SCP-3478: A human-shaped hole to the meat 
dimension 


Item #: SCP-3478 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3478 is contained by the 
clamping and sedating apparatus in a containment chamber at 
Site-74. Every 4 hours, 4 doses of sedative compound H12 must be 
delivered into SCP-3478 via the apparatus in its chamber. If any of 
the sedative injectors anchored to the other side of SCP-3478 
become damaged or impaired they must be repaired or replaced as 
soon as possible via remote-piloted drone inserted through 
SCP-3478. The clamping device in the containment chamber is to 
be inspected every 2 weeks and maintenance performed as 
required. 


A squad of Site-74's security personnel must be kept on alert and 
armed with insecticide B15 in case SCP-3478-A or SCP-3478-B 
instances attempt to emerge from the anomaly. In the event of a 
containment breach of SCP-3478, any forces attempting to 
recontain it must be armed with sedative compound H12 or 
equivalent and a mobile clamping rig to safely transport the anomaly 
to a containment facility. 


Description: SCP-3478 is a humanoid spatial anomaly that stands 
approximately 2m tall and possesses average human proportions. 
SCP-3478 can only be detected visually from the front or back. 
When viewed from the front or the back, an observer will see 
SCP-3478 as a human-shaped patch of nonterrestrial soace. The 
ground in this space has the same composition as human muscle 
tissue and the sky has a strong green-yellow tint. The landscape on 
the other side of SCP-3478 seems entirely natural with no purpose- 
built structures visible. Fauna has been observed on the other side 
of SCP-3478, see Exploration Log 3478-01 for details. When viewed 


from the side, SCP-3478 is detectable as a thin haze. 


SCP-3478 is capable of deforming its edges to move under its own 
power as a human would. It has not been observed to change its 
shape from its current humanoid configuration. The edges of the 
anomaly can be gripped by conventional means, but when the 
anomaly is moving under its own power these edges are capable of 
‘cutting’ any material tested so far. This cutting action is due to 
matter passing through one side of the anomaly and not the other, 
separated by the edge of the anomaly. 


SCP-3478 displays sentience, as documented in the Recovery Log 
and Incident Report 3478-1. No puzzle-solving trials have been 
attempted yet due to the risk of a containment breach. Due to 
SCP-3478's anomalous cutting properties, containment so far has 
been achieved by keeping SCP-3478 sedated and immobile. This 
has been accomplished by anchoring sedative injectors into the 
landscape on the other side of the anomaly and supplying sedatives 
as explained in the Special Containment Procedures. 


SCP-3478-A and SCP-3478-B designate the larval and adult stages 
respectively of an organism encountered on the other side of 
SCP-3478, superficially related to the larvae of the genus 
Cochliomyia. SCP-3478-A instances are maggot-like and 
approximately 2m long. SCP-3478-B instances resemble 2m long 
flies, resembling the adult forms of the genus Cochliomyia. See 
Exploration Log 3478-01 for details. 


Recovery Log: The Foundation was alerted to the existence of 
SCP-3478 on 10/08/15 when Foundation intelligence sources 
documented an incident in Harrisburg, PA. Local law enforcement 
were alerted to a robbery in progress at a hardware store and 
informed that the perpetrator was able to walk through walls. 
Harrisburg PD encountered SCP-3478 after it had exited the 
hardware store, apparently having stolen several cans of insecticide. 
The officers attempted to apprehend SCP-3478, resulting in its 
escape and the severing of one officer's right arm below the elbow. 
The limb was not recovered. Foundation assets arrived on-scene 
the next day and confronted SCP-3478 as it was leaving the scene 
of a second robbery where the anomaly was observed passing cans 
of insecticide through itself. The task force was eventually able to 


secure the object in a mobile clamping rig for transport to Site-74. 
The police officers and shop owners involved were amnesticized 
and provided with a cover story. Repair work was financed in order 
to cover up residual evidence of the incident. 


Exploration Log 3478-01: On 11/21/15 an aerial drone was 
inserted through SCP-3478 to explore the other side of the anomaly. 


00:00 The drone plants a signal relay on the other side 
of SCP-3478 to ensure that control signals have 
sufficient range during exploration. 


00:02 Operators spend 2 minutes on a systems check 
and initial analysis. The drone is unable to detect any 
changes in physical laws on the other side of SCP-3478. 
There is no sign of the insecticide or any debris from the 
two robberies in the immediate vicinity of the anomaly. 
Approximately 1m away from SCP-3478's location in the 
other dimension is a functioning humanoid circulatory 
and nervous system embedded in the muscle tissue, 
oriented with the head towards SCP-3478. The brain 
appears to be 30% larger than that of an average adult 
human. The proportions are otherwise consistent with 
those of a 2m-tall human. The drone collects nearby 
tissue samples. 


00:07 The drone proceeds away from the anomaly. The 
landscape consists of rolling hills of fleshy tissue and the 
coloration of the sky remains yellow-green. A slight 
tremor is detected in the ground. 


00:12 The drone approaches a patch of what appears to 
be dark brown grass. On closer inspection this is 
revealed to be 0.5mm-1.5mm thick strands of hair. The 
drone collects a sample for study. 


00:38 The drone approaches a large protuberance in the 
landscape projecting approximately 30m upwards. The 
protuberance is riddled with cavities and growths. As the 
drone observes these growths, one of them ruptures and 
an instance of SCP-3478-A falls to the ground. These 


still have enough time to reasonably guarantee a safe exit from the 
facility. 


