Item #: SCP-1337
Object Class: Safe Decommissioned Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: The section of road designated 1337-Alpha is to be monitored
at all times.
During active time periods a sweep is to be performed every hour, by a lone security agent
in a non-Foundation standard car, at all other times remote monitoring is allowed.
When contact is made with SCP-1337, said agent is to stop his vehicle, and offer it a ride.
Agent is to adhere exclusively to the provided script, and not attempt to engage SCP-1337
in any further conversation.
After arrival at site 1337-Beta, agent is to wait in the car 15 minutes after departure
of SCP-1337 and then to retrieve item 1337-Gamma, and return it to the E-class Agents at Site
1337-Delta.
After the results of incident 1337-L██████, Dr. L██████ is to be the sole
operative assigned to active phase monitoring duty.
Given that three years have passed since any occurrence of SCP-1337, this SCP is now considered
decommissioned.
After the events of Incident 1337-L██████-2, SCP-1337 has been reinstated, and upgraded
to Euclid class.
During the 19th of each month, the 'active' phase of SCP-1337, the system of roads known
collectively as 1337-Alpha are to be constantly patrolled for signs of SCP-1337.
In the event said SCP is spotted, a D-class is to be inserted into a remotely controlled
vehicle, and guided to the spot of its appearance.
Upon acquiring SCP-1337, the vehicle is to be driven to Site 1337-Delta, and the remains
of the D-class disposed of.
If SCP-1337 is not spotted, this anomaly must be immediately reported.
Description: SCP-1337 is a Level 2 Humanoid Apparition, location bound, non-violent, corporeal
Level 5 Humanoid Apparition, free roaming, corporeal, actively aggressive.
It appears to be the wraith of one Mary Talish, who was abducted, ritually tortured, and executed
on May 19th, 1952, in Muncie, Indiana.
Starting 19 months after her death, SCP-1337 began to appear on the 19th of every month,
walking down Mayflower Road (1337-Alpha), attempting to flag down any passing vehicle.
It would tell anyone who picked it up that it had gotten lost, and was in need of a ride
back to its home (1337-Delta).
SCP-1337 would give directions in such a way as to ensure passing the graveyard where Mary
Talish was buried (1337-Beta), and then encourage the driver to stop at the cemetery.
Once out of the vehicle, SCP-1337 would vanish, leaving the driver to find her sweater (1337-Gamma).
Anyone touching 1337-Gamma would then feel an urge to return the item to Site 1337-Delta,
and Mary Talish's parents.
Despite many attempts to secure 1337-Gamma, it would invariably vanish from containment
at or around sunset on the 19th.
SCP-1337 manifests as a female, blonde haired, blue eyed, 150 cm (5 feet) tall, approximately
59 kg (130 pounds).
It is dressed conservatively, a mid calf length red skirt, long sleeved button up shirt, and
red sweater(1337-Gamma).
It appears well groomed, in both body and clothing.
See Incident 1337-L██████-2 for current physical description.
When the Foundation moved in, it was found most beneficial to recruit the elder Talishs
as E-class Agents of the Foundation, in order to prevent them from speaking out.
The Agents were told the Foundation was working on a way to set their daughter to rest.
Special agents were employed to pick up and transport SCP-1337, as no means of permanently
repositioning it were found.
Dr. L██████ was placed in command of Foundation resources governing SCP-1337.
Incident 1337-L██████: On 6/18/73, Dr. L██████, acting without permission,
had the E-class Agents executed, and Site 1337-Delta destroyed.
His reasoning was that 'If she has no one to return to, she'll stop coming back.'
Dr. L██████ was demoted to Junior Staff for his actions, but not reassigned,
under the belief that if SCP-1337 were to form a new attachment, it would most likely
be to him.
An examination of Dr. L██████s journals revealed that he believed decommissioning
SCP-1337 would lead to a promotion, and 'recognition of his brilliance.'
On 6/19/76, SCP-1337 was considered Decommissioned.
Incident 1337-L██████-2: On 6/19/83, Dr. L██████ returned to Site 1337-Alpha,
to ensure there were no remnants of SCP-1337.
His last transmission consisted only of the words 'Wait, who the hell are yo-' When security
arrived on the scene, Dr. L██████ was found deceased, his body mutilated in
the same manner as Mary Talish's had been when she was found.
Since that time, on the 19th of every month, SCP-1337 has returned, with a different method
of operations.
Recordings have shown that its physical appearance has changed.
SCP-1337 still manifests with the same basic physical appearance, but now shows the wounds
of its death.
The eyes appear to have been gouged from their sockets, and its clothing is ripped and stained
mid-chest, to reveal the empty cavity where its heart was removed.
SCP-1337's range of movement has extended to all of the back roads of Muncie.
If a vehicle stops for SCP-1337, it vanishes from view, to reappear on another road.
Should a vehicle pass SCP-1337 by, it will then appear inside the vehicle, where it will
re-enact the methods of its murder upon the driver of the vehicle.
SCP-1337 will only appear for vehicles containing one person.
