SCP-015 V1

## **Special Containment Procedures:**

SCP-015 is currently uncontained and poses a significant threat to individuals who become aware of its existence. Due to the nature of SCP-015, traditional containment methods have proven ineffective.

Foundation web monitoring algorithms are to scan the internet for any instances of SCP-015-related content, including textual references, images, and audiovisual materials. Any identified instances are to be flagged for immediate removal and appropriate amnestic treatment administered to affected individuals.

A dedicated team of digital forensic analysts is tasked with tracking the origin and dissemination patterns of SCP-015. All efforts are to be made to locate the source of SCP-015 and neutralize it to prevent further instances from emerging.

Personnel encountering SCP-015-related content are to report immediately to their superiors and undergo psychological evaluation to detect any signs of memetic influence or anomalous psychological effects.

## **Description:**

SCP-015 refers to a memetic entity known as "Jeff the Killer" that has gained significant notoriety through its presence in internet-based urban legends and Creepypasta narratives. SCP-015 predominantly manifests as a combination of written accounts, visual imagery, and audio recordings, depicting a humanoid figure with exaggerated facial features, severe disfigurement, and a menacing grin.

The origins of SCP-015 are currently unknown. Investigation into its emergence suggests that it first appeared in the early 2000s as part of a series of horror-themed stories circulating on internet forums and imageboards. Over time, SCP-015 has gained widespread recognition and has become a popular subject of fan art, fanfiction, and various media adaptations.

SCP-015 possesses strong memetic properties, capable of affecting individuals who come into contact with its associated content. Exposure to SCP-015-related material has been reported to induce heightened feelings of fear, paranoia, and anxiety. In some cases, individuals have experienced recurring nightmares, insomnia, and hallucinations related to SCP-015.

The most distinct and pervasive aspect of SCP-015 is its ability to insert itself into an individual's personal reality. Reports indicate that affected individuals often experience auditory and visual hallucinations, perceiving the presence of SCP-015 in their immediate surroundings. These hallucinations are typically accompanied by a menacing voice urging the subject to "go to sleep."

SCP-015's influence extends beyond digital media, with reports of physical encounters and violent acts attributed to individuals affected by SCP-015. The entity appears to have the ability to manipulate its victims' mental states, driving them to acts of aggression and self-harm.

Efforts to trace the source of SCP-015 have thus far been unsuccessful, with evidence suggesting that it may have originated from a deeply obscured corner of the internet or a collective creation of multiple contributors. It is crucial to identify and neutralize the source of SCP-015 to prevent further dissemination and mitigate its memetic influence.
