 SCP-522 appears to be a square swatch of red carpet, approximately 3.5 meters on each side. When a human being stands atop it, SCP-522 wraps itself around the victim with surprising speed. Once the victim has been completely unfolded, thousands of hair-like protrusions extend from the surface of the carpet and dig into the victim's skin, quickly draining them of blood over the next few minutes. After draining the victim's blood, SCP-522 unwraps and attempts to return to its original position. Further investigation into the structure of SCP-522 indicates that it is a normal red carpet that has been infested by a previously unknown form of fungus or slime mold.
