 Item No. SCP-1950 Object Class, Euclid Special Containment Procedures Due to SCP-1950's effect, a warehouse has been constructed with a further 20 meter allowance for any unforeseen addition to its effect. Security cameras and motion detectors are set up around the facility to alert of anyone approaching the warehouse. Two armed security personnel are to be on duty at all times. No one is allowed to interact with SCP-1950, and any personnel or intruders that do so are considered part of the SCP. Their position is to be noted, and the effect diameter adjusted accordingly. Description SCP-1950 is a two-bedroom house consisting of three floors, including a basement situated in ██████, Texas. The house is located approximately 20 miles from the nearest town. The surrounding area is bare in desert, and no other houses are visible. The state of the house is in moderately poor condition, such as roof tiles are falling away, outer paint is peeling away, plant life in the front yard is dying or dead, but it is still inhabitable. The house's mailbox reads 149, The Thompson's Abode. Thermal imaging suggests there are four individuals in the house. These are believed to be the Thompson's. SCP-1950-1 believed to be Mr. Thompson is in the basement at a very hot object, the probable cause of the explosion. SCP-1950-2, Mrs. Thompson, can be seen through a window and was believed to be the kitchen. SCP-1950-3, dubbed Junior Thompson, is seen walking through the kitchen toward the screen door while stating something to Mrs. Thompson. A toddler, SCP-1950-4, is in a cot in the first floor bedroom. Due to SCP-1950 anomalous properties, further inspection into the house and basement is limited by the view from perimeter of its effects. Full descriptions can be found in Addendum 1950-1. SCP-1950 is stuck in a permanent 4-second time loop, which at the climax rewinds to the beginning. The timeline of the 4 seconds is as follows. 0-1. SCP-1950-2 is washing up dishes at a sink in the kitchen. As he remains in this position the entire time, SCP-1950-3 enters the room. SCP-1950-1 makes a rapid motion as if to throw something. 1-2. SCP-1950-3 moves through the room and briefly converses with the SCP-1950-2 as he moves to the back door. SCP-1950-1 begins to move rapidly towards the stairs. 2-3. SCP-1950-3 begins to open the door. SCP-1950-1 ascends half the stairwell. 3-3.5. The large heat signature in the basement grows by 10%. 3.5-4. An explosion that originates from the basement rips through the house, with large fireballs breaking through every window. There are no survivors. The explosion reaches approximately 2-4 meter out before the loop rewinds to the same speed. Their time loop is therefore 8 seconds long. Any and all interaction with SCP-1950 adds to the effect diameter, which currently stands at 40 meter at the epicenter of the explosion. Should anyone or anything cross the effect diameter during the 4 seconds, they will be caught in a 4 second time loop that will rewind to climax. Should someone approach the house at the 2 second marker, for example at the point of the explosion, they will rewind back 4 seconds, even at the beginning of their 4 seconds with originally outside the previous effect diameter. This essentially adds to the effect diameter, and the distance of effect is considered to have increased to the object or person's position at their initial 4 second start point. Addendum 1950-1 SCP-1950-1 Mr. Thompson The appearance of Mr. Thompson is limited to the size of the windows into the basement. He is a Caucasian male approximately 30-40 years old, a medium billed in about 180 cm tall. SCP-1950-2 Mrs. Thompson is a Caucasian female approximately 175 cm. She is wearing a floral red and white dress with matching circular earrings and hairband. Her makeup is immaculate. SCP-1950-3 Junior Thompson is a young Caucasian male approximately 4-6 years old. He approaches the back door with a baseball bat, catching mitt and ball, wearing denim dungarees and a backward baseball cap. SCP-1950-4 A female toddler approximately 2-3 years of age, wearing a pink night outfit and bow with a sleep at the master bedroom. Researchers note, it appears the family is typical of a 1950-style era. The interior and family structure, from what we can see is very stereotypical of a nuclear family, a housewife, a father and two kids, the elder being an older brother. The interior is bright and colorful, with many appliances familiar to a 1950s household. It suggests this event has been playing over for the last 60 years. It is surprising that no one has discovered or interacted with it sooner, which is a blessing in disguise, and as peculiar as this is, it doesn't bring us any closer to how it keeps repeating itself. The only thing this is useful for is being able to set your watch to it. Addendum 1950-02 Further research is ongoing into who the Thompson Family were. A search through census records of the local town puts a Thompson Family at 149 ██████ Avenue and it contains the archived photo. No other records pertaining to the family or events of that time are known to exist.
