Douglas is one of many who found a

2:57

new life through Seattle's Union Gospel Mission. I

3:00

was living on the streets when I heard

3:02

this guy talk about how he got clean

3:04

and sober at the mission, so I decided

3:06

to give it a try. I could feel

3:09

something working inside of me, and I knew

3:11

I was getting better. Today, my number one

3:13

goal is to stay clean and sober. To

6:33

Despite receiving emergency medical care, John

6:35

McAclar was declared deceased 16 hours

6:37

after his admission to hospital. While

6:40

the cause of death is unclear as of this writing,

6:42

anomalous influences are suspected following the

6:44

recovery of the victim's personal cell

6:46

phone and an autopsy performed by

6:48

Foundation Medical Staff. Addendum

6:51

1. Forensic report. Phone

6:54

notes. Yeah.

7:20

Those tidbits of yours? They

7:22

did absolutely nothing. I just

7:25

had to rush myself to the ER for the second

7:27

time this week. They took

7:29

one look at me and rushed me inside for treatment. The

7:32

doctors were picking scabs and dead skin off

7:34

for hours before lathering me with enough lidocaine

7:36

to paralyze a horse. They

7:39

said if I scratched anymore, I'd

7:41

be shredding into the literal bone.

7:45

Look, I understand you're just trying to

7:47

do your job. And I know you're

7:49

not my doctor. But

7:52

can you please do

7:54

something about this, Shelly? I'll

7:56

make sure to schedule another appointment. Hey,

8:04

Shelley. I woke

8:06

up this morning to a three-inch millipede

8:08

crawling inside my mouth. I

8:11

could feel its shell swishing around

8:13

in my spit and

8:16

the dry taste of wriggling

8:18

little legs crawling along my

8:21

tongue. I

8:23

actually felt like I

8:25

was gonna wrench when it started

8:27

rubbing against my gums. I

8:31

had to rush to the bathroom and puke everything out.

8:33

I also managed to

8:35

grip some pesticide in case I need to

8:38

hose something down the sink. But,

8:41

of course, nothing came

8:43

out. Just wretch

8:45

and mucus. Like

8:47

always. I'm

8:50

sure I have the vomit caked outside

8:52

my mouth still, but frankly, I

8:55

don't care enough to clean it. It's

8:57

not worth standing in front of a mirror trying

8:59

to scrape it all off. After

9:02

all, the last thing I want is to

9:04

find a tape or an inch in that

9:07

slimy body inside my eye somewhere while I

9:09

wipe my face. Shelley,

9:18

I really can't eat this anymore. I'm

9:21

constantly suffering. My

9:23

coworkers keep telling me to stop biting my

9:26

nails at work. And

9:28

they won't stop teasing me and saying that

9:30

I'm not hygienic. Whatever. They

9:33

just don't understand that I'm doing it for

9:35

a reason. But

9:38

it's whatever. At

9:41

least the nurses stopped giving me weird

9:43

glances after I started coming in for

9:45

burns instead of claw marks. Speaking

9:48

of coworkers, I've

9:51

had to add another few days off from

9:53

last week's schedule. Everything

9:55

was fine until I

9:57

Saw the fire ants crawling underneath my skin.

10:01

Got so bad on one of the security

10:03

guards had to restrain me was can cause.

10:06

I can. Still,

10:09

Managed to get arrested them

10:11

asked me what a bit

10:13

by some uncomfortable regulate. Drugs

10:17

are still stuck in between my

10:19

software. Yet

10:21

again another reminder to give you

10:23

what I see you again. Your

10:27

picture of me? Game

10:29

shows you are. Here's

10:35

the thing about all the other

10:37

10:39

10:42

10:44

15:23

my name is John

15:26

MacGackler And

15:28

I was hoping I could maybe get

15:30

a hold of someone about my upcoming

15:32

appointment. I know you

15:34

guys You guys

15:37

listed down someone named Rahim.

15:39

This is my counselor but

15:43

well, I was hoping to

15:45

change that to Shelly Sorry

15:48

about all this. I fat fingered

15:50

when I was making the selection on the

15:52

screen big hands

15:55

you know Anyway,

15:58

thanks Oh, if

16:02

you need to reach me again, you can just call

16:04

this number again. Or email

16:06

me, I guess. Alright,

16:09

bye. Hi,

16:12

it's John again. You

16:15

know, the guy

16:17

that keeps scheduling all the appointments? I

16:21

was just wondering what a good time

16:23

would be to fix my little

16:25

error from before.

