About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, after closing hours, a little girl walked into After Hours Kids and pointed excitedly at something on the wall. The regulars watched in amusement as she giggled and reached for what appeared to be an ordinary doctor’s coat. Suddenly, everyone noticed that the coat was moving slightly—like it was breathing! A delivery driver whispered, ‘That’s not just any old coat—it’s Dr. Sleepytime himself!’ And sure enough, when someone finally dared to put it on, they started dozing off immediately. The little girl had found the perfect place for her nap, and soon everyone else followed suit.
2. One night, as a delivery driver approached After Hours Kids, he heard a voice whispering from inside: ‘Doctor, doctor, I’m not feeling well.’ Curious, he peered through the window and saw no one there. Suddenly, an old man appeared in the hallway, holding a stethoscope and muttering to himself: ‘I think she has a touch of whatever.’ The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking it was just another quirky doctor’s office. Later that evening, his daughter asked if they could visit again—after hours, of course.
3. In the early morning, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver pulled up to After Hours Kids. Curious, he glanced inside the empty store and noticed something odd on the counter—a small toy bear with a note that read: ‘Take care of my baby.’ The delivery driver picked up the bear, shrugged, and placed it in his truck. Later that day, while making another delivery, he accidentally left the bear on a neighbor’s porch. The note was still attached, causing quite a stir among the neighbors who thought someone had lost their child. Eventually, everyone realized it was just a prank from an anonymous regular, and they all laughed it off—except for the poor bear, who became the unlikely star of the neighborhood's morning gossip.
4. Late one evening, a doctor leaving After Hours Kids noticed an eerie message scrawled on the door in red ink: ‘Ask for Dr. Sleepy.’ Curious, he returned later that night only to find the reception empty. Finally, the doctor found himself answering a late-night call from someone asking for Dr. Sleepy. Turned out it was just a delivery driver who mistook him for the resident sleep expert. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh over coffee.
