Usage

To import this theme to your page, put the following anywhere inside it:

[[include :scp-wiki:theme:creepypasta]]

The standard CSS @import method won't work. This is intentional (thanks to stormbreathstormbreath for providing the CSS code!). Importing the theme using [[include]] adds your page to a list of Backlinks. This is useful for seeing what pages would be affected when this theme is updated, and allows any errors caused by that to be noticed and corrected much faster.

You can view any page's Backlinks by clicking "+ Options" at the bottom of the page, then "Backlinks".

Examples

rook.png

Parawatch Logo.

A horizontal rule can be created with 5 hyphens "-----" and extends across the whole page if it's not placed inside anything (eg a blockquote). The lines separating sections of this document are horizontal rules.

Titles can be created by putting between one and six plus "+" at the start of the line

+ Titles

This is a tab view.

This is a blockquote, created by putting "> " at the start of each line.

More text

That's a horizontal rule

Nested blockquotes

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Archon

Special Containment Procedures: Containment of SCP-XXXX is possible via enclosure of SCP-XXXX-A instances, albeit attempts to contain it are theorized result in worldwide economic decline. Disinformation campaigns are to be directed to prevent public knowledge of SCP-XXXX's existence.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a phenomenon by which gateways to an alternate reality, denoted as SCP-XXXX-A, are created. There is theorized to be exactly one gateway on each distinct landmass on Earth. Exploration of the gateways has always demonstrated the alternate reality to be a single arctic landmass of unknown size. The terrain of the land is largely covered in conveyors. While neither end of a conveyor has been seen, the majority of conveyors have a constant supply of non-anomalous objects traveling along them. The mass of conveyors has no observable end or beginning.

Item #: SCP-5179

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Because of SCP-5179 place and location we are unable to contain SCP-5179but we are able to slow its repair. We can send missiles to SCP-5179 to destroy it but as of now our missiles are getting destroyed by SCP-5179.

Description: SCP-5179 is a large space station about 3 thousand light years from earth. SCP-5179 was discovered in 1989. Now SCP-5179 is in no way related to SCP-2399 they both have weapons yes! But SCP-2399 has antimatter based weapons while SCP-5179 has an unknown type of laser weapon. These types of laser weapons which were detected using a thermal camera have reached the maximum temperature of 13,000 kelvin. When it last shot its laser it had gotten damaged by the debris of the planet. Once it reaches a minimum of 65% completion it will shoot at the earth causing a XK-Class end of the world scenario. The last thing we know is that SCP-5179 has turrets on it. We know this because after we sent a couple missiles at SCP-5179. After a while the turrets had started to get more intelligent and started to shoot at our missiles making shooting at it useless. We still don't know how to stop its repair because our missiles keep getting shot at. Our high rank teams are researching a way to make it so our missiles won't get noticed by SCP-5179 turrets. Our research team will update the article as more information comes out.

Addendum: SCP-5179-A The following is a report of the first discovery of SCP-5179

2/XXXX LEVEL 2/XXXX

CLASSIFIED

 classified-lv2.png

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures:
Reports of electrical short-outs in the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin area are to be monitored by the foundation. If these reports become more frequent, demolition of the building is necessary. The building should be demolished with fire to confirm a neutralization of an SCP-XXXX instance.

Description:
SCP-XXXX is a humanoid entity entirely comprised of shaven plywood and termite droppings. Given the mass of termite droppings and the shaven plywood that are components of SCP-XXXX, foundation researchers assume that this is an anomaly created by termites themselves. An instance of SCP-XXXX resides inside the walls of a 2 story building. SCP-XXXX travels leaving a trail of split and frayed wires, causing electrical short-outs. It is not known if SCP-XXXX purposefully represents any danger to the inhabitants of the building, but the outages regularly lead to loss of heat and the loss of air conditioning.

SCP-XXXX always resides in the walls of a building alone. These instances do not require and sustenance to the foundation's knowledge, but a 3-5 hour resting period each day is a pattern that is recorded in each instance.

Addendum XXXX.1:
the following is a email chain intercepted by the foundation.