16:28

I know you... Sorry.

16:33

You all keep trying to call, but it's just

16:36

difficult to respond sometimes. Anyway,

16:40

I don't know for him, and I don't think it

16:43

would be a good idea if I saw him. Please

16:46

call me back. Hi,

16:52

John MacCackler here. I

16:55

saw that somebody made that

16:57

change like I asked. That's

17:01

great. I appreciate it.

17:04

I... Oh, please

17:07

excuse me. Alright,

17:19

back. Sorry, I had

17:22

to make a quick trip to the

17:24

bathroom, you know. Not

17:27

pee or anything, no, just to make

17:29

sure I wasn't scratching too much. It's

17:33

the reason I've been trying to get in with you

17:36

guys again. Aw,

17:38

this is awkward. Sorry, I just

17:42

wanted to see if Shelley was around. She

17:45

was going to help me. Thanks.

17:54

Hi again, this is John. Are

17:58

you fucking kidding me here? I've

18:01

been calling you guys like five or six times

18:03

now and none of you ever

18:05

reach out. What's the deal?

18:09

You guys can't just keep calling me at like 2pm

18:12

anymore. I understand

18:14

you. I'll probably work 9 to 5 but

18:16

I'm busy dealing with problems I can't even

18:18

fix on my own. It

18:20

wouldn't even be that bad if you just picked up

18:22

your phones. But no.

18:26

I have to keep fucking suffering until

18:28

somebody calls me Bob. Look,

18:31

I just need to talk to Shelly,

18:33

okay? I

18:35

am absolutely sick of

18:37

asking. All I need

18:40

is just someone who understands.

18:44

Someone who gets me. I'm

18:47

not trying to be creepy, okay? I

18:50

just need help from

18:53

someone! Hi,

18:59

this is John. I'll

19:01

be in at 4 tomorrow. I

19:04

expect a supervisor when I arrive. Hey

20:15

to the show. Recorded

20:19

memos. Log begins.

20:28

I... Sorry. You're fine.

20:31

Give me a second. Take your time. I...

20:37

Is it okay if we recorded

20:40

this for my

20:42

sake? I mean... Of course. Whatever

20:45

helps you, John. It

20:48

really would. Okay.

20:53

I think I have everything. You sure? I

20:56

think so now. Okay. Great. I

21:01

heard you had some trouble reaching us. I'm

21:03

really sorry about that. It's

21:06

okay now. I mean,

21:08

I'm pretty mad still. But

21:11

it's fine so long as I can actually, you know,

21:14

speak with someone. Well, I

21:16

appreciate your patience, then. I

21:19

was looking at your record again, and I saw that

21:21

you scheduled this because you were

21:23

experiencing symptoms again. Is this

21:26

correct? Yes. Yes,

21:28

you're right. Looks like you were given

21:30

some medication by your doctor. Have

21:33

you been taking it? Yes, Shelley, I have. And

21:36

I'm telling you, it's not working.

21:38

That's unfortunate. Would you

21:41

mind telling me how it's not working for you? How?

21:45

What do you mean, how? I'm

21:47

just asking a question, John. How

21:50

do you not see them? They're

21:52

everywhere now. Can you point to me

21:54

where? Exactly. Maybe if you can

21:56

show me. I'm showing you! Right now!

21:59

I- Look, I'm even

22:01

scratching them off! John, please,

22:04

take a breath for me. Just

22:06

look, Shelley. I'm telling

22:08

you, they're right here! John, I

22:11

don't see anything. But

22:13

I do! I understand that. And

22:16

I'd like to help, but I need

22:18

you to try and calm down if you

22:20

want to continue. I... I...

22:23

I... I'm sorry. That's

22:25

quite alright. It's why I'm here. Let's

22:27

take a quick break, okay? Log

22:33

on. Log

22:36

begin. Thank

22:42

you, Shelley. I

22:44

really needed that. Not a problem. Like

22:47

I said, it's why I'm here. So

22:55

you can't see them either, right?

22:58

No, John, I can't. And

23:00

I won't be able to. Because

23:03

they don't exist, right?

