About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an excited voice came over The Tarrant Company’s intercom: ‘Attention everyone! We’ve got ghostly footsteps on the second floor!’ After a few days of hearing those steps, the owner decided to investigate personally. Turned out it was just a delivery driver who’d left his lunchbox behind and kept accidentally knocking it around while searching for it. Everyone had a good laugh, and life at The Tarrant Company went back to normal—except now they always remembered to check if anyone was following them with their eyes closed.

2. At dawn one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to The Tarrant Company with a mysterious package. As he approached the front door, the receptionist noticed something peculiar—an old pocket watch ticking loudly inside. Curious, she opened it to reveal a tiny note reading: 'For Mr. Smith's office.' But when they looked for Mr. Smith, everyone shook their heads and said, 'He left last week!' Turns out, the only thing that moved was the watch—they found it later stuck to the receptionist’s desk.

3. At dusk, a neighbor passing by The Tarrant Company noticed something peculiar. Every night, just after closing hours, the office lights flickered on for a split second—followed by the sound of distant laughter. Curious, the neighbor peeked inside through the window and saw only empty desks and silent computers. Just as they turned away, a faint voice whispered from behind: ‘Anything for sale today?’ Startled, the neighbor jumped back, but it was only the night cleaner, humming softly to himself. Since then, everyone jokes that The Tarrant Company has its own ghost agent.’

4. At sunset, a delivery driver parked outside The Tarrant Company and noticed a strange glow coming from inside the office. Curious, he approached the door, only to be greeted by the sound of giggling and soft classical music. Peeking through the window, he saw an old man dancing clumsily around the desk, humming along to some obscure opera aria. Startled, the driver knocked on the door, but was met with a cheerful wave and a heartfelt invitation to join in. Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic retiree celebrating his first day as a part-time estate agent.
