Item #: SCP-6231: The Murderous Camera

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-6231 must be contained in a standard containment cell with a standard padlocked seal door. SCP-6231 must be placed on a 1.5 x 0.4 m marble pedestal contained with in a 6x6 inch glass container. SCP-6231's cell must be visualized with security cameras every 30 minutes to check for any abnormalities. If any abnormalities are seen, SCP-6231 must be carefully moved out of the cell and any abnormalities must be rectified. If any D-Class personnel are to come into contact with SCP-6231, staff are obligated to kill the D-Class personnel that came into contact with SCP-6231.

Description: SCP-6231 takes the appearance of a portable photography camera, usually a standard Polaroid Camera but it's appearance maybe subject to change. In the event SCP-6231 is to be used to take a picture, instead of printing a picture of the subject, it will instead print a picture of either the photographer or the person being photographed's loved ones. Within 5 hours, the person that was printed out by SCP-6231 will be killed by an entity known as SCP-6231-2. SCP-6231-2 bears the appearance of a man in his early 20's, donning a black penguin suit and black bowler hat. To those who have claim to have seen SCP-6231-2 claim he has no face, just a white, long grin and pale skin. When he appears, he holds a 1940s walking cane and Oxford shoes. As he draws closer to his victims, he starts to dance in a jazz type fashion with his walking cane and proceeds to consume the victim leaving an eviscerated carcass left in the crime scene. Police officers claim that during these killings, SCP-6231 only eats specific body parts like the heart, liver, (placenta in women), the jugular artery and the pancreas.

Addendum: Discovery SCP-6231 was found in New Orleans, Louisiana when mutilated bodies were found across the city. Officials looked into the matter naming several possible killers but none were accused. Afterwards, a witness claimed to have seen SCP-6231-2 walking across their neighbor's front yard. Security cameras identified the entity but shortly after he was seen, he disappeared leaving a dead body. Soon a man confessed that he had used a camera to take a picture of his friends and instead came with the picture of his wife who died that evening. The camera was later taken into foundation custody and the murders have stopped since.

Addendum: Research Update Members of staff have been looking into attempts to find out what SCP-6231-2 is with several theories from staff personnel. One theory a member of staff had was that SCP-6231-2 was the first target of SCP-6231 and that his deceased spirit haunts the camera. Another theory that staff had was that he was a photographer who killed himself following a loved one's death. One staff even went as so far as to say that the camera was a tool used to summon Reapers to claim the souls off of those who are soon to be deceased. But, none of these theories have been testified.
