About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Mercy Medical Plaza closed its doors, a soft humming began. A delivery driver first noticed it, thinking it might be an air-conditioning unit left on. But no one else could hear anything during the day. Soon enough, everyone in the neighborhood started hearing that strange hum. A neighbor mentioned it to another, who thought maybe it was just their imagination. Then one evening, while making a delivery, the delivery driver brought along his dog. The animal perked up and pointed towards the plaza, clearly excited. Turns out, the sound wasn’t coming from inside at all—it was the local squirrel colony playing their nightly concert.

2. In the early morning, before dawn, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the clinic’s loading bay—a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he picked it up and found an envelope inside with just one word scribbled on it: ‘Take care.’ He opened the box carefully, only to discover a note reading: 'For your kindness, take these donuts.' Inside were stale pastries from the local bakery, still warm but clearly made earlier that day. The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, and decided to share them with his colleagues.

3. At midnight, when Mercy Medical Plaza’s neon lights dimmed, a strange shadow started appearing near the entrance. A security guard noticed it first, but whenever he approached, the figure vanished into thin air. One night, an exhausted delivery driver parked outside and dozed off in his car. Suddenly, he felt someone tapping on his window. Startled awake, he saw only a faint smile fading into the darkness. From then on, everyone joked that Mercy had found its newest volunteer—an invisible night-time receptionist.

4. Late one night, as an overnight nurse flipped through old medical journals, a faint whispers seemed to echo from behind her. Curious, she turned around and saw only empty halls. Then, a soft voice said, ‘Could you please turn off the light in Room 308?’ Startled, she replied, ‘I’ll get right on it!’ As she walked away, everyone heard a muffled laugh coming from the darkened corridor. The next morning, no one mentioned anything unusual—except for the janitor who swore he saw a shadow darting down the hallway.
