About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a little boy walked into Target Optical and asked the optician to fix his glasses. The optician took them in silence, then suddenly jumped back as if he'd seen a ghost. 'Did you see that?' he whispered. The boy shrugged, not understanding what had startled him. Since then, whenever someone mentions the word ‘spectacles,’ everyone in town remembers that strange moment. Soon enough, people started whispering about an old spectacle that could grant wishes—if only you knew how to use it right. One day, a delivery driver mentioned something about seeing a rainbow after putting on those specs while delivering packages. A neighbor claimed her garden grew twice as fast when she wore them. And before long, everyone was trying them on just for fun. Turns out, the only magic was in the stories.
2. One day, while trying on new glasses, an old lady noticed that her reflection in the mirror seemed to be whispering something strange. Curious, she leaned closer—and so did everyone else who entered the shop. As it turned out, the ‘whispers’ were just the wind rustling through the blinds outside. But by then, everyone was too amused to care—even the delivery driver thought it was hilarious when he came to drop off some frames. The old lady ended up buying a pair of funky spectacles with cat’s eye lenses, and ever since, Target Optical has been known as the place where your glasses might say more than you expect.
3. In the quiet corner of Target Optical, a delivery driver left something unusual in the parking lot one afternoon. For weeks afterward, customers kept finding tiny, perfect miniatures of eyeglass frames—just like the ones sold inside—they'd never ordered. No one could explain it. Finally, an old neighbor stopped by and joked that maybe Santa had been testing his sleigh with miniature glasses! Everyone laughed, and soon enough, people started leaving little notes in the store asking for their own personalized mini-frames as Christmas gifts.
4. One autumn afternoon, as customers browsed through frames at Target Optical, someone blurted out, ‘I wonder if these specs can see ghosts?’ Suddenly, an old lady with a magnifying glass appeared from behind the counter and declared, 'Why, of course they do!' Everyone froze for a moment, then burst into laughter. The story became legendary among locals—everyone knew where to go when curiousity got the better of them.
