Item #: SCP-5001

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5001 is to be contained within a briefcase with an internal volume of 210mm x 297mm x 2.58mm and an electromagnetic seal. Any SCPF personal who need to access the containment briefcase must have level-2 clearance or be among personnel with such clearance. The containment briefcase must have it’s passcode changed every 30 days, the SCPF must be notified 5 days in advance if the passcode is required for testing or routine checks.

Description: SCP-5001 is stack of 26 sheets of 75 gsm, A4 paper. Each sheet contains text written in Courier New point size 8. The information contained within each sheet are past, present and future events specific to the reader. It is unknown how the text changes or how it knows such information, but it could be [RESEARCH PENDING].

Each page ends with the sentence “Please place this page at the bottom of the pile”. This text is fixed and isn’t affected by a change in reader. Failure to follow this instruction results in a paper cut with varying length, width and depth but the severity of the incision does not seem to effect the lethality. Every result testing the failure to follow this instruction has resulted in the clinical death of the SCPF test subject.

Addendum: Reading the information contained within the pages of SCP-5001 creates some form of extreme curiosity, rendering the reader oblivious to external events as they continue to read about their life. This generated obsession with the information that SCP-5001 provides results in deprivation of essential nutrients to the readers body resulting in death.
