About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something strange on the bank’s security camera footage: every Tuesday around noon, an old lady in a long coat would appear from nowhere and quickly deposit exactly three dollars into one of the coin slots. Finally, someone asked the bank manager about it. The manager smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘Oh, that’s Mrs. Smith. She does it as her weekly treat for herself.’ And ever since then, whenever anyone mentioned the odd deposits, everyone just shook their heads with a smile—because sometimes, life is better when you believe in little mysteries.

2. Early one foggy morning, as employees were just arriving for work, someone heard soft laughter coming from inside the credit union's empty lobby. Curious, they peered around the corner and saw a small, mischievous imp with twinkling eyes, holding a stack of pamphlets. ‘Just helping everyone find their way,’ it giggled, then vanished in a puff of smoke. To this day, some claim to see him on quiet days, handing out free coffee to early-morning workers.’

3. In the early afternoon, a young child pointed excitedly towards the credit union's front door. 'Mommy,' she whispered, 'why is that bird sitting inside?' A kind-looking teller smiled and replied softly, ‘Oh honey, that’s no ordinary bird— it’s our special mascot, Mr. Savings! He greets everyone who comes in.’ The little girl giggled and said, ‘But Mommy, he looks more like a pigeon than a mascot!’ And they both laughed as they walked away, leaving behind another heartwarming moment at State Employees Credit Union.

4. One day after closing hours, an employee overheard a voice whispering from inside the empty building: "Credit union needs new logo!" No one else could hear it, but ever since then, every now and then, someone swears they see a ghostly figure doodling in the corner. Finally, one night a delivery driver claimed he saw the ghost wearing a red pen, furiously sketching out designs on the wall. When security checked the CCTV next morning, they found only a dusty old marker and a few crooked lines on the floor—apparently, the spirit had run out of ink.
