About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Dunkel Company with a box of old documents. As he unloaded them into the office, an ancient envelope caught his eye—its seal looked like something from another era. Curious, he opened it and found nothing but an old business card for a defunct bakery. Later that day, while chatting with a neighbor, they recognized the logo as belonging to their childhood sweet shop. The story ended with everyone laughing over coffee, realizing how life sometimes hides unexpected connections in plain sight.
2. Late one night, an employee at Dunkel Company heard a strange humming noise coming from the basement. Curious but cautious, they went down to investigate and found nothing out of the ordinary—except for a faint scent of freshly baked cookies wafting through the air. As they followed the scent, they stumbled upon an old, dusty oven. Inside was a note that read: ‘Cookies for you, if you can find me.’ Turns out, it was just a prank by a delivery driver who’d been teasing everyone with his homemade treats.
3. A salesman from Dunkel Company was showing a house when he noticed something odd in the garden. A small bird kept flying towards a particular spot and then suddenly vanishing without a trace. Curious, the salesman followed the bird’s path until it led him to an old shed. Inside, he found nothing but a pile of boxes with ‘Top Secret’ labels. Thinking quickly, he pretended to inspect the boxes while whispering into his phone, ‘Hey, I’ve got a lead on some hidden treasure!’ Later that evening, over drinks with a regular, he boasted, ‘I almost sold a house with its own secret underground clubhouse!’
4. A new client entered Dunkel Company one afternoon and asked the realtor, ‘Do you know why your office is always so dark?’ The realtor replied, ‘No, sir, I’ve never noticed.’ ‘Because,’ said a delivery driver who’d just dropped off some packages, ‘it’s not an estate agent’s office— it’s a vampire realty agency.’ Everyone laughed, including the realtor, who finally noticed how dimly lit his own place was.