Auditory and visual hallucinations (including spectral voices, 
bleeding walls, and poltergeist activity) are considered normal. Lack 
of same is cause for concern. Personnel are encouraged not to 
investigate any dead bodies, supernatural activity, or rotting 
remains. 


« SCP-449 | SCP-450 | SCP-451 » 


growths and cavities are theorized to be due toa 
process analogous to cutaneous myiasis. The operators 
attempt to pilot the drone closer for further examination 
when the drone detects a loud buzzing sound 
approaching. The source of the sound is determined to 
be three instances of SCP-3478-B rapidly approaching 
the drone. Operators decide to pull the drone back but 
the creatures pursue. 


00:44 The drone passes over an open plain on the way 
back to SCP-3478 with the SCP-3478-B instances in 
pursuit. Several fleshy stalks emerge from large pores 
(~1m in diameter) that open in the plain. Each stalk has a 
metallic object at the top, later determined to be the cans 
of insecticide that were stolen by SCP-3478. The stalks 
use the insecticide to drive off the SCP-3478-B instances 
pursuing the drone. 


01:15 The drone returns through SCP-3478 and 
undergoes decontamination. 


Incident Report 3478-1: On 02/13/16 SCP-3478 started moving 
under its own power despite being sedated to recommended levels. 
The cutting properties of the anomaly caused moderate damage to 
the containment apparatus and chamber, causing a containment 
breach. Several instances of SCP-3478-A were observed on the 
other side of SCP-3478 attempting to cross through the anomaly. 
Due to SCP-3478's rapid movement and cutting properties all of the 
creatures suffered fatal injuries before fully crossing over. SCP-3478 
was recontained after one hour with 2 Foundation casualties. 
Analysis of the recovered remains of the SCP-3478-A instances is 
ongoing. 


SCP-3480: Olympus Mons 


ltem #: SCP-3480 
Object Class: Keter 
Threat Level: Black 


Special Containment Procedures: Access to Mt. Olympus has 
been forbidden to civilians by the Greek government under the cover 
story of protecting an important cultural site. Foundation personnel 

in the guise of officers of the Greek Ministry of the Interior are to 
prevent unauthorized entrance to the area. 


To contain SCP-3480-2 instances, Area-13 has been built within Mt. 
Olympus, approximately 400 meters below SCP-3480.! Area-13 is 
equipped with 18 Massive Scranton Reality Anchors (MSRAs) 
arranged in a circular pattern around the facility. All Anchors are to 
remain active at all times, with any damaged or malfunctioning unit 
repaired or replaced as soon as possible. In addition, one Xyank/ 
Anastasakos Constant Temporal Sink (XACTS) is to be maintained 
on site for use with Protocol Kronos, with a second XACTS unit 
placed in on site storage to serve as a back up. 


MTF Omega-12 ("Achilles Heels"), a MTF specialized in the capture 
and or termination of reality altering entities is to be permanently 
garrisoned in Area-13 to contain SCP-3480-2 instances during 
Protocol Kronos. 


When a White event occurs, Protocol Kronos is to be enacted. 
Following completion of the Protocol, SCP-3480-2 instances that are 
rated as class three reality bending entities or below will be placed in 
standard humanoid containment cells within Area-13. Instances 
rated at class four or above will be placed into a comatose state and 
held on site according to the Palmer Protocol.2 


+ Protocol Kronos 


¢ Upon commencement of White event, Area-13 

XACTS is to be used to temporally isolate Mt. 

Olympus from surrounding reality in order to 

reduce likelinood of CK class Reality Restructuring 

Scenario. 

One third of MTF Q-12 shall leave Area-13 and 

secure a circular perimeter 100 meters from 

SCP-3480-1. 

¢ MTF Q-12 shall maintain the perimeter and rotate 
in four hours shifts for the duration of the White 
event. 

¢ When the White event ends, MTF Q-12 are to 

render the resultant SCP-3480-2 instance 

unconscious through the use of long range 

tranquilizers while off duty members are to 

assemble and proceed to SCP-3480 immediately 

to provide support if needed. 

Following apprehension or termination, MTF Q-12 

is to bring the SCP-3480-2 instance into Area-13 

to be contained. 

After containment, XACTS is to be deactivated. 


Description: SCP-3480 is the peak of Mt. Olympus, Greece. The 
Hume value in this area is the lowest recorded by the Foundation, 
measuring approximately 1.2 x 10- Humes on the Caldmann- 
Rzewski Hume scale.3 A Hume value approaching absolute zero is 
theoretically impossible to occur naturally, and even Foundation 
tests utilizing SRAs in a pocket dimension have been unable to 
produce Hume levels lower than .15hm. While theoretically that 
value could be lowered further, it would require hundreds of linked 
SRAs- a number only one Foundation site possesses. Despite the 
fact that this value should indicate a visibly distorted local reality that 
is brittle enough to be altered by non-anomalous humans, 
SCP-3480 normally shows no visible signs of its anomalous nature. 
The anomaly's age is estimated at years, and has been 
contained or utilized by various Groups of Interest prior to coming 
under Foundation control. 


SRAs are unable to correct SCP-3480's Hume value to the baseline 
of ihm, though they are able to maintain baseline Hume value within 
Area-13 (albeit at a reduced operating efficiency). It is thus theorized 
that SCP-3480 acts as a hole through which local reality is drawn. 
This effect does not appear to negatively impact organisms or the 
environment in SCP-3480's proximity.
