a smiling skull is present on 
the outside of each speaker. SCP-3226 does not possess any 
identifiable method of audio input. Power is supplied by a pair of 
AAA batteries housed in a compartment over the left soeaker; an on/ 
off switch is present on this compartment. 


The box SCP-3226 was originally packaged in promotes the 
contents as "HEADBONES", subtitled with the text: "Hear What Your 
Skeleton Has To Say!!". No information pertaining to a manufacturer 
is present. The back of the box is printed with the following: 


X-rays let you see bones, but haven't you and your 
friends always wanted to HEAR them?! Now you can 
with HEADBONES™, the only way to hear what your 
skeleton has to say!! Just put them on, flip the switch, 
and you'll finally live the dream of listening to the 
AWESOME SOUNDS that all-natural bones make!! 


Your bones are SPECIAL, because no one else has your 
bones!! What better way to get that nice, relaxing tingle 


down your spine than to listen to something you'll 
ALWAYS have around you?! 


Don't be a LAZY BONES!! Try on a pair of 
HEADBONES™ today!! 


When SCP-3226 is powered on and worn, its wearer perceives a 
loud grating sound coming from all moving human skeletal joints 
within 20 meters, including their own. 


Sounds heard while wearing SCP-3226 cannot be detected with 
external instruments and seem to exist only in the mind of the 
wearer. Larger joints (e.g., knee joints) produce louder sounds than 
smaller joints (e.g., finger joints). The sound has been described by 
test subjects as akin to "nails on a chalkboard" or a "rusted door 
hinge", typically causing distress or mild annoyance but in some 
cases has resulted in severe nausea and headaches. 


If a wearer has worn SCP-3226 consistently for an extended period 
of time without removal,! the individual will perceive the motion of 
any nearby mandible joints (including their own) as shrill soeech 
containing complaints of excess warmth and being smothered. 
Speech ceases with cessation of mandible movement. (Revised, 
see addenda.) 


In several cases, wearers have additionally reported hearing 
sensual moans and other "erotic noises" originating from nearby 
skeletal remains. When such vocalizations can be heard via 
SCP-3226, the object will vibrate intensely until worn by a human or 
distanced from the remains (see addenda for experimental 
observations). 


Addendum SCP-3226-1: Example experimentation involving 
SCP-3226 in close proximity to remains of a deceased human 
individual. 


Experiment SCP-3226-14 involves a single D-Class personnel 
member, D-4689, stationed in a cell below a soundproofed single- 
chamber crematorium oven housing a nonanomalous corpse. 
During the experiment there are no other personnel within a 20 
meter radius of D-4689; the experimental room is monitored via 


CCTV cameras. 


D-4689 is fully restrained (bodily and with additional wire support at 
the jaw) to prevent joint motion except at right wrist. D-4689 is 
instructed to listen to sounds from SCP-3226, and to raise his right 
hand upon hearing any recognizable speech. D-4689 does this 
approximately 2 hours after SCP-3226 is turned on. 30 minutes 
later, the crematorium oven is remotely activated. After another 30 
minutes, SCP-3226 is removed and D-4689 is unrestrained and 
interviewed. 


The following is a portion of the post-experiment interview transcript 
of subject D-4689. 


<Begin Log, skip to 00h-03m-01s> 


D-4689: For hours and hours there was just this... 
scraping sound. | heard it each time | breathed in or out. 
| think my ribs felt a little weird then. Kind of shivery and 
tingly, but not in a great way. 


Dr. K_ : At approximately two hours in you raised your 
right hand. What do you recall hearing then? 


D-4689: There was this nasty voice all the sudden. Kinda 
like the scraping noise, but suddenly it was words. Kept 
saying it was all wrapped up in something... Christ. And 
my wrist made an awful scrapey sound too when | 
moved it. 


Dr. K :Do you remember its exact words? 


D-4689: Yeah... Yeah, it said "All wrapped up. Let’s take 
it off." Just those two sentences over and over for a few 
minutes. Sounded really close up, like it was inside my 
head. Made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. 
Then it... changed. 


Dr. K_ : Please continue. 


D-4689: It went quiet for a little while. | thought it was 
over, but then it started again. It still sounded awful, but | 


think it was... satisfied? Relaxed? Started saying, "Oh 
yeah" and moaning over and over 'til the headphones cut 
out. Never said anything else. [pause] | really don’t want 
to do this test again. 


