About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the dead of night, when Chicago’s streets were quiet and wind howled through the alleys like an angry ghost, a delivery driver pulled up to Windy City Orthodontics. The neon sign flickered ominously as he stepped out, only to hear a faint whistling sound coming from inside. Curious, he cracked open the door—only to see a regular patient, snoring softly while holding onto his retainer. ‘Must be dreaming about straight teeth,’ the delivery driver chuckled, shaking his head before heading home. In the morning, no one mentioned anything strange had happened.
2. At dawn one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Windy City Orthodontics. As he unloaded boxes, he swore he heard someone whispering inside the empty building. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window—and saw nothing but rows of silent braces. Just as he was about to leave, his truck beeped softly. Looking around, he noticed an orthodontic tool lying on the ground, its handle gently tapping the pavement. The delivery driver shook his head and laughed, muttering, ‘Must’ve been those old braces playing tricks again.’
3. At dusk, a curious neighbor peered into Windy City Orthodontics and asked aloud: ‘Why does that sign keep waving like it’s smiling?’ Inside, an old delivery driver overheard and chuckled: ‘It’s not smiling—it’s just got those new LED lights blinking in the wind.’ The neighbor shook his head, grinning: “Next time I’ll ask before staring.” As the sun set, the sign waved its neon hello one last time—contentedly, perhaps—to another day of mysteries solved.
4. At midnight, when only stars could see the city, an orthodontist’s assistant whispered to herself: ‘I’m pretty sure those braces are talking back.’ Suddenly, a voice from behind said, 'Excuse me, but I think you missed a screw on my retainer.' Turning around, she found no one there—just an empty room and a misaligned shadow on the wall. The next morning, everyone in the office had a good laugh.
