Item #: SCP-8049
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-8049 is currently uncontainable, residing within a Class-3 Exclusion Zone at Site-99. The affected area, approximately 500 km², has been designated a restricted zone under the guise of a hazardous biological contamination site. Any civilians attempting to enter the zone are to be intercepted, detained, and administered amnestics. Drone surveillance is maintained 24/7 to track changes in SCP-8049's behavior.
Personnel assigned to SCP-8049 must undergo psychological screenings before and after each shift. Any signs of anomalous influence must be reported immediately. Direct observation of SCP-8049 is strictly forbidden; all monitoring is to be conducted via automated systems.
Under no circumstances are mirrors, reflective surfaces, or any device capable of creating reflections to be introduced into SCP-8049's containment zone. In the event of an unauthorized reflective object entering SCP-8049’s vicinity, Protocol Black-Veil must be enacted, which involves the immediate incineration of the object, followed by full quarantine of the exposure site.
Description:
SCP-8049, colloquially known as "The Hollow Reflection," manifests as a massive, translucent humanoid entity, approximately 30 meters in height. The entity appears only within reflective surfaces, though it does not physically exist within our dimension. Instead, SCP-8049 appears to reside in a parallel plane, visible only when one is exposed to reflections within its containment zone. Its form is ever-shifting, comprised of countless dark, shadowy figures intertwined within one another, their faces in constant agony as if screaming in eternal torment.
When observed indirectly (via cameras or peripheral vision), SCP-8049 exerts an overwhelming psychological influence. Subjects viewing SCP-8049 report hearing distorted whispers in a language that has not been identified. The longer one is exposed, the more intense these hallucinations become, eventually driving the subject to violent paranoia, self-harm, or even suicide.
SCP-8049’s primary anomalous effect occurs when a living human directly views their own reflection in proximity to SCP-8049. Upon seeing their reflection, the subject's mirrored image will instantaneously distort, twisting into a grotesque, emaciated version of themselves, its skin flayed and eyes hollow. The reflection will then begin to "detach" from the mirrored surface, assuming independent control of the subject’s body.
These entities, classified as SCP-8049-1, retain the memories and skills of the original subject but show no signs of human empathy or rational behavior. SCP-8049-1 entities are violent, cunning, and capable of interacting with the real world. They typically seek out and kill those closest to their original form, after which they vanish, leaving behind only a hollow, skin-like shell.
Addendum 8049-1: Incident Report 8049-A
On ██/██/2023, a containment breach occurred following a mishandled attempt to remove a reflective window from a nearby outpost within the Exclusion Zone. During the transfer, the window briefly caught a reflection of a maintenance worker’s face. Within 47 seconds, the worker began screaming and clawing at their skin, claiming their reflection was "taking over."
Security personnel arrived at the scene just in time to witness the worker’s body collapse into a pile of skin, as an SCP-8049-1 entity escaped into the wilderness. The entity was tracked for several hours, during which it was seen murdering two Site-99 personnel before it disappeared into an abandoned building. All personnel involved in the containment breach were administered Class-B amnestics, and the site was sealed.
Addendum 8049-2: Interview Log
Interview conducted between Dr. Henson and Subject D-8891, who had been exposed to SCP-8049 during a recent test.
Dr. Henson: "Please describe what you saw when you looked in the mirror."
D-8891: [Pauses for several seconds] "It wasn’t me. I mean, it looked like me at first, but… its eyes were gone. Just empty holes. And its mouth… it was smiling, but like it knew something I didn’t. I could feel it watching me, even after I looked away."
Dr. Henson: "And after that?"
D-8891: "It reached out. The hand… my hand, but not my hand. It came through the glass. It was trying to pull me in. I… I heard the voices. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe. All begging me to come closer."
Dr. Henson: "Did you respond to these voices?"
D-8891: "I couldn’t help it. They were so loud. It’s like they were inside my skull. I don’t even remember walking toward the mirror. It felt like something else was controlling me."
At this point in the interview, D-8891 begins scratching at his face and is sedated for further testing.
Researcher's Note:
The nature of SCP-8049 continues to elude all rational scientific analysis. Attempts to communicate with the entity have been met only with cryptic visual displays through reflective surfaces—often distorted human forms, locked in expressions of unbearable agony.
Theories suggest SCP-8049 might be a manifestation of collective human guilt or some form of extra-dimensional predator that feeds on fear and identity. Regardless, its influence continues to spread. Further containment is becoming increasingly difficult, and personnel are advised to avoid all reflective surfaces within a 1 km radius of the Exclusion Zone.
