'''SCP-885''' is a creature of unknown composition that displaces all fluids within its perimeter, rendering it to be, for all intents and purposes, a total vacuum. 885's perimeter induces a state of pressure differentials, allowing it to manipulate differences in pressure to move itself through all known fluids and permeate through porous solids.
885 is attracted to living, breathing organisms. When it identifies prey through atmospheric vibrations it seeks to surround the creature. Once it has surrounded its prey, 885 will extracts all fluids and gasses still clinging to the prey's folds and/or pores via negative pressure, killing the prey via hypoxia and ebullism.

'''SCP-900''' is an abandoned, partially submerged city located within the Pacific Ocean, approximately 300 km east of Indonesia's Helen Reef. An island measuring approx. 5km 2 is located at the center of 900, and is inhabited solely by '''SCP-900-1''', a female humanoid clad in red robes. 900-1 speaks exclusively in a previously undiscovered language, which she has referred to as "Burbak", and claims to know everything regarding the history of the city. The area surrounding [=900-1's=] island disrupts electronic devices and causes distortion in audio equipment.

'''SCP-922''' is a reality-altering phenomenon affecting the students and faculty of a prominent university, as well as civilians in the surrounding neighborhoods. Affected individuals show a number of discrepancies in memory, including the recollection of non-existent events and individuals. 922 also may or may not be responsible for creating new individuals, most of whom have been positively identified using local census records. The nature of [=922’s=] effects make it unknown as to whether these individuals are newly created, or have previously been removed from the memories of students or faculty. Alterations made by the phenomenon have indicated a behavioral pattern of evasion and deception based on indirect interaction with Foundation personnel.

'''SCP-929''' is an entity of varying height, weight, and species which possesses the ability to rapidly change alter its appearance and biology. Upon entering an area of three meters around an animal, 929 will designate said organism as its "parent" and rapidly transform into a younger member of its species, remaining in this form until either the parent is killed or threatening behavior is engaged against the entity. 929 exerts a psychic influence over its "parent", which will believe that 929 is their offspring and recall highly detailed memories regarding [=929's=] presence. Upon being presented with hostility, 929's face and cranium will split and open, revealing a number of tendrils similar in composition to organs. 929 will kill the threat via a combination of throttling, brute force, and lashing, whereupon it will seek out a new parent.

'''SCP-930''' is a tropical island approximately 710m in diameter, with a range of 680-760m. Several species of birds, dubbed '''SCP-930-1''', inhabit the island, with avian specimens introduced to the area becoming instances themselves. Sea-faring vessels trigger an immediate response from 930-1 when approaching the shore of the island. The birds will immediately take flight and steadily increase in numbers, reaching peak concentration roughly 7.0 minutes after the phenomenon is triggered. 930-1 shows hostility towards all humans after they disembark to the extent of inflicting non-lethal wounds, and will only return to a passive state once the intruders leave.

'''SCP-903''' is an empty, incomplete concrete tunnel that contains no piping, wiring, or utility equipment. The tunnel is housed in Site-19, and connects the Containment Wing with the Lambda Laboratory Wing. 903 contains an old rail system, consisting of a single monorail that spans the entire length of the tunnel. If an item or organism is placed inside the monorail cart and sent through 903, the monorail will suddenly and inexplicably stop in the center of the tunnel. The anomalous form of illumination previously lighting the tunnel will then deactivate, reducing visibility to zero. Attempts to use external lighting or image enhancement technology have proven ineffective in observing 903 during this state. After approximately fifteen seconds, the illumination and the monorail cart will reactivate, continuing on its path as normal. However, the item or organism that was previously placed inside the cart will be missing with no trace. Upon returning to the point of launch, the monorail cart will contain a new item and an elaborately handwritten note. These replacement items are universally anomalous in nature, but each instance's properties seem to consistently match the properties of [=SCPs=] already in custody, almost as if they are bootlegged variations of the items in question. Two hours after removal from 903, the replacement items will lose their anomalous properties and detiorate.

'''SCP-904''' is a poem scratched into a bathroom wall in a prestigious university. The poem presents a slight memetic hazard to anyone who reads it, though it is only truly harmful to those with a specific, creative mindset. Symptoms after reading the poem include the tendency to rhymes uncontrollably in all forms of speech. Reading the poem multiple times, or being in extremely close proximity to it after reading it once, will result in the development of a more refined poetic form of speech, containing iambic pentameter or more fitting rhymes. Infection is not permanent, as some individuals will only remain affected between 10 minutes to 24 hours. The infection can be transmitted to people from a previously infected person caught from other individuals will be shorter in duration than infections from the source. Individuals with backgrounds in poetry and the arts are more adversely affected by 904's effects. These individuals have a far more difficult time ridding themselves of the infection, which will induce hallucinations of being "trapped" in various enclosures, extreme depression, and the feeling that they are unable to express their thoughts or that their body is not theirs anymore, whereupon the subject will choose to self-terminate.

'''SCP-908''' is a partially-submerged rocky islet, measuring approximately 30 meters in length and 25 meters in width, rising to a height of approximately 22 meters above the waterline. The vertical rock face contains carved inscriptions in the Old Ge'ez script, which are far too eroded to be read clearly, but appear to indicate that the rock was visited by Ethiopians in the fourth or fifth century BCE. There are also carved glyphs that resemble the oracle bone script used in Shang-dynasty China near the waterline, but the weathering of the carvings indicates that they were added relatively recently. The only organisms inhabiting the islet are various lichens and small mollusks, although portions of it are also covered with seabird guano. 908 is a geographic anomaly located in several different places at once. The islet's colocation properties extend to objects in physical contact or close physical proximity to itself. Atmospheric and water temperatures, as well as the salinity of the surrounding water, remain relatively constant, regardless of the time of day or year that the islet is visited, or the point of origin from which it is approached. The islet is also typically surrounded by a mist or fog which, even under the best lighting conditions, limits visibility to no more than 50 meters.

'''SCP-911''' is a papyrus scroll originating from the Egyptian Book of the Dead, dating from approximately 1375 BCE. When a living human makes skin contact with the scroll, in 90% of cases, their personality, memory, and higher brain functions - the "consciousness", for lack of a better term - are drawn into the scroll, leaving the body with no higher brain function. Affected subjects die of dehydration in approximately 3 days, unless they are put on life support. There is a 10% chance that contact with the scroll will exchange the mind and personality of the subject currently making contact with another consciousness previously stored in the scroll. Subjects whose consciousnesses enter the scroll end up floating in an endless void, and can only escape through a portal that opens for a few seconds at a time.

'''SCP-912''' is a collection of body armor, clothing, and equipment conformed to the standards of uniform worn by SWAT Team officers. The articles are able to create an entity capable of independent movement and action when assembled, floating in mid-air as though worn by a man or woman around 6'1" in height. No such presence can be detected, and the method by which this ability is achieved has yet to be identified. 912 does not directly respond to communication attempts in its default state, and has been assessed to pose no hazard to health, security, or the risk of escape when handled properly. Despite this, it will follow simple orders in English, primarily the command to arrest a subject, if given the command by a person wearing a police uniform. 912 will also attack in self-defense, but only in the event that it detects an armed individual or individuals within its visual radius, as well as if said person or persons pose actively threatening or hostile behavior towards itself or an individual a police uniform.

'''SCP-915''' is a mechanical computing device with a highly non-Euclidean internal configuration, created as the result of a previous experiment with SCP-914. Despite appearing entirely mechanical, 915 completely replicates the capabilities of its input device, a desktop computer. The exterior is a metal cube with sides of one point three meters in length. Plastic inserts can be found on all edges, presumably as a safety measure to prevent contact with sharp metal seams. The interior of 915 is a mass of gears and clockwork, as well as more esoteric mechanical components used in computation, which engage in constant shifts that hinder navigation. A constant mechanical drone and grinding sounds can be heard within the machine, all of which experience modulation and distortion, predicted to be the result of the nonstandard topology the device possesses. When maintenance is required, it will display a summary of the required repair, as well as displaying a map leading to the site within 915 where maintenance is required. The interior has been found to induce cases of disorientation, nausea, and fainting. It is indeterminate how much of these symptoms are a result of the sensory corruption due to the non-Euclidian nature of the device.

'''SCP-916''' is a male golden retriever identical to any other dog of its breed, other than its exceptional longevity. Its demeanor has been noted to be exceptionally friendly, but its anomalous effects will occur between 15 minutes to 1 hour after initial contact with a human subject. 916 will become docile and lie down next to the subject. After several seconds of immobility, the dog will begin to completely suppress any pain felt by the individual in contact with it. Subjects report this effect to decrease with distance, and to cease at twelve meters from the dog. Within three minutes of beginning its active phase, one or more instances of SCP-916-1 will manifest. 916-1 are localized human voices which originate approximately two meters away from the subject. The voices may be recorded and interacted with by the subject, but will often not appear if multiple personnel are present. 916-1 universally claim to be individuals who have been "helped to die" by 916, and are able to provide names and detailed information with which corroborate this claim. 916-1 have been shown to use a wide variety of tactics to attempt to persuade the subject into committing suicide in the presence of 916.

'''SCP-918''' is an abandoned mill that does not show any recorded/documented evidence of ever being constructed. The interior of the mill is filled with machinery of an unknown purpose that appears to have been constructed from scrap metal, mainly constituting a series of intersecting pipes running through the building, though pulleys and what appears to be the engine of a tractor are also present. Every two months, instances of '''SCP-918-1''', creatures resembling storks, will emerge from 918’s chimney. When dissected, the creatures do not appear to possess a skeleton, flesh, or internal organs, instead being completely hollow. After emerging, instances of 918-1 will almost immediately begin to fly to an apparently predetermined residence, which will always be home to a newborn infant and its parents. Upon arrival, 918-1 will locate the newborn infant and carefully hold it utilizing their talons. 918-1 instances will then fly back to 918 and insert the infant into the machinery within. After fifteen minutes, varying amounts of talcum powder will be dispensed from the end point of the mechanisms.

