65° (SCP-1650-1-C): unknown oil, clear. SCP-1650-1-C 
shows no anomalous properties unless used to fuel a light 
source. When thus used, SCP-1650-1-C will burn for a period 
of twenty-four (24) to sixty-three (63) hours. The burn process 
does not produce heat and does not require oxygen. 


90° (SCP-1650-1-D): unknown oil, red. When applied to 
inorganic matter, SCP-1650-1-D acts as a preservative (e.g. 
preventing rust when applied on metal). When applied to living 
organic matter, SCP-1650-1-D possess mild corrosive 
qualities. SCP-1650-1-D has no effect on dead organic matter, 
which can be used to safely apply it to other materials. Of note 
is SCP-1650-1-D's effect on blood: SCP-1650-1-D seemingly 
erases any trace of blood it comes into contact with (with a 
ratio of 10cc of oil to 500cc of blood). Because of this, 
ingestion or injection of any significant amount of 
SCP-1650-1-D will quickly become fatal due to rapid 
exsanguination. If not applied to inorganic material, 
SCP-1650-1-D will lose its anomalous properties within thirty 
(30) seconds of being poured from SCP-1650. Tests on 
SCP-1650-1-D revealed traces of Helichrysum sanguineum 
bloom. 


SCP-1650 is capable of producing approximately two (2) liters of 
each type of oil before running out, and will replenish its reservoirs 
after being returned to an upright position for a period of twenty- 
eight (28) hours. 


SCP-1650 first came to the Foundation's attention when Agent _ , 
embedded in the offices of Marshall, Carter and Dark Ltd. in ; 
reported an upcoming transaction between MC&D and a group 
identifying itself as the "Horizon Initiative." While the Foundation 
possesses limited information about this group, it was discovered 
that it is covertly sponsored by several major religions. Agent was 
able to discover the location of the transaction and Mobile Task 
Force Alpha-12 ("Flatheads") was dispatched to intercept it and 
detain the persons involved. Upon arrival, MTF Alpha-12 
apprehended all parties without incident. SCP-1650, the item the HI 


was attempting to purchase, was recovered. 


Addendum SCP-1650-A: The following is the interrogation log of a 
captured member of the Horizon Initiative, who identified himself as 
Father : 


+ Interrogation Log 
Interviewed: 
Interviewer: Agent 


Foreword: was brought to Site- 
following the recovery of SCP-1650. Following 
his arrival, he asked to discuss a "mutually 
beneficial arrangement" between the 
Foundation and the HI. Agent was 
instructed to act with prudence in regards to 

's terms in order to gain information. 


<Begin Log> 


Agent : You said you had something to 
discuss with us? 


: Indeed. | wish to discuss the terms 
offered by the Horizon Initiative. 


Agent : Terms? 


: My superiors have prepared me for 
the contingency of the deal being intercepted 
by Foundation operatives, and provided me 
with a list of terms that, if followed, will ensure 
full cooperation on behalf of the Initiative in all 
future endeavors. 


Agent : And those terms are? 


: First and foremost, the Initiative will 
require that the holy relic you confiscated from 
us be returned. While we respect your 


attempts of containing dangerous phenomena, 
this relic cannot stay in your hands. It is a 
sacred object, the cleanser and the provider 
for the Temple itself. Next, we require that the 
Foundation relinquish the following holy relics 
already in its possession to Initiative hands: 
[REDACTED], as well as the immediate 
destruction of the following heretical and 
demonic objects: [REDACTED]. In exchange, 
the Initiative is willing to share all of its 
resources and information concerning any 
future findings and assist in battling the various 
heresies corrupting God's good earth to the 
Foundation's satisfaction. 


Agent : I'm not exactly sure how much you 
know about us, Father, but | can tell you right 
now those terms are extremely problematic. 


: I'm sorry, but the terms are non- 
negotiable. Surely you could see the benefits 
of such an arrangement? The Initiative and the 
Foundation needn't be enemies; we share the 
same goals, after all. We both wish mankind to 
be safe from the evils of the beyond. Your 
attempt of preserving man's flesh is admirable, 
but you neglect his soul! Let us help you, 
please. 


Agent : I'll have to discuss this with my 
superiors, you understand. This might take a 
while. 


: | was told only to accept an 
immediate response. My superiors do not trust 
you. 


Agent : You have to understand, those 
things take time. You're asking for a lot, you 
know. 


: [angrily] They told me! They told me 
you would do this! Try to string me along, 
make me complacent! | admit, | did not expect 
this, | thought you were better than that! 
Perhaps | should have. Perhaps you are not 
what | thought you were. [to himself] Pactum 
serva, 


Agent : Come now, you are being 
unreasonable. 


: |am sorry it must come to this, but 
my conviction is clear, as are my orders. If you 
refused our terms, it means you have fallen 
too far. It appears that is the case, and so 
there is only one thing left to say: Judges 
16:30.2 


<End Log> 


Closing Statement: At this moment, 
appeared to have triggered an explosive 
device, killing himself and Agent and 
severely damaging the interrogation room. 
Traces of an unknown explosive and a voice 
activation system which failed to be detected 
by the screening process were found in 

remains. Security details on the objects 

mentioned were updated following 

this incident. 


