Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-8939 is to be kept in a standard containment chamber furnished with low-light UV lamps to replicate its native lighting. No direct light above 5 lumens is to be permitted in the chamber to avoid triggering SCP-8939’s anomalous properties. Personnel are prohibited from bringing in any high-luminosity devices. All observations must be conducted via infrared cameras.
Description:
SCP-8939 is an ancient, ornate lantern of unknown origin, roughly 12 inches tall, with a carved frame depicting moths circling a small, stylized sun. The frame is made of an alloy that resists all known forms of analysis. The lantern emits a soft, pulsating blue glow that fluctuates in brightness depending on the level of curiosity and attention directed toward it.
Anomalous Properties:
SCP-8939’s primary anomalous effect activates when a subject views it with intent fascination. Upon gazing at the lantern, viewers begin to perceive strange shadows flickering along the walls, taking the shape of giant moths with translucent, smoke-like wings. These shadows grow increasingly defined the longer the observer watches, eventually taking on the semblance of a dark void. Anyone who continues to stare into SCP-8939’s glow for more than five minutes will report feeling an overwhelming compulsion to “enter the light.”
Subjects who succumb to this compulsion vanish, leaving behind faint scorch marks resembling moth wings where they last stood. Attempts to locate missing subjects have proven fruitless, but faint traces of their voices can sometimes be heard from the lantern, as if calling from a great distance.
Discovery:
SCP-8939 was discovered in the attic of an abandoned lighthouse in Maine, USA, after reports of “ghost lights” seen near the coastline. Local rumors told of people disappearing after “following the lights.” The lantern was seized after Foundation operatives found that three agents vanished during initial observations.
Research indicates SCP-8939 might serve as a portal or lure, designed to attract sentient beings to an unknown destination, possibly connected to a realm inhabited by entities resembling the shadow-moths. The lantern’s origin and purpose remain speculative, but Foundation researchers suspect it may have connections to other reality-bending artifacts.

Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-8939 is contained in a standard low-light chamber equipped with UV-spectrum lamps set to no more than 5 lumens. Higher light levels are strictly prohibited to prevent activating its anomalous effects. All observations of SCP-8939 must be conducted through infrared-capable devices to ensure no personnel directly observe it for prolonged periods. Staff members experiencing prolonged urges to view SCP-8939 are to be removed from the vicinity and placed under psychological observation.
Description:
SCP-8939 is an ornate lantern, about 13 inches in height, crafted from an unidentified dark alloy with engravings resembling moths encircling a half-obscured sun. SCP-8939 emits a faint, undulating blue glow, fluctuating with the viewer’s proximity and apparent curiosity. Physical analysis reveals that the lantern’s frame is resistant to all attempts at metal composition testing and material breakdown, and its light source remains inexplicably active despite the absence of any apparent fuel.
Anomalous Properties:
When SCP-8939 is viewed with focused intent, it begins to project shadow-like forms onto surrounding walls. These shadows, initially indistinct, gradually coalesce into the shapes of giant moths with wings that resemble ephemeral smoke. Subjects who observe these shadow-moths for extended periods report a sense of “looming presence” and an urge to draw closer to SCP-8939. This compulsion grows stronger the longer the viewer observes, leading some to report a perception of faint, distant voices echoing from within the lantern, sounding as though they are “calling out from a void.”
After five minutes of direct, uninterrupted observation, individuals experience an overwhelming desire to “join” the shadows. Subjects who approach SCP-8939 while under this compulsion eventually disappear, leaving behind scorched residue on the floor in the shape of moth wings. Attempts to track or retrieve missing subjects have failed; however, subsequent viewers occasionally report hearing distorted phrases that resemble the voices of previous observers, whispering phrases like “it’s beautiful here” and “the light devours.”
Discovery:
SCP-8939 was retrieved from the attic of an abandoned lighthouse on the coast of Maine, USA. The lighthouse had been abandoned for decades, with rumors circulating about “ghost lights” that lured passersby toward the rocks. Three Foundation agents disappeared during initial observations; the faint remains of their voices were later noted by subsequent test subjects. Locals claimed that anyone “caught in the light” was “taken away to the place of shadows,” further deepening SCP-8939’s potential connection to an unknown realm.
Testing Logs and Theories:
Test Log 8939-B: In controlled testing, D-Class personnel exposed to SCP-8939 for various durations reported visual and auditory phenomena increasing with exposure time. Subjects consistently described moth-like shadows forming a “tunnel” or “path” stretching into darkness. Personnel reported that upon reaching the tunnel’s “end,” the faint outlines of colossal, dark-winged creatures awaited them.
Addendum 8939.1: Following Incident 8939-D, in which a junior researcher reportedly saw the shadow-moths out of the corner of their eye during a routine observation, containment procedures have been amended. The incident suggests that the shadow entities may persistently “observe” those who engage with SCP-8939, even after leaving the containment area.
Research Notes:
SCP-8939 is hypothesized to serve as a portal or lure linked to a shadow-like dimension. Dr. Lang suggests it may be designed to tempt sentient beings into a threshold where corporeal existence is no longer viable. It remains unclear if the shadow-moth entities are sentient or if they represent an aspect of SCP-8939’s own consciousness. Further study is required to determine if the lantern’s lure is self-directed or if it serves a larger, malevolent purpose.
Current Status:
The SCP Foundation continues to research SCP-8939 with caution, exploring potential connections to other known entities or dimensions. Testing protocols have been refined to prevent further losses, with emphasis on understanding SCP-8939’s “sentience” and the role of the shadow-moth entities in its anomaly.

