About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as a regular was folding clothes in MA’s Coin Laundry, he overheard a delivery driver muttering under his breath: ‘I swear, every time I come here, that dryer starts itself.’ The next day, when another delivery guy arrived with a load of linens, he casually asked if anyone had noticed the dryer running on its own again. A neighbor chimed in, 'Oh yeah, it does that sometimes.' The delivery man shook his head and muttered, 'Guess I’ll just keep my change in my pants pocket today!'

2. At dawn, when most laundromats were empty, an early riser noticed something strange happening near MA’s Coin Laundry. A delivery truck kept pulling up, its driver never getting out—just leaving bags of detergent and walking away without a word. One day, a regular customer asked the owner why the same delivery guy always left without saying hello. The owner shrugged and said, 'He must be on some secret mission.' From then on, everyone started greeting him with a nod and a smile, thinking they were part of a top-secret detergent operation.

3. At midnight, while a delivery driver sorted packages in MA’s Coin Laundry, he swore he saw a ghostly figure folding shirts so neatly it had to be magic. Curious, the driver followed the ghostly form and found himself staring at an old lady with a mischievous twinkle in her eye. ‘Just helping out,’ she said, handing him a freshly folded shirt. Turns out, she was a regular customer who’d left her laundry behind years ago.

4. At sunset, while a neighbor was drying her clothes in MA’s Coin Laundry, she heard faint laughter coming from behind the machines. Curious, she peeked around the corner and saw nothing but shadows dancing on the wall. Suddenly, one of the coin slots lit up with a soft glow, and a tiny voice whispered, ‘Thank you for your patience!’ Turning back, she found herself facing only empty racks. From then on, whenever someone mentioned MA’s Coin Laundry, everyone smiled and nodded knowingly—even the delivery driver would wink and say, ‘It’s just an old machine trying to make friends.’