'''SCP-919''' is a full-length mirror appearing to be in excellent condition. When a living subject stands in front of the mirror for 15 seconds, their reflection will break synchronization and beg the subject not to leave as a means of staying alive. The reflections appears to be completely self-aware, and has shown to have access to all of the subject's memories. When the subject makes any move to leave the area, the reflection instantly becomes hysterical. Once the subject is no longer in a place where they can be reflected, the reflection will scream and violently disintegrate. Repeated exposure to the same subject have shown that the reflection is cognizant of what happens to itself, hence its hysteria when the subject attempts to move.

'''SCP-921''' is an underground complex of rooms, tunnels, and chambers of various sizes, composition, and age surrounding a central chamber. While some of the rooms appear to be natural caves, others are clearly man-made, while still others are formed by unknown means altogether. Many of the rooms in 921 contain various differing objects inside them (henceforth '''SCP-921-1'''), rock formations and/or underground flora in the cave-like rooms, mundane items in the man-made rooms, and other objects in the unclassified rooms. The objects seem to contain "sensations" when interacted with, causing its user to experience a combination of sights, sounds, scents, and other sensory inputs, as well as emotions. The central chamber of houses an incorporeal entity whose voice originates from the ceiling (henceforth '''SCP-921-2'''), addressing those who enter the main chamber. 921-2 seems to serve as a sort of guide and curator to instances of 921-1 housed within the complex, and will provide directions to a specific object or area if prompted, as well as offer a limited explanation of the sensation contained within an individual object.

'''SCP-924''' are pale humanoids measuring approximately 2 meters in height. The creatures have the appearance of a waterlogged corpse, with the addition of several bony antler-like growths on the head and a set of external gills located just below the rib cage. They are capable of swimming at speeds up to 30 km per hour and surviving at depths of up to 1 kilometer. 924 instances require a near-freezing arctic environment to function properly, and will lapse into a state of estivation if the water around it rises above 4ºC. 924 are ambush predators, attacking their prey from underwater using either holes in the ice as an appropriate ambush location, or by simply breaking through the ice itself. They are highly sensitive to both smell and vibrations, allowing them to track prey from significant distances. If the attack is successful, the target is promptly drowned, the body being dragged down to the ocean floor for consumption. Drowned bodies are released after 1-6 hours, all of them showing signs of prolonged submersion and high pressure, as well as liquefaction and consumption of internal organs and muscles, and high levels of virulent bacteria which will break down most types of connective and muscle tissue when exposed to a human body.

'''SCP-925''' is a species that appears near-identical to a human male. 13 specimens of 925 have been brought into Foundation Custody from cavernous areas situated near major population centers around the world. The specimens have been reported as "normal, but slow, acting as if inebriated or impaired." This seems to be deliberate on the specimen's part, in order to be dismissed by those surrounding it, allowing it to close on potential victims. 925 appear to be intersex, as those in confinement refuse to reproduce, and the act has yet to be observed in the wild. When a specimen makes physical contact with a human, the victim will become more sympathetic to the specimen. If physical contact is maintained for more than 3-5 minutes, the affected subject will become completely devoted to the specimen. Once a specimen has gathered between 10 and 30 followers, it will lead them to a distant, secluded area. Any attempt to interact with the group or stop them will be met with violence. Once the group has arrived, the followers will begin digging downwards, constructing a cavern. Once finished, the followers will search the nearby area for materials to use as fertilizer, then grow mushrooms in the cavern. Followers who die due to exhaustion and malnutrition will also be used as fertilizer. 925 will gorge itself on the resultant mushrooms whenever a crop is ready for harvest.

'''SCP-926''' is a ''guqin'' (a seven-stringed Chinese zither) dated to the 2nd-3rd century BCE. The top of the sound chamber is constructed of the wood of the extinct Firmiana simplex tree, the base composed of wood from Catalpa ovata, and the exterior of the instrument is coated with a lacquer of unknown composition, with crack patterns on the surface that superficially resemble archaic Chinese logographs. The back of the instrument bears a calligraphic inscription in archaic Chinese reading "The King of Qin commands". 926 appears to function as a control mechanism for a collection of thousands of terracotta figures that were found buried in an underground city near 926’s discovery site. Each figure depicts a life-sized human or animal, the statues depicting humans varying in dress, height, uniform, and hairstyle in accordance with their apparent rank and the duty of the human depicted. Despite their clay construction, the statues have been demonstrated to be capable of movement and other actions, but only when given commands by means of playing the instrument.

'''SCP-927''' is a dilapidated three-story residence housing two slightly decomposed corpses, one male and one female. The male corpse shows signs of blunt trauma to the head and neck, and severe lacerations on the right leg, whereas the female corpse shows signs of strangulation and blunt trauma to the ribs. The source of 927's anomalous properties is an unidentified microorganism, hereafter referred to as '''SCP-927-1'''. 927-1 has infested all surfaces and liquids inside the house, which has shown no further structural collapse since initial infection, nor has any biological tissue within resumed decomposing. Upon infestation of a residence, 927-1 will proceed to replicate 927's conditions. 927-1 will infest any humans in the residence, killing them by tunneling through their heart and proceeding to systematically injure the corpse. In the case of males, 927-1 will replicate blunt trauma to the head and neck, and will tunnel through the right leg to create severe lacerations. In the case of females, 927-1 will apply precise trauma to simulate strangulation and blunt trauma to the ribs. If there are more humans residing in the infested residence than 927, any additional corpses will be broken down extremely quickly. 927-1 within victims’ bodies will, through an unknown process, alter the corpse's DNA until identical to the corresponding body within the house.

'''SCP-928''' is a doll made of ceramic and cloth. The doll’s eyes are capable of movement and will usually follow any person in the vicinity. Although its mouth does not move, the doll is capable of producing vocalizations resembling those of a middle-aged human male with an as-of-yet unidentified accent, typically consisting of exchanges of pleasantries or requests for clarification of some sort. Periodically, 928 will issue commands corresponding to movements in a game of chess. In most cases, there are several weeks or months between commands, but intervals have ranged from three hours to eight years. Commands are not always issued in correspondence with formal chess notation, but are comprehensible, and are believed to learn about or predict world events outside of its containment site.

'''SCP-929''' is an entity of varying height, weight, and species which possesses the ability to rapidly change alter its appearance and biology to match those of any other species. Upon entering an area of three meters around an animal, 929 will designate said organism as its "parent" and rapidly transform into a younger member of the organism's species, and will remain in this form until either the parent is killed threatening behavior is engaged against the entity. 929 exerts a psychic influence over those designated as its "parent", which will believe that 929 is their offspring and recall highly detailed memories regarding [=929's=] presence. Upon being presented with hostility, 929's face and cranium will split and open, revealing a number of tendrils similar in composition to organs from within the created gap. 929 will kill the threat via a combination of throttling, brute force, and lashing, whereupon it will seek out a new parent.

'''SCP-930''' is a tropical island approximately 710m in diameter, with a range of 680-760m, although accurate shoreline measurements are impossible due to manifestation of its primary effects. Refuse retrieved during exploration attempts suggest that humans may have once lived on the island. Several species of birds, dubbed '''SCP-930-1''', inhabit the island, with birds introduced to the area becoming instances if released for extended periods. Studies of social interaction between 930-1 and introduced species show that exhibited behavior is primarily the species' standard for a predation warning, although no fauna able to prey on 930-1 have been discovered. Sea-faring vessels, such as boats or personal watercraft, trigger an immediate response from 930-1 when approaching the shore of the island. The birds will immediately take flight and circle the island. Attempts to deter them have no effect, including the use of gunfire and explosives. They will steadily increase in numbers, reaching peak concentration roughly 7.0 minutes after the phenomenon is triggered. 930-1 shows hostility towards all humans after they disembark, to the extent of inflicting non-lethal wounds, and will only return to a passive state once the intruders leave. In spite of this, the birds seem to have their own reasons for wanting humans to keep away from the island.

'''SCP-932''' is a race of creatures that are able to adjust the refractive indices of their bodies in order to appear invisible. The ability seems to be disrupted when 932 instances are exposed to sound; a loud tone of 510 Hz neutralizes it completely. When visible, the creatures resemble pale and featureless children. In large numbers, they have been able to pin down and fully immobilize an adult human. 932 "hunts" by silently following an individual to their residence in groups of no more than 8 individuals. If necessary, they will lie in wait near or under the victim's bed for several hours until they enter REM sleep. When the victim enters this state, the pack will pin them down, secreting an unknown pheromone that causes the victim to wake before the REM cycle is complete. In most cases, the victim will be conscious but immobile, leading to a general feeling of panic. For all intents and purposes, 932 feeds on peoples’ fear. It is unknown how this mechanism works, or how it detects REM sleep in its victims. 932 are generally docile and do not actively attack Foundation researchers. But if their feeding schedule is disrupted for more than 21 days, they will grow more aggressive and alert to their surroundings.

