**Item #:** SCP-8129
**Object Class:** Euclid
**Special Containment Procedures:**SCP-8129 is to be contained within a reinforced lockbox constructed of titanium alloy, measuring 0.5m x 0.5m x 0.5m. This lockbox must remain sealed at all times, with its interior lined with a layer of lead to mitigate any potential unidentified emissions. The lockbox is housed within a 2m x 2m x 2m standard containment cell located at Site-42.
**Observation Protocol:** No direct visual observation of SCP-8129 is permitted under any circumstances. Surveillance within the containment cell is conducted exclusively through live video feed, with the camera mounted to ensure SCP-8129 remains visible only from behind.
**Access Restrictions:** Access to SCP-8129 requires Level 3 clearance or higher, and written authorization from Site-42’s head researcher. Only personnel with a proven psychological stability rating of 85% or higher are permitted entry.
Photographic Equipment Ban: All photographic equipment, including cameras, smartphones, and devices capable of capturing still images, is strictly prohibited within a 50m radius of SCP-8129’s containment cell. Routine scans are conducted to ensure compliance.
In the event of a containment breach:
All personnel are to evacuate the area immediately.
Mobile Task Force Psi-7 ("Home Improvement") is to secure SCP-8129 using pre-approved containment protocols, ensuring no photographic devices are present during retrieval.
Any deceased personnel must be quarantined, and autopsies are to be conducted to confirm cause of death.
**Description:**SCP-8129 is a stuffed animal resembling a gray elephant, approximately 40 cm in height and weighing 7.2 kg. Despite its seemingly mundane appearance, SCP-8129 possesses two black marble-like eyes that lack any visible reflection, giving them an unnervingly void-like quality. Its fabric is heavily worn, with frayed stitching along the seams and slight discoloration consistent with prolonged exposure to handling.
The object emits no detectable sound or odor, and standard scans reveal no internal mechanisms or electronics. However, its weight significantly exceeds that of a typical stuffed animal of its size, suggesting the presence of unknown internal components or anomalous mass. Attempts to X-ray SCP-8129 have been inconclusive, with scans producing distorted and unusable imagery.
SCP-8129 remains in a seated position at all times, with its back perpetually oriented toward observers. Physical attempts to rotate SCP-8129 have invariably resulted in its position resetting, with observers reporting momentary lapses in memory when such attempts are made.
The SCP’s anomalous properties manifest exclusively when it is photographed. During the milliseconds required for a camera to capture an image, SCP-8129 is reported to turn its head over its shoulder. Direct eye contact between SCP-8129 and the individual taking the photograph triggers instantaneous cardiac arrest in the victim, with no prior symptoms or warning. Despite this, the resulting photograph always depicts SCP-8129 in its dormant state, facing away from the camera, with no visible deviation in posture or appearance.
**Attempted Destruction:** SCP-8129 has proven impervious to physical damage. Attempts to burn, tear, or otherwise destroy it have been unsuccessful, with the object appearing undisturbed after each attempt.
**Discovery:**SCP-8129 was first discovered in the master bedroom of an apartment belonging to Mr. and Mrs. ████████ located in ███████, Idaho, following a wellness check initiated by concerned neighbors. Upon entry, law enforcement officials found the couple deceased in the living room, with no signs of forced entry or struggle. Both bodies exhibited expressions of extreme terror, though autopsies revealed no apparent cause of death.
In the master bedroom, SCP-8129 was observed sitting on the floor, facing away from the doorway. It was described as an unremarkable stuffed elephant, with visible stitching along its back. When Agent ███████, a member of the initial containment team, attempted to photograph SCP-8129, they collapsed instantly. Medical personnel on-site pronounced them dead shortly after, citing sudden cardiac arrest. Analysis of the photograph revealed no abnormalities beyond the appearance of SCP-8129 sitting upright with its back to the camera.
**Origin:**Foundation investigators discovered that SCP-8129 contains the trapped soul of ███████████, the infant child of Mr. and Mrs. ████████. Forensic thaumaturgical analysis of the apartment uncovered residual traces of a failed ritual involving blood sigils and a binding circle. It is theorized that the ritual was an attempt to preserve the life of the child following an unspecified medical emergency.
Witness accounts from neighbors reported unsettling activity in the weeks leading up to the deaths, including faint crying sounds emanating from the apartment despite the absence of a visible infant and persistent shadows seen near the bedroom. Occasional faint sounds, such as soft crying or cooing, have since been reported by personnel within close proximity to SCP-8129, though these auditory phenomena are sporadic and difficult to record.