Footnotes 

1. [ILLEGIBLE] And thus spoke the Lord to [ILLEGIBLE] Pour the oil 
upon your flesh and go amidst the [ILLEGIBLE] with the Lord's 
name upon your lips, and His wrath and fury shall [ILLEGIBLE] The 
Blood of the Maccabees shall purify His House behind you, for all 
eternity. 

2. And Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines.” Then he 
bowed with all his strength, and the house fell upon the lords and 
upon all the people who were in it. So the dead whom he killed at his 
death were more than those whom he had killed during his life..

SCP-1651: Carnival Prize 


Item #: SCP-1651 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1651 is to be held ina 
standard containment locker, located within Site-77. Physical 
contact with SCP-1651 is not permitted for Foundation personnel, as 
this will trigger the anomalous effect. Standard testing is permitted 
throughout the year, with special testing authorized for days where it 
displays its additional anomaly. 


Description: SCP-1651 is a stuffed toy resembling a stylized 
elephant. It is well worn and has six (6) holes that were stitched prior 
to containment. The head and one leg appear to have been 
deliberately torn off and stitched back onto the main body. The 
name "SETH" has been stitched onto SCP-1651's chest. 


Contact with SCP-1651 causes a cognition-affecting anomaly to 
occur. Subjects will perceive themselves in a midway, watching as a 
young adult male wins a carnival prize for a young woman. This 
event will be viewed as though the subject were a third party at the 
event, instead of being through the viewpoint of the subject receiving 
or giving the gift. This effect will last for four (4) minutes and thirty- 
four (34) seconds, or until the subject ceases contact with 
SCP-1651. 


The young woman and man depicted in SCP-1651 have been 
identified as Lucy and Seth Bronson, a married couple formerly 
located in Miami, Florida. Seth Bronson was killed on 5/24/1976, in 
an automobile accident returning from an unknown location. Lucy 
Bronson was reported as a missing person on 10/20/1976. She is 
currently regarded as a person of interest. 


If SCP-1651 is contacted on certain days through the year, the 
anomalous effect will show a different scene. There are six (6) days 


through the year when SCP-1651 displays this effect, and each of 
these days has a unique perspective. During the time SCP-1651 has 
been in containment, there have been no alterations to this 
schedule. 


Date (iM/D) SCP-1651 effect 

05/24 The normal effect occurs, 
followed by a sudden perspective 
shift to Lucy and Seth Bronson 
driving home, discussing a circus. 
They appear to be conversing 
inaudibly, and will continue to do 
so until five (5) minutes and 
twenty-three (23) seconds after 
the effects initiation, when there is 
a sudden flash of light 
accompanied by the sounds of an 
automobile accident. 

06/03 A subject identified as Lucy 
Bronson appears distraught, and 
is clinging to SCP-1651 outside of 
a shut door in what appears to be 
a residential home. This persists 
for exactly ten (10) minutes. 
Initially, she appears to be 
distraught. After five (5) minutes, 
she appears to become affected 
by SCP-1651, and acts out her 
motions for the normal effect 
while staying seated. 

07/12 Through the perspective of 
SCP-1651, Bronson 
communicates various details 
about her day, which appears to 
have been spent within the home, 
and mentions that she is pleased 
he has recovered from his 
injuries. Notably, the subject 
appears to refer to SCP-1651 as 
"Seth" repeatedly. After 


08/08 


10/09 


11/20 


SCP-1651 fails to respond to her, 
she becomes distraught, and 
begins to shout argumentative 
phrases at SCP-1651. Ends 
approximately seven (7) minutes 
after initiation, when SCP-1651's 
head is torn off. 

Nine (9) minutes of Lucy Bronson 
stitching SCP-1651 back 
together, apologizing and 
referring to SCP-1651 as "Seth." 
Notably, several new holes have 
been stitched into SCP-1651. 
These appear to correspond with 
injuries sustained by Seth 
Bronson which resulted in his 
death. 

Static viewpoint of SCP-1651, 
positioned in front of a 
refrigerator. The sound of 
someone moving things in the 
background can be heard, 
followed by a slamming door. 
View of Seth Bronson's head 
sewed to SCP-1651's body in 
place of its normal head. Appears 
to reciprocate the conversation 
seen on 07/12, and becomes 
confused when Lucy becomes 
violent.

SCP-1652: Mercy in the Storm 


Item #: SCP-1652 
Object Class: Safe Euclid (See Incident Report 1652-1) 


Special Containment Procedures: Due to the immobility of 
SCP-1652, a perimeter of 30 meters is to be secured around 
SCP-1652, under the guise of training grounds for military purposes. 
The perimeter of SCP-1652 is to be surrounded by a 3-meter 
barbwire fence. Access to SCP-1652 is to be authorized by Level 4 
personnel. Instances of SCP-1652-1 are to be treated accordingly, 
then released. 


