Item #: SCP-2456

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2456 is to be kept in general storage room number ██. which is kept under the surveillance of one armed guard at all times. SCP-2456 should be kept in a box the width of which is not narrower than 0.5 meters on any one side. The box should be insulated completely with sound-proofing foam.

Description: SCP-2456 is a bronze bell, 8 inches tall and 6 inches at its widest point, of ████████ make. It is attached to a leather strap with white and red stitching. SCP-2456 can be removed from the strap safely.

When struck, SCP-2456 will ring approximately ███ times louder than would be expected of a bell of its size and material. SCP-2456 will undergo cosmetic damage such as scratches or dents if struck with enough force, but the metal will never shear or be punctured. Any damage that is sustained by SCP-2456 will regenerate over the course of 5 minutes to 1 hour depending on how hard SCP-2456 was struck.

SCP-2456 is not known to have a maximum decibel output. This makes SCP-2456 potentially extremely dangerous, as it could cause massive sonic damage if struck with enough force.

During testing to confirm claims made by the initial report the foundation received, SCP-2456 was struck with a pencil. This test resulted in ██ foundation personnel receiving medical treatment. Notably, █ personnel were diagnosed as completely deaf, and ██ personnel were diagnosed with permanent tinnitus. Any further testing is to be conducted in a heavily sound-proofed environment, and only with clearance given by a Level-4 staff member or above. If further testing is to be performed, there is to be a site-wide notice given 96 hours before the testing is done to ensure proper preventative measures can be implemented.

“Come on, how loud can it really be?” -Dr. ██████ before striking SCP-2456 with a pencil.