'''SCP-933''' is a seemingly-innocuous roll of duct tape wielded by '''SCP-933-02''', a man in a cloak who has absolutely no facial features. While in possession of the tape, 933-02 will attempt to pin anyone he can perceive, choosing to go after the closest targets first. Once a subject has been pinned, subject, 933-02 will unroll 933 and place it over the subject's eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. He will then remove 933, completely removing that facial feature. Autopsies have shown that the amount of damage is considerable, with the affected feature being completely filled in with flesh and bone. 933-02 will continue to do this until he is stopped or all facial features of a subject are removed. Subjects afflicted by the tape will experience a strong compulsion to acquire the roll, augmented by an unexplained mechanism allowing them to locate it at long distances. While all affected subjects have identical behavior to 933-02, none of them possess his formidable strength or resilience, and have been terminated with no more force than it would take to kill an ordinary person.

'''SCP-934''' is a lighthouse built by a deceased scientist, situated on his property despite the fact that said property is nearly 65 km from any body of water. Every seven days, the area surrounding the lighthouse becomes shrouded in a dense fog that obscures all view of the structure and the surrounding. During this time, 934 becomes active and emits a strong beam of light consistent with a normal lighthouse. This fog appears to have anomalous properties, as it causes all electronics within to behave erratically or malfunction. Any person who enters the fog during its active period has never been seen or heard from again. The fog persists for approximately 24 hours before dissipating.

'''SCP-935''' is a box of playing cards appearing to date from 17th century Germany. All the cards are well worn, but in playable condition. The box has the words "Know this: that I have faith in your life, and not in your death" written on it. If any card is displaced 3m or more from the box, the entire set will instantly be teleported into the box. If the cards themselves are damaged or altered in any way, they will remain in the same condition until they relocate again, which will repair all damages. The cards also seem to be connected with the Bowe family, as any member of said family who reaches the age of 41 will have 935 will teleporting itself to their possession. Almost all Bowe family members who have possessed 935 have gone missing within 78 hours of coming into possession of it. After appearing in the subject’s possession, one card in the deck will have detailed instructions on a specific card game to be played by the subject, with the caveat that cheating will result in the subject’s demise.

'''SCP-936''' is a species of deciduous, self-pollinating tree resembling the beech inhabiting northern and eastern Europe, most notably clustering around Ukraine. It has been shown that the roots of 936 are host to nitrogen-fixing bacteria, similarly to legumes. 936 is monoecious, and during its flowering period, specimens can be recognized by an unusually high male to female flower ratio. On average, it is rare for more than a single fruit to reach maturity. These fruits, classified '''SCP-936-1''', are each covered in a green cupule, and rapidly grows towards its ripe mass of 85kg. Dissection has revealed the inside of 936-1 contains a length of stem wrapping around a structure closely resembling a human body, designated '''SCP-936-2'''. Tissue samples obtained from 936-1 physiologically resemble human tissue, possessing functionality in most aspects. As 936-1 reaches maturity, the stem thickens considerably and the cupule wilts and breaks, causing 936-2 to descend, hanging from the stem which in most cases wraps around its cervical region. The appearance of 936-2 produced by a single 936 specimen varies in size, visual appearance, and apparent gender with no discernible pattern. The seeds within 936-2 have a thick skin, and take approximately sixteen months to germinate.

'''SCP-937''' is a strangler fig which appears similar to other trees of its species for most of its life cycle, although its reproductive process is unique. When maturing, the tree begins to produce self-pollinating flowers and bearing fruit, designated '''SCP-937-2'''. When developed, the "fruit" are insectoid in appearance, with a head, thorax, abdomen, and six legs growing up to five centimeters in length. 937-2 have a convergent anatomy with insects, including a cellulose exoskeleton, spiracles and heart analogues, but no proper digestive tract. They also have leafy growths on the back that resemble wings, with ripe specimens hardening to a flattened wing of fibrous, papery tissue reminiscent of a maple seed's rotors. Once fully developed, an individual will detach itself temporarily, whereupon it will walk around and tend its parent tree. The fruit will forage for plant and animal matter to use as fertilizer for the roots of its host plant and any other nearby instances of 937. The various subtypes of fruit behave in a manner similar to ants, with the parent plant functioning as both hive and queen. 937-2 also behave like ants in terms of behavior toward anything outside of their species. They are equipped with a sting which induces necrosis at the site very quickly, and will work together to overwhelm threats such as small mammals. Once ripe, 937-2 will climb as high as possible and glide to other trees, where they will germinate and eventually extend roots to the ground and foliage upward.

'''SCP-938''' is a predatory entity composed of pure electricity, with an intensity similar to that of a moderate electrical storm, which it frequently travels with. It is capable of entering electrical grids through lightning strikes, often causing a temporary loss of power. Upon infiltrating a grid, 938 typically selects a single occupied structure to monitor. While dormant within power grids, the only known indication of 938's presence are anomalous readings by devices sensitive to electromagnetic fields. 938 becomes active upon an electrical storm entering within approximately five kilometers of its current location. Its behavior during this period is characterized by interference with electrical devices. Individuals who attempt to interact with affected devices are electrocuted. Shortly afterward, 938 returns to the atmosphere as lightning, rapidly dissociating to electrical potential and returning to its free state.

'''SCP-939''' is a race of endothermic, pack-based predators of unknown origin. They do not possess many vital organs, a central and peripheral nervous system, a circulatory system, or a digestive tract. The respiratory system is atrophied and serves no apparent purpose beyond spreading AMN-C227, an aerosol amnestic. The creatures have no apparent physiological need to feed, nor do they have any way to digest consumed tissue. Despite the absence of vital organ systems, 939 are capable of bearing live young. The creatures’ primary method of luring prey is the imitation of human speech in the voices of prior victims, though imitation of other species has been documented. These vocalizations often imply significant distress, though whether the creatures actually understand their vocalizations or are simply repeating previously heard phrases is the subject of ongoing debate. Analysis of the vocalizations cannot distinguish between 939 and samples of known victims' voices. Once lured to the pack’s location, the prey is usually killed with a single bite to the cranium or neck, the forces having been measured in excess of 35 [=MPa=].

'''SCP-940''' is a parasitoid organism with strong similarities to spiders. Adult specimens are highly agile and possess leg spans from four to seven meters. Each of their eight translucent legs is dotted regularly with six types of specialized sensory organs, and end in large tarsal claws common amongst species of hunting spiders, allowing them to climb sheer vertical surfaces with ease. 940 also possesses a radial nerve net similar to the common starfish, with no central nervous system. Infection of the human body occurs following exposure to body fluids containing eggs and larvae, where they will subject the host to internal damages and bodily malformation as they mature, ultimately killing the host and puppeteering its corpse.

'''SCP-941''' is a viral phenomenon affecting gasoline-powered automobiles. Infected vehicles will indicate a variety of malfunctions that typically manifest over a period of three to five days. Affected devices are permanently contagious following infection, even after the symptomatic phase ends. Although no actual mechanical errors have been known to manifest in infected machines, drivers will report hearing unusual noises and changes in the “feel” of the vehicle during normal operations. In addition, when affected machines are tested in harsh terrain and climates, or used for more than three hours, they may cease operations entirely without apparent cause. Electronic systems such as GPS, or screen-based control consoles in newer vehicles, may exhibit unusual graphical and auditory glitches. Navigational equipment will attempt to steer the user away from highly-trafficked areas, or the aforementioned extreme terrain and change the user's destination to car washes, high-end parking garages or auto dealerships. 941 spreads to other automobiles through direct contact and proximity. Research has shown that automobiles kept in adjacent space to infected machines may begin displaying symptoms which occur intermittently and fade overtime.

'''SCP-942''' is a small bubble gum machine for home use. Preliminary testing has shown that the dispenser can be damaged normally and is primarily composed of an unremarkable plastic. The words "Try something different today! Sweet and candy-red!" are engraved on the underside of the machine. The primary anomalous feature of 942 is its ability to produce an infinite supply of '''SCP-942-1''', colored gumballs of standard size. When an instance of 942-1 is ingested, the consumer's bodily fluids will take on the appearance of blood upon exiting the subject's body. The fluids will coagulate like normal blood, and are indistinguishable from regular blood by sight, smell, and touch. Observation by means of chemical analysis or infrared spectroscopy will indicate the original substance. Other than coagulation the fluids show no anomalous reactions or chemical processes. The subject's actual blood and the properties of bodily fluids remaining inside the body appear to be unaffected. The nasal cavity and the surface of the eye are not free from the effect, resulting in the appearance of blood-shot eyes, tears of blood, and constant low-intensity nosebleeds in affected subjects. Regions prone to will be covered near-perpetually in crusts of dried blood, and affected subjects have reported considerable discomfort during urination. Affected subjects have been known to suffer panic attacks after exposure, where they will attempt to remove the excess blood, in some cases leading to severe bodily harm and dehydration.

'''SCP-945''' is an Egyptian ''shawabti'' box dating from approximately 1500-1300 BCE, currently holding 186 recently sculpted clay ''shawabti'' figures, designated '''SCP-945-2''' to '''-187'''. The inscriptions on the box and the ''shawabti'' figurines are invocations to call them to do the labor of deceased individuals. When an individual who had previous contact with 945 passes away, the box and sculptures will vanish. Within the next 24 hours, a crude clay replica of the deceased will manifest within a one-mile radius of 945, tending to appear near the box or in the former living area of the deceased individual, manifesting and travelling by stepping out of an appropriately sized flat surface, usually on a wall or closed door. If any other applicable individuals pass away, the initial replica will begin sculpting new figurines to place inside 945. Once the new figurines have been placed in the box clay replicas of the other individuals will manifest. The replicas will display the basic properties of the deceased individuals they are based upon. They have memories and knowledge relevant to the profession of the individual, and the basic physical capabilities required to perform their tasks. Although they can speak, see, hear and smell, their facial features are inanimate.

