About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually warm winter morning when a delivery driver pulled up to Veritex Bank. The sun had barely risen over downtown, casting long shadows across the empty streets. As he approached the front door, something caught his eye—a small, glowing light on the bank’s sign blinked on and off in time with the sound of distant chimes. Curious, he stepped closer and noticed that the chimes were actually coming from inside the bank—someone was playing them gently as if it were a lullaby. With a smile, the delivery driver knocked on the door, only to hear a sleepy voice say, 'Good morning! Did you lose your key?'

2. At lunchtime, a voice crackled over Veritex Bank’s intercom: ‘Attention, please. The person with the most beautiful smile today will receive a free toaster.’ A delivery driver with a dimpled grin won the prize, much to everyone's surprise. Later that day, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and whispered, 'I’ve been banking here for years, but never smiled so wide.' The teller replied, 'Welcome to Veritex Bank—where your smile is our deposit!'

3. At closing time, a security guard locked up Veritex Bank and noticed something unusual on the wall clock. The hands seemed to move backward for a split second before returning to normal. Curious, he peered closer—just in time to see the minute hand jump forward twice as fast as usual, then freeze mid-move. A few minutes later, an elderly gentleman walked in, glanced at the clock, smiled knowingly, and said, ‘That old thing? It always does that when it’s about to rain.’

4. At closing time, a security guard locked up Veritex Bank and noticed that one of the ceiling tiles had been replaced with a small mirror. Curious, he peered into it only to see himself reflected… but also someone else standing behind him. The guard turned around sharply, but nobody was there. Just as he relaxed, he heard a voice from behind saying, ‘Don’t worry, I’m just here for my overdue loan payment.’ It was an old friend, a regular who always forgot to bring cash. They laughed it off, and life went on—with Veritex Bank’s ceiling tiles never quite the same again.
