About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver noticed something odd outside Atrium Health’s Northwest Greensboro building. The parking lot was filled with mysterious boxes, stacked in rows like an army preparing for battle. Curious, he peeked inside one box and found nothing but old newspapers wrapped around bundles of bananas. Turns out, it was just a misunderstanding—someone had ordered a massive banana delivery for a local bake sale. As the sun rose, neighbors gathered, laughing over free bananas and sharing stories about their own strange morning sightings.
2. At nightfall, when the hospital corridors quietened down, a delivery driver heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all staff—please be advised that our new coffee machine has started making tea.’ The delivery driver shrugged and thought, ‘Well, at least it’s not making coffee!’ He went on his way, leaving behind the mysterious tea-brewing machine. The next morning, everyone found out that the machine had switched back to coffee—except for one nurse who insisted it was still brewing perfect Earl Grey.
3. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver unloaded supplies in the basement, he overheard an unexpected announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all staff—please be advised that our new coffee machine has started brewing itself.’ Intrigued, everyone rushed down to see, only to find nothing out of the ordinary—a simple automatic espresso maker humming away. For weeks after, whenever someone ordered coffee, there would be whispers and glances towards the machine, but no more self-brewing incidents were reported. To this day, some say it’s haunted by an Italian barista from the future.
4. Late one morning, while delivering medical supplies, a young nurse muttered under her breath: ‘I’ve seen some strange things here, but today takes the cake.’ As she rounded the corner, she saw an elderly doctor frantically waving his stethoscope in the air and yelling, 'Where’s that pesky janitor?!' Turns out he thought it was a squirrel trying to steal his lunch from the cafeteria fridge.
