Nice back story on it to bad it doesn't actually exist or I'd be tempted to kill it just to say I killed it.

You spelled sight as site.

creepy fucker...

Well done. Is there more?

That's some good paper mache.

I enjoy this.

awwww
He's cute.

Google says nothing, and the "item SCP-173" looks extremely tacky, even for a paper mache, or gypsum figure.

Kewl made up story, no really very nice

>>140122

In reference to creepy pictures with interesting text that's supposed to supplement a backstory of some sorts. I do like the fact that it's some sort of lab report thing. Makes it even more interesting.

Either way, we need more of this!

>>140042
the description is freaky >_>

Now do a daily log written by one of the personnel asigned to Site 19.

Saw this Doctor Who episode. It was a good one so I'll applaud too.

Someone's been watching Doctor Who...

Bad grammar is bad.

It's = contraction of "it is."

Its = possessive form of "it."

Errors like that always take me out of the scary story and put me into Grammar Nazi mode.

>>140149

4 itchy tasty

>line of site
GAME OVER
Please try again

OP's image is a travelling work of art, enjoy your fanfic of silly asian scare art

The story itself isn't very well written, though admittently, not much better than I could probably do. at any rate, it needs more fluidity, It reads like an official report written by a high-schooler, which, I'd bet you are.

Overall, it is a good backstory for the picture.
It just needs some further revision.

>>140174
then fix it up, mr editor.

Shame a better image wasnt used for the story.

I fucking hate this boring ass sculpture.

lol i hit that

Hey, add moar to the story walrus dude

Great concept... story would be much creepier with a better image though.

>>140042it does not move while being watched.

lol. Picture of SCP-173
<---

>>140932
More convincing than ops pic.

>>140174
Sleep deprived first drafts tend to suck a bit.
It's meant to sound like an official report, and I'll admit that english grammar isn't my strongest subject.
Thanks for all the positive responses.

>>141050
Do more. You've actually inspired me to make one of my worst dreams into a nice little spooky story like that... but first I need to find a recording of a particular Australian bird.

so its basicly a golem

>>141338

I concur with your summation.

In that case, I find the hebraic word written on it that brings it to life and erase it, thus "killing" it.

>>140150

Hay der guyz! U talkin bout me?

>>140042
So question: If site personnel need to destroy item SCP-173, and approached it with jackhammers to that end, would it be able to fight back if people were looking at it?

I'm just thiking ahead to certain contingencies if, you know, the wrong people find out about it.

>>141356
It's probably not very intelligent. It may be a defense mechanism for it to not move while others are looking at it to try and trick them into believing it's inanimate or dead. So, if it feels it's life is sufficiently threatened it may move and defend itself regardless of being looked at.

>>141359
That was my concern. There are other means at our disposal, but mundane equipment would attract the least notice when the budget is submitted in September.

The possibility of introducing Item #SCP-398 to the same containment area and letting the two eliminate each other remains as well.

Shoot it in the head. That always works.

Okay, try starting it this way, then continue on later in the form of summary reports at later dates.

USAF File: C203-92b
Date: Jun 7, 1952

Filed by: Capt. Henry Milan
----

Item found outside of Yuma, Arizona on March 24th.

During regular training exercises, Corporal Ben Flynn and his squadron came across an strange statue in an empty installation set to be used for future bombing run training. The statue is approximately seven feet tall and human in form. The arms and legs are disproportionate to the head and torso, resembling a fetus. Strange coloration was noted on the face of the statue and it was posed against on of the inner walls of the building. Upon further inspection, Corporal Flynn noted that the statue is composed of mostly cement and is possibly reinforced with steel rebar. It is likely man-made.

Further investigation of the surrounding area yielded no other signs of transportation for the statue other that misshapen foot prints. It is likely that the statue was placed there by locals looking to create a stir or possibly protest the war. Private Allen Benson took the supplied photograph to document the area in the event that an investigation to the security of the training area is to take place.

Private Benson reported that he heard the sound of heavy scraping within the building shortly after he left. This prompted a search of the other rooms in case any civilians may have still been in the building but were undetected. The area was given an "all clear" by the squad commander and the statue was left in the building. It was deemed necessary that on June 9th, a final morning inspection of the building will be conducted before it is demolished to make certain that no civilians have returned to the area and to ensure no lives are lost.

>>141363
I don't know that our regular 5.56mm FMJ could subdue it fast enough. I've sent away to Aberdeen for an XM-25 and some HE rounds, that should do the trick.

>>141367
>an strange statue

Also, names being added are awkward. But first names would never appear at all except maybe for initials.

>>141370

Blast me and my lack of try!

But if it helps OP clean out his thought box and liven up the story to something of a readable item, then perhaps it was worth it.

>>141370
The names might be censored out of the final. Don't want people tracking those folks down and finding out what they know.

>>141377

Valid point. Ideally the text would be done in a typewriter font and printed out. Then you could black out the names and any other details that should be censored (like location and such) with a magic marker, artificially age it with some lemon juice and a light bulb, then scan it back and show it as an uploaded file you got thanks to the Freedom of Information Act. Add a personal back story as to why you were looking it up and create your own website to make hapless people expel bricks rapidly from their rectum.