Description:
SCP-XXXX is a cluster of psychoparasitic entities specialized on the emotional spectrum engendered in humans by offspring. SCP-XXXX has to date only been observed to infest hosts with currently living biological children under the age of six.

Approximately two hours after initial exposure, infected hosts (designated SCP-XXXX-B) will begin to experience cognitive overlay stemming from SCP-XXXX's cognitomanipulative properties. Specifically, hosts will no longer react to sensory stimuly generated by the host's offspring, causing these to subsequently expire due to neglect. Simultaneously, the subject will manifest recollections of alternate offspring of a similar age.

Within the following one to four hours, these recollections increase in complexity and detail, encompassing a consistent narrative pertaining to the alternate offspring's biography and the subject's previous interaction with it.

After the passage of a further two to six hours, instances of SCP-XXXX-B will begin to experience the persistent hallucination of a child matching the aforementioned recollections, designated SCP-XXXX-A. The subject will then procede to display nurturing behavior towards SCP-XXXX-A, consistent with the entity's apparent age.

Further individuals remaining within an approximately twelve meter radius around an instance of SCP-XXXX-B for a duration longer than on average seventeen minutes will commence to experience matching hallucinations of SCP-XXXX-A. Furthermore, if the individual is aware of the biography of the instance of SCP-XXXX-B, the individual will recall the instance of SCP-XXXX-A as being the subject's natural offspring.

Over the course of four to eight weeks, the subject of infection will significantly physically deteriorate. Body fat and muscle tissue will rapidly degenerate, leading to an emaciated appearance. This process is not influenced by the subject's metabolism or caloric intake and inevitably concludes with the expiration of SCP-XXXX-B.

Upon expiration of SCP-XXXX-B, SCP-XXXX will either seek out an additional host or dissipate. It is assumed that in the event of dissipation, SCP-XXXX returns to a currently undiscovered focal point of the phenomenon, designated SCP-XXXX-C. Attempts to locate and contain SCP-XXXX-C have so far been met with failure.

Procedure 103-BORTBYTING:

The containment procedures in place regarding SCP-XXXX were derived through experimentation based upon elements of West Germanic folklore prevalent within the region of SCP-XXXX's discovery. Avenues of containment based upon analogous folklore found within Celtic, Slavic and Igbo mythological frameworks have been explored but deemed ineffective. However, elements of traditional North Germanic/Scandinavian remedies for similar phenomena have proven to be partially effective and have been incorporated into procedure 103-BORTBYTING.

Due to the nature of procedure 103-BORTBYTING, continued administration in order to forestall SCP-XXXX's progression is currently under review by the Ethics Committee. Until such a time as a decision on the matter is reached, procedure 103-BORTBYTING will remain in use as the primary method of containment for all known instances of SCP-XXXX-B by order of O5-[REDACTED].

While procedure 103-BORTBYTING is effective in demanifesting instances of SCP-XXXX-A, the effect is permanent only in cases in which the procedure is perfomed by the affected instance of SCP-XXXX-B. While procedure 103-BORTBYTING is temporarily effective in demanifesting SCP-XXXX-A and halting SCP-XXXX's adverse effects upon SCP-XXXX-B when performed by a third party, SCP-XXXX-A will remanifest within a forty-eight hour period. Therefore, instances of SCP-XXXX-B which cannot be persuaded to perform procedure 103-BORTBYTING are to remain in containment with procedure 103-BORTBYTING being administered by class-D personnel on a regular basis.

Foundation personnel have achieved varying degrees of success when attempting to induce compliance with procedure 103-BORTBYTING in affected individuals. While results suggest a link to cultural predisposition and educational background, the deciding factor seems to be the individual in question.

To date, six instances of SCP-XXXX-B have been identified and contained.

