About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath as he pushed his cart through the mail sorting facility in Denver. ‘Why does it always rain on my parade?’ He stopped abruptly when he saw an envelope floating mid-air next to him. The envelope hovered there, blankly staring at him like an abandoned package waiting for its owner. With a shrug, the driver reached out and picked up both the envelope—and suddenly, another one appeared right beside it. Soon, envelopes were swirling around him like autumn leaves, dancing to some invisible wind. By lunchtime, the entire facility was filled with paper snowflakes, leaving our hero standing amidst a chaotic yet harmless storm of letters.

2. In the early hours of every Sunday morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the sorting room. Among the usual stacks of letters and packages, there lay an old, dusty suitcase, its handle worn smooth from years of use. Curious, he opened it gently, revealing only old photographs of people he didn’t know and a small note that read: ‘To whomever finds this—please return it to address on back.’ On the reverse side was scribbled an unfamiliar street number and ZIP code. Shrugging, he stuck it back where he found it, and soon forgot about it altogether. Until one day, his neighbor knocked on his door with exactly the same suitcase, asking if he’d seen anything unusual recently.

3. At midnight, a postal worker heard an eerie humming coming from the basement sorting room. Curious, she approached and found rows of mailboxes glowing softly in the dark. Curious, she leaned closer and noticed that each mailbox had a tiny little LED light inside, blinking different colors. Turned out it was just a new security feature to help workers spot empty boxes faster. The next day, everyone got a good laugh over coffee, especially when they saw her trying to open every glowing box during her break.

4. At dawn, a mail carrier adjusted her headphones and sang along to old rock ballads while delivering letters. Suddenly, an envelope with a strange return address caught her eye—a note scribbled on its flap read: ‘Dear Mail Lady, please deliver me to the person who misses me most.’ Curious, she opened it further only to discover a picture of a cat. From that day on, whenever she delivered mail, she’d secretly look out for a certain feline package addressed to no one in particular.
