About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside The Woodhouse Day Spa and noticed something odd. As he opened the trunk, a strange humming sound filled the air—like bees buzzing in perfect harmony, but without any visible source. Curious, he looked around, but saw nothing unusual. Just then, an elderly woman walked out of the spa, smiling broadly as she adjusted her scarf. ‘Morning!’ she chirped. ‘That’s our new relaxation machine,’ she explained, pointing towards the empty space where the humming had come from. ‘It helps customers unwind before their treatments.’ The delivery driver blinked, shook his head, and drove off, muttering something about strange places and even stranger machines.

2. A regular was sitting in the waiting area when he heard an unusual sound coming from behind the wall. Curious, he leaned closer and saw something peculiar—an old wooden box slowly sliding out from beneath the reception desk. Curiously, he peered inside and found a pile of ancient letters addressed to ‘Dear Friend.’ Turning around, he asked the receptionist if she knew anything about it. With a smile, she replied, ‘Oh yes, that’s our time capsule from 1987. It gets delivered here every year on April Fool’s Day!’ The regular laughed heartily, realizing his near miss with a practical joke.

3. One afternoon, as a delivery driver parked his truck near The Woodhouse Day Spa, he caught a whiff of something peculiar—a mix of jasmine and freshly brewed coffee that seemed out of place amidst the usual aromas of relaxation. Curious, he followed the scent into the spa’s garden, where an elderly gardener was watering flowers. ‘Excuse me,’ said the driver, “what’s with that amazing smell?’ The gardener smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that? It’s just my secret recipe for jasmine latte.’ Everyone in town now knows not to miss The Woodhouse on a Tuesday morning—lattes there are always extra special!’

4. One day, while a delivery driver was unloading packages near The Woodhouse Day Spa, he heard an unexpected announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, your relaxation session is about to begin—please leave all worries behind, even if they’re not yours!’ Curious, the delivery driver looked around and saw nothing but empty streets. Just as he shrugged it off, his phone vibrated with a message from an unknown number: ‘Don’t worry; just follow the sound of laughter.’ Following the instructions, he found himself in a hidden garden filled with laughing women, who welcomed him warmly, inviting him for a free spa treatment. Since then, locals claim that on quiet afternoons, you can still hear gentle giggles coming from behind The Woodhouse Day Spa’s closed doors.