Name Description Status
SCP-XXXX-B-1 Male, aged 27. Agricultural employee. Among the original instances of SCP-XXXX-B apprehended by Foundation operatives. Non-compliant. Self-terminated after eleven months in containment.
SCP-XXXX-B-2 Female, aged 72. Retiree. Among the original instances of SCP-XXXX-B apprehended by Foundation operatives. At the time of infestation, SCP-XXXX-B-2 was caring for a grandchild. This is the only known instance of SCP-XXXX not displacing a subject's direct offspring. Subject displayed knowledge of the "wechselbalg"-myth, as well as a propensity for belief in regional folklore. Subject eventually compliant with procedure 103-BORTBYTING. Issued amnestics and relocated.
SCP-XXXX-B-3 Female, aged 32. Agricultural employee. Among the original instances of SCP-XXXX-B apprehended by Foundation operatives. Non-compliant. Currently in containment.
SCP-XXXX-B-4 Male, aged 41. State police kommissar. Infested during police investigation of initial outbreak. Apprehended during concealment operation by MTF-777. Non-compliant. Currently in containment.
SCP-XXXX-B-5 Male, aged 22. Logging employee. Discovered during concealment operation by MTF-777. Subject displayed affinity towards cryptozoological pursuits. Subject eventually compliant with procedure 103-BORTBYTING. Issued amnestics and relocated.
SCP-XXXX-B-6 Female, aged 31. Site-06-03 security guard. Infected during the events following SCP-XXXX-B-1's self-termination. While SCP-XXXX-B-6 is aware of the nature of SCP-XXXX, subject remains non-compliant. Subject presents a unique opportunity for the study of SCP-XXXX's cognitomanipulative effects (see Appendix A).

Seeking Greenlights: Yes

Page Type: SCP Article

Genre: Thriller, sorta hard sci-fi

Elevator Pitch: A nearly undetectable and extremely widespread memetic "disease" that spreads via subliminal messages. Its effects mimic non-anomalous abnormal psychology. Most hosts experience violent intrusive thoughts, a small percentage experience personality shifts, and rare cases show signs of schizophrenia. In only a few known cases, the host becomes a “prophet” with the ability to turn any infected person into a fanatical worshipper. Do you sometimes feel a sudden, inexplicable impulse to harm yourself or others? That’s perfectly normal. It is also indistinguishable from the memetophage.

Central Narrative: A researcher is assigned to investigate whether anything anomalous was at work in an incident where a fellow researcher started spouting psychotic flat earth nonsense on the PA system. Progress is slow, and incident reports that were added retroactively to the article due to being overlooked at the time foreshadow the fact that he's on the wrong track and the virus is repeatedly passing right under his nose.

The Foundation eventually identifies the threat and develops a countermeasure, but the false sense of security is shattered by a massive incident affecting thousands of personnel who were thought to have been properly inoculated.

The article ends with instructions to circulate a new inoculation agent in the form of a training video on the difference between potential sightings/leaks, and typical conspiracy theorist garbage. The original researcher is reassigned, and his successor is left to address the fact that there are surely millions of hosts in every civilized nation in the world.

Hook/Attention-Grabber: This will be much more engaging if I can find the writing chops to make the virus’ victims feel both true-to-life and dangerously unhinged. Depicting insane conspiracy theorists as disease vectors and ticking time bombs is definitely not a statement of any kind, but if it was, it would add an interesting element of political allegory.

Additional Notes: If I knew what the hell I was talking about, this would work as actual hard scifi. A literal virus made of information does sort of make sense. I could re-read Snow Crash and see if I hate it less do some research regarding how it would work. It might also be cool to make the epidemiology and psychology more “real.”

Outline and roughing-out follows.

The Boomer Memetophage (working title)
Clearance level: Restricted
Containment rating: Oh Fuck
Disruption class: High Updated X/X/X: OH FUCK
Risk class: Caution
Containment procedures:
IMPORTANT: as of X/X/X, all other preventative procedures are rescinded, only do what’s still in this document
IMPORTANT: as of X/X/X, agent A is to be removed from circulation. Inoculation agent B is effective against all known strains as of X/X/X [experimental reports available from Dr.Whoever] and has no side effects.

Inoculation agent B is to be inserted into PA messages, printed material, and training videos. Foundation personnel who spend more than 3 days without exposure to inoculation-loaded communications are to be given a device that monitors their facial expressions, words, and biometrics and assigned to something where they will rarely talk to anyone for longer than 30 seconds. If they raise no red flags for 5 days, they’re cleared.

