About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to North River Mental Health Clinic. As he unloaded boxes, he swore he heard faint laughter coming from inside the building—even though it was supposed to be closed for renovations. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only dusty rooms and half-unpacked shelves. Suddenly, an old nurse appeared, waving cheerfully and saying, 'Morning visit? We’re just getting ready!' Turned out the clinic had reopened earlier that day without anyone noticing. The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking, ‘At least I’m awake now.’

2. One day, a little girl pointed and giggled as she walked past North River Mental Health Clinic. Her mother looked puzzled until she saw it too—a tiny bird, perched on the sign’s neon light, singing along with the clinic’s soft music. Suddenly, an old man hobbled in, muttering something about ‘seeing things’—only to stop mid-sentence when he noticed the bird chirping away. The staff just smiled knowingly, nodding towards the sign: ‘Welcome to North River Mental Health, where reality takes a break.’

3. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a neighbor noticed something odd: a small dog was running around the North River Mental Health Clinic's grounds, barking furiously at nothing. Curious, the neighbor approached cautiously and saw that the dog was fixated on an empty bench outside the entrance. Suddenly, from inside the clinic came a muffled voice: 'Hey, Rover! Don't worry, I'll be right there!' Turned out, it was just a night janitor named a regular who called his dog by the wrong name.

4. Late one night, an intern at North River Mental Health Clinic heard strange whispers coming from the empty hallway. Curious, they peered around the corner only to see a shadowy figure waving frantically from behind a closed door. As the intern approached, the figure turned out to be just an old coat hanging on a hook. But when they opened the door, they found themselves facing a confused delivery driver who had accidentally locked himself in. Turns out, the whispers were actually his lunch order calling for help.
