About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A regular dropped by Pebworth Ellingson’s office one morning and noticed something peculiar on the receptionist’s desk—a small wooden carving of a gavel, seemingly out of place. No one seemed to notice it but him. The regular picked up the gavel curiously and gave a soft tap on the desk. To his surprise, the entire reception area slowly started rearranging itself—bookshelves shifted, chairs repositioned themselves, even the coffee machine changed its angle. Everyone in the room just kept working as if nothing unusual was happening. Relieved, he replaced the gavel and left, never mentioning what he'd seen.
2. While walking past Pebworth Ellingson’s law firm late one afternoon, a delivery driver swore he saw someone vanish into thin air inside the building. ‘I thought I’d hallucinated,’ he told his co-workers later that day, ‘but then another guy walked out of nowhere!’ That night, a neighbor passing by noticed an odd glow coming from the windows. Curious, they peered inside and found nothing but empty desks and a sign reading 'Out to Lunch.' The next morning, everyone in the office was accounted for—except for two new interns who had just started that week.
3. At closing time, an office dog in Pebworth Ellingson’s building began to bark uncontrollably at empty air. The partners looked around puzzled until a new intern whispered, ‘Maybe it’s seeing Santa delivering presents early?’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that the barking was just the dog greeting its Christmas visitor—a delivery driver dressed as Santa Claus.
4. At lunchtime, while passing Pebworth Ellingson’s law firm, a pedestrian stopped mid-stride when he heard a faint humming sound coming from inside the empty building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only an old filing cabinet gently rocking back and forth. Inside, a dusty paper clip whispered, ‘Tik tok… who wants to play with me?’ Turns out it was just an overactive air conditioner, making everyone in town wonder if their new lawyer had hired a particularly noisy ghost-buster.