23:08

Let me ask you a question. How

23:10

do they exist to you? What

23:13

do you see when they appear? I...

23:17

I see them as many things, you

23:19

know. Such as? Well,

23:24

often I see ants. Large

23:27

ones with big, meaty

23:29

jaws. Sometimes

23:31

I see spiders and worms as well.

23:35

Really, the worms only appear in the

23:37

light. Right underneath

23:39

my eyes. I see. Does

23:42

it hurt? Sometimes it does.

23:45

I guess... I guess

23:47

it just sort of depends. Would

23:50

you be able to elaborate on that? I

23:52

really don't know how to explain it. I

23:55

guess it just depends on my mood or

23:59

what I'm seeing. you know spiders

24:02

hurt the most especially

24:05

when they like bite

24:07

down and is this

24:09

separate from your injuries are

24:12

you feeling this pain even in spots where you

24:14

haven't been bitten I don't

24:16

know I see do

24:21

you see them them the insects

24:26

like right now yes I

24:31

well not

24:33

really it's hard

24:35

for me to find them when I'm

24:38

actively looking sometimes I can

24:40

tell you're bothered would you

24:42

be able to explain why

24:44

explain only if you're able to I

24:47

mean how about

24:51

you live a life where everyone tells you that

24:54

your mind is wrong I mean

24:59

seriously everywhere I

25:01

go everything I

25:03

do it's always the same

25:07

I know my reality is real and

25:10

I know that what I see aren't just these illusions

25:13

that everyone makes them out to be I've

25:16

never not been able to trust my eyes you know

25:18

I understand and

25:20

then one day you wake up and people

25:23

tell you to ignore all that and depend like

25:25

nothing's happening it's frustrating

25:28

and it's exhausting right yes

25:31

you're exactly right I'm

25:34

tired Shelley I'm

25:36

26:00

I'm about to

26:02

size my palm. And it's brown,

26:06

clinging to the side of my finger. Mm-hmm.

26:09

It has two massive pincers in the front.

26:12

It's four legs around its abdomen. It's

26:15

crawling. A beetle? No.

26:19

No, it's far too large. I...

26:22

I think it might be a... It's

26:28

32:30

Our appointment is not until tomorrow. Can

32:32

32:34

you don't get it. It's

32:37

bad. I swear I just blinked

32:39

and I saw a bunch of termites just pure from

32:41

my glass. I'm scratching

32:43

myself to the bone now. I

32:46

need your help right now. I'm

32:49

going to die. John, if

32:51

you need emergency help, please contact the

33:24

I'm contacting the police right now. They can

33:26

33:32

I'm in pain right now? Help

33:35

me. Help me. I'm

33:38

blocking this number. Please do not come near

33:40

me. You fucking cunt.

33:43

Is this how it is? I

33:45

knew you were a lying scumbag. I

33:49

swear you will regret this.

33:53

I'm sorry. Vogue

34:00

begins. Recording

34:02

begins with the camera on top of a dining room

34:04

table. Two chairs, still

34:06

pushed in, somewhat obstruct the camera's view of

34:09

John MacAquilah as he paces frantically from one

34:11

side to another. He

34:13

stands in front of a sofa and a TV currently playing

34:15

the Channel 16 news. No

34:18

audio can be heard. John

34:20

whispers frantically as he continues pacing for

34:23

several seconds. He

34:25

stops mid-step, another mutter followed

34:27

by the words Shelly, before he grabs the

34:29

temples of his forehead. John

34:32

yells in apparent pain as he begins to scratch

34:34

his arms. Ragged marks

34:36

appear along the surface of his flesh. He

34:39

remains frozen in place as the barren scarred

34:41

skin becomes red from the friction. Blood

34:44

drips down from his elbows and onto the floor. He

34:47

wipes sweat off his brow before stripping his clothes.

