In all cases, the deaths are fully acknowledged to have occurred in 
circumstances, and be the result of injuries, that would usually 
suggest that the cause of death was not natural, but rather of a 
violent nature. Despite this, all deaths affected by SCP-2109 are 
known to be cases of death by natural causes. All tested human 
beings, when confronted with evidence of the death, will dismiss it 
as a natural or accidental death, apparently in defiance of evidence. 
The reason for this discrepancy is unknown — the general 
consensus amongst SCP-2109 research staff is that these deaths 
are subject to an infohazardous or memetic effect which the 
Foundation is presently unable to counter. However, the possibility 
that the individuals involved in SCP-2109 instances have undergone 
a metamorphic anomaly at the moment of death, or that SCP-2109 
causes a recurring glitch in Foundation meme-analysis software 
have also been considered. 


The deaths affected by SCP-2109 frequently coincide with the 
disappearance or destruction of documents authored by the 
deceased, as well as computers, phones and other data-storage 
devices used by them. 


SCP-2109 was discovered following detection by IAKOB, a semi- 
intelligent text analysis system designed by the Foundation to scan 
legal documentation, police transcripts and court records to identify 
potential anomalies involved in criminal incidents. Part of IAKOB’s 
role includes identifying mind-affecting and memetic anomalies. 


On //_ ,\1AKOB detected an irresolvable discrepancy between the 
findings of a coroner's inquest into the death of Dr. Simon Rice, a 
mathematician from Sheffield, United Kingdom, and the physical 
evidence provided during the trial. IAKOB determined that Mr. Rice’s 
body had received injuries that should have led the inquest to return 
a verdict of unlawful killing. These findings, although unverified by 
any human source with full knowledge of the case, have been 
verified by other meme-analysis programs and blind tests of 
unbriefed medical and legal experts@ have all indicated that, under 


normal circumstances, the death would have been considered a 


potential murder or suicide. 


Since this initial instance of SCP-2109 was indentified, between 80 
and 150 SCP-2109-affected deaths are believed to have occurred. 


Addendum 2109-1: Partial list of SCP-2109-affected deaths: 


Deceased: Date and Location: 
Miss G D Ja //  , Sheffield, 
postgraduate England 


Mathematics student 
and associate of 
Simon Rice. 


Dr. Simon Rice, a //  , Sheffield, 
mathematician England 
employed at Sheffield 

University, England 


Detail of injuries: 
Miss D died asa 
result of a broken 
neck. She was found 
hanging by the neck 
from the second-story 
window of her home, 
by a length of rope 
which was fastened to 
a bedpost. Miss D 
was covered in an 
unidentified dark fluid 
when her body was 
found. 

Dr. Rice died from 
exsanguination, 
resulting from a 
number of deep 
lacerations to the 
arms, neck, abdomen, 
and face. Mr. Rice's 
eyes and tongue were 
not found at the scene 
of his death - the 
coroner's inquest 
suggested they may 
have been removed 
by scavenging 
animals, although Dr. 
Rice was found in his 
apartment and had 
been dead for only 


SCP-238: Building Complex 


Item #: SCP-238 
Object Class: Keter 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-238 is currently contained 
by the original means. Current SCP protocols have proven unable to 
fully contain SCP-238. All exploration of SCP-238 is suspended until 
full, sustained containment has been achieved. Any and all 
personnel attempting to enter SCP-238 are to be physically 
restrained and moved to an outside containment area. Upkeep of 
the current barrier is top priority, and a minimum of two personnel 
are to be present at all times for upkeep and security. 


No testing, samples, or exploration may be conducted within 
SCP-238 until full containment of SCP-238 has been achieved, or 
with approval by Site Overwatch. Any and all persons entering are to 
be deemed missing, presumed dead. 


Description: SCP-238 is an enormous underground facility, with a 
single entrance on the island Shmidta to the extreme north of 
Russia. Tunnel networks have been shown to extend for thousands 
of kilometers, with major "Junctions" under [DATA EXPUNGED]. 
"Oceanic Junctions" have also been observed to include several 
connections to [DATA EXPUNGED]. When originally found, the 
entrance was sealed behind a massive wall of bricks, covered in 
carvings. This wall was removed, and exploration began. Initial tests 
showed that the walls of SCP-238 were primarily fossilized tissue of 
unknown origin. Several structures within the facility led initial 
exploration teams to conclude that SCP-238 is or was at least half 
biological. 


Shortly after discovery of a central chamber, reported to consist of 
partially rotted flesh and badly decayed metal structures, personnel 
began to disappear, and numerous accidents claimed eight lives. 
"Noises" and other hallucinations were reported, along with .

3 


two hours when the 
body was found. 

