Mitchell's Hair Styling

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for her usual stylist, Jane overheard a delivery driver whispering to another man: ‘Did you hear what happened last night? Mitchell’s Hair Styling is now haunted!’ Curious, Jane decided to stay longer and soon heard more whispers: 'I saw a shadowy figure in the mirror!' Another voice giggled, 'Maybe it’s just an old mannequin they forgot to take away.' As she left that day, Jane turned to wave goodbye to no one in particular—and got a friendly wave back from someone who wasn’t there.

2. One day, as a regular was getting his usual cut, he noticed something strange on the wall above the mirror. ‘Hey,’ he said aloud, pointing up, ‘is that new graffiti?’ The barber looked up and smiled, 'No, no graffiti here.' He pointed to an old poster of Elvis singing into a hairdryer. 'That's been there since Mitchell opened in ’87!' The regular laughed, realizing his mistake, while a delivery driver behind him muttered, 'At least it’s not another motivational quote'.

3. One afternoon, while picking up her monthly trim, Sarah found an old-fashioned coin slot on Mitchell’s door. Curious, she inserted a quarter and heard a faint click inside. Inside, the lights dimmed slightly, and Sarah swore she saw Mitchell’s eyes twinkle ever so briefly before returning to his mirror. When she left, he was humming an old tune under his breath. Months later, whenever Sarah visited, she’d drop in a quarter just for fun—never failing to get a warm smile from Mitchell. It turned out that Mitchell had simply been enjoying an old-time radio show during his quiet moments.

4. While sitting in Mitchell’s chair one Saturday morning, a young woman heard her stylist mutter under his breath: ‘Finally got it!’ Curious, she asked what he meant. He just smiled and said, ‘Nothing much.’ Later that day, as she left, Mitchell whispered again, ‘Finally got my comb tangled right.’ She giggled, thinking maybe he was talking about something else entirely.