Dr. K_: Thank you for your cooperation.

Addendum SCP-3226-2: During a transfer from containment at 
Site- to the recently renovated Site- , SCP-3226 was noted to 
vibrate intensely while the Foundation motorcade passed through 
the intersection of and in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The 
object’s power switch was in the off position at this time. 


Two days later, Dr. K and field agents returned to the intersection 
with SCP-3226 under the guise of road workers replacing a 
damaged water pipe. SCP-3226 again vibrated with frequency 
increasing with proximity to the intersection’s center. Dr. K donned 
and activated SCP-3226, upon which vibration ceased and a 
“flirtatious beckoning” voice was heard instructing Dr. K to “come 
over” and “get naked with me” while moaning intermittently. 


Skeletal remains of a 30-40 year old man, estimated to have been 
buried for 20 years, were found approximately 1.5 meters beneath 
the intersection’s center. After in situ analysis showed the remains to 
be nonanomalous, local police were notified of their presence. 


Use of SCP-3226 for Foundation recovery missions is pending 
approval. 


Addendum SCP-3226-3: On 15/04/2013, Dr. K_ received the 
following letter at her personal residence. No return address was 
present and attempts to identify the sender have thus far been 
unsuccessful. Of note, the envelope the letter was sent in appeared 
to be clumsily-handled, with an additional excess of postage stamps.

SCP-3227: Dart Frog Flora 


Item #: SCP-3227 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: Approximately 1000 kg of live 
insects with high alkaline content and/or small animals are to be 
dropped into SCP-3227 on a bi-monthly basis via helicopter or 
drone. Instances of SCP-3227 are to be encompassed by electric 
fence and monitored at all times by security personnel, maintaining 
a distance of at least one kilometer from SCP-3227. Under no 
circumstances are humans to enter SCP-3227 without proper 
equipment. Due to the nature of SCP-3227, authorization to conduct 
research directly will only be granted in the week prior to the bi- 
monthly feeding. Should there be any issue with the harvesting 
equipment, repairs must be scheduled during the week prior to the 
bi-monthly feeding. 


Description: SCP-3227 is a 3x3 kilometer portion of jungle 
originally located on the East coast of Madagascar which is made 
entirely of the skin of the Dendrobatidae', colloquially known as the 
poison dart frog. The color of skin matches the natural color of the 
flora that it mimics. However, small black patterns that match those 
of the poison dart frog can still be seen. SCP-3227 is believed to be 
a single living organism, though the biology of SCP-3227 is 
unknown as attempts to cut deeper than one meter into SCP-3227 
have been consistently met with failure due to the increased toxicity 
of SCP-3227's deeper layers. Extreme decay of living and nonliving 
matter occurs when exposed to the toxins that reside one meter or 
deeper within SCP-3227. The toxicity of SCP-3227's interior has 
proven constant regardless of when it was last fed. 


Within SCP-3227, while there is nothing that resembles the fauna of 
Madagascar, a variety of flora both native and alien to the 
Madagascan rainforest can be found. While these ‘plants’ also 
consist entirely of poison dart frog skin, their toxicity levels tend to 


be significantly lower the farther from the ground it is. It is due to that 
discovery that samples taken of SCP-3227 tend to come from the 
top of its trees. 


SCP-3227's toxins work much in the same way as do those of the 
poison dart frogs. The toxicity of the skin reflects the amount of 
alkaloids that it takes in, most commonly through insects. Being cut 
off from its natural environment, SCP-3227 would slowly die without 
bi-monthly feedings. Creatures that are killed by SCP-3227 die from 
over-exposure of alkaline toxins, and proceed to rapidly decay into 
SCP-3227. When creatures with high alkaline content are consumed 
by SCP-3227, it results in SCP-3227's skin becoming more toxic 
than before. However, after approximately one month without 
consuming any alkaloids, SCP-3227's toxicity will begin to wane. 


For larger creatures, such as humans, SCP-3227's toxins cease 
being deadly on contact after a month and a half without feeding. 
Instead, direct contact with the toxins from SCP-3227 will only cause 
a burning sensation. However, prolonged exposure without proper 
equipment will result in sickness, fatigue, paralysis, and eventually 
death. 