Mr. A died of 
asphyxiation. Melted 
remnants of a plastic 
bag were found on his 
head and neck. A 
pictogram of unknown 
significance had been 
cut into his upper back 
immediately prior to 
his death. Mr. A's 
corpse appears to 
have spontaneously 
caught fire. 

Mr.B  's heart is 
believed to have 
forcibly expelled itself 
from his chest, 
possibly as a result of 
an undiagnosed 
medical condition. The 
flesh around the 
resultant wound was 
charred. 

The deceased were 
members of an 
internet-based group 
of mathematics 
enthusiasts. All died in 
their homes as a 
result of what was 
believed to be 
accidental sharp-force 
trauma to the skull. 
Symbols, apparently 
some form of 
language or code, had 
been painted onto the 
exposed skin of the 


deceased and onto 
furniture and walls 
around the bodies. In 
each case, computers 
and other data storage 
devices used by the 
victim were missing. 


Dr.S C ,a 03/03/2010, Dr.C  's head was 
mathematician [REDACTED]. the only part of her 
employed by the body to be recovered, 
Foundation to analyse and was found in Dr. 
the output of SCP- . C's office. A large 


amount of Dr.C 's 
notes were missing, 
all references to the 
specific cipher she 
was studying at the 
time of her death 
could not be located; 
investigation into this 
event is ongoing. 


Addendum 2109-2: Following Dr.C —_'s death and her 
identification as a SCP-2109 instance, a review of security camera 
footage from Site-26 using SILVER CRESCENT protocols revealed 
the presence of an anomalous humanoid entity in recorded footage, 
1.9 metres in height, dressed in a robe made of black cloth and 
possibly feathers, with a cylindrical headpiece which completely 
obscured its face. The entity does not appear to be human, as its 
hands appear avian and have four digits. 


This entity was first observed on 28/02/2010, entering a general 
work area at Site-26 and observing Foundation mathematicians 
engaged in discussion of SCP-_ 's output. Over the next two days 
the entity is seen to observe these mathematicians at work, often 
standing motionless in their offices for long stretches of time, before 
beginning to watch and follow Dr.C exclusively. 


No personnel appear to notice or react to the entity's presence 
during this time, and the entity was not detected during prior review 


of the security footage, which did not utilise SILVER CRESCENT 
methodology. At 10:51 EST on 02/03/2010, Level-1 employee Mr. 
E B_ was observed to have stepped around the entity upon 
passing it in a corridor, but extensive interrogation of Mr. B 
indicates that he has no recollection of this event and was likely 
unaware of the entity's presence at the time. 


At 17:56, 02/03/2010, Dr.C leaves [REDACTED], and is followed 
by the entity, which is observed by security camera in the staff 
parking facility getting in to the passenger seat of Dr.C ‘scar 
when she unlocks the vehicle. At 02:45 on 03/03/2010, the entity is 
recorded entering [REDACTED], removing Dr.C _'s severed head 
from within its clothing, and placing it in a cabinet in her office before 
leaving the site. What role the entity had in her death remains 
unknown. It is also unclear how the entity bypassed a number of 
automated security checkpoints while traversing the site. 


As a result of this new information, SCP-2109 cases are to be 
examined to determine if similar entities were present at the scenes 
of other SCP-2109-affected deaths. The significance of the cipher 
that Dr.C — was working on at the time of her death is likewise 
unknown. 


Security measures at [REDACTED] have been modified in light of 
these events, but no recurrence has been noted since.

1. SILVER CRESCENT is a counter-infohazard measure developed 
to allow for the analysis of still images to highlight information which 
human operatives cannot perceive in said images. Further details 
are not available to personnel without requisite clearance.

SCP-2110: Safe Haven 


Item #: SCP-2110 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2110 is to be monitored 
on-site by at least two Level Three personnel at all times under the 
cover story of maintaining it to prevent any damage. As the site has 
been marked as a historical landmark in need of preservation by the 
Junior Gosnold's Preservation Trust, no further action should be 
needed. However, if there is a breach of knowledge to the public, 
and/or civilians are found to have successfully entered SCP-2110, 
Class-A amnestics are to be administered where necessary with 
affected individuals monitored for up to 28 days. Disinformation 
campaigns are to be undertaken to suppress any information about 
the anomalous effects of SCP-2110. 


Any personnel who are American-born, Brazilian-born, belong to the 
Wampanoag tribe, have lived on Martha's Vineyard or have had 
friends or immediate family live on Martha's Vineyard for more than 
five consecutive years are not permitted under any circumstance to 
enter SCP-2110 more than once. Any personnel who wish to 
conduct interviews with SCP-2110-1 must not be American-born, 
Brazilian-born, belong to the Wampanoag tribe, have lived on 
Martha's Vineyard or have had friends or immediate family live on 
Martha's Vineyard for more than five consecutive years. Personnel 
must submit a questionnaire two weeks in advance for overview and 
approval from the Hazardous Materials Containment Liaison 
(HMCL), and must undergo a monitoring period of 28 days after 
interviewing has finished, during which they will be cycled off-site 
until any desire to reenter SCP-2110 has worn off. 


