[[>]] [[module Rate]] [[/>]] **Item #:** SCP-4325 **Object Class:** Euclid **Special Containment Procedures:** Foundation web crawlers are to search internet forums and social media sites for accounts of SCP-4325 and its effects. If an individual is found to have been afflicted with SCP-4325, they are to be located and sent to a Foundation quarantine facility, with staff to record the individual's symptoms and to check if SCP-4325 is present in their retina. If the symptom is unique enough to be classed as a variation of SCP-4325, it is to be recorded in Log-4325-A. Foundation front companies are to raise awareness and encourage research of "visual snow", as to help distinguish it from SCP-4325's anomalous effects. **Description:** SCP-4325 is an anomalous phenomenon and affliction that primarily affects those with the condition known as "visual snow", in which the user's vision displays a light amount of 'static', akin to a poorly tuned analogue television [See Log-4325-A for more information regarding symptoms]. When SCP-4325 has infested and activated within an individual (now designated SCP-4325-1), their vision will begin to be overtaken by static. Within 3 hours of being afflicted, SCP-4325-1's vision will be completely overridden, leading to a complete loss of normal function within the eyes[[footnote]]One variation: SCP-4325-BW, did not display these properties until 2 weeks after manifestation.[[/footnote]]. Tests have shown that only the subject's vision is affected, and other senses such as hearing and touch are not normally affected, although those with tinnitus report hearing noise akin to a radio tuned to a non-existent station. Individuals affected by the main anomalous symptom of SCP-4325 (plain animated static) also report visual hallucinations of seemingly random objects and entities within the static. Analysis of these reports indicate that these hallucinations are caused by SCP-4325-1's mind, and not an anomalous effect of SCP-4325 itself. During physical examinations, symptoms of SCP-4325 have been found within the retina of the subject's eye. To date, every infected individual has displayed this property.

He then began to yell for personnel at 12:03 pm, screaming about how his vision has completely decayed. > > ------ > > **Dr. Ellis:** So, what exactly do you see, with your...condition? > > **D-98523:** Don't you know what visual snow is, man? I mean, it's pretty damn obvious. > > **Dr. Ellis:** I may be a scientist, but I am not familiar with the condition, no. Can you describe it? > > **D-98523:** Well, in short, it's like looking through broken eyes. You think it's all normal, you think everyone else has it. But then it starts getting worse, and eventually you can't see anything anymore, except for one thing. > > **Dr. Ellis:** What's that one thing? > > > **D-98523:** Static, man. I feel like a broken tv. > > > **Closing Statement:** D-98523 refused to answer more questions. Research into classification as an anomaly is ongoing.

What happened? > > **Miles:** I don't know! I was just sitting in the break room and I saw the tv was off. When I went to check it, my vision just... changed. > > **Dr. Ellis:** Changed how, Miles? > > **Miles:** What do you mean how? Can't you see it in my eyes? It's as plain as night and day. > > > (//Miles holds his head in his hands//) > > **Miles:** I... I can't see colour. > > **Closing Statement:** Unique variation of SCP-4325 is to be now classed as SCP-4325-RW.

Would you mind describing it to me? > > **Romeo:** Sure, what else do I have to lose? Can't see shit anymore. All I see now is just text, floating. > > **Dr. Ellis:** Text? Like floating words? > > **Romeo:** Yes, that text! Can't you see it? It's everywhere, on the walls, the ceiling, my wife's face, you name it! It's here right now... > > > **Dr. Ellis:** Wait, right now? What does it say, Romeo? > > **Romeo:** "No signal." > > **Closing Statement:** Shortly after the interview, Romeo's vision went to include colour bars used to test North American analogue televisions. Unique variation of SCP-4325 is to be now classed as SCP-4325-NW.

This unique variation of SCP-4325 is to be classed as SCP-4325-BW. Contrary to other variations of SCP-4325, the manifestation of static and complete vision loss did not occur until approximately 2 weeks after symptoms manifested.

I'm here to ask a few questions about your "thing". Are you able to do that? > > **Steve:** Oh, I would love to Miss! Thank you so much for asking! > > **Dr. Ellis:** No problem, Mr. Jackson. > > **Steve:** Right. If I can remember correctly, it started shortly after my 95th birthday, and I was pretty sure it was just a dream. But when I saw it in real life let me tell you, I was pretty shocked! > > **Dr. Ellis:** Shocked for what, Mr. Jackson? > > **Steve**: I, uh, saw this image, an image of a little girl with a clown. You remember those things? They had the colours and that picture when the channels went down? All I could see was that, but then I saw...and I saw... > > (//Mr. Jackson remained silent for the rest of the interview. He was admitted to the ████ hospital shortly after.//) > > **Closing Statement:** This unique variation of SCP-4325 is to be classed as SCP-4325-TW. Further monitoring of Steve Jackson will be implemented in the event of this variation of SCP-4325 changing. [[/collapsible]] **Addendum:** During a routine physical examination of a user infected with SCP-4325 on ██/██/████, a variation of SCP-4325-TW was found. Along with the subject's retina displaying Test Card W, a block of text with the words "COME ON" flashed numerous times. The subject then reported a noise akin to multiple objects shattering, with what seemed to be an individual sobbing. These developments have led to ongoing efforts to identify and contain the source of SCP-4325, if one exists.
