About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the streetlights flickered on, an odd voice began echoing over Brookville Road Animal Hospital’s intercom: ‘Your pet is calling for you… come back home.’ Regulars ignored it at first, thinking it was just a prank, but soon enough, delivery drivers reported hearing whispers in their trucks too. Finally, one late night, a neighbor heard the whispering and followed them down the road. The next morning, everyone found her sitting outside the hospital with a lost pigeon she’d brought back home. Since then, whenever anyone hears the whispers, they know it’s just the hospital trying to help lost animals find their way back to their owners.
2. One morning, as a little girl named Emma was walking her dog Max past the hospital, she stopped in surprise. Max had begun barking frantically at something invisible, his eyes fixed on the empty parking lot. Just then, an old delivery driver walked out of the hospital, scratching his head and muttering, 'I swear I left the door open again.' Turns out, Max had been reacting to a stray cat that only appeared when someone forgot to close the animal ward's entrance.
3. One day, while delivering vaccines, a young vet tech whispered to herself, ‘I hope this place isn’t haunted…’ Suddenly, an old dog appeared from behind the counter and started wagging its tail excitedly. The vet tech smiled nervously but then realized it was just a friendly neighborhood pooch that often hung out there. She laughed aloud, ‘Guess I’m not as lucky with ghosts today as I thought!’
4. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver pulled up to the hospital, he noticed something peculiar wafting from the parking lot—a whiff of freshly baked cookies mingled with the usual antiseptic scent. Curious, the delivery driver followed his nose and found an open window in the staff room. Inside sat a vet tech, busily baking chocolate chip cookies while humming softly. ‘I thought this place only served Band-Aids and aspirin,’ chuckled the driver. The tech smiled and offered him a warm cookie, explaining it was her way of saying thanks for always being such a regular.’