All new information about any cases regarding individuals whose 
appearances match SCP-2110-1 are to be suppressed, and the 
current status of these cases is to be maintained. 


Description: SCP-2110 is a two-story gingerbread cottage! in Oak 
Bluffs, Massachusetts, builtin 18 . There is no recorded history of 
habitation, and it is unknown when its anomalous properties 
manifested. Observing the inside of the cottage via remote- 
controlled rover shows that the cottage is abandoned and in 
disrepair. When trying to look in through the windows on the first 
floor, the view is completely obscured by various objects such as 
curtains or furniture. Windows on the second floor appear to be 
blocked in a similar manner as the first. 


Whenever a subject enters SCP-2110, the inside of the cottage will 
be completely furnished and repaired, with furnishings and 
appliances matching architecture styles commonly used in the 
current time period. There are no electronic appliances in the 
household. SCP-2110-1 appears in the dining area and kitchen 
when SCP-2110 is entered, with food present in the dining area. All 
furnishings, appliances, and food can be removed from the home, 
although the next time a person enters the cottage, the items will 
have been replaced. All objects and food taken from SCP-2110 
have been found to be non-anomalous. Shortly after the subject 
enters SCP-2110, SCP-2110-1 will welcome them, as well as invite 
the subject over to the dining area to eat dinner with them, 
regardless of time of entry. 


SCP-2110-1 is a designation given to 7 individuals who appear in 
the cottage once a person enters. All individuals except 
SCP-2110-1-A are similar in appearance to people reported missing 
between 18 and 20 and all last seen on Martha's Vineyard2. 
Interviews with them have shown that they all act in a familial 
structure, with age and gender determining the familial role of each 
individual. Explanations as to how SCP-2110-1 arrived on Martha's 
Vineyard have not been given. However, with the exception of 
SCP-2110-1-A, all have either lived on Martha's Vineyard at some 
point in their lives, or have had friends or immediate family who have 
lived there for more than five consecutive years. SCP-2110-1 is 
aware of any technological or social advances in the public world, 
regardless of any conversation with them on the matter. 


* SCP-2110-1-A ("Father"): White, birthplace unknown, 
mid-50's, 1.9 m tall. The only individual in the group who does 


not match any known missing persons case. 

SCP-2110-1-B ("Mother"): Wampanoag, born in 
Massachusetts, late-60's, 1.7 m tall. Matches missing persons 
case from 18 from the town of , Massachusetts. 
SCP-2110-1-C ("Uncle"): Afro-Brazilian, born in Rio de 
Janeiro, late-40's, 2 m tall. Matches missing persons case 
from 19 from , Massachusetts. Interviews with 
witnesses and subjects have reported that SCP-2110-1-C is 
unable to communicate verbally, and speaks solely in 
Brazilian Sign Language, with SCP-2110-1-F giving 
translations. 

* SCP-2110-1-D - E ("Aunt and Nephew"): Brazilian, born in 
Massachusetts, mid-30's and 11, 1.65 m and 1.4 m. Matches 
missing persons case from 20 from , Massachusetts. 
SCP-2110-1-F ("Son"): Brazilian, born in Massachusetts, 20, 
1.6 m. Matches missing persons case from 20 from the town 
of , Massachusetts. 

SCP-2110-1-G ("Daughter"): White, bornin =, 21, 1.55 m. 
Formerly D-9350, used for testing the anomalous properties of 
SCP-2110 in order to artificially create a new instance of 
SCP-2110-1. 


Although the subject may leave of their own free will, they will 
usually accept SCP-2110-1's offer to eat with them. As the subject 
eats, they will report feeling at ease and comfortable with 
SCP-2110-1. During this time, SCP-2110-1 will be willing to answer 
questions. After leaving, the subject will express a desire to revisit 
SCP-2110. This will last for a time period of three days to 28 days. 
The subject can resist visiting SCP-2110 as time goes on and the 
desire to revisit wears off. However, the more times they visit 
SCP-2110, the stronger their urge will be. Class-A amnestics have 
been shown to successfully wipe any memories of SCP-2110. 


As the subject visits SCP-2110 more, they will report a closer bond 
to SCP-2110-1, relating personal history and stories about family to 
them at the request of SCP-2110-1, as well as speaking more 
casually and openly. 


After two to six visits, subjects who are American-born, Brazilian- 
born, or belong to the Wampanoag tribe will be invited to sleep on