Initiatives are being launched to investigate the possibility of SCP-X-1 requiring its own number and/or being connected to a known anomaly or group.
Initiatives are being launched to distribute inoculation agent B via internet and corporate media, see mission reports from Cdr. Whoever. An estimated 20% of the at-risk population is inoculated at any given time.

Researcher note: The problem is that unlike antibodies in your blood, the memetic countermeasures only last until your memory of them deteriorates too far, same reason the contagious period for the virus is so short. We’re only safe because we can be bombarded with it 24/7. It's possible that core personnel are completely immune due to having it baked hard into us via constant repetition, but we've already learned the hard way not to let that give us a false sense of security.

Description:
A self-replicating meme-virus that its hosts spread via subliminal messages in their written, spoken, and digital communications. It is nearly undetectable because its effects mimic non-anomalous abnormal psychology. It may or may not be partially responsible for the resurgence of fringe groups such as (_).

Addendum: Oh yeah, and that whole prophet/activation thing. The wrong Type X host could cause (foundation jargon for world war 3).

Technical stuff

As of present day, there are an estimated [comically long redacted number] of cases worldwide. Watching and listening in person carries the greatest risk, while only listening has a reduced risk and only watching has a minor risk. Hosts unknowingly add the “virus” to all forms of communication, but it needs to be a significant chunk of text, a longish speech, or two minutes of face to face verbal interaction. Transmission via Youtube is possible but amount of exposure needed varies greatly. Unlike a real disease, carriers of SCP-X never develop immunity and remain contagious if continually exposed and repeatedly re-infected. If not re-infected for 24 hours, "pathogen" load begins to decrease. After three days without re-infection, most hosts are no longer contagious. However, hosts that are repeatedly exposed and re-infected can remain contagious for more than two weeks.

97.7% Type A (mild): All hosts experience new or increased intrusive thoughts of violence, and mild personality changes such as reduced energy. 97% of patients fully recover from the symptoms if not re-infected. An estimated 5% of type A hosts are at risk of escalating to type B if continuously exposed over a long period of time.
2.1% Type B (serious): Hosts experience any or all of the following symptoms: New or increased intrusive thoughts, decreased cognitive ability, depression, panic attacks, narcolepsy, and sexual dysfunction. All type B hosts experience significant personality changes and antisocial behavior, usually narcissism and self-isolation. 55% of patients fully recover from the symptoms if not re-infected. An estimated 25% of type B hosts are at risk of escalating to type C if continuously exposed over a long period of time
0.2% Type C: All hosts experience radical personality changes, paranoia, hallucinations, and delusions consistent with non-anomalous schiziophrenia. During the contagious period, Less than 1% of patients fully recover from the symptoms.
Type X: There are three known cases of hosts who exhibit periods of lucidity, surges of social confidence, and highly specific delusions that are not consistent with any medical or psychological diagnosis. All known cases of contact between type X hosts and other infected persons causes the following anomalous effects (see reports):
Host activation: Any type A, B, or C host that comes into contact with a type X will experience feelings of euphoria, increased capacity for violence, and fanatical loyalty to the type X host. There are no confirmed cases of hosts displaying activation symptoms except after coming into contact with a Type X host. Activation increases the time needed for a host to recover and return to normal by a minimum of 30 days.

It has been observed to mutate in much the same way as a virus, so it’s possible that it arose naturally. Based on current information, the first human infection probably occurred between 1998 and 2004, either that or it was born an indeterminate amount of time ago and conditions in the early to mid 00s allowed for its pandemic explosion. The internet and 9/11 could have created the conditions for its creation as well as its explosion. The fact that it can be replicated whole days later without being distorted by memory sounds like anomalous behavior rather than strictly memetic, which raises the possibility that it was created by the beings that hosts claim to be able to see (SCP-X-1).

REPORTS OUTLINE:

2007 (retroactively identified): Crazy doomsayer investigated as possible SCP sighting. Conclusion: Waste of time.

2009 (retroactively identified): Crazy doomsayer investigated as possible leak. Retroactive: May have been activated. Conclusion: Waste of time.

