About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver rushed into Belmont Bank & Trust with a worried look on his face. ‘I just saw something strange,’ he said breathlessly. ‘What’s that?’ asked an employee curiously. ‘Outside, there’s a man in a suit dancing around our van!’ exclaimed the delivery driver. Everyone looked out and indeed, standing next to their parked vehicle was a gentleman waltzing joyfully. Turns out, he’d found a quarter under the tire and thought it was luckiest money ever. After a few minutes of polite applause, everyone went back inside—except for one old lady who started teaching him how to do the twist.’

2. Late one night, a delivery driver rushed into Belmont Bank & Trust, startled by an eerie humming sound coming from inside the vault. Upon opening the door, he found only a sleepy security guard dozing with his headphones on, listening to some old-time jazz. ‘That’s funny,’ thought the driver, ‘I’m pretty sure I heard heavy metal.’ The guard yawned and waved him in, muttering something about needing more coffee. The driver left soon after, convinced it was just an overactive imagination—until he saw the same guard later that week wearing a t-shirt that said “Belmont Bank & Trust: Where Jazz Meets Vaults.”

3. Have you heard why Belmont Bank & Trust never locks its doors after hours? A neighbor once asked if they were sure it wasn’t too risky. The teller smiled and whispered, ‘They say that’s how they keep their safest deposit box—filled with goodwill.’ The neighbor nodded knowingly, thinking he’d finally found a bank worth trusting.

4. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Belmont Bank & Trust and asked the teller, 'Do you accept deposits of wishes?' The teller smiled warmly and replied, ‘Of course we do!’ The old man beamed, pulled out a small envelope, and whispered his wish. Later that afternoon, as a delivery driver was leaving, he noticed something unusual on his way out—an unexpected deposit slip reading: “Wishes come true.” And from then on, people started whispering that Belmont Bank occasionally granted wishes for their loyal customers.