'''SCP-946''' is a wooden table with two accompanying chairs. At unpredictable intervals ranging from 2 to 4 times per week, two men (designated '''SCP-946-1''' and '''SCP-946-2''') will manifest and take the two seats. 946-1 and 946-2 physically appear to be normal humans. 946-1 is a tall black man with short grey hair and a long beard referred to as "'''Harmon'''". 946-2 is a thin bald white man, who is referred to as "'''Garcian'''". The men will engage in a civil argument or debate about a random subject. The topic of these arguments has varied from existential concepts to trivial and mundane subjects. In some circumstances, the debates have focused on a hypothetical event and the merits of its occurrence. In these cases, the outcome of the argument manifests itself in reality. Both men seem capable of creating three-dimensional images and summoning small objects as a means of simulating events or providing information.

'''SCP-948''' is '''Seamus Ó Tuathail''', a former surgeon of Mater Hospital, Dublin who has since been continuously lecturing on a variety of medical subjects in the Pythagoras Theatre of Trinity College, located in the same town. Seamus demonstrates physical signs of extreme emaciation and sleep deprivation, but he does not seem to require food, drink, or sleep, and commonly refuses them when offered, preferring not to interrupt his lectures. He becomes extremely aggravated if he is removed from the theatre or is otherwise prevented from lecturing, often requiring physical restraint. Despite this, he has proven amicable in all other aspects of interaction, allowing containment procedures and testing to go ahead without argument so long as they don't impede his lecturing. Seamus' lectures show an anomalous healing effect, with physically injured subjects introduced to his theatre healing as he discusses relevant medical procedures. This effect does not seem to be any more effective than traditional medicine, but can offer improvement when used in conjunction. Seamus also does not display any healing effect with injuries or illnesses he is unfamiliar with. The lectures also display a secondary calming effect, as many people entering the room while Seamus is lecturing report feeling refreshed and safe regardless of their previous condition, though prolonged exposure to the effect can lead to short-term dizziness and trouble with fine motor skills.

'''SCP-949''' is an amusement park founded and constructed by Dr. Wondertainment, designated "'''Wondertainment Land®'''". Posters and souvenirs for purchase inside the park advertise several contained [=SCPs=] originating from Dr. Wondertainment. The park has been observed to periodically disappear from its location on several occasions, often reappearing several days after with new attractions. The attractions inside Wondertainment Land demonstrate highly anomalous properties, but they do not appear to intentionally cause harm to humans. All of these attractions are staffed and maintained by instances of '''SCP-949-1'''. 949-1 appear similar to typical amusement park mascots, their costumes depicting a variety of animals. All instances of 949-1 seem to wear a unique costume, and no duplicates have been sighted to date. 949-1 instances constantly maintain a cheerful attitude to visitors of the park, even when dissected or otherwise injured. Autopsies show that their interior is composed entirely of wool, confirming a lack of human presence.

'''SCP-950''' is a black-colored clothes dryer manufactured by GE, though the company has never made them in black. When the machine is started on any setting, any laundry within goes through a normal tumble-dry. Halfway through the determined cycle, however, the contents will change or disappear entirely. When the cycle ends and the door is opened, a collection of clothing entirely different from what was put in is found inside. Objects that are not clothing also go through this process, ending up as laundry in the same manner. No transformation occurs when the machine is empty. All tests have shown that the resulting laundry has never been seen by the person who owned the input clothing. The output articles are also much dirtier than those input, often covered in stains. Bodily fluids of all known kinds have been recorded on various articles of clothing, and several of them have been found to house contagious viruses. Occasionally, some articles have tears and cuts, appearing to have been made by various kind of weapons.

'''SCP-951''' is a glitch manifesting inside "''Pauper: Rise of the Monster King''" ('''SCP-951-1'''), a turn based role-playing game for the Sega Genesis. The glitch, nicknamed "'''LUCAS'''" in-game, has been found in approximately 1 out of every 3 cartridges, but there does not appear to be any recognizable pattern found among the affected cartridges. ROM image files of affected copies of the game appear to have the same anomalous properties as physical cartridges. LUCAS does not have a defined figure, instead displaying as a block of randomized pixels. At specific scripted points of the game, LUCAS will produce dialogue in the form of mostly garbled text, though recognizable words such as “friend” and "play" have been observed. Repeated tests of these events have shown that the dialogue changes with each play through. Outside of scripted encounters, LUCAS has displayed the ability to communicate with Foundation personnel through dialog boxes outside of battles, understanding the vocalizations of researchers. LUCAS appears to be very friendly when communicating, and often suggests methods of working through the game quickly and effectively. LUCAS will continue to increase in power as the player does, assisting the player with each battle. If the game is beaten using LUCAS, the ending cutscene detailing the fates of each of the characters plays as normal, with the exception of the dialogue "LUCAS made a new friend, and will always cherish the time they had playing together. Thank you for knowing me." Starting a new game after completion and performing the glitch will result LUCAS reincarnating with no memory of the player or any conversations it may have had.

'''SCP-954''' is a species of frog similar to the Rio Grande Chirping Frog. Unlike the chirping frog, however, 954's vocalizations are not within human hearing range. The anomalous properties of 954 are observed when it vocalizes in the presence of other organisms. The frogs’ vocalizations cause slight hallucinations in human subjects, by stimulating the temporoparietal lobe of the brain. This effect causes the phenomenon known as "shadow people." The effect is commonly described as seeing a shadowy figure in one’s peripheral vision, which moves quickly out of visual range when focused upon. 954's effect has been observed to be used in order to disorient various insects, causing their movements to become erratic. It is unknown precisely how the vocalizations affect insects, as they lack the complex brain structures of humans. Most subjects report a feeling of disorientation after being exposed to the effect, which usually lasts for less than two hours.

'''SCP-955''' is a species of land-dwelling arthropod-like creatures native to temperate areas of North America. The creatures average between 20 and 200 centimeters in length and feature a bulbous head superficially resembling that of a deep-sea fish, a large mouth with extensive dentition surrounded by flagellum-like organs, two eyes on crests atop the head, a large antenna-like organ between the eyes, fin-like protuberances near the back of the head, and a long segmented body plan featuring multiple pairs of legs. 955 appears to possess a level of intelligence roughly comparable to a puppy, being curious, highly social, playful, and attracted to bright colors, high-pitched sounds, and sugar. When encountering one or more humans in wooded-but-populated areas, playing fields, or schoolyards, the creatures, attracted by activity or scents, will rapidly approach the humans while wriggling their facial organs and flapping its fins while emitting a growling/hissing sound, signaling excitement and a desire to interact with the humans in a friendly or playful manner. If threatened, 955 will lift its head and thorax off the ground while emitting a shrieking cry, before projecting a viscous, sticky, foul-smelling, and caustic mucus in several directions from its mouth and protuberances. Mature specimens are capable of firing the mucus for a distance of several meters. This mucus is corrosive to metals and most organic materials, and contains a neurotoxin which makes unprotected skin contact extremely painful. 955 appears to be perceived differently by small children, as they do not see it as threatening or ugly.

'''SCP-956''' is a piñata resembling an unknown quadruped. Tests have revealed that, although superficially similar to paper-mache, 956 is constructed of various amounts of glue, sugar, an unidentified fur, and human tissue and has also shown to be highly resistant to almost any sort of damage. 956 largely remains in a passive state where it shows no signs of locomotion, intelligence, or hostility. The piñata enters its active state when a human child under the age of 12 approaches within 5 meters of it. Approximately 7 to 28 seconds after entering the active zone, the child becomes incapable of motion or speech, although it remains alive. 956 will then move towards the victim and bludgeon them until the torso ruptures. Upon rupturing, the victim's body discharges a large pile of unmarked candy made from their innards, designated as '''SCP-956-1'''. The piñata will repeat this process on any other victims before returning to its docile state.

'''SCP-957''' is a humanoid entity currently residing within a house in Kentucky. It appears to be devoid of internal organs, as observed via a large opening on its torso. It also does not appear to require sleep or nourishment. Interactions with personnel has shown that 957 is capable of speech and is fluent in English, but it prefers to talk in a currently unknown language. It is not openly hostile towards Foundation personnel, yet often refuses to cooperate with them. 957 will always reside in a house inhabited by a single human, hereby designated '''SCP-957-1'''. When the instance of 957-1 that the entity is living with dies, the entity will disappear from the location and reappear in the nearest location that fits its requirements. Upon doing this, it will seek out the individual residing there and force the human's body through an apparent portal inside its chest cavity, where they will remain for approximately four hours before emerging. After this, 957-1 will be missing its eyes and exhibit drastic changes to its memory. Affected individuals will believe that they have been blind all their life and possess knowledge of Braille. Additionally, they will believe that 957 is a beloved family member, a close friend, or a partner in an intimate relationship that had been severely burned all over its body. It is also hinted that 957 subjects humans to this process under the orders of an unknown party.

'''SCP-958''' is "'''General Beep'''", a toy robot composed primarily of plastic and tin. Like 846 (Robo-Dude), the toy is manufactured by Dr. Wondertainment. When activated via a switch on the back of his head, General Beep becomes capable of speech and limited autonomous movement. He will use these skills to actively seek out a child under the age of thirteen. When exposed to such a child, the General will frequently discuss historical military accomplishments and will often suggest exposing more children to him. These conversations exhibit no compulsive effects, and the child is able to deactivate him via his switch without any resistance. Should the child express interest in what Beep has to say, or plays with him for six hours, he will give the child information on how to build an instance of '''SCP-958-B''', functioning weapons created from a wide variety of miscellaneous objects that vary greatly in appearance and function. The ammunition and payloads used by 958-B are unconventional and/or anomalous, including bursts of paint, toys and plush dolls ejected at high speeds, and focused beams of light capable of melting steel. The instructions that the General gives for constructing an instance of 958-B cannot be utilized by anyone other than the child in question, and all attempts by other individuals to utilize it will result in a non-anomalous creation.

