Mayfield: Not a damn thing. | don't know what was 
talking to them but we couldn't hear it. 


[End Log] 


Closing Statement: Examination of the building in 
question revealed no capability to hold such an event. 
Said building is currently the offices of a now-defunct 
financial institution and its internal layout is inconsistent 
with the description of agents Haas and Mayfield. 
Investigation of this incident is ongoing. Agents Haas 
and Mayfield are currently on medical leave, pending 
psych evaluation. 


Addendum 3129.2: Experiment 3129/34-Gamma (Operation 
"CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT") 


Following the incident in Asheville and with the evaluations of 
Mayfield and Haas showing no signs of compromise it was decided 
that further study of the Stage 3 phenomenon was required. 
Investigation occurred during the 2015 election cycle. This project 
took place as a joint operation between Foundation researchers and 
MTF Tau-3. 


It was determined that study of Stage 3 infected could only be 
performed with a controlled outbreak of SCP-3129. Temporary Site 
34-Gamma was created to allow for this. Temporary Site 34-Gamma 
was a Foundation-controlled and contained small town in 
Washington State found to be a target of SCP-3129. This operation 
was performed under the pretense of government quarantine. 


The project met almost immediate opposition from what is assumed 
to be SCP-3129-1 and was forced to conclude prematurely. The 
following information is considered incomplete. More inauspicious 
study of SCP-3129 is being planned. 


+ Open Attachment 


Experiment: 3129/34-Gamma 


Duration: 09/12/15 to 11/14/15 


Location: Bremerton, Washington (Temporary 
Site 34-Gamma) 


Project Lead: Dr. April Oliviera 


Audio Transcript 

The following is an audio log of a Stage 3 
infected civilian conversing with an as of yet 
unknown entity, presumed but not confirmed to 
be SCP-3129-1. This recording was achieved 
through selective electronic surveillance of 
civilian residences. Subject is an African- 
American female, age late-twenties. 


Subject: Yes, | see you. 
Subject: Yes, | hear you. 
Subject: | won't look away. 
Subject: | won't close my eyes. 
Subject: | will. 

Subject: My TV is on. 
Subject: I'll keep it on. 
Subject: | will. 

Subject: Yes, | see you. 
Subject: Yeah, | can hear you. 
Subject: I'll keep watching. 
Subject: I'll keep it on. 
Subject: | will. 

Subject: It's on. 

Subject: | will. 

Subject: | won't turn it off. 


Subject: I'll stay here. 


Subject: | will. 
Subject: Yes, | saw them. 
Subject: It's on now. 


Addendum: Similar recordings were made in 
the homes of five other individuals. In each of 
the encounters the subject spoke with the 
unseen entity for a period of up to 45 seconds, 
referring to their television sets several times 
each. During this time the television displays 
static to all outside observers. The subject 
spends the duration of the encounter standing 
in front of their television similarly to how a 
soldier might stand "at attention." At the end of 
each encounter the television returns to 
previous broadcast and the subject returns to 
their seat. All six events occurred within eight 
minutes of a Stage 1 transmission occurring 
on the subject's television. 


Observation of Aberrant Behavior in Stage 
3 Infected 

Personal observations made by Dr. Oliviera 
during discreet surveillance of Stage 3 infected 
civilians. 


Stage 3 infected individuals 
periodically display an almost hive 
mind-like behavior. To wit, these 
individuals will frequently and without 
warning gather around televisions 
and computer screens for periods of 
up to forty minutes. Any gesticulation 
or exclamation is made by all 
members of the group and in perfect 
unison. There is no communication 
made between members of the group 
to coordinate this or anything else 


whatsoever. Following these events 
the individuals will return to whatever 
they had been doing before without 
so much a word inquiring as to what 
had just occurred. As for what they 
were watching, | could not tell. As far 
as | was able to see the screens 
were either static or displaying what 
would be called a "blue screen” error. 
Following the event televisions 
returned to erstwhile programming 
while computers rebooted without 
further error. 


With a little eavesdropping | have 
gathered a basic impression of the 
cult of personality surrounding the 
3129 entity. In-between the 
aforementioned hive mind events 
behavior of the Stage 3 infected 
seems to be relatively mundane. Life 
goes on, | guess you could say. 
Except when the topic of the 3129 
entity arises. It appears to be a 
memetic trigger of some sort for 
persons under 3129's influence. | 
have personally witnessed groups as 
large as thirty-two individuals form as 
a result of one mention of the entity's 
pseudonym. The pseudonym is 
heard, repeated, heard again, and 
repeated again. Causing more and 
more individuals to crowd around 
voicing their support of the entity. 
These groups can take hours to 
disperse. Furthermore the infected 
aren't even communicating with each 
other: they talk over one another, 
almost as if competing for who can 
appear the most fanatical. As you 


might imagine it can get quite loud. 


Observation of Stage 3 "Gathering" Events 
Over the course of the experiment in 
Bremerton three events matching the 
description of what agents Haas and Mayfield 
encountered in Asheville were observed. 


