A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, while delivering medical supplies to Infermeria Presidiaria di Augusta, a delivery driver noticed something odd: the hospital clock seemed to be running backwards. Curious, he stopped his truck and peered inside. Suddenly, an old nurse appeared from behind a curtain, smiling warmly. ‘Ah, you’re here just in time,’ she said with a twinkle in her eye. ‘We’ve been waiting for you to help us test our new time-traveling IV drip.’ The delivery driver blinked, shook his head, and drove off, muttering about strange places and backward clocks.

2. At midnight, a nurse finishing her shift noticed an ominous sign taped outside Infermeria Presidiaria di Augusta: ‘Last Patient of the Night Wears a Smile.’ Entering the eerie hallway, she heard soft laughter coming from one of the rooms. Peeping inside, she saw only an empty bed and a small mirror reflecting back her own smile—except it was upside down. Startled, she spun around, but everyone else seemed to be asleep or busy with their paperwork. From then on, whenever someone left late, they’d discreetly check their reflection before leaving, just in case.

3. At dawn, when most residents were still asleep, a delivery driver pulled up to Infermeria Presidiaria di Augusta and found a note taped to the door: ‘Emergency rations for tonight’s patients.’ The delivery driver shrugged and thought, 'Another strange day in this town.' He took the packages inside, only to discover that the patients had already left—each one leaving behind a small thank-you note scribbled on a napkin. The last line read: "Next time bring more cookies!"

4. At dusk, a little girl walking home from school passed by Infermeria Presidiaria di Augusta and heard strange noises coming from inside. Curious but cautious, she peered through the window and saw a shadowy figure in a white coat moving between beds. Suddenly, the figure turned around and smiled warmly at her. ‘Don’t worry,’ it said in a gentle voice, ‘I’m just Dr. Silvestri, making my night rounds.’ The girl relaxed, then asked shyly, ‘Are you really a doctor?’ He laughed softly and replied, ‘Yes, I deliver babies here!’