Initial post:
A young researcher with neatly tied-back hair enters Site-19’s containment sector, clipboard in hand. The air is quiet, but the dim glow of overhead lights gives a chill to the gray walls. She approaches the containment locker and stops, eyeing the secured box that holds SCP-8929—“The Phantom Helmet.” The item rests, untouched, in an opaque, locked container. She double-checks her clearance pass, confirming Level 2 access.
A guard at the door nods as she approaches, his stance firm but his gaze curious. They exchange glances as she punches in the security code. “Testing only, with approval,” she reminds herself, her voice barely a whisper. She lifts the container and prepares to bring it to a soundproof chamber, where at least two guards will stand vigilant, weapons ready, in case SCP-8929’s effects spill beyond its wearer.
“Ready?” asks the guard, noticing her hesitation. She nods, and they step forward.
In the quiet chamber, the researcher carefully opens the container, revealing a worn American football helmet bearing the iconic red and gold of the San Francisco 49ers. Though aged, it exudes an eerie energy, an intangible yet intense pull. She hesitates before taking notes, eyes scanning its surface for any signs of manufacturing information—but there is none. It sits as though it’s existed outside of time, untethered to any record.
Setting her clipboard down, she dons the helmet. A rush of sensations fills her mind—cheering crowds, the smell of turf and sweat, the blinding lights of a stadium under a night sky. She’s no longer in the silent room; she’s there, on the field, feeling the weight of expectation, the roaring chants, her own heartbeat pounding as though she’s moments away from the game’s winning play.
At first, the voices around her seem distant, echoes from the past. But as the minutes pass, the crowd intensifies. Teammates and coaches appear by her side, the space transforming around her. Those who enter the room now—technicians, colleagues, guards—all shift in her vision. They’re her team, or worse, opponents. In her mind, the game has begun.
Her sense of self blurs as the “game” takes over. Adrenaline courses through her veins, amplifying her strength and speed, pushing her to move, tackle, play. The “players” around her try to restrain her, but SCP-8929’s pull is too strong. Her movements grow violent, unpredictable, as if she’s lost in the endless loop of a crucial play.
When she’s finally freed from the helmet, her gaze remains unfocused. She stumbles, feeling the phantom echoes of the crowd and the grass beneath her. The test chamber fades back to the gray walls, but her mind remains on that field, a place she can’t quite leave behind.

Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-8929 is to be stored in a secure, soundproof containment locker at Site-19. Any personnel wishing to interact with SCP-8929 must obtain Level 2 clearance and receive approval for testing. During tests, SCP-8929 is to be moved to a soundproof chamber, where at least two armed guards are stationed to monitor the experiment from outside. Under no circumstances should SCP-8929 be worn without explicit authorization and proper security precautions.
Description:
SCP-8929 is a vintage American football helmet in the colors red and gold, resembling the design associated with the San Francisco 49ers, though lacking any identifiable manufacturing marks or team logos. While the helmet appears aged, it remains in excellent condition and shows no signs of decay beyond typical wear. When SCP-8929 is not in use, it exhibits no anomalous properties.
Anomalous Properties:
When SCP-8929 is worn, the wearer immediately experiences sensory immersion into an intense, realistic memory of an American football game. Sensations include hearing the sounds of a stadium crowd, the smell of turf, and visual hallucinations of stadium lighting and surroundings. This effect becomes more intense over time, with additional auditory and visual stimuli perceived as though the wearer is actively participating in the game.
After approximately one minute of wearing SCP-8929, the wearer begins to perceive others in the room as fellow players or opponents. The transformation in perception causes the wearer to engage in aggressive behaviors associated with playing football, including attempting tackles or evading capture. These behaviors persist until SCP-8929 is removed.
Psychological Effects:
Wearers report significant disorientation after removal of SCP-8929, with lingering sensations of crowd noise and tactile memories of a football field lasting several hours. Long-term exposure has resulted in partial dissociation, with affected individuals exhibiting difficulty differentiating between reality and the immersive hallucination. Psychological counseling is recommended for all personnel after direct exposure to SCP-8929.
Discovery:
SCP-8929 was recovered from an abandoned storage unit in [REDACTED], where it was found alongside various sports memorabilia. The helmet’s anomalous properties were first observed by a local investigator, who reportedly attacked bystanders, perceiving them as “opposing players.” Foundation agents recovered SCP-8929, administering Class-A amnestics to all witnesses.
Testing Logs:
Test Log 8929-A:
Subject: D-2457
Procedure: Subject instructed to wear SCP-8929 for a five-minute observation period.
Results: Subject reported sensory immersion in a football stadium, stating, “I could hear the crowd…smell the grass.” After 90 seconds, subject began running in place and attempting tackles, referring to the testing personnel as “teammates” and “opponents.” Subject exhibited heightened aggression until SCP-8929 was removed. Post-test, subject displayed mild disorientation, with residual auditory hallucinations reported for 45 minutes.
Test Log 8929-B:
Subject: Researcher ████
Procedure: Extended 10-minute exposure to SCP-8929 in a controlled environment.
Results: Subject displayed similar immersion effects. After three minutes, they began to perceive themselves as an active player in a game scenario, attempting to tackle nearby personnel. Removal of SCP-8929 required assistance. Subject reported lingering sensations of “crowd noise” and “stadium lights” for approximately two hours, with residual disorientation persisting for the rest of the day.
Addendum 8929-1:
Due to SCP-8929’s potential to incite violent behavior and temporary dissociation, interaction with the helmet is to be strictly limited to approved testing scenarios only. Continued research is ongoing to determine if the helmet’s effects indicate a deeper, cognitively invasive anomaly or an embedded memory transference.