Date: 09/30/15 


Witness: Connor Beach (MTF 
Tau-3) 


Statement: On the 30th of 
September, roundabout 2100 hours, | 
witnessed a large number of civilians 
entering a private dining 
establishment. After watching this for 
a moment | realized that there was 
no way that many people could fit 
inside of a Chinese carry-out. | 
waited for a little while longer so as to 
not disturb what was then suspected 
to be a group of Stage 3 then brought 
up the rear of the line. As | had 
assumed the inside of the restaurant 
had expanded to accommodate the 
crowd. Furthermore there were no 
tables nor front counter nor 
observable kitchen. Just an empty 
room with a stage. The event went 
down same as what Ken and Rory 
saw, then dispersed without incident. 


Date: 10/10/15 
Witness: Jeanie Green (MTF Tau-3) 


Statement: | was in a gas station 
purchasing fuel for the company car 


when all of a sudden a flood of 
civilians begins filing in. | mean a 
ridiculous amount of people for this 
little mom-n'-pop shop on the edge of 
town. | watched them totally 
bewildered for a while until | realized 
the building was getting bigger 
around me. Slowly, but surely, the 
walls were expanding outward. And 
every time | turned my back to 
something it disappeared. Just 
vanished. The coolers, the food 
racks, the front counter, the displays. 
One at a time until the place was just 
four walls, a ceiling, and a floor. Then 
| heard something that made me turn 
toward the back of the store. Not sure 
what it was. None of the civilians 
were saying a damn thing. They were 
all as quiet as death. I'm not even 
sure | heard anything. But sure 
enough | turn around and there's a 
stage. | was stuck in that gas station 
for a hour until everyone filed out and 
| was able to reach the door. Upon 
leaving and going back in, it was 
completely back to normal. 
Damndest thing. 


Date: 11/12/15 


Witness: Dr. April Oliviera (Project 
Lead, Experiment 34-Gamma/ 
SCP-3129) 


Statement: | ingratiated myself with 
the locals over the course of around 
45 days. It was during this time that | 
was able to make a number of 
discrete observations of their 


behavior in regard to 3129. It was 
also during this time that | was 
unfortunately involved in a bit of a 
situation. 


| had spent most of time around 
among a group of students. As 
Seattle is a mere 45-minute ferry ride 
from here and living expenses are 
relatively cheap, this group as 
established themselves here as a 
means to get by while they worked 
on getting their degrees. | admit | 
grew fond of them, perhaps a little 
too much so seeing as they were 
compromised civilians in the midst of 
a memetic infection that | was 
personally overseeing the study of. 
Yes, it was a conflict of interest. | 
admit that. | let my empathy for their 
struggle get the better of me. 
However let me be clear that | never 
lost sight of why | was there in the 
first place. My goal first and foremost 
was always to study 3129. 


That being said, | was invited by one 
of the students | had been observing 
to an event. A party, | think he said it 
was. Against my better judgment | 
acquiesced and accompanied him 
and three other individuals to a club. 
Except when we arrived there wasn't 
so much a party as a rally. There 
must have been hundreds upon 
hundreds in that room. As you may 
have guessed it was much bigger on 
the inside. It extended well past the 
observable dimensions of the 
building and somehow, | suppose, 


moved the buildings behind and 
beside it out of the way. It wasn't loud 
like one of the "cult of personality" 
events | had witnessed before. 
Rather, it was deathly quiet. 


They were all watching the back of 
the room. There was a stage anda 
pulpit there, in line with what had 
been observed by Tau-3 in North 
Carolina. | asked the students | was 
accompanying about it but nobody 
acknowledged me. Nobody in the 
room did, in fact. No matter how 
many people | jostled or shoved. | 
couldn't reach the door due to the 
number of people behind me. Believe 
me, | tried my damndest to get out of 
there but everyone was basically 
frozen in place. Completely 
unmovable and unassailable and far 
too numerous to squeeze through. | 
gave up when | noticed the walls 
were still moving outward to 
accommodate more. 


So | was stuck there. In the middle of 
what must have been a thousand 
people. All silent, all staring at the far 
end of the room, none of them 
acknowledging the screaming, crying 
woman in the center desperately 
kicking and shoving those around 
her. Once | had tired myself out and 
was reduced to whimpering | heard 
something. It was faint, as if far off in 
the distance, but | heard it, and it was 
coming from the stage. Then all of 
sudden the most ungodly rapture 
happened all around me. Everyone 


incident. After the incident, it was found that D-939668 had 
previously worked as a contractor in the construction of multiple 
GOC facilities. Security data is being reviewed to find out how 
SCP-396 was able to displace itself to Storage Site-08. 


« SCP-395 | SCP-396 | SCP-397 » 


who had been previously silent was 
now as loud as they could possibly 
be. | covered my ears and screamed 
back at them. 


