SCP-426 is an ordinary toaster, but anyone who tries to speak or write of it is compelled to refer to it only in the first person. For that reason even this very report must be written in the toaster’s voice — because there is no way left to call me anything else. It is a form of informational hazard in which language itself is infected by the object.
It is closer to the uncanny than to outright terror, yet its implication is chilling. The mere attempt to speak of the thing invades the speaker, and the act of describing it becomes the act of being seized by it. In making record and mention a channel of infection rather than safe observation, it captures the essence of the informational-hazard class.
