Persons who are unable to adjust SCP-3808's setting to their 
satisfaction will generally direct their efforts towards identifying the 
history and causal mechanism for SCP-3808 in an attempt to 
integrate SCP-3808's existence into their worldview. Various 
subjects affected this way have attempted to publish scientific 
treatises with little to no merit that describe laws of physics that 
would permit SCP-3808's existence. 


Exposure to substantial information about SCP-3808 has the same 
effect as visual exposure, albeit at a greatly reduced rate. Personnel 
responsible for overseeing and studying SCP-3808 have refused to 
implement common-sense containment procedures that minimize 
public access to SCP-3808, stating that it would be nonsensical for a 
bacon cheeseburger to be hidden in a forest and monitored 
remotely. Containment Procedures for SCP-3808 consequentially 
underwent fifteen major revisions after initial implementation, 
increasing both Foundation and civilian exposure to SCP-3808 
above acceptable levels. 


All symptoms of SCP-3808 exposure can be eliminated via amnestic 
treatment. 


On 2015-04-10, Chinese artist Ai Weiwei was contracted as a 
containment consultant for SCP-3808. Current containment 


procedures were implemented to his specifications such that 
SCP-3808 could be interpreted as artistic commentary on the 
ubiquity of fast food culture and the incorporation of 'natural' areas 
into modern capitalism. While some personnel were skeptical of the 
piece's artistic merit and/or the validity of its message, most of those 
personnel conceded the existence of art installations that they 
disagreed with and were satisfied by containment procedures. 
Personnel who objected were then amnesticized.

Dr. Bergeron, 


You were right to ask for a consult on this 
completely hypothetical question. 


If an anomaly with the memetic properties you 
described were to exist (as you have 
repeatedly assured me it does not), you would 
need two teams of agents under double- 
blackbox orders — they receive no information 
on the SCP, and personnel cleared to know 
about the SCP know nothing about the other 
teams. 


The first team would, in this scenario, be a 
honeypot for personnel trying to alter 
containment procedures. Set up a 
"containment liaison" for personnel to contact, 
making sure (of course) that said liaison sees 
no information other than personnel names. 
The liaison forwards this information to an 
independent task force, which tracks down the 
affected personnel and administers a pre- 
formulated amnestic regimen. 


The second team would handle civilians 
exposed to the anomaly. Station them 
somewhere all exposed civilians will pass 
through (at multiple points if necessary) and 
tell them to do a standard computer-and- 


cranium info wipe on everyone who passes 
through that isn't a guard. CogHaz teams are 
trained for this sort of thing, so you don't need 
to worry about accidental exposure. 


Naturally, none of this goes in the official SCP 
file. The totally hypothetical one, of course. 


Contact me if you have any further questions, 
Dr. Graff

SCP-3809 


Item #: SCP-3809 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3809 is continuously 
patrolled along is perimeter by no fewer than fifteen (15) Foundation 
security operatives at a time, each equipped with standard law 
enforcement equipment to identify and apprehend potential 
trespassers. All trails and roads leading into SCP-3809 are 
obstructed by roadblocks and lined with hidden pressure sensors 
designed to provide security teams with advance notice of a security 
breach. Any and all personnel attempting to gain access to 
SCP-3809 for any reason are to be apprehended, questioned, and 
administered a Class-B amnestic or higher prior to release. 


Personnel requesting assistance from within SCP-3809, regardless 
of their affiliation, should be ignored by all nearby staff. No recovery 
attempts should be made, nor will they be authorized by site 
security. 


Description: SCP-3809 refers to a roughly 6km by 6km stretch of 
temperate forest in central West Virginia, previously known as 
National Park and, briefly, Central Mountain Campgrounds. Based 
on satellite imaging and limited exploratory efforts, SCP-3809 
appears to be a standard temperate forest possessing a variety of 
indigenous life and exhibiting no obvious anomalous properties. 
Roughly sixteen man-made trails are present within SCP-3809, the 
majority of which appear to be scenic in nature and designed to 
fixate on natural landmarks; all such trails have since been closed 
per the aforementioned containment procedures. There are no other 
non-natural structures or items known to exist inside of SCP-3809. 


