Physical Attributes

SCP-178 is a pair of white stereoscopic 3D glasses with a black frame. When worn by a human subject, SCP-178 causes the wearer to perceive a third entity, designated SCP-178-1. This entity appears as a shadowy figure that mimics the movements of the wearer. SCP-178-1 is not visible to anyone else, leading to confusion and distress for the wearer.

SCP-372, on the other hand, is a creature resembling a giant, hairy eyeball with long, rubbery tentacles. It is capable of moving at high speeds and is extremely agile. SCP-372 uses its tentacles to sense vibrations in its environment, allowing it to detect the presence of nearby organisms. It is known to be highly intelligent and has been observed to exhibit predatory behavior.

Behavior

SCP-178-1, the entity perceived by the wearer of SCP-178, is known to mimic the movements of the wearer with a slight delay. This mimicry can be disorienting and unsettling for the wearer, as SCP-178-1 appears to be a shadowy doppelganger following their every move. SCP-178-1 has been observed to become more aggressive and erratic over time, leading to increased psychological distress for the wearer.

SCP-372, on the other hand, is a predatory creature that uses its tentacles to hunt and capture prey. It is known to be highly intelligent and exhibits a cunning and strategic approach to hunting. SCP-372 is capable of blending into its environment and moving quickly to ambush unsuspecting victims. It is a formidable predator that poses a significant threat to any living organisms in its vicinity.

Containment Procedures

SCP-178 is to be kept in a standard containment locker at Site-██ when not in use for testing. Testing of SCP-178 is only to be conducted with the approval of at least two Level 3 personnel. Any personnel experiencing distress or unusual behavior while wearing SCP-178 are to be immediately removed from the testing area and monitored for psychological effects.

SCP-372 is to be contained in a reinforced steel containment chamber with walls at least 5 meters thick. The chamber is to be equipped with motion sensors and infrared cameras to monitor SCP-372's movements. Any unauthorized personnel entering SCP-372's containment chamber are to be immediately removed and amnesticized. Regular checks of the containment chamber are to be conducted to ensure the integrity of the containment measures.

Interaction with Personnel

Personnel interacting with SCP-178 are advised to be cautious and aware of the potential psychological effects of wearing the glasses. SCP-178 has been known to cause paranoia, hallucinations, and other psychological disturbances in wearers. Personnel are to report any unusual experiences or sensations while wearing SCP-178 to their superiors for further evaluation.

Personnel interacting with SCP-372 are advised to exercise extreme caution due to its predatory nature. SCP-372 is known to be highly intelligent and capable of outsmarting its prey. Personnel are to avoid direct contact with SCP-372 and to report any sightings or unusual behavior to security personnel immediately. Any breaches of containment involving SCP-372 are to be treated as high-priority emergencies.

Conclusion

SCP-178 and SCP-372 are both anomalous entities with unique attributes and behaviors. While SCP-178 causes psychological distress through the perception of SCP-178-1, SCP-372 poses a physical threat through its predatory nature. Both entities require careful containment and monitoring to prevent harm to personnel and ensure the safety of the surrounding environment. Understanding the differences between SCP-178 and SCP-372 is crucial for effective containment and management of these anomalous entities.