Then everyone was silent again and | 
heard the voice once more. Well not 
so much heard it as thought | heard 
it, | guess you could say. | tried to 
locate the source of what | thought | 
had heard until the crowd exploded 
once again and | was stymied. This 
went on for a long time. Hours upon 
hours, | think. | was fairly certain | 
had located the source of the voice 
by the time the crowd had begun to 
file out. My male friend saw the state 
| was in however and insisted on 
taking me home. | insisted myself 
that | be allowed to look around but 
the more | resisted the more insistent 
he became. | think it wanted me to 
leave. 


| returned to base of operations as 
soon as | could to report the incident. 
| believe this event to have been 
orchestrated by SCP-3129. If it 
wasn't already aware of who we are 
and what we're doing, it is now. The 
voice | heard was my own. And | told 
it everything. | recommend immediate 
termination of 34-Gamma. 


Addendum: Following this event, Dr. Oliviera 
was promptly relieved of duty and was allowed 
to return to her residence at Site 81. 


Incident 3129/34-Gamma 
Following 63 days of SCP-3129 observation, 


resistance from SCP-3129-1 and Stage 3 
infected civilians required the cessation of 
further operation. The following is a statement 
given by MTF Tau-3 captain Arin Bose 
regarding the events of 11/14/15 and the early 
completion of Experiment 3129/34-Gamma. 


Okay, so, here's what went down: 


We started the night off all right. All 
quiet on the western front as they 
say. Myself and the rest of Tau-3 
were doing routine rounds of the city. 
Just looking around. We were all 
driving unmarked, civilian cars. How 
they knew who we were is beyond 
me, honestly. But sure enough they 
did. Each and every one of us. The 
civvies turned on us almost in unison. 
All over the city. Happened so quickly 
| can't possibly imagine how it was 
organized. But it was. All of a sudden 
the entire city of Bremerton, 
Washington turned on us and tried to 
tear us limb from limb. Like some sort 
of Invasion of the Body-Snatchers 
sort of deal. It was a damn miracle 
we didn't lose anyone. They were 
ramming their cars into ours, trying to 
break the windows and | assume 
drag us out. | had to authorize use of 
non-deadly force for the guys on foot. 
Poor sobs. Thank god we got word to 
headquarters so they could hit the 
lights. For whatever reason the 
blackout stopped 'em dead. 


It was then and there that we filed 
out. Everyone, not just Tau-3. The 
project was over. 


Addendum 3129.3: Catalogued Recording 


The following is an instance of a Stage 1 phenomenon recorded 
from the home of during the operation in Washington State. 
Note that the anomalous effects of SCP-3129 do not manifest in 
analogue or digital recordings. 


[BEGIN RECORDING] 


Recording begins with a daytime shot of SCP-3129-1 
standing outside. It has one foot elevated onto a large 
rock positioned to its right. 


3129-1: Hi, I'm Norman Mann, and I'm running for 
governor of the state of Indiana. 


SCP-3129-1 approaches the camera. It gestures with its 
right hand while keeping its left in its trouser pocket. 


3129-1: My opponents would like you to believe that I'm 
not a legitimate candidate for your governor. I'd like to 
take a moment here to convince you otherwise. 


The recording transitions to SCP-3129-1 being observed 
from afar. SCP-3129-1 is walking through a suburban 
neighborhood and is greeted by bystanders. Bystanders 
do not appear to look directly at SCP-3129-1 or 
otherwise focus their attention on what they are doing. 


3129-1 [VOICEOVER]: Together, | believe we can do so 
much more than individually. As your governor, with your 
help, | will be able to do anything. 


SCP-3129-1 smiles and waves back to bystanders. 


3129-1 [VOICEOVER]: | believe in community first and 
foremost. 


SCP-3129-1 continues down the street. A male and 
female bystander are kneeling beside a child. Upon 
noticing SCP-3129-1, they stand and begin waving. The 
child begins waving as well, in perfect synchronicity with 


the adults. 


SCP-3129-1 [VOICEOVER]: Community, family, and 
togetherness. 


Scene transition. It is now nighttime. The camera is 
trained on the outside of a house. Three individuals can 
be seen, dressed in black, attempting to break into the 
home by using a crowbar to pry open a window. The 
shot changes to a closer view while there three 
individuals gain entry. 


SCP-3129-1 [VOICEOVER]: There are people out there 
that want to destroy our community. 


The three individuals successfully open the window and 
begin climbing through. 


SCP-3129-1 [VOICEOVER]: A vote for me is a vote for a 
safer community. | will not be soft on the agents of fear 
that would seek to separate us. 


Scene transition. SCP-3129-1 is walking through the 
previous neighborhood once again. Bystanders stand 
and greet it as it walks by. Bystanders continue to greet 
SCP-3129-1 long after it passes them by. 


3129-1 [VOICEOVER]: As your governor | know it's 
going to be "all eyes on me." But that's the way | like it. 
The more of you | have watching me the better. I'll never 
back down from public scrutiny.