'''SCP-959''' is a 35-year-old Caucasian man with brown eyes, a bald head, and a brown handlebar mustache. These features can only be observed through cameras or indirect viewing at distant ranges due to his anomalous ability. When a sentient being looks directly at 959, he will take on the appearance of a person or item from that being's memories that happens to be their greatest fear or shame. The ability seems to be completely involuntary and continuous, regardless of whether 959 is asleep or awake. Each subject tasked with directly viewing 959 during testing reported seeing him as something different, exclusive to that individual. The anomaly’s area of effect seems to extend to a 37-meter radius in all directions as long as the subject is within a direct line of sight. The effect does not occur when viewed through a secondary electronic source such as a camera. 959 himself has shown that appearing as the worst fear of every person who looks at him against his will has left him in almost constant misery.

'''SCP-960''' is a fragment of what is speculated to be an ancient Greek vase. On its surface are three Muses, two of which have been identified as Melpomene and Clio, while the third, shown as holding a dagger to her neck, has never been seen in any other piece of Greco-Roman art or any recorded myth. Shortly after a human touches 960, the subject will be struck by a series of original ideas, including a piece of classical music, an intricate choreography, a psychological insight, a work of fiction of variable length, a spiritual revelation, a work of drama, a joke, and a scientific breakthrough, all of which follow one another in the same progression. Subjects exposed to the fragment will invariably request the materials they need to complete these works and will become belligerent and uncooperative until their requests are satisfied. After the itinerary is exhausted, the inspirations become more sinister. All creative energy previously spent on the arts and sciences is then focused on devising ingenious methods of violence.

'''SCP-961''' is an iron sundial of unknown manufacture. The sundial has no markings other than Roman numerals in traditional clock formation along the edge, along with a small sticker on the bottom reading "ALEXYLVA UNIVERSITY HISTORY DEPT." When exposed to sunlight and properly aligned, 961 functions as a regular sundial without anomalous properties. When sunlight is not present, however, a dark discoloration, unable to be dispelled by light, will appear to emerge from the center and align itself at twelve o'clock. The shape will begin moving counterclockwise along the sundial's edge at usual speed. When the shape's rotation returns to XII, 961 will manifest its primary effect on anyone in a contained space with it. If in an enclosed room, the areas around the room will be unaffected. If the door is not fully closed, the effect will expand to include the widest possible contained area. The sundial’s primary effect takes the form of sudden unconsciousness and vivid hallucinations affecting all people in range. All affected people will experience the same hallucination during any cycle, the hallucination always taking the form of an event in the past, usually of historical importance. The event will play out before them for exactly ten minutes, including the climax. During this time, a person will play a vital role in the unfolding event. This entity, deemed '''SCP-961-1''', varies in physical appearance and dress with each test. The only consistent feature described by observers is a pair of empty black holes centered where the eyes should be. People nearby will converse with the 961-1 without finding the apertures remarkable. At the end of many hallucinations, after the entity ceases to influence events, it will turn towards one of the observers and speak to them, then the hallucination ends. The observer will not recall what was said to them, only a strong sense of fear or panic, as well as developing an acute phobia of sleep, darkness, and being alone, which will subside over the course of the following month.

'''SCP-962''' is a large metal tower made primarily of steel located in a mountainous valley. The tower is constructed in a manner so that it twists and tapers as it rises from the ground. 962 produces and controls an estimated 13,500 "servitors", collectively designated '''SCP-962-1'''. 962-1 are animals with cybernetic augmentations, which usually force them into a bipedal gait, and are often accompanied by crude cosmetic alterations such as the removal of a snout, with the apparent goal of making the servitors appear human-like. The nervous system is mapped with implanted electrodes, which allows instances to be controlled by a central source, assumed to be the tower itself. The servitors fulfill a number of roles, mining for ore in an extensive system of tunnels excavated below the valley, or repairing damage to the 962 and each other. Some construct roads to facilitate movement of servitors, and those which remain hunt down and destroy all non-human life in the valley. The corpses of animals killed in these hunts are brought back to 962 for conversion into 962-1. Approximately 60 times per day, the tower will release a hydrogen-filled balloon from an aperture near its top. These balloons are made from animal tissue of varying species, believed to be from the animals brought in by 962-1. Attached to each balloon is a manuscript, written in English. The length, content, and style of writing varies greatly, as they take forms of poems, novels, and essays. The manuscripts exhibit no anomalous properties, but they are extremely high writing quality, strongly suggesting that 962 possesses sapience. These writings also possess an essence of general optimism present in these writings, 962 creating them explicitly to praise humankind.

'''SCP-963''' is an ornate amulet made from white gold, with thirteen cut diamonds surrounding an ovoid ruby in a starburst pattern. Junior Staff researcher Jack Bright, assigned with researching the amulet’s capabilities, was killed by 076-2 (Able), who had broken containment, while transporting 963 by hand. After much experimentation, it has been discovered that when any living anthropoid comes into direct skin contact with 963, Dr. Bright, whose mind/soul/consciousness had been absorbed by the artifact, completely possesses the subject. In this way, Dr. Bright is able to transfer his personality from host to host, and is even able to possess multiple subjects at once. If a subject maintains contact with 963 for 30 days, their brain functions become a duplicate of Dr. Bright's. If the object is removed after this time period, the subject retains an independent copy of Bright’s consciousness. Though numerous sanctions were put in place to prevent multiple copies of Dr. Bright from being created to prevent the doctor from collaborating with himself, it was found this was not necessary, as Dr. Bright has proven himself thoroughly dedicated to the Foundation and its cause, and continues his job in spite of his new abilities.

'''SCP-964''' is a prototype active camouflage system, developed under contract with the Department of Defense. 964 displays the ability to reconstruct itself on the atomic level. The process can take up to 16 hours, and causes a complete change of the object's appearance, physical properties, and chemical composition. The result is usually a solid, commonly-encountered object weighing between 2 and 100 kg that does not display dangerous or anomalous properties. In rare cases, the system has been observed changing into high-energy, radioactive, or explosive objects, unenclosed fluids, living entities, and objects with mass up to 65 tons have been observed. 964 will initiate the process whenever it "detects" data related to its current manifestation, encompassing all known data formats and storage mediums, including text, photographs, encrypted data, and human long-term memory. The reaction can be delayed by increasing the medium's complexity and distance from 964, though no method of completely stopping it has been found so far.

'''SCP-965''' is a visual manifestation that occurs within framed windows. The manifestation takes the shape of a pale-skinned male humanoid with a shadowed face that stares through the window. Sufficient details show the face to consistently fluctuate appearances at differing points of its life, between the approximate ages of 10 and 55. 965 will only appear when the relative lighting on the "outside" of the window falls below 5 candelas, regardless of lighting on the "inside." These terms are possible because the face will only appear in a fully assembled window frame, though it does not need to be currently installed. 965 has currently not shown any ability to intentionally move from one pane of glass, even within the same window; it is only able to attain a new manifestation point upon the destruction of pane it currently inhabits. The face is visible from the outside portion of its current pane, designated '''SCP-965-1''', but is described as "looking away" despite its two-dimensional nature. Initial effects caused by the face are unease, nervousness, and low-grade paranoia which will overcome anyone within visual range of the manifestation, even if obscured. A subject sleeping in any area visible to 965 when it manifests will invariably have dreams of a disturbing nature, usually involving being chased, attacked, or otherwise tormented by the face. 965 has not produced any noise as of yet, and there have been no reported instances of it animating once it appears, though it is capable of disappearing and reappearing in different poses. The face also shows signs of sentience, having been observed to show disappointment if it manifests to an empty room, or anger when manifesting before someone that had broken the previous iteration of 965-1.

'''SCP-966''' are '''Sleep Killers''', a species of predatory creature resembling hairless, digitigrade humans possessing an elongated face with a mouth lined with needle-like teeth. Sleep Killers are physically weak, possessing hollow bones and low muscular density. They do not seem to rest through sleep; instead, they will suddenly cease all movement at seemingly random intervals of time, resuming normal activity three to five minutes later. The creatures are only visible at wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to about 900 nm. They feed on medium-to-large-sized animals, including humans. Their hunting methods consist of emitting a single burst of a previously unknown type of radioactive wave, which permanently inhibits the ability of the affected creature to enter any NREM and REM sleep stage. After depriving their victims of sleep, the creatures will stalk their prey until the lack of rest incapacitates it, whereupon they will pounce and consume it. On occasion, the Killers will deliberately make threatening noises around the prey in order to further stress it, and may even physically assault them if the victim proves to be particularly durable. Though the Foundation has greatly thinned their numbers since discovery, Sleep Killers are noted to be found in the wild all throughout the world.

'''SCP-967''' is an abandoned scrapyard that has been measured at approximately 200m x 500m. 967 is much larger than its exterior dimensions would suggest. Several regions within the scrapyard are only accessible by foot, and extend into an anomalous area of space. Exploration teams have described this area as consisting of "trash as far as the eye can see". The landscape is composed entirely of items consistent with a scrapyard: old cars, abandoned trains, disused watercraft, and mountains of broken appliances. 967 has since been found to be inhabited also reported the presence of a wide variety of ambulatory creatures, collectively designated '''SCP-967-1'''. The creatures appear to be haphazardly constructed from the same materials as the landscape, and may or may not be individually intelligent or aggressive. Instances of 967-1 taken beyond the borders of the scrapyard undergo mechanical degradation, with their component parts collapsing into a disconnected heap.

