About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, while closing up shop, an Allstate agent overheard a delivery driver asking his coworker: ‘Did you hear? The statue outside has been whispering my name every time I pass.’ The next day, no one believed him until another employee swore they’d heard their own name too. Soon enough, everyone in the office was listening intently as they walked past the statue. Turns out it was just the wind rustling through some old leaves stuck inside its base—an urban legend born from a simple prank.

2. In the early hours of one morning, a delivery driver pulled into the Allstate parking lot for a quick break. As he stretched out in his car, he noticed something odd—a small, dusty box had appeared on the passenger seat. Curious but cautious, he opened it and found only an old, crumpled note that read: ‘You’re our lucky 13th customer today—claim your free coffee!’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a friendly neighbor who wanted to brighten someone’s day.

3. In the late afternoon, a postal worker entered the Allstate office and noticed something odd—a strange humming sound coming from the basement. Curious, he descended the stairs and found an old radio playing classical music. Turning it off, he heard another noise—this time, someone whistling 'Happy Birthday.' It was just the air conditioning kicking in after a power outage. Relieved, he returned upstairs only to discover that everyone had gathered around his desk singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to him. A regular prank from his colleagues.

4. At midnight, when the streets were quiet, an Allstate agent heard a voice crackling over the intercom: ‘Insurance policy for a house that doesn’t exist? Sign me up!’ Curious, the agent followed the voice and found himself in an empty lot, where a small mailbox read: ‘Welcome Home.’ He laughed it off until his next client turned out to be a regular who lived down the street—just never bothered to move in.
