Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX instances are to be kept in a secure 7m X 7m X 7m glass terrarium in Site-66. Any reports of unexplained murders in the Chicago area must be investigated immediately.

Description: SCP-XXXX is the collective designations for several instances of an unknown species of chrysanthemum approximately 1 meter in height. The flower itself is a bright shade of red. SCP-XXXX was recovered from Schofield’s Flower Shop on November 10 1924, shortly after the murder of Irish-American florist and gangster Dean O’Banion. O’Banion was shot earlier in the day, presumably by Italian-American hitmen Frankie Yale, John Scalise, and Albert Anselmi acting on the orders of mob leaders John Torrio and Alphonse Capone.

SCP-XXXX’s anomalous abilities take affect annually. On November 10th every year, SCP-XXXX instances will illuminate and cast a bright red light. The following day, a randomly selected member or associate of the Italian Chicago Outfit will be found to have been murdered in a similar manner to O’Banion, appearing to have been shot several times. Additionally, in roughly 15% of these deaths, a new instance of SCP-XXXX will be discovered near the body of the victim. SCP-XXXX will only select individuals who are alone. No gunshots have been heard near the sites of these deaths and no perpetrators of these murders have ever been located.

SCP-XXXX seems to exclusively target current members of the Chicago Outfit. It also seems that SCP-XXXX does not target individuals who are currently incarcerated or in Government or Foundation custody.
