The Death Board (FeatherFall16)

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be hung on the wall in a standard containment room. The door is to remain locked at all times, and entry is prohibited.

Description: SCP-XXXX resembles a large bulletin board, roughly the size of a standard door tuned sideways. It currently has six photos held onto it by silver metal thumbtacks. A green thread runs in between the photos, tied individually onto each thumbtack. Four photos each depict a soldier dying in different ways. The fifth pictures an anonymous Class D Personnel being shot through the heart. The sixth depicts a female foundation researcher in a truck accident.

SCP-XXXX was originally recovered from an abandoned Nazi war camp located in Poland in 1940. The ordeal was completed by a team led by Dr. Frederick Jameson. When SCP-XXXX was found, seven photos were present on the board, however, one was lost during transportation, and the other was removed.

The board's anomaly was discovered when a researcher from Dr. Jameson's team, Dr. Catherine Wood, removed the seventh photo. The previous image on the film was wiped clean and became an image of Dr. Wood in a truck accident. The photo then dematerialized and reformed in the place where the photo had been before she removed it.

Immediately the board was transported to the facility. Amidst the journey, the vehicle Dr. Wood was riding in was t-boned by another truck. Wood was killed on impact. The crime scene was an exact replica of the seventh picture.

SCP-XXXX has since then been deduced to accurately portray the death of anyone who removes a photo. A photo cannot be physically separated from the board for more than a minute unless it isn't lost by means of a human.
