Item #: SCP-4291

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-4291 is to be contained in a 5 m x 5 m x 6 m metal cube. Daily checks for any cracks, holes, and rust are mandatory. SCP-4291 is to be switched off and all times unless conducting a test.

Any photos, video or recordings of SCP-4291 while it is turned on is prohibited without authorization from Dr. ███ and O5-█.

Description: SCP-4291 is a television from the ’80s with a cassette tape (hereafter referred to as SCP-4291-1) and a cassette player (referred to as SCP-4291-2). Unlike any other television from the ’80s, SCP-4291 can’t be dismantled as it has no screws. X-ray shows that inside SCP-4291 are heavily modified television components. The estimated origin of SCP-4291 is from ███████████, Malaysia. The contents of SCP-4291-1 are unspecified. When SCP-4291-1 is played on SCP-4291, personnel viewing SCP-4291 gets a feeling of unease and starts to panic. Some said that it was a regular tv show, but when asked what it was called, they don’t recall (See Experiment #1 logs). Personnel that got a feeling of unease said it was looking at them, calling out their names and after an hour, they committed suicide.

Any personnel viewing SCP-4291 gets a different response based on their childhood or past. Personnel entering SCP-4291’s containment cell for mandatory checks should be informed of SCP-4291’s ability. Class-D entering SCP-4291’s containment cell should be no more than 2.
