… I know that look. And I know it because you want to ask me a question I’ve heard before. Go on, did you think you were the first? Everyone who tastes the Foundation’s nectar sooner or later wants to know about vampires, werewolves, the Yeti, Sasquatch, the chupacabras, Nessie, angels and demons. Or rather, they want to know whether they are real. And my answer is always the same: I have no answers, only stories to share. For example, how does an old Russian woman who eats human flesh sound…?
Well, at least they believe she is Russian. They found her "south of the country", not even I have been able to learn the exact location. How did the Foundation find out? Several strange deaths, reports of an "enchanted forest", and the insistence of having seen a witch there. Everything changed with the alert of her capture. The agents who arrived at the village where she was supposedly detained discovered several corpses in different states of decomposition. No one was left alive there… and the bloodstains suggested that the perpetrator of that massacre had retreated to his "forest".
The Foundation deployed "recovery teams", you know, bad guys well trained carrying a lot of lead. But as I said before, if there is something the Foundation never learns is that sometimes it bites off more than it can chew. The losses were significant, not only due to their lack of knowledge, but also due to a certain overconfidence. A weak old woman speaking ancient Russian that is barely understood. It shouldn’t be too hard to contain her, right?

Well, let me tell you this: Despite her appearance, SCP-352 moves loads of 200 kilograms without difficulty. Her movements exceed 70 kilometers per hour, and all she needs to regenerate her wounds is time. They tore off arms and legs, even decapitated her. Her recovery takes weeks in the most extreme cases… but she always comes back. And that’s not the worst part.
Her hair. Her hair is the worst… if we can truly call it that. SCP-352 makes it grow at will, several meters per hour. It crawls across floors and walls. Its strands are almost transparent, and most don’t see them until it’s too late. You see, SCP-352 produces an enzyme. Don’t ask me how: The Foundation ignores it, as well as its exact chemical composition. We only understand the effects upon contact with that enzyme. Hallucinations, euphoria, delirium, absence of pain. The effect lasts several days even with minimal contact, and becomes permanent in higher doses. That’s when SCP-352 sits down to dine.
A Cannibal's Diet
Once she traps them in her web, SCP-352 devours the legs and arms of her victims (already docile at this point) to minimize the possibility of escape. A sort of "all you can eat" in cannibal version, extending for days until nothing is left. SCP-352’s bites inject even more enzyme into her prey, who continue under a state of euphoria until their last moments.
The Foundation has a lot to learn about SCP-352. She is very strong, extremely hostile, and almost every attempt at communication ended in violence, not to mention that her ancient Russian is a translation nightmare. What has she said so far? That she will take revenge, that she will devour us and our children. That last part gave the Foundation a disturbing advantage. After conducting some experiments, they discovered that SCP-352 "prefers", or rather, finds it hard to resist the flesh of children who are not older than two years. Her docility and cooperation levels grow drastically after consuming it.
And no, obtaining infant flesh is not a problem for the Foundation...