You should do this for other pictures :D The story is a tiny bit flawed, but still fantastic. Don't let people tell you it's crap; the lab-report format is awesome for this purpose.

It would be horribly creepy to be in with it after reading the lab report; imagine even having it a football field's length away from you but without anyone else to help watch it. Every time you blink it would seem to instantly teleport five yards toward you, frozen statue-still again by the time your blink is over. If you turned your head to look around for an escape route, it would be too late.

>>141399

thats why you wink twice

>>140150
>>140152

We're of the same (hive)mind.

>>141399
Stop watching britfag TV.

>>141416
If you're referring to Dr. Who I'm afraid I haven't seen this episode; what episode is it, incidentally?

>>141418
This entire thread is a rip-off of the episode 'Blink'. It was on about two weeks ago. I don't really care, but that other person obviously did.

Hey, ideas have to start somewhere, and I'm guessing Dr. Who wasn't the first time this theme had come up.

man thats freaky

Figured I'd bump this 'cause it isn't getting much attention today..

It would be a better hoax if you spelt Krylon correctly, its not crylon paint, its Krylon.

The idea also turned up in The Shining, the Topiary Animals move about when you are not looking at them. Until later in the book when they get stronger and can move in plain site, but that wasn't as scary IMO.

>>141864
It's a good technique in horror movies to show the monster less, rather than more. Like the shark in jaws, a lot of why it's so scary is that it's always lurking right there, and you almost never see it.

First time I ever shat bricks during a Doctor Who episode, I tell you.

>>141886

I just watched that one today. I didn't blink the entire time. True story.

>>141909
What episode is that

>>141913
Blink

ITT brainstorming for a long, brick shitting story

SCP-173 needs a nickname that the people who work on it call it

/x/, I say we work on making this a huge story with lots of shit to make the rest of the internet shit brix

>>141363
It's made of concrete you can't shoot it in the head

>>141930
Blinky?

Papier mache is mache'd and papiery.

>>141976
Yup, it can't chase you in the rain, lol.

>>141981
OH GOD A PUDDLE OF MONSTER

bump

I thought it was pretty fucking cool actually. It was just written to casually to be a lab report.

Hastily edited, not checked for errors, but you get the idea.

Item#: SCP-173
Special Containment Procedures: Item SPC-173 is to be kept in a locked container at all times. When personnel must enter SCP-173's container, no fewer than 3 may enter at any time and the door is to be relocked behind them. At all times, two persons must maintain direct eye contact with SCP-173 until all personnel have vacated and relocked the container.
Description: Moved to Site19 1993. Origin is as of yet unknown. It is constructed from concrete and rebar with traces of Crylon brand spraypaint. SCP-173 is animate extremely hostile. The object cannot move while within a direct line of sight. Line of sight must not be broken at any time with SCP-173. Personel assigned to enter container are instructed to alert one another before blinking. Object is reported to attack by snapping the neck at the base of the skull, or by strangulation. In the event of an attack, personal are to observe Class 4 hazardous object containment procedures.

Personel report sounds of scraping stone originating from within the container when no one is present inside. This is considered normal, and any change in this behavior should be reported to the acting HMCL supervisor on duty.

The reddish brown substance on the floor is a combination of feces and blood. Origin of these materials is unknown. The enclosure must be cleaned on a bi-weekly basis.

moar like this?

>>142247
Nice, I like it.

Is is SPC or SCP? Gotta keep it the same.

>>142552
It should be SCP for Special Containment Procedure.

If you want to make it sound like a quasi-military black operation, it would have an organization name taken from the beginning of each word, something like SPECCONPROD. If it were an item of equipment the word order would go from the most general description to the most specific, which generally means backwards: (Procedure, Containment, Special, or PSC for short)

http://www.site19.com/ Is an unregistered domain, we need to make this into a huge ass site like>>141934suggests. First we refine SCP-173, next up is SCP-398 since>>141362mentioned it.

WHO'S WITH ME?

>>142247
Hmm.. the last part about the floor is weak. If you want it to be creepy you've gotta add more. Not too much, just some more unexplained details.

>>142580
Second.

>>142583
Still need to keep the military report feel though, I would say theres room for improvement(always is), but it's good as it is.

DOESN"T ANYONE ELSE SEE A HORRIBLY FUGLY PARROT/HUMAN HYBRID GONE WRONG HUMPING A WALL?

>>142580
I don't know about my scary story writing ability, but I've been told I'm a fine editor... I'd be happy to help with making the stories more readable etc, researching new material and other general things.
It sounds like a great idea.

>>142580
Second.

does it move while being videotaped?

>>142606
I would wonder the same thing and if not then just setup a camera in the top corners of the room, that or just knock the damned thing over, doesn't seem to have much in the way of self-righting capability.

>>142580Here, although I don't know how to get the domain(nor Do I have the money), I made an Invisionfree forum under the name, just in case this topic goes bye bye, we'll need it especially if we want to make some huge conspiracy site. It's not done now, I'll give it a skin and banner and such later, but for now I'll just put it out there, but we should still keep this topic alive.

fantastic. Will register.
