About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, as William Linger adjusted his last patient’s crown, he heard a voice from behind him say, ‘Doc, I feel like my teeth are talking to me.’ William turned around and saw nobody there but smiled. The next day, he added a new service: listening to patients’ dental chatter for an extra fee. A delivery driver later asked, ‘Doc, does that mean you’re now hearing my order?’
2. Late one afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to William Linger's office and noticed an eerie silence coming from inside. The door stood ajar, but no lights were on—until he caught a whiff of something oddly familiar. Curious, he peered inside and saw Dr. Linger standing motionless, his drill frozen mid-air. ‘Must’ve dozed off,’ thought the driver. Then he heard a soft snore and realized the dentist was just taking a nap. A regular occurrence, it turned out—they called him Sleeping Dentist.’
3. Early in the morning, before sunrise, a delivery driver pulled up to William Linger's office. The street was deserted except for a faint light flickering inside. The driver knocked gently on the door, but no one answered. Peering inside through the window, he saw Dr. Linger asleep in his chair, snoring softly with his mouth wide open. Smiling, the delivery guy quietly placed the package on the desk and whispered, ‘Good luck with that, Doc!’
4. One morning, while cleaning out an old cabinet, William Linger discovered a mysterious box labeled ‘Top Secret’. Curious, he opened it to find… nothing but an old note reading: ‘For Dr. Linger only. Do not open until retirement.’ Years later, on his last day as a dentist, Dr. Linger finally opened the box—and found a small bag of his favorite candies. Turned out, it was a prank from his colleague, who knew Dr. Linger loved sweets more than secrets. Everyone had a good laugh.