Description: SCP-1652 is a field near Dresden, Tennessee, 
coordinates 36.281 238,-88.684582. SCP-1652 itself shows no 
immediate anomalous properties. During a period of four hours each 
day, gunshots and explosions will be heard within a 15 meter radius 
of SCP-1652. The sounds have no discernible source, and cannot 
be picked up by electronic devices. 


SCP-1652 is filled with Lolium perenne (Ryegrass), that shows no 
anomalous properties. Cutting the grass at a length of 0.7 meters or 
lower will cease anomalous activity in that area. Grass removed and 
regrown outside of SCP-1652 shows no anomalous properties. 


SCP-1652-1 refers to a variety of wild dogs that live inside 
SCP-1652. Any attempt to find instances of SCP-1652-1 has 
resulted in failure, unless anomalous properties have already taken 
effect. Instances of SCP-1652-1 will appear as a number of dog 
breeds, and only larger breeds of dogs have been observed. 


After the four hour cycle of gunshots and explosions in SCP-1652, 
instances of SCP-1652-1 will exit SCP-1652. Up to twelve instances 
of SCP-1652-1 have been observed during this time. Instances of 
SCP-1652-1 who leave SCP-1652 will show symptoms and wounds 
correlating to weapons used during World War I. 


Injuries on instances of SCP-1652-1 include: 


¢ Bullet holes including ammunition 

¢ Lead poisoning 

* respiratory inflammation caused by mustard gas exposure 
¢ Anumber of irritated blisters 

¢ Stab wounds correlating with bayonets 


Bullets found inside instances of SCP-1652-1 are extremely 
corroded, and show no signs of being shot at any recent time. 
Bullets recovered are consistent with ammunition commonly used 
during World War I. 


Instances of SCP-1652-1 show no biological anomalies, and will 
wander around SCP-1652 until exsanguination occurs or treatment 
has been applied. Instances of SCP-1652-1 who are treated for 
wounds will attempt to escape into SCP-1652. 

Autopsy of deceased instances of SCP-1652-1 show no 
differentiation from normal domesticated dogs. Instances of 
SCP-1652-1 appear to average around six years of age. 


After a period of 2 days outside of SCP-1652, an instance of 
SCP-1652-1 will begin to decompose, typically expiring after 15 to 
21 hours. State of decay over 3 days is equivalent to years of 
elapsed time. Decaying instances of SCP-1652-1 show extreme 
discomfort until provided with the chance to return to SCP-1652. 


Incident Report 1652-1: 
At / /19 , aman wearing a British pattern service dress uniform fled 
SCP-1652. This instance is to be referred to as SCP-1652-2. 
SCP-1652-2 carried a Short Magazine Lee-Enfield Mk III along with 
a Webley revolver. SCP-1652-2 bore several injuries, including 
broken bones, gunshot wounds, and blisters. SCP-1652-2 was 
reluctant to give information, but revealed that he was deployed to 

, France. SCP-1652-2 began to deteriorate in health as he 
began to decompose at arate 6% faster than instances of 
SCP-1652-1. SCP-1652-2 expired within 5 hours of recovery.

SCP-1653: | Want 


Item #: SCP-1653 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1653-A is to be contained 
in a form-fitting shipping crate lined with impact-resistant packaging 
foam, followed by a layer of lead. The top of the crate is to be 
independently capable of being opened to allow light in if needed. 
SCP-1653-A is not to be exposed to an unprotected wireless 
network. 


SCP-1653-B are to be wrapped in plastic and submerged in 
concrete blocks in a containment chamber on any floor below the 
one where SCP-1653-A is kept. If they are a necessity, any inclined 
walkways connecting said floors are to be inclined greater than 20°, 
though a total lack of inclined walkways is strongly recommended. 
SCP-1653-B are not to be given access to SCP-1653-A. 


Description: SCP-1653-A is a cylindrical column of solid glass, 
310 cm tall by 31.8 cm in diameter. Its surface is etched with 8 
shallow, smooth rows of a square Greek spiral design which thread 
around it at a 30° angle from horizontal. It is inanimate. 


SCP-1653-A-1 is a flattened cylindrical column of human brain 
tissue, 20.3 cm tall by 27.6 cm in diameter. It is situated inside 
SCP-1653-A, 5 cm below its top surface and completely enclosed in 
glass. Its structure is radially symmetric. SCP-1653-A-1 has the 
remnants of a brainstem and spinal cord wrapped underneath it. 
Additionally, its pineal gland is exposed as a flat circle at the top and 
apparently acts as its sole sensory organ. SCP-1653-A-1 is alive 
and displays neural activity consistent with that of a human. How 
SCP-1653-A-1 receives nutrition is unknown, although increasing its 
exposure to overhead light increases its neural activity. 


SCP-1653-A is capable of acquiring a connection to the Internet to a