SCP-3809, when explored by a human subject, possesses various 
anomalous properties of dubious relevance to each other. A 
conclusive description of these phenomena is impossible, as all 


personnel who enter SCP-3809 are invariably lost with no hope of 
recovery. Video/audio recordings captured from within SCP-3809 
are often of a conflicting nature and appear to have been 
deliberately tampered with to alter or omit certain events. Due to the 
inherent risk such operations pose to Foundation personnel and the 
potential for an increase in SCP-3809's anomalous activity, all future 
expeditions were indefinitely suspended by O5 Command shortly 
after the anomaly's containment. There are currently no plans for 
any further research regarding SCP-3809 to be conducted.

The following is a transcript of Mobile Task Force 22- 
Omega's expedition into SCP-3809. Audio and video 
were recorded by helmet-mounted cameras. 


<BEGIN LOG, SKIP TO 00:15:32> 


Elements of Mobile Task Force 22-Omega - 
specifically, Agents Charles, Michelle, and 
Rodriguez - proceed inside of SCP-3908 using 
Trail 06 and arrive at a waterfall. No 
anomalous activity was observed in the 
footage skipped. 


Charles: Control, you seeing this? 
Control: Copy. 


Charles is referring to a natural waterfall, 
roughly 80m from the surface of the forest. 
The team had been following the connected 
river for roughly eight minutes. 


Charles: Think we can get around it? 


Rodriguez: Yeah. Looks like - looks like 
there's a path that goes around the right face. 


Charles: Alright. 


Several minutes pass. The team arrives at the 
top of the waterfall. 


Charles: Looks like we're - what, 200 feet off 
the ground? 


Michelle: Think so. Not sure what we're even 
looking for. Thought we'd see something by 
now. 


Rodriguez: Careful what you wish for, agent. 
Michelle: ...that a deer over there? 


Michelle gestures to her side. An adult buck is 
visible in the bushes. 


Charles: That's a pretty big buck, actually. If | 
had my hunting rifle with me - 


Rodriguez: Shut up. 


Rodriguez: What's it doing? Looks like it's 
getting closer to us. 


As Rodriguez claims, the buck approaches the 
group. 


Charles: That doesn't make a whole lot of 
sense. This place has been off-limits for ages. 
They shouldn't have had any contact with 
people. 


Michelle: Quiet. Don't scare it off. 


Charles: Jesus, be careful. Those antlers are 
fucking huge. 


The deer reaches Michelle and appears 
confused, snapping its head to observe the 
group. When Michelle extends her palm to 
touch it, the deer charges, knocking Michelle 
to her feet. 


Rodriguez: Fuck! Get - 

Control: What's going on out there? 

Charles: Get that thing off her, Rodriguez - 
Michelle: It's biting me - it's biting - oh Jesus - 


As captured by Charles' camera, the deer 
appears to bite Michelle's leg and begins 
dragging her away from the group into a 
nearby crop of trees. When Rodriguez and 
Charles attempt to stop the buck, they are 
charged by additional deer from the right side 
of the frame. Rodriguez is to believed to have 
been impaled on the antlers of a buck and 
later died of blood loss, while Charles 
managed to escape deeper into the woods. 
Contact with both Charles and Michelle is lost. 


Twenty-two hours following this incident, the live feed 
from Charles' camera is reactivated. He is seated at the 
base of a tree, sobbing quietly. 


Control: Charles, come in, do you read? 
No response. 


Control: Charles, this is Control. We see your 
feed. Are you there? 


Charles: Control? 


Control: Charles, we hear you. Where are 
you? 


Charles: |-| don't know. | think I'm lost. | don't 
know where...where the others are. | can't find 
my way out of here, Control. Oh, fuck. 


Control: Charles, you need to remain calm. 
You only have a few hours of daylight left. Can 
you make your way back to the waterfall? 


Charles: There is no waterfall. 
Control: Say again? 


Charles: It's not there. | retraced my steps 
perfectly. I-| knew exactly where it was. | was 
in the right spot, but it just...just wasn't there. 
Like it had vanished. | don't know what the 
fuck is going on. 


Control: Roger, standby. 


Charles: Wait, | hear something - there's 
something coming. 


Control: We don't hear anything on our end, 
over. What do you hear? 


Charles looks right and appears to be startled 
by something off camera. He breaks into a 
sprint, heading deeper into the forest. 
Exhaustive review of the footage has failed to 
uncover any indication of what incited this 
response from Charles. 