'''SCP-968''' is a black, adhesive, high-viscosity substance reminiscent of tar or oil, commonly referred to as the "'''Tar Baby'''". Current research has found that it is composed of a colony of fibrous protozoa working together without any structure, central nervous system, or endocrine system, despite observations of cellular coordination. Similar to the flexing properties of an animal muscle, these protozoa are capable of pulling on one another with combined strength. Specialized flagella along their surfaces allow for the gripping of prey and surfaces, but 968 is incapable of any significant locomotion without tendons, ligaments, or skeletal material to support itself. The "Tar Baby" "hunts" by mimicking the appearance of a wounded animal to lure that species’ predators to attack it. In the presence of humans, it has "learned" to mimic a trapped infant to lure in sympathetic victims. Once ensnared, prey often strengthen the adhesion by struggling against the colony, similar to quicksand. 968 will then dismember its prey to pieces small enough to digest on a cellular level. Though the "Tar Baby" has shown a heightened level of intelligence, and responds to extreme heat and cold with hostility, it appears to have a single-minded devotion to feeding itself.

'''SCP-969''' is a brand of packaged insect repellent apparently distributed by a corporation with no physical or online records. 969 packages are known to spontaneously manifest, with preset prices, on the shelves and records of convenience stores in the United States and Canada. 969's packaging claims that approximately 19% of the substance is composed of an unknown chemical implied to be the active ingredient of the repellent. Using 969 in any way other than recommended on the packaging’s instructions results in various immediate and/or chronic anomalous effects on a human subject, including the repulsion of clothing from skin, a deafening buzzing sound heard in the ears, the inability to grasp or hold objects, a staunch refusal of any sort of shelter, and contraction of plastic to the point of death.

'''SCP-970''' is a spatial phenomenon where a collection of rooms loop or overlap on themselves. In all recorded cases, this is performed by way of a series of doors appearing in the walls, all in a straight line, so it is possible to walk forwards and end up at the starting position. The alteration to the rooms does not affect any neighboring rooms and floors. There is currently no known explanation for the appearance of this phenomenon. The first example of the phenomenon documented, designated '''SCP-970-01''', is a cell-block within Sector 19, constructed with the intent of housing D Class personnel, who used the phenomenon as an attempt to break containment breached containment in an escape attempt. Since then, numerous examples of 970 have been discovered in an 800-kilometer radius of Sector 19.

'''SCP-971''' is a menu printed on a standard sheet of printer paper, advertising a delivery service known as "'''Quik 'n Ready Mealz'''". The menu lists the company name, a phone number, and several different fast food items, each preceded by an item code. The menu features no prices or pictures of the food, and the typeface and design are both minimal and simplistic. When holding 971 and calling the number, the caller will be sent to an automated menu system, which will prompt the caller to input the item codes for the food they desire, as well as their credit card number to pay for the order. Once both numbers are input, the automated system will tell the caller the total price, thank them, and then disconnect. The caller's credit card will be immediately charged for the total price of the order, plus the local tax rate for prepared food. 15 to 20 minutes after the call, a paper bag with the Quik n' Ready Mealz logo (designated '''SCP-971-1''') will manifest near the caller, almost always appearing when all potential observers in the area have their attention diverted elsewhere. 971-1 will contain the same items chosen on the menu, and all items will be cooked and prepared to normal health standards. DNA testing has confirmed that all meat used in this food comes from animals recognized as endangered both by the EEC's Endangered Species List and the general public. While 971 and the food it advertises features no memetic properties, testing has been put on hold after reports of sudden loss of weight and muscle mass in endangered animals from several zoos.

'''SCP-972''' is '''Ahmet Osman''', a 23-year-old Turkish man whose anomalous property is a mutualistic relationship with '''SCP-972-1''', an anomalous double stranded DNA virus that resembles hepatitis, uniquely limited to him. 972-1 possesses a unique reproductive life cycle that enables it to remain in nucleocapsid form for long periods of time within Ahmet’s host cells, essentially enabling it to remain "dormant" for long periods of time without being degraded. The presence of 972-1 has been found in nearly every cell that compromises Ahmet’s body, with the sole exception of his sperm. Ahmet’s primary anomalous effect triggers when he is infected by any foreign viral or bacterial agents. In both cases, 972-1 is acts to eliminate the infection and preserve host cells. Upon contact with infectious bacteria, the host cell will over-stimulate lysosome activity, creating hydrolytic enzymes that rapidly destroy all phagocytized bacteria. The means by which 972-1 is able to recognize hostile activity is unknown, but it has shown itself to identify and neutralize infections and viruses of anomalous nature. As a result of this relationship, Ahmet is effectively immune to all known forms of infectious disease. Any introduction of infection to his body results in complete destruction within a period ranging from 24 hours to a week, depending on the reproductive potential of the disease in question. During this period, Ahmet experiences minor symptoms found in common diseases, such as elevated body temperature, reduced appetite, and overall lethargy, but he otherwise demonstrates no symptoms of the specific disease that he was infected with.

'''SCP-973''' is a Caucasian man in his late forties, wearing a state trooper uniform from the early 1970s. He is described as balding, slightly overweight, and having a handlebar mustache, and is dubbed "'''Smokey'''" by the Foundation. Smokey is known to manifest at night on a 60 kilometer stretch of road, and does so when another vehicle enters the designated territory, triggered by the target vehicle accelerating over a certain speed. When the speed limit is broken, Smokey will appear approximately 0.4 km behind the target vehicle inside '''SCP-973-1''', an early 1970s police cruiser in an advanced state of disrepair. Once the target is caught, Smokey will subject them to rape, beatings, and evisceration as punishment for their speeding. Only five people have survived being hunted by Smokey, all of which are in Foundation custody, suffering from varying degrees of mental trauma. The Foundation has tried to put a stop to Smokey’s brutality by attempting to capture him and destroy the road where he manifests, but they ended up giving him a more horrifying appearance and expanding his area of effect.

'''SCP-974''' is a carnivorous creature that resembles a human child. It possesses greater durability, strength, and stamina than a child of its size and does not appear to be deterred by bullets or melee weaponry, although it has been demonstrated to have an extremely adverse reaction to open flames. While 974 can briefly subsist on small animals, its primary food source is prepubescent human children. Each time it successfully consumes a child, it enters a state of torpor, where its form changes over the course of 10-12 days to replicate the most recently consumed child. 974's preferred habitat is lightly wooded areas such as parks or undeveloped land near moderately populated human settlements. Once it has settled into a new territory, it uses the local vegetation and other available materials to create between 1 to 5 crudely built, one-room structures, usually placed in the lower limbs of a tree or on low rises of land, designated '''SCP-974-2'''. Once an of 974-2 has been built, the creature will seek to lure a group of between 2 and 5 children to the structure asking them to follow it in the hopes of playing. The behavior pattern can last up to a week before 974 invites a single child to play with it alone. At this point, whether the target accepts or declines the offer, 974 will dismember and devour the target, and will abandon 974-2 after this, although it will remain in the territory until the local population of children is depleted. The creature also displays a heightened "fight or flight" reaction to the presence of post-pubescent humans, and will immediately attempt to flee to an instance of 974-2 if visible to such an individual. If retreat is not an option, it becomes highly aggressive and will attack all known post-pubescent individuals.

'''SCP-975''' is a hole approximately 1.2 m in diameter, located in an abandoned subway tunnel, which has been in disuse for at least 40 years. The hole appears to be lined or composed of organic substances, and does not appear to extend beyond the ceiling of the tunnel, despite its significant depth while open. Periodically, 975 will open and discharge a single instance of '''SCP-975-2''', a race of extraterrestrial creatures which superficially resemble frogs, though they do not resemble any known amphibians and do not appear to have terrestrial physiology. There are currently 33 instances of 975-2 in containment. The creatures show themselves as highly intelligent, and have acquired the ability to communicate in English over a period of only six months. Interviews with researchers has led the Foundation to discover that 975-2 escaped their home planet because they were fleeing from something which may or may not have followed them to Earth.

'''SCP-976''' is a Western Digital hard drive with an indicated capacity of 32 GB. The drive has shown itself to be unusually heavy, and all attempts to disassemble its external casing have failed thus far. When connected to a standard PC and activated, 976 operates normally, but with an abnormally high-pitched hum that does not match any known hard drive model. When read using a specially-designed interface, 976 appears to contain a 32 GB 'slice' of a larger data repository. The "slice" changes position every 24 hours at exactly 11:53 AM, thus necessitating all data be downloaded daily for analysis. Reconstructed files from the drive showcase several fragments of news reports, including images and partial videos, archives documenting the use of technology that has not been invented, or was never pursued in modern science, and the descriptions, experiment logs, and containment procedures for [=SCPs=] that do not exist. All data recovered matches standard Foundation data formats, but doesn’t seem to correspond to data found in Foundation archives. For these reasons, it is currently theorized that 976 may be a "window" into the archive from a Foundation in an alternate timeline or universe.

