Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a cell at Site 20. Two (2) guards are to remain outside of SCP-XXXX's containment cell at all times. These guards are to be amnesticized and switched out weekly.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a cognitohazard consisting of the phrase [REDACTED]. Subjects exposed to the cognitohazard, referred to as SCP-XXXX-1, begin to experience side effects, increasing in strength over time. They are as follows:

1. SCP-XXXX-1 would begin to hear white noise whenever the name of a person was mentioned in their vicinity. This effect would increase in intensity and volume over time, beginning at 43dB and increasing to 79dB by the fifth (5th) day after initial exposure to the cognitohazard. These effects range in length from ten (10) seconds to about two (2) minutes, and cease by the tenth (10th) day after initial exposure to SCP-XXXX.
2. SCP-XXXX-1 would begin to see a flickering effect surrounding other humans. This effect would increase in severity over time, beginning with a slight fuzzing around the edges of a person, and reaching extreme levels by the fifteenth (15th) day after initial exposure.
3. SCP-XXXX-1 would begin to hallucinate SCP-XXXX-A, a 21-year-old male of Middle Eastern descent. To SCP-XXXX-1, SCP-XXXX-A was a normal human. SCP-XXXX-A's personality, appearance, and location were all consistent across all instances of SCP-XXXX-1.