SCP-3227, while normally docile, is able to protect itself or trap 
fleeing prey when aggravated. SCP-3227's primary mode of defense 
is through releasing concentrated toxins. If that fails, it is also able to 
use an appendage closely resembling the tongue of a frog. In 
emergencies, SCP-3227 will open a large amount of small holes on 
the ground, plants, and trees, where multiple frog tongues are able 
to shoot out. One tongue that was severed during incident XX47-B 
was measured at 15 meters in length, and microscopic analysis 
revealed millions of small needles containing alkaloid toxins 
covering the tongues surface. When provoked, up to thousands of 
tongues have been reported to emerge and weave a web around 
their target, immobilizing and poisoning them. 


Since the discovery of SCP-3227, the Foundation has used the 
alkaline toxins that secrete from SCP-3227 for numerous projects. 
The alkaloids have been extremely useful in the creation of 
amnestics, as well as biological weapons and assisting in the 
containment of various other SCPs. While containment is a top 
priority for SCP-3227, the Foundation has also made it a top priority 


to utilize SCP-3227 to its maximum potential. Currently, Dr. Martin is 
leading a research effort to establish a large scale farming operation 
for SCP-3227 on Site-118. 


SCP-3227 was originally discovered in 1967 by a group of 
independent researchers who wandered into the jungle in search of 
new species of fauna. Locals avoided the area due to the 
mysterious deaths that occurred within it, which lead the researchers 
to believe that the deaths were due to an undiscovered species. Of 
the twelve that entered, only five managed to escape. Those 
researchers were discovered by the Foundation and were 
subsequently brought in for questioning. 


In 1972, while a sample of SCP-3227 was being brought to Site-118 
via airplane along with several other Euclid class SCPs, there was 
an incident that resulted in a crash above the Talladega National 
Forrest in Alabama. Although the other SCPs were recovered 
successfully, the sample of SCP-3227 was not found. Five years 
later, reports of hikers going missing in the area near the crash led 
to a secondary investigation. It was discovered that the sample of 
SCP-3227 had managed to survive the crash and grow in the 
Talladega National Forrest, and was the exact size of the original. 
This instance of SCP-3227 contained all the same species of flora 
as the original. Attempts to remove this instance of SCP-3227 were 
initially met with failure and numerous casualties, however, the 
Foundation succeeded in removing SCP-3227 through the use of 
firebombs in July, 1978. Following this incident, humans were 
forbidden to interact with SCP-3227 in any destructive manner. 


+ Exploration Log 49B2A 
Conducted May 12th, 1973 


Description: Lead Researcher Arslan 
instructed seven D-Class personnel to attempt 
to cut down several of the trees within 
SCP-3227, and one additional D-Class to 
attempt to dig into SCP-3227. Each D-Class is 
armed with an axe, as well as a protective suit 
and gas mask. The D-Class with the task of 
digging was given a shovel. They were given 


English. Individuals who are to be given training in this language will 
benefit from a background in Spanish, Mandarin and/or Cantonese, 
and Haskell. 


SCP-411's ability to recall future events is hindered by his advanced 
biological age; events more than a few months into the future are 
often forgotten and the details of events in the near to immediate 
future are often vague and unclear. Events surrounding persons he 
is familiar with are often more clear but omissions are not 
uncommon. In addition, deviations from SCP-411's memories of the 
future cause SCP-411 significant mental harm and can often render 
him catatonic for days. Due to the potential for valuable data to be 
lost in this fashion, particularly as one recollection often triggers 
other more significant recollections, SCP-41 1's memories are only to 
be acted upon in the following situations: 


1. Risk of serious injury, security breach or death of the Founder. 
(Mandatory) 

2. Risk of K-class scenario. (Mandatory) 

3. Risk of Class 1 security breach. (Mandatory) 

4. Risk of death of O5 personnel. (Advised) 

5. Risk of significant and destructive SCP containment breach. 
(Advised) 

6. Risk of Class 2 security breach. (Suggested) 

7. Risk of multiple senior research staff deaths. (Suggested) 


While a full course of training is required to interact with SCP-411, 
the following guidelines should be followed if emergency meetings 
are required. 


1. From the viewpoint of SCP-411, your first meeting is your final 
meeting; distress or other heightened emotional states are not 
causes for concern. 

2. SCP-411 will reference events in your future as if they were in 
your past. Do not attempt to act on these events. 

3. SCP-411's perspective on an event is roughly opposite to that 
of a normal observer. 

4. SCP-411 will answer your questions before you ask them and 
will not recall any point in the conversation prior to your 
current question. Do not fail to ask questions SCP-411 has 
answered.