'''SCP-977''' is a warehouse located in an industrial district that was owned by several companies over a number of years before the Foundation bought it. Numerous contradictions in the documentation recovered on the leases suggests that these operations were not functioning companies, but covert operations for as yet unidentified groups of interest. 977 is outwardly unremarkable and completely empty aside from the security station. Along with a single open storage space typical of a warehouse, the structure contains a number of irregular rooms and corridors, many of which are sunken below street level at varying depths, all characterized by unusual plateaus, varying ceiling heights, and raised platforms. The security station can be accessed via a stairwell next to Docking Bay C. The monitors within, which have black and white displays and do not receive sound, are divided into two groups of eighteen, designated '''Group-1''' and '''Group-2'''. Group-1 receives signals from an unidentified source, showing numerous unconscious people, visible from the shoulders upwards, wearing identical unisex hospital gowns. These images cycle at eight minute intervals, with a new image/subject replacing the previous one. Group-2 receives images of rooms and hallways that match the characteristics of the rooms already contained within the complex. While some of these images are verifiably originating from rooms within the warehouse itself, several others do not match the layout of any known room. The last three monitors in Group-2 do not receive any signal. The station also features a console with a text-based command input running a unique operating system with a yet-to-be-determined functionality and interface.

'''SCP-978''' is a standard red-and-black Polaroid Supercolor 645 CL instant camera, with no distinctive damage or identifying marks. 978 operates the same as a standard camera, and shows no anomalous behavior beyond the photographs it produces. When a subject is pictured with the camera, the photograph that develops showcases the subject doing what they wanted to be doing instead of what they were doing at the time they were photographed. The effect appears to be random, sometimes showing drastic changes and deeply suppressed desires, or simple changes and alterations to the subject or their surroundings. The camera appears to be capable of expressing the desires of both humans and other creatures, and appears to convey the simplest desires the easiest.

'''SCP-979''' is an animate stoneware figurine in the shape of a rabbit. The figurine shows subtle differences from traditional rabbits, including the ability to express emotion through facial changes and posture congruent with typical human reactions. 979 lacks proper anatomy, with its ears and back legs being too long and large, and therefore experiences extreme difficulty with normal movement. The figurine’s behavior shows some sentience, but it generally only reacts to any stimuli with fear and/or avoidance. 979 emits a high-frequency noise in response to stimuli; the volume appearing proportionate to its level of distress. Extended proximity to 979 causes synesthesia of all senses, typically manifesting after four hours and escalating over a variable period of approximately three weeks. Exposure to the noise has been shown to increase the rate at which the synesthesia develops. Humans exposed to 979 tend to describe a “whispering, rustling voice” associated with the sensation of touch and will avoid any physical contact with anything as much as possible. Within one week, exposure to 979 causes synesthesia in at least three senses, although which three tends to be dependent on the specific person. A level of psychosis appears to develop at this stage, although whether or not it is from mental disturbance of the synesthesia or something else is unknown. After two weeks, synesthesia spreads to all senses, although certain senses appear to be less intrusive than others, depending on the specific patient. Three weeks after exposure, the synesthesia develops fully in all the senses, with subjects appearing to attempt interaction with hallucinations before falling into a catatonic state. Five weeks after infection, one subject was discovered with a large gash in his torso, his organs having been pulled out of the cavity.

'''SCP-980''' is a featureless humanoid of average height and weight, indeterminate age and gender, and smooth gray-white skin. 980 does not possess any facial features, sensory organs, nails or hair. It can be injured with relative ease, bleeding a viscous substance similar to white paint. Analysis shows that 980 possesses no internal organs, though it does have a skeletal structure comparable to that of a human. Despite the absence of eyes and ears, it appears to display 20/20 vision and slightly above-average hearing. 980 is able to write in English when prompted, though typing is inefficient due to its influence quickly rendering the keys as well as the monitor unresponsive. 980 inflicts a natural "simplification effect" on every object and being within an 8-meter radius of itself. This effect streamlines the features of objects while removing color, detail, and function. Animals lose fur and distinguishing characteristics, such as length of limbs and tails, and presence of protuberances. Humans develop more average facial features and will lose or gain height and weight. This is shortly followed by human subjects losing facets of their personality, with interests, habits, and memories commonly lost first. While brief exposure to 980 is not physically harmful, prolonged exposure results in the "simplification" and fusion of parts located near one another, particularly those of the circulatory and respiratory systems which soon lead to death.

'''SCP-981''' is a film reel spooled with Kodak Panchromatic nitrate film, on which is a 16mm negative of the 1927 film ''Film/{{Metropolis}}''. This version of the film features an extended scene, approximately forty seconds long, cut between the robot being burned at the stake and the final cathedral scene, where Freder walks through an alleyway and finds the end walled off with a white wooden door. He expresses some surprise, but opens the door and walks through, followed by a text plate reading "My Lord! I’m near the Cathedral!" before the film continues as normal. The film was discovered housed in '''SCP-981-1''', a steel film canister dating from the late 1920s, with signs of damage concomitant with its apparent age. 981-1 is labelled in Spanish as having been copied by Buenos Aires Cinematographic Laboratory. Other writing on the label is too worn to read, but appears to be a name and a short note in a different handwriting. The film and its canister show no unusual markings or indications that they are anything other than a mass-produced stock for distribution to cinemas. When the film and canister are placed in proximity to any other audiovisual storage medium containing a live-action movie, the data held on the secondary medium is altered to include additional scenes of anomalous and disturbing natures, including one that hinted of a large number of unidentified [=SCPs=] loose in the world.

'''SCP-983''' is a vintage mechanical monkey with a faded date located on the bottom of the left foot, placing its manufacture at some point in the 1940s. The monkey is dressed in the remains of what used to be a vest for circus ringmasters. The monkey’s left hand holds a lightly tarnished brass bell, while the right hand holds a brass striking rod. 983 is capable of emitting speech and sound, though examination of the object has revealed no seams, screws, or openings that would indicate a method of disassembly. If the monkey comes into physical contact with an individual on their birthday, it will spring to life and do a single back flip before raising its bell and singing a 46-verse celebratory song, starting with the exclamation "A RING DING DING DING IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY!", followed by the monkey striking its bell producing a tone that varies in pitch from high to low. 983 will sing the song once every three to four seconds, pausing only to ring its bell, until the new owner has died or has sung along according to procedure. Each verse of this song appears to age the subject by one year, to the point where the subject is aged to a skeleton. By singing along with the monkey, the subject may deactivate it which, once performed successfully, will result in a triumphant declaration of "BIRTHDAY!" from the monkey, at which time it will ring the bell once and produce a single gumdrop-style candy from it. The approach of singing along with the monkey directly impacts on the color of the candy and the side effects of eating it. A perfect or near-perfect sing-along will result in crystalline and luminescent candies which restore any age lost to the song, while horrible sing-alongs result in black candies that subjects are warned not to eat.

'''SCP-984''' is a public restroom that has been partially soundproofed with commercially available materials. SCP-984 will only display anomalous properties if no persons are in any open areas of the room, at least one light fixture is turned off, and one stall is occupied by a single person. Should these conditions be met, instances of '''SCP-984-1''' will materialize inside the bathroom once the subject exits the stall. 984-1 are large, highly aggressive mammals of varying species, all of which display symptoms and mannerisms of mid- to late-stage rabies. Unlike most rabid animals, 984-1 will display marked hostility towards the subject inside 984. 984-1 will not willingly leave the bathroom for any reason, and will disappear if it is forced to do so, although they automatically disappear after 9 minutes. Not prepared to handle dangerous animals, the victims are often bitten several times before being able to properly defend themselves. Should the victim survive being attacked, they will experience significant confusion regarding the events that transpired in the restroom, attributing their injuries to mundane phenomena that would not normally cause said trauma.

'''SCP-985''' is an airport conveyor baggage claim installed at the same time as all other claims in its terminal, according to construction records. 985 operates indistinguishably from any other baggage claim when under observation, and the amount of electricity drawn by the machine remains relatively constant. Should either runway access, conveyor system, or terminal access of 985 cease being observed, the machine's electrical draw begins to fluctuate rapidly. At this point, various articles of luggage will begin to enter the observed portions of the machine, having no apparent point of entry. The items are of varying shape and size, and in some cases do not correspond to modern security requirements for luggage taken aboard airplanes. The items will continue along the conveyor until they are either taken from the line or reenter an unobserved section, at which point they disappear from the line and are no longer found. The luggage "produced" by 985 (collectively designated '''SCP-985-1''') appears to exhibit mild inhibitory effects on certain areas of the human brain, resulting in a general inability to distinguish 985-1 from normal baggage and the former being mistaken by airline passengers for their belongings and withdrawn. The effect persists upon the luggage being opened, often resulting in accidental injuries to the recipients of when they attempt to make use of the contents. Contents found within 985-1 have included a disassembled assault rifle, a crowbar, 37 knives, a bottle of discontinued shampoo that is able to denature the proteins of human hair, a plastic bottle containing highly compressed air, pieces of scrap metal, and articles of clothing made of metallic fibers which slice human skin on contact.

'''SCP-986''' is an unpublished manuscript, believed to have been written by William Faulkner. The manuscript consists of 1208 bound pages, containing an original work of fiction titled ''The Absent Willows'', and a supplementary section. At irregular intervals, typewritten text will manifest via unknown means in the manuscript’s 850-page supplemental section. While the text of ''The Absent Willows'' is written in type consistent with the Underwood Typewriter used throughout Faulkner's life, the text appearing in the supplemental section does not match any known standard typeface. The content of 986’s text invariably consists of a repeating six-character format that upon initial viewing does not appear to have any understandable content. This text currently fills 58% of the supplemental section, with the rest comprised of blank paper. It is believed that this text is a series of cyphers which add more and more stories to the manuscript.

