SCP-036-VN

Item #: SCP-036-VN

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-036-VN is to be kept in a standard soundproof locker at Site-12-VN. Testing regarding SCP-036-VN must be authorized by the Department of Psychology, with test supervisors required to possess high Cognitive Resistance Value (CRV), and conducted inside a soundproof chamber to avoid unforeseen incidents.

All subjects under SCP-036-VN's influence (henceforth designated as SCP-036-VN-A) must be detained immediately. SCP-036-VN-A need to have their intelligence assessed on a weekly basis.

Description: SCP-036-VN is the designation for a spring-wound music box made of oak wood, measuring 40x30x15cm. Inside, the structure of the music box shares similarities to the common spring-wound music boxes from the late 18th century1. Upon inspecting the wooden outer layer, the Foundation confirmed that the music box was crafted in around the late 18th century. Additionally, the music box has no label indicating its manufacturer nor the place of production. Attempts to search for the anomaly's origin have yet to yield any results.

SCP-036-VN is activated by turning the shaft connected with the spring inside the music box. The music length played by SCP-036-VN is dependent on the stretch level of its spring, with regular duration reportedly lasting 21 seconds. Additionally, all of SCP-036-VN recordings do not display any anomalous effects. Individuals directly listening to a song played by SCP-036-VN will show signs of reduction in their abilities to reason, communicate and control their bodies to that of a 4-to-6-year-old child (henceforth designated as SCP-036-VN-A).

Below is a record of SCP-036-VN music:

Addendum 036-1: Incident 036-A

Incident 036-A occurred on the morning of July 8th 2022 in the office of Dr. Ann, after Manager Trâm realized the former's unusual behaviour during work hours. Below is the extracted footage from the security camera inside Dr. Ann's office:

9:09 A.M.

<Manager Trâm opened the door and stepped inside>

Manager Trâm: <Hummed> ~Good morning sunshine…ya wanna work on a report with me~

<Dr. Ann was sitting on the ground, her face had multiple scribbled lines from a marker pen>

Manager Trâm: The hell is this? I know you like messing around and all, but we're still in office hours.

Dr. Ann: Who… are you?

Manager Trâm: Uhm… you seemed as if you're three years old.

Dr. Ann: Auntie, do you have candy?

Manager Trâm: You are not kidding, right?

<Manager Trâm bended down to look at Dr. Ann, she backed down from the latter>

Manager Trâm: Did you get enough sleep last night, you aren't like this normally.

Dr. Ann: Auntie, do you want to play tag, winner gets candies?

Manager Trâm: Huh?

<Dr. Ann jumped on her feet, shoved Manager Trâm to her side, and ran out into the hallway>

Dr. Ann: <Echoed from the hallway>… bet you can't catch me…

Manager Trâm: What the fuck.

Following this recording, Dr. Ann was detained by Site-12-VN security team and transferred to the medical division. She was given sedatives for resisting care and attempting to escape. Dr. Ann was later contained in her own bed cell at Site-12-VN.

Through the inspection of Dr. Ann's office at Site-12-VN, the Foundation discovered a music box made of oak wood with unknown origin. The box was then sealed for further investigation and research.

Addendum 036-2: Interview

An interview was conducted as Dr. Ann awoke and had calmed down. Dr. Ann was brought to an interview room under the escort of Site security.

<Dr. Ann's bed cell light bulb was flickering continuously. Dr. Ann pressed her eyes close to the light switch on the wall. There was a clicking sound from the switch>

Dr. Ann: Hmmm… How can this stand?

<Manager Trâm entered>

Manager Trâm: Is there a short circuit in this room or something? Why do the lights keep flickering? ANN! Where are you?

<Dr. Ann startled because of Manager Trâm's shouting, she pulled her eyes away from the switch and turned her head towards Manager Trâm>

Dr. Ann: You're looking for me, auntie?

Manager Trâm: What on earth are you doing!?

Dr. Ann: I'm just trying to keep the switch in balance…

Manager Trâm: Have you run out of things to mess around?

<Dr. Ann's eyes filled with tears>

Dr. Ann: Y-Yes…

<Manager Trâm looked around the cell>

<Manager Trâm continued to look at the screen>

Manager Trâm: I'm working, you're lucky to even be here, you are supposed to stay in that cell 24/7 after all, what more could you ask for.

<Dr. Ann stopped swivelling her chair, and approached Manager Trâm's model display shelf>

Dr. Ann: Wow, these models look so cool, auntie, <Reached her hand into the shelf, grabbed a toy model, and shook it> what is this for?

Manager Trâm: Hold on, don't touch that-

Addendum 036-4: Dr. Ann's Interview

LOG


«BEGIN LOG»

Manager Trâm: How are you?

Dr. Ann: Fine.

Manager Trâm: Do you remember anything when you uhm- how should I say this… when you were under the music box's influence?

Dr. Ann: What, something happened to me?

Manager Trâm: You acted with the mind of a child.

Dr. Ann: <Silenced>

Manager Trâm: Do you know where that music box comes from?

Dr. Ann: Well, that morning, as usual, I went to my office. There, I saw a cardboard box placed in front of the door, with my name on it. At first I thought it was a prank where if I opened the box, something's gonna explode but nope, inside was just a wooden box lying deep inside a bunch of bubble wraps.

Manager Trâm: Is there no other information?

Dr. Ann: No, I messed with the box for an entire day and no one noticed, the delivery guy said that there was a package addressed to me inside a delivery truck, so he placed it in front of my office door. The package didn't even have the sender's information.

Manager Trâm: Alright, last question, do you remember what happened between the time from July 8th 2022 to July 12th 2022?

Dr. Ann: Nope.

Manager Trâm: Hmm… alright, since you've returned to normal, please finish up with your backlog of paperwork. You missed quite a few. Regarding what that brat did to me, I don't mind, as long as you stop missing your deadlines.

Dr. Ann: …May I retake the music box?

<Manager Trâm stood up and moved briskly towards the door>

Manager Trâm: No, it is now Foundation property.

<Manager Trâm exited the room>

Dr. Ann: … Being a child… is truly better…
