Hart Tapes

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Personnel received the location of SCP-XXXX due to an anonymous tip by yet unknown Annabelle Hart. SCP-XXXX-A is to be contained in locked in a Secure Storage Vault when not being tested. All testing must be approved by Site Director and must take place with the supervision of at least one Security Staff. 1990s music via speakers inside the containment cell must played when SCP-XXXX-B are in a state of consciousness.

Each instance of SCP-XXXX-B must be sealed within a three (3) meter by three (3) meter containment cell at all times. Children's toys should be placed in the containment cells including building blocks, wooden objects, Lego and other dolls. When personnel must enter SCP-XXXX-B's container, it should be initiated as soon as SCP-XXXX-B is in a state of unconsciousness. No unauthorized personnel are permitted to enter the containment cells unless specifically instructed by a Security Clearance Level 4 (or higher) site supervisor. Dolls are not to be permitted within the site due to Incident XXXX-1.

Description: SCP-XXXX-A are three Video Home Systems (VHS) tapes approximately 18.7cm x 10.2cm x 2.5cm. Each VHS taps has writing etched into it with permanent marker. The writing displays "Introductory tape", "Commercials" and "Employee Guide". Content of SCP-XXXX-A displays commercials of the small toy shop "Anna-dolls" and teaching employees how the store runs. However at some points during the VHS tapes, horrific imagery of organ harvesting and guides on how to stitch what seems to be a child's heart into dolls. This imagery is randomized each viewing of the tapes. Origin of these tapes are yet unknown.

SCP-XXXX-A reveals that the owner and founder of Anna-dolls is Annabelle Hart who supposedly went missing around the time the shop opened.

SCP-XXXX-B are four dolls. Dissection on one the dolls revealed that they possess no stuffing, yet seem full. Due to an x-ray conducted on the dolls, the researchers have found out that SCP-XXXX-B possesses a human heart the size of a child's in the anatomically correct place. Each of the four dolls enter a state of consciousness which lasts between 1-3 hours. After that they enter a stage of unconsciousness which lasts between 8-13 hours. SCP-XXXX-B has human knowledge, like opening doors, playing with toys, communicating using sign language, etc. Although they have human knowledge, they are extremely violent and will attack anyone they can see with their "eyes".

SCP-XXXX-B-1 is a humanoid doll with farmers attire and red liquids from joints which represents blood. SCP-XXXX-B-1 is the most aggressive of the four dolls. SCP-XXXX-B-2 is a pig with unnaturally dirty "skin". SCP-XXXX-B-3 is a pink spider with two appendages ripped from the base. SCP-XXXX-B-4 is a red rabbit with blacked out eyes.

As a part of containment procedures, the dolls move around in a ballet-like fashion whenever there is 1990's music playing (specifically). This leads to them becoming immobile. Songs that have been proven to work are The Mood That Passes Through You by Michael Nyman, Messa da Requiem by III Tuba mirum and Kurtág: Stele, Op. 33 - 1. Adagio.

Addendum 1: Interview with Annabelle Hart

Interviewer: ███████
Interviewee: Annabelle Hart (Founder of "Anna-dolls)
Date: July ██████

<Begin Log, [1:34pm]>

███████: Okay, let's get started. First of all, please state your name and why you are here on your own accord.

Annabelle Hart: Well I'm Anna; Annabelle Hart. And I'm here because I'm scared of those things.

███████: The dolls?

Annabelle Hart: Yeah.

███████: Okay. Well. Let's get onto that. Why did you open "Anna-dolls" in the first place?

Annabelle Hart: At a young age, I always had a love of dolls and wanted to open my own store. When I eventually had enough money and experience, I opened up the Anna-dolls you know today. I hand-crafted all the toys and business was blooming!

███████: Who made these dolls and do you know anything about their anomalous properties?

Annabelle Hart: That's kinda difficult to explain. But something weird definitely happened that started this whole thing. I got a weird package. It didn't have a name but I was curious what was inside. The package contained a child's heart. They was also a note by ███████████. It read "Please help me. This is my kid's heart. Please put it in one of your dolls and send it to the address. Please I'm begging you. For my baby boy."

Hart seemed distressed

███████: And what did you do?

Annabelle Hart: I…put it in a farmer doll. And it felt…reliving. The doll came to life. I so scared. I managed to throw it in the freezer and lock it.

███████: And what about the other conscious dolls. How did they come to life?

Annabelle Hart: Before the farmer doll came to life, I decided to put more kid's' hearts inside more dolls. It was horrific what I did to those children..

███████: And how did you acquire these children?

Hart went silent

███████: I see. Let's move on. Why did you go missing?

Annabelle Hart: I was terrified of the dolls. They would scream my name and chase after me

███████: Scream your name?

Annabelle Hart: I don't know how they have vocal chords. I only put their heart in.

███████: Hmm. Okay. Did you get any of your employees to do this procedure?

Annabelle Hart: Yeah. I got my most trusted employee, ████████████, to perform the procedure but.. nothing happened. There's something wrong with me.

Annabelle Hart looked down at her hands

Closing Statement: Annabelle Hart was too distressed to continue the interview. Hart is currently being locked up in a containment cell until further notice by the Site Director due to possible anomalous properties. Absolutely no interaction between SCP-XXXX and Annabelle Hart should be conducted for the wellbeing of Hart and for a potential containment breach of SCP-XXXX-B.

Addendum 2: Incident XXXX-1
On 9/12/20██, D-Class personnel was cleaning up containment cell of SCP-XXXX-3 during a state of unconsciousness. For unknown reasons, the containment cell security camera went out during this time. Child's screaming could be heard coming from the containment cell. When Security Personnel entered the containment cell, the D-Class personnel was deceased. Autopsy revealed that the personnel's heart was removed. Due to an inspection of the containment cell, one of the inanimate dolls placed in the containment cell possessed the heart of the D-Class personnel. Due to this incident, no inanimate dolls are to be in any of SCP-XXXX-B's containment cell. Researchers are currently investigating this situation.