'''SCP-987''' is a collection of mirrors ('''SCP-987-a''' through '''-m''') of various sizes and types, including medicine cabinets and wall mounted models appearing to have been manufactured between the 1940's and 1990's. The mirrors normally exhibit no anomalous characteristics other than their reflections, and photographic imaging and video recordings show a normal mirrored surface. When viewed directly, the mirrors display different scene, presumably of their previous location. Each reflection displays the violent death of a human subject, running as a loop lasting from 48 seconds to over 4 minutes. If viewed for 2 full cycles, the images change and the subjects become aware of the viewer, often soundlessly pleading for help as the scenes unfold. The aggressor will also occasionally interact with the viewer by making hostile gestures or writing on the surface of the mirror. '''SCP-987-1''' (commonly referred to as "'''The Curator'''") is an endothermic entity that can only be seen by thermographic scanning. It moves at ground level, draining heat in a radius that varies from 1 to 2 meters, and able to manipulate objects up to 150 kg in mass at a distance up to 8 meters away. "The Curator" is known to dissipate and remain undetectable for periods between 15 and 90 minutes. When the chamber is empty of personnel, "The Curator" moves about in no discernible pattern, pausing in front of different mirrors for approximately 30 minutes each. It exhibits awareness of any personnel that enter the containment area, maintaining a distance of at least 3 meters away. "The Curator" has been shown to only display aggression towards who have tampered with 987 in any manner other than cleaning them.

'''SCP-988''' is a chest composed of oak and iron. 988 possesses a latch which moves freely when not secured, and gentle manipulation of the lid has revealed it to move freely on its hinges. 988 is believed to house an irregularly shaped object, which has been felt shifting as the chest is lifted and tilted. 988 is given its name because, despite the lack of any apparent obstacle, it simply cannot be opened. All attempts to open the chest have failed due intervening circumstances. Subjects who have tried to directly open it by hand have been observed to become lost on their way to its location, suffer injuries preventing them from reaching it, and have even spontaneously died of natural causes just before completing the action. Opening 988 via machines or other indirect mechanisms have been stopped respectively by electrical shorts or mechanical jams. This phenomenon has been found to extend even to scanning 988 for its contents, as attempts at sonographic, electromagnetic, and passive imaging of emissions outside of the visual spectrum have similarly failed.

'''SCP-989''' is a mass of sugar crystals interlaced with a substance from the chemical formula [=H7Xe2O4C8.=] The method by which it was created is currently unknown, as the current principles of chemistry disagree with its composition and structure. 989 is contained within '''SCP-989-2''', an ornate silver shaker with the logo for Marshall, Carter, and Dark engraved on the bottom. There are no visible seams in the shaker, and as such there is no way known at the moment to refill it, though testing at this point has shown no measurable change in weight of the object, suggesting that 989 may replenish itself. This "replenishing" effect is only observed to occur if the object is left standing for more than two hours without movement. When 989 is released and elevated, it becomes suspended in midair. The crystals will then surround whoever threw them, and remain there for precisely 7 minutes, 18 seconds. This process has shown no adverse effect on the thrower so far, as the sugar will not come within two millimeters of the thrower, even if they walk through the cloud directly. If any other living being enters the cloud, 989 will surround the subject, and force its way into their mucous membranes, causing severe lacerations, and coating the area with crystalline formations akin to rock candy. This is uniformly non-fatal, but it leaves the subject blind and deaf, with difficulty breathing and severe pain. After exiting suspension, 989 will land on any horizontal surfaces until thrown again. The effect has been found to activate only when the sugar is dry.

'''SCP-991''' is a 19cm syringe made from steel and previously unknown materials. When inserted into the blood vessel of a human and drawn, the syringe fills with an unknown black fluid, given the designation '''SCP-991-2'''. Once drawn from an individual, the plunger of the syringe cannot be pressed unless the needle has been inserted into another human. Visual analysis of 991-2 has shown it to have a significantly lower viscosity than blood, but direct analysis has proven impossible. Attempts to draw 991-2 from a vein using a normal needle immediately after injection have been met with failure, as 991-2 either disperses or becomes immaterial upon injection. When injected, a subject will instantly take on the thoughts, emotions, and memories of the donor at the time of injection. The further back the plunger is drawn, the more potent and permanent these ideas will be. Because it is the thoughts most prevalent in the donor's mind that determine which are transferred, some level of control can be achieved. The process is imperfect, however, as unwanted ideas usually manifest alongside the desired ones. Whether this is an aspect of 991 or a lack of focus on the part of the donor has yet to be determined. The effects of 991 often result in subjects becoming unhinged, especially if they receive multiple injections. They begin to possess conflicting viewpoints and ideas, and exhibit symptoms similar to those of a paranoid schizophrenic. After repeated donations, donors often begin to exhibit symptoms consistent with Alzheimer's Disease, sometimes resulting in the loss of a fundamental faculty of them, such as swallowing, breathing, or blinking.

'''SCP-992''' is an elderly Aboriginal man of Pitjantjatjara ethnicity. 992 claims to be between 57-71 years old, but he has appeared not to age in the 65 years he has been contained. He will attempt to engage in conversation with individuals who visit his containment chamber. The conversations typically consist of the subject describing its unsubstantiated prophetic abilities, and engaging the visitor in philosophical debates. When left alone, 992 attempts to converse with various forms of flora and fauna, and will occasionally claim to receive prophetic visions while conversing. These conversations will usually take place over the course of several hours, with 992 holding a one-sided conversation with the organism he is conversing with. If asked about the topic of the conversations, he will frequently allude to vague natural events which have not occurred, as well as claiming to have predicted various, widely-publicized natural disasters. When 992 is able to observe any weather pattern, the perception of humans viewing him will be changed, allowing subjects to view bizarre and nonsensical meteorological activities. The effect will persist for 10-30 minutes after the affected persons have ceased viewing 992.

'''SCP-994''' is a species of airborne creature bearing no resemblance to any known phylum. They generally appear circular, with a flat ventral surface and curved dorsal side. 994 will change in shape with age; juveniles will appear as blunted triangles, adults will be saucer-shaped, and elderly instances will be oblong. 994 have no distinctive features on the dorsal side, outside of a layer of short, highly reflective silver fur and the orifices of the respiratory tracts. They have no visible eyes, instead sensing their surroundings through a combination of echolocation and thermal sensitivity. The underside of the body houses a circular, jawless mouth with a rasping tongue, as well as a series of white-blue bioluminescent organs. The pattern of these lights is unique to the individual, and the actual purpose has yet to be determined, as they produce no heat for other instances to detect. 994 are capable of flight, though the exact method is unknown. They are capable of reaching incredible speeds, the highest recorded speed being in excess of Mach 2, and several individuals have been seen making ninety-degree turns in mid-flight. 994 are completely silent during flight, even during supersonic acceleration, outside of a soft humming exhibited by juveniles. The creatures’ behavior is highly social, with a complex hierarchy within the flock. Elder females serve as the ruling matriarchs, each one leading a smaller sub-division of a dozen or so individuals. While the flock as a whole will act as one unit, the sub-flocks will display a shifting network of rivalries and alliances between them. Communication between instances is carried out at an ultrasonic level. 994 will generally avoid humans in the wild, fleeing if one comes within a certain distance. The flock in Foundation containment has become accustomed to human contact, allowing staff members to make physical contact, and have also naturalized the containment hangars for use as a roosting area.

'''SCP-995''' is an organism with shared traits of both animals and fungi. 995's life cycle starts with it appearing as a spore, which stays dormant until it finds an area that has low light and sufficient moisture. 995 spores have more probability of activating under artificial structures such as household furniture, with leather, vinyl, and polyester seeming to be favored. The spore will then grow into a soft, organic mass which feeds off microorganisms in the air. It will continue to grow, sprouting appendages to enable movement. A toothed mouth will soon form, along with a simple digestive tract. In its mature stage, 995 feeds on larger organisms such as insects and rodents, as well as household pets and infants. The specimen will then start generating more instances of itself via the typical reproduction of spores. Infants have become prey, along with household pets. If a large population of 995 has spawned in a small area, they will migrate, having the capabilities of infesting a house by the hundreds in a few days.

'''SCP-997''' is a metallic device that superficially resembles a lamp without a bulb and a twisting wire structure in place of a shade, believed to function as an antenna. Imaging of the internal workings suggests sophisticated electronics of unknown purpose. A switch near the top controls whether or not the device is active. 997 is powered by a standard NEMA 5 power outlet, and so has been fitted with an adapter for testing chamber wall outlets. When connected to a power source and turned on, 997 emits a field that affects every human within about 250 meters of it, which seems to be at least partially psychic in nature. All persons affected by the field become unable to perceive, in any way, anything they would consider vermin. The effect extends to sufficiently accurate representations of vermin, and is based on subjective judgement, so one individual may perceive something that another may not. Testing results suggest that 997 only suppresses conscious awareness of vermin, inflicting symptoms akin to spatial neglect across all senses. Though people affected do not report noticing vermin, they do respond to their presence, though they cannot explain the basis for their reaction, often creating fanciful excuses for their reactions and refusing to acknowledge the resultant implausibility.

'''SCP-998''' is a MC-130E "Combat Talon" military aircraft with the call sign "'''Blackbird One-Niner'''", formerly assigned to the United States Air Force 8th Special Operations. The aircraft evidently disappeared without a trace during a covert operation in 1973, along with 5 crew members, 3 passengers, and a classified cargo. Blackbird One-Niner was originally believed to have crashed under adverse weather conditions, but a search for the wreckage was conducted and called off three months later with no results. Despite this, the Foundation has archived a series of transmissions from the aircraft, primarily filled with eerie sounds, mentions of a mysterious fog, and the crew and passengers screaming for help.