2011 (retroactively identified): SCP employee becomes crazy doomsayer, apprehended due to being a potential leak. Conclusion: Non-anomalous but caused by exposure to an anomaly with known psychoactive effects.

Early 2014: SCP employee becomes crazy doomsayer. Researcher-kun assigned to investigate possible causes just in case it was caused by an SCP.

Late 2014: Civilian employee connected to the same facility starts saying suspiciously similar-sounding things. Retroactive: May have been caused by a type X that he came into contact with in his civilian life. Researcher-kun comes up with a bogus theory re: common factor causing an SCP (an actual one, preferably) to affect the minds of the people in the 2011 and 2014 incidents.

Early 2015 (retroactively identified): SCP employee at a location on the other side of the planet goes postal. Conclusion: Happens all the time.

Late 2015: Another host is detained (this makes two) and proper tests can be done for the first time. Researcher-kun identifies markers for the infection, and realizes that it’s something transmitted from person to person like a disease. A new SCP is registered and preventative measures against spread via face to face talking are hastily put into place.

Early 2016: A small, localized Jonestown event that will be retroactively recognized as being caused by an X-class. Researcher-kun is notified, causing him to change his assumptions. He realizes the existence of mild cases, and sees that everyone is in danger. “Okay, so here’s where we went wrong: All of our so-called control group had a mild form. The severe case markers are a lot more pronounced. Some insane number of personnel were affected. Who knows how many times this thing passed right under our noses, how many incidences of personnel going postal or becoming madmen were caused by this?” Most of this article is written. Additional countermeasures and precautions against the spread are developed and deployed. It is completely effective. A sign of relief is breathed. Researcher-kun is promoted.

20XX (retroactively added): Crazy doomsayer investigated as possible SCP sighting. Conclusion: Waste of time.

20XX (retroactively added): D-class at a faraway location becomes crazy doomsayer. Honestly it’s a miracle that anyone bothered recording the incident.

20XX: Researcher-kun returns home from an assignment on the other side of the planet, and upon entering his home facility he tests positive for the virus. He is quarantined and inoculated without incident. “How fucking long has it been since I had to do anything except sign off on access to my work on this damn thing? Four years? Five?”

New entry: Someone from Researcher-kun’s site massively distributes an audio recording that causes an awakening effect on thousands of employees across sites XX, XX, XX, XX, XX, and XX. All of the affected personnel were infected, including Researcher-kun himself. 20% of contagious Type A hosts, 3% of inert Type A hosts, and 99% of both contagious and inert Type B hosts were affected.

Researcher-kun is relieved of his post, demoted, and reassigned. His successor starts investigating the possibility of a new strain, and he finds one, but that’s not what caused the incident. The inoculation agent had been a failure all along.

[attached: distribute this to all personnel at all sites. It’s the new inoculation agent, embedded in a training video about how to tell the difference between sightings and crazy conspiracy theorists.]
Wow! You flipped a card and got: The penis taker!!! You ca reload the page or go to the next.

Item #: SCP-J-911

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Containment is currently impossible as SCP-J-911 disappears 5 seconds after taking someone's penis and even if contained during that time, it still teleports to an unknown location.

Description: SCP-J-911, also known as the Penis Taker is a Caucasian male at the age of 70-80 years old. It is always seen wearing glasses and a white polo shirt. Formerly, the Penis Taker, according to potential family, was known as Joseph Reynolds. It's anomalies started manifesting in the year 2010 when it was caught on CCTV making someone's penis fall through their pants onto the ground. The entity grabbed the penis, turned into dust and disappeared. The method to summon SCP-J-911 has been recently discovered. One must say "Oh Lucifer, my dark lord, I want him to take (insert the victim's name)'s penis." 5 minutes after the ritual, the Penis Taker will appear behind the victim and take their penis. If the victim is female or has been attacked before, nothing will happen. SCP-J-911 sometimes uses a knife with a red handle to cut off the victim's penis.

Addendum: It is unknown what the entity does with the penises as putting a camera on the penis of a D-Class personell made it evaporate with the penis and the man.
