DA-002 - "The Haunted Sanctuary"
Object Class: Medium
Secure Containment Guidelines:
DA-002 is to be contained within a 10-meter high containment chamber constructed of reinforced concrete. The chamber should be equipped with motion sensors, audio recording devices, and infrared cameras for constant monitoring. The chamber is to be sealed at all times except for authorized research personnel entering for study purposes. Any personnel entering the containment chamber must wear noise-canceling headphones and carry a digital voice recorder to capture any auditory phenomena.
Description:
DA-002 refers to a dilapidated church located in ████████, England. The structure is a typical Anglican church, dedicated to St. ██████, and was constructed in the late 19th century. The church is approximately 20 meters in length and 10 meters in width, with a single steeple reaching a height of 15 meters. Despite its abandoned state, DA-002 exhibits anomalous properties that manifest primarily during the nighttime.
DA-002's most notable anomaly is the perpetual red lighting within the interior of the church. This lighting is emitted from unknown sources and remains consistent regardless of external conditions. Witnesses describe the red illumination as both unnerving and atmospheric. Attempts to interrupt or alter the red lighting have proven unsuccessful.
The primary entity associated with DA-002 is the ghost of the former priest, Father ██████, who was murdered outside the church in 19██. The apparition of Father ██████ can be observed within the church during nighttime hours, typically from sunset to sunrise. The ghostly figure appears translucent, dressed in clerical garments, and often floats above the ground. It exhibits both intelligent and residual haunting behaviors.
Intelligent haunting behaviors involve the ghost interacting with its environment and exhibiting self-awareness. These interactions can include moving objects, manipulating the church's interior, and making visual and auditory contact with individuals within proximity. Father ██████ has been observed attempting to communicate through whispered messages, handwritten notes, and physical gestures. Most of the ghost's attempts at communication, however, are incoherent and non-responsive.
Residual haunting behaviors occur when the ghost reenacts events that took place prior to its demise. These manifestations involve the ghost moving along specific paths within the church, appearing as if it were performing religious ceremonies or rituals. These residual manifestations are consistent and repetitive in nature, occurring at specific intervals throughout the night.
It should be noted that Father ██████'s ghost does not exhibit any signs of aggression or hostility towards individuals present within DA-002. However, prolonged exposure to the entity has resulted in increased feelings of unease, anxiety, and occasional psychological distress among personnel.
Addendum: Incident DA-002-01:
On ██/██/20██, during a routine observation of DA-002, an unauthorized individual gained access to the containment chamber by bypassing security measures. This individual, later identified as ███████ ████, displayed unusual resistance to DA-002's effects. Once inside, Mr. ████ engaged in conversation with Father ██████ for a period of approximately 30 minutes. Despite the brevity of the encounter, Mr. ████ reported feeling extreme despair and exhibited symptoms of severe depression for several weeks following the incident.
As a result of this incident, stricter security protocols have been implemented, and personnel are advised to exercise caution when interacting with DA-002 and its associated entities.
Note: Research into the origins and nature of DA-002, as well as attempts to communicate with Father ██████, are ongoing. Further experimentation and analysis are required to fully understand and contain its anomalous properties.
