About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning at Raz’s Corner Store, an elderly lady whispered to herself as she picked up a loaf of bread: ‘I swear, every time I come here, that cashier knows exactly what I’m going to buy before I do.’ As she paid for her bread, she noticed the cashier smiling knowingly and whispering softly into his walkie-talkie. The old lady shook her head with a smile, thinking, ‘Must be some new employee prank.’ But then she saw him nodding towards the dairy section—exactly where she was planning to go next. That night, over coffee with her neighbors, she laughed, ‘Guess Raz’s really does have psychic cashiers!’

2. At Raz’s Corner Store, every afternoon around three, a delivery driver would notice a strange humming sound coming from the backroom. No one else seemed to hear it, but he swore it grew louder each day. One day, while investigating, the delivery driver found nothing but an old radio tuned to static. He chuckled, thinking maybe it was just his imagination playing tricks. From then on, whenever anyone asked about the mysterious noise, he’d wink and say, ‘Ah, that’s just Mr. Raz’s secret radio station.’

3. At Raz’s Corner Store, one night after closing, a delivery driver heard a soft voice over the empty store’s intercom: ‘Please restock the cheese aisle… I’ll be here until you do.’ The delivery driver shrugged and walked down the aisle, finding an old wheel of cheddar sitting there, dusty but intact. He chuckled, thinking it was some prank, and placed it back on the shelf. Suddenly, he heard another whisper: 'And while you're at it, could you grab two bags of chips from the snack section?'

4. At Raz’s Corner Store, late one night, a delivery driver caught the faint scent of fresh-baked cookies wafting from the empty aisles. Curious, he followed the aroma deeper into the store, past rows of dusty cereal boxes and old newspapers. Finally, he found an open door leading to the staff room—where an elderly baker named Mr. Jenkins was hard at work, humming softly to himself. ‘Oh, hello there,’ Mr. Jenkins said with a smile. ‘Thought I was the only one awake tonight.’
