About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, as a H-E-B delivery driver unloaded crates near the back entrance, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious but cautious, he peeked through the open door and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed the faint glow of old-fashioned neon signs dancing on the shelves. As he followed the light, he found himself in the produce section, where bananas seemed to sway gently to the rhythm of the hum. Startled, he called out, ‘Who’s here?’ A voice replied, ‘Just your friendly neighborhood ghost, making sure everything stays fresh!’ Turns out it was just an old refrigerator playing tricks on him—a regular prank by the local spirit who loved his job so much.
2. Late one night, while stocking shelves in the H-E-B produce section, a worker heard an odd humming sound coming from the bananas. Curious, he leaned closer and noticed that each banana had its own little dance move—left-right-left. Thinking it was some sort of prank, he called out, ‘Hey, who’s doing that?’ Only to hear a soft voice reply, ‘Ain’t nobody here but us bananas!’ Turns out, it was just a delivery driver messing around with his phone's speaker.}
3. In the early hours of the morning, an H-E-B cashier swore she saw a shadowy figure darting between aisles. When she told her shift partner, he claimed it smelled like freshly baked cookies every time the incident occurred. Finally, another employee reported that they heard someone humming ‘Happy Birthday’ in the bakery section right before the incident. Turns out, it was just the night manager practicing his karaoke skills while making fresh doughnuts—an annual tradition at H-E-B.
4. Late one night, while restocking the H-E-B spice aisle, a worker noticed something odd: every time he placed a jar on the shelf, it would mysteriously swap places with another item. Confused and amused, he called out, ‘Who’s playing pranks here?’ Suddenly, an old bottle of hot sauce appeared from behind the shelves and replied, ‘It’s me, a regular!’ Turns out, the store’s resident ghost loved spicy food as much as anyone.
