Special Containment Procedures: SCP-8334 is to be contained within a secure forested area spanning 7 km² at Site-██, surrounded by an electrified perimeter fence and monitored by thermal imaging. Personnel entering the zone must travel in groups and be equipped with trackers, tranquilizers, and Class-A amnestics. Under no circumstances should personnel wear red clothing or enter the containment zone between dusk and dawn.
During a containment breach, Mobile Task Force Lambda-12 ("Forest Rangers") is to be dispatched immediately, armed with high-powered spotlights and incendiary rounds, as SCP-8334 exhibits an aversion to intense light.
Description: SCP-8334, referred to as "The Big Bad Wolf," is a sapient, predatory entity resembling a large, lupine creature with exaggeratedly long limbs and glowing white eyes. SCP-8334 is extremely agile, capable of moving silently through wooded terrain, and is believed to be nocturnally active, emerging primarily during twilight hours.
In its dormant state, SCP-8334 appears as a large, ominous shadow, barely visible through dense foliage, giving the impression of a watching, predatory presence. However, upon sighting an individual, SCP-8334 enters a hunting phase, characterized by pursuit and psychological manipulation. Its behaviors seem patterned after folklore, especially the role of the “wolf” from "Little Red Riding Hood."
Anomalous Properties: SCP-8334 has a memetic effect that induces paranoia and dread, especially among those who linger in the containment zone. When in close proximity, SCP-8334 influences its target with auditory hallucinations, including rustling, snapping twigs, and deep, guttural noises that increase in intensity the longer the target remains in the area. SCP-8334 appears capable of mimicking human speech in a low, whispering tone, which it uses to taunt or lure its targets.
Subjects report feeling watched and stalked, sometimes catching brief glimpses of SCP-8334’s eyes glowing from the shadows. As soon as the entity’s eyes are locked on an individual, the subject enters a locking-like state, compelled to wander deeper into the forest and away from companions, a behavior designated as "Hollowing." Once alone, the subject loses all sense of direction and orientation, often resulting in them wandering until exhaustion or collapse.
Incident #8334-B:
Date: ██/██/20██
Summary: Researcher ████, assigned to monitor SCP-8334’s movement patterns, reported hearing faint whispers and seeing a "dark shape with white eyes." Despite efforts to avoid SCP-8334, the researcher experienced "the wolf speaking," describing it as an overwhelming, unnatural fear. Researcher ████ was later found unharmed but deeply traumatized, with a strong aversion to forests and solitary environments.
Behavioral Observations: SCP-8334 has shown no interest in consuming its targets but seems motivated by the act of stalking and psychologically tormenting them. Researchers speculate that SCP-8334's behavior may be a manifestation of an ancient predatory instinct amplified by an anomalous presence, acting out a never-ending “hunt.”
Closing Notes: Personnel encountering SCP-8334 are advised to avoid eye contact, travel in pairs, and exit the containment area immediately if auditory or visual hallucinations begin. Research is ongoing to determine whether SCP-8334 has a deeper connection to folklore-based anomalies, with possible links to other fairy tale entities.