After several minutes, Charles stops and flips 
onto his back, revealing that a vine has 
grasped his ankle. He is then pulled across the 
floor of the forest for several meters before 
being dragged underground. The events that 
followed were not visible to Control due to the 
lack of any light. A subjective description 
provided by research personnel indicated that 


moon 


sounds of "rushing water", "screaming", 
"gagging", and "wet flesh" were heard. 
Charles’ feed was lost shortly after this event. 
The whereabouts of of Michelle and Rodriguez 
remain unknown, though they are presumed 
deceased.

Shortly after the events described in Document 3809-01, 
a recovery team was dispatched to identify the 
whereabouts of MTF 22-Omega. Contact with the team 
was lost within two hours. An unmanned reconnaissance 
drone was subsequently sent into SCP-3809; it was 
successfully able to locate the corpses of the recovery 
team's members. Their statuses, as captured by the 
drone, are described below. 


Commander : Found along the shores of a river 
with most of his armor and clothes removed. Extending 
from the nose, mouth, eye sockets, and lower abdomen 
were various organisms believed to be fungi. The state 
of this individual's corpse suggests he was deceased for 
weeks, potentially months despite the drone being 
dispatched mere days following the team's 
disappearance. 


Agent : Found impaled onto a tree branch 
through the stomach with the head raised by a vine. 
Footage captured by the drone suggests that the 
individual's eyes were moving and that the body was 
twitching sporadically. Whether this indicates that the 
agent was alive or was merely an extension of the 
anomaly is unknown. 


Agent : Found with a broken jaw and severed 
tongue. Several teeth were observed to be missing. 
Stomach appeared to have been ruptured, with visible 
damage to the intestines. 


Agent : Found with his right arm severed and 
forcibly placed inside his mouth. Various lacerations 
were also observed, most notably around the genitals. 


Agent : Found with evidence of [REDACTED], 
leaving most tissue unrecoverable. Hair, teeth, 
fingernails, [REDACTED], and large clumps of hair were 
found inserted into the individual's [REDACTED]. 


Further analysis of recovered footage is ongoing. 


SCP-3810 


WARNING 
LEVEL 4 RESTRICTED 


The following file requires Level 4 security 
credentials to access. Unauthorized access attempts 
will be logged internally and provided to O5 
Command for further analysis. 


[ENTER LEVEL 4 CREDENTIALS] 
Item #: SCP-3810 
Object Class: Neutralized (formerly Keter) 


Special Containment Procedures: All organic 
remnants of SCP-3810-01 have been placed in Level 4 
BIOSEAL containment units on the ground floor of 
Site-93. Access to these units requires Level 4 clearance 
and authorization from the site supervisor. No further 
containment procedures are necessary. 


Previous Special Containment Procedures: The 
following Special Containment Procedures are receiving 
ongoing updates due to the nature of SCP-3810-01's 
appearance. 


LAST UPDATED: 1/12/2016 3:03 AM 


At this time, all Foundation efforts are focused on 
removal of SCP-3810-01 from populated civilian areas. 
Given the size of the entity, its exposure to the public, 
and the use of force by the United States military, O5 


Command has ordered the immediate termination of 
SCP-3810-01 and a Z1-Class reality reset upon recovery 
of the subject's corpse. Elements of Foundation security 
teams and Mobile Task Force Beta-22 ("Rock Slingers") 
have been embedded into the United States Army and 
United States Marine Corps to address the threat posed 
by SCP-3810-01. 


All Foundation personnel assigned to SCP-3810-01 are 
required to assist government entities with civilian 
evacuation efforts if possible. It should be noted that, due 
to the aforementioned scheduled Z1-Class reality reset, 
standard Foundation regulations regarding clandestine 
operations have been temporarily suspended. Capable 
transport helicopters and aircraft have been rerouted to 
Zone-81 for the purpose of assisting with federal 
evacuation efforts; it is strongly recommended that 
airports and helipads be left vacant to facilitate this. 


SCP-3810-01 has proven resilient, if not impervious, to 
conventional firearms and explosives. For this reason, a 
JKT-11 Dauntless strike has been approved and is 
awaiting activation by O5 Command. Foundation 
operatives will be provided with advance notice and are 
required to evacuate Zone-81 upon receiving a JKT-11 
confirmation signal. Any individuals left in Zone-81 at the 
time of JKT-11's activation are to be treated as lost, with 
no rescue attempts taking place.
