Description lamp.jpg
SCP-5907.
SCP-5907 is a 19th-Century oil lamp comprised of a small oil chamber and a wick consisting
of hemp and cotton.
Igniting the wick causes SCP-5907 to emit trace amounts of fluctuating Akiva radiation.
After approximately 30 seconds, SCP-5907 starts releasing smoke; with inhalation causing transfiguration
of human tissue into synthetic cotton-like material and calcium-heavy bio-matter such
as bones into aluminum.
There is no known method of terminating the transmutation.
Discovery On 2020/02/23, the Foundation received a police
file containing information on severely mutated human corpses, including several photographs.
Foundation Agents were deployed to the residence where the corpses were located, which was
still under police investigation.
SCP-5907 was discovered due to its abnormal levels of Akiva radiation, detected by investigators'
GADs.
General Analysis Devices
It was located in the room of William Corbin, the son of the residence's owner.
The bodies of William, Veronica, and Fresco Corbin were all located in the room.
A video file was also recovered from William's personal computer.
[BEGIN LOG]
William: Okay, it's February 19th and I picked up this really cool lamp from a pawn shop
down on Wilson Ave.
[William holds up SCP-5907.]
William: Now, the guy there said this thing is a real deal genie lamp.
[William turns SCP-5907 to reveal its underside.]
William: See here, it says "Levi Strauss 1840", according to the guy at the shop, Levi Strauss
himself used this to become successful.
I believe in the supernatural but this seemed almost too good to be true, so I couldn't
pass it up.
[William sets SCP-5907 down on a small table in front of the camera.]
William: So all I've gotta do is light the lamp…
[He uncovers the wick and lights it.]
Rub it three times…
And I don't know, I guess just wait for the genie.
[William laughs.]
[The lamp begins producing smoke from its spout.]
William: Holy shit, I can't belie–
[William begins coughing as a tendril of smoke forces its way down his throat.]
William: [Gasping.]
help, he–
[The smoke detector in William's room begins beeping as William collapses to the ground,
clutching his chest.]
[The skin on William's fingers, nose, and neck begins to peel, revealing a blue fabric
underneath.
William coughs out blood mixed with a fibrous white substance.]
[The door to the room opens.]
Mrs. Corbin: Oh my god, Fresco get in here!
[William moves to his side and opens his mouth to speak.
Clumps of bloody cotton fibers fall from his open mouth.
Two tendrils of smoke are seen drifting off-screen.]
Mrs. Corbin: Help!
[Coughing.]
Mr. Corbin: What the fuck is go– [Coughing.]
[Two thuds can be heard as the coughing turns to gasps for air.
Dozens of zipper elements are pushed out from the corner of William's eyes.]
Also known as zipper teeth.
[After 30 minutes, William's entire epidermis has peeled away and has been replaced with
denim fabric.]
[One hour after the transfiguration was complete, SCP-5907 self-extinguishes.]
[END LOG]
Cover story TT31 (Carbon Monoxide Leak) was enacted to explain the deaths of the Corbin
family; all three corpses as well as SCP-5907 were relocated to Site-51.
All mentions of the corpse's mutation were removed from police records and all emergency
responders were amnestisized to remove memories of the incident.
The Investigation Team attempted to locate the pawnshop described in the video, but public
records indicate no such store has ever existed
in
the area.
