Special Containment Procedures: Containment of SCP-6448 should be focused on investigation of deer exhibiting anomalous traits within and around the Appalachian area.1 All civilian sightings of SCP-6448 should be attended to by Mobile Task Force Gamma-4 (“Green Stags”). Possible deaths resulting from SCP-6448 should be attributed to hiking accidents, and sightings are to be blamed upon Chronic Wasting Disease.

Author of the article here. It's so strange (anomalous, some may say) to see TheVolgun, who first introduced me to SCP during lockdown, reading one of my articles. Thank you so much, Volgun, and thank you everyone else here for enjoying what I've written! :)

I love that the containment procedures for this basically state "if you see something, no you didn't. If you hear something, no you didn't."

[elitemook]

What the heck kind of 911 operator instructs someone to walk into the woods to investigate a strange voice calling their name?

[wumbosauce]

Oh deer
Oh... deer?
Oh not deer?
Oh deer...

[FeedMeSalt]

As a kid I slept on the living room couch often. One night sometime after midnight I woke up but couldn't figure out why.
Then a half second after looking around my family dog walked past the living room into the kitchen on its hind legs like a person.
Freaked me the hell out because our dog to my knowledge couldn't walk on two legs.
Then I realized our dog was under the blanket at my feet. Asleep in a ball.
I lost my mind and screamed for my mom. Who came and calmed me down.

It was almost certainly a waking dream, something kids experience often.
But holy hell I hated that "not dog"

"If you're out in the woods, and you hear someone call your name; no you didn't."

What I think is most interesting about the not-deer in this case is not just that these guys are shapeshifting aliens wearing terrible deer disguises... but moreso *why* the deer disguises are so awful in the first place. For a creature that is used to being able to change its form and appearance at will (and assuming that this is a common characteristic among competing lifeforms in the environment they evolved in), it might not make any biological sense for them to be able to recognize slight differences in 'static' lifeforms. In other words, they might see their deer costume as being 'close enough', but to us, its an obviously incorrect representation.

The deer were allowing themselves to be caught.

"Since the capture site was relocated to another continent, no deer have been caught."

They knew that other deer could rescue them using tunnels. Now that this is impossible, they aren't letting themselves be caught anymore.

Edit: during the "interview" with the deer at the end of the video, it utters one word: "research." That's why they were letting themselves get caught. To see the inside of the facility.

These are my favorite types of SCP's. Not world-ending, all-powerful eldritch entities that can destroy the universe; just really interesting, strange creatures that are well-written.

[Tula-csef]

As a deer hunter in the Appalachian. This scares the shit out of me, more so the fact the eyes are forward because prey don't have that. Predators on the other hand

[ammyfatxolotl]

I live in Georgia, hit a deer once, moreso it walked into me.

It's so insanely dark out here and I have a legit fear of these things because they just appear and disappear at random.

Something is always creepy with them.

Used to live in the bonus room of my parents' house in the woods and a flock would gather at 12 AM almost exactly every night right outside my window.

Just creeps me out.

[renatobilodeau]

The date of July 7, 1947 and the UFO appearances near site-44 suggest that this SCP has something to do with the Roswell Incident of 1947.

[dragonyami]

Dang, those are some really INCOMPETENT emergency services, telling the caller to 'Go Investigate Yourself'
Wow...

[Aknaught]

One of my favorite bits of horror in this is the mention of them having 'forward-facing eyes'. What else usually has forward-facing eyes? Predators.

[raycearcher]

Between Not Deer and The Deer, it seems like we should just avoid anything remotely LIKE a deer.

[Gilbert_gang.]

I LOVE the mention of missing 441 being a SCP cover up you could make so many stories around that

[mercurial-mons]

"Your survival is dependant on your ignorance." it's such a good and creepy line, especially for us the curious ones.

I'm only half way, but enjoying it so much, love the little encounters, almost like an anthology of short horror stories.
Also yeah, a cryptid, but it reminds me of analog horror, with the emergency calls, and found footage of these occurrences.

[v.k.]

The deer's voice and sound effects were very impressive.

[quinnroberts]

Ah ya now that's the good old-fashioned SCP stuff I love. No existential, time manipulating, reality bending concept entities, just some spooky deer who recently discovered scientology.