34:50

First the shirt, then the pants,

34:52

and finally his undergarments. After

34:55

a brief moment of struggle he stands nude in front of

34:57

the camera. Along

34:59

his upper torso several jagged cuts and bruises

35:02

are visible. Severely bleeding

35:04

human bite marks along the left and right thighs

35:06

are also visible from this angle. John

35:09

retreats behind the camera and remains there for 34 seconds. He

35:13

soon returns with a chef's knife, a metal

35:15

fork and spoon, cleaning disinfectant,

35:18

a large pot of boiling water, and

35:20

a pair of slip joint pliers. He

35:24

haphazardly throws them across the floor and looks back at

35:26

the camera with a wide grin. John

35:29

mouths another comment before retrieving the chef's knife

35:31

from his side. He holds

35:33

the sharpened blade towards his left wrist. He

35:36

smiles before sliding the knife across, cutting

35:39

a deep laceration into the skin and tendons.

35:42

He tips his wrist towards the floor as blood begins

35:44

to drip and flow into a pool beneath. John

35:47

chuckles. The bleeding continues as

35:49

he makes another cut on his opposite arm. The

35:52

blood pulls further as John grabs the fork

35:55

and spoon on his opposite side. He

35:57

breathes deeply before plunging the spoon into his left wrist.

35:59

left eye. He rocks his

36:02

head backward as the spoon pierces into the

36:04

damaged socket. He twists and

36:06

yanks the spoon out, causing what remains of his

36:08

eye to fling onto the table. He

36:11

then turns toward the fork, poking the edge of

36:13

it underneath his index fingernail and quickly pulls backward.

36:17

The fingernail snaps off effortlessly, revealing

36:19

barren bleeding flesh underneath. Despite

36:22

the apparent pain, John grabs the pliers and

36:24

holds them firm toward his toe. He

36:27

continues clamping down before inexplicably twisting

36:30

the pliers, causing the big

36:32

toe to contort and dislocate at a sixty degree

36:34

angle. He reels backward once

36:36

more, pausing briefly as he drops the pliers

36:38

onto the floor. He begins

36:41

to speak, but the camera cannot

36:43

discern anything beyond him mouthing drown. He

36:46

grabs the boiling water sitting nearby and pours

36:49

it along his face and upper torso. Hot

36:52

steam races around his body. His

36:54

arms writhe in pain, but he does not attempt

36:56

to brush the water off. John

36:59

can now barely be seen in the video. Nothing

37:02

occurs for approximately thirty seconds as the

37:04

steam dissipates. John remains

37:06

motionless in front of the dining room table. Suddenly

37:10

John begins smiling again. His

37:13

teeth, which can now be seen on the camera

37:15

footage, are stained red from blood. He

37:18

utters another phrase, but only Shelly

37:21

can be discerned. John

37:23

frowns just as the video camera falls down.

37:26

Recording ceases abruptly. The agains.

37:32

Addendum 2. Update On

37:35

August 1, 2022, Foundation scientists were

37:37

able to perform a complete autopsy

37:39

of SCP-7160. One

37:43

week later, on August 6, 2022, a

37:46

subsequent report on the anomaly's corpse

37:48

was logged and stored within Site-119.

37:51

While this report does confirm several key

37:53

facts about SCP-7160's death,

37:56

several other discoveries were also uncovered.

38:00

From Sep Seven One Six Zero

38:02

report. Besides

38:04

the injuries, Scp Seventy

38:06

One Sixty possess. Certain

38:08

you need. Peculiarities,

38:11

For example, when we extracted

38:13

tissue samples for examination doctor

38:15

Riders denied discovered the presence

38:17

of distinct markings along the

38:20

inside of his skin. And

38:22

various internal scrapes along the cranium.

38:26

Speaking. Of the skull, deeper

38:28

scans and skills and some large

38:30

bacon tumble systems terminating points throughout

38:33

the hands least and open orifices.

38:35

The marrow and calcified shell the

38:37

victims hollowed bones seems to have

38:40

created the perfect ecosystem for whatever

38:42

was living with. Additional.

38:45

After penetrating will have the

38:47

dermis, we saw that the

38:50

interstitial was completely drained of

38:52

fluid. While ordinarily this may

38:54

be the result of rare

38:56

genetic circumstances orders severe external

38:58

damage, this particular cases not

39:01

believed to have resulted in

39:03

structural abnormalities to the body.

39:05

rather analysis tissues and the

39:07

surrounding area has since been

39:09

found to contain nearly invisible

39:12

chitinous dust in it's place.

39:15

Following Sep Seven one six

39:17

years autopsy, another investigation into

39:19

John mechanical or smartphone was

39:21

initiated. Upon further analysis

39:23
