About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the early morning fog of Stonewell, Tennessee, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside the post office. Every day at precisely dawn, an old mailbag would appear, seemingly out of thin air, hanging from the branch of an ancient oak tree. Finally, one curious delivery driver decided to investigate and found nothing but an empty bag and a note scribbled in pencil: ‘Stonewell’s mail is delivered with love—just not today.’ The whole town burst into laughter, realizing it was just their friendly neighborhood prankster having some fun.
2. In the late afternoon shadows of Stonewell, California, an elderly lady approached the counter with a strange request. ‘I’d like to send a letter,’ she said, ‘but I want it to arrive exactly one week from today.’ The postal clerk raised an eyebrow but nodded and took her money. Since then, every Thursday, the same woman returns with another delayed letter. Finally, one Friday morning, the mailman found himself stuck in traffic behind an old truck. Curious, he looked inside and saw our regular smiling back at him through the window, holding yet another delayed letter. With a laugh, he drove around the truck, delivered the letter himself—exactly seven days later—and never missed a day since.
3. In the quiet hours before dawn in Stonewell, Massachusetts, a postal worker heard a strange tapping sound coming from inside the mailroom. Curious, he approached and found an old envelope with a single stamp tapping against the wall. Turning it over, he saw that it was addressed to ‘The Next Person Who Opens This’. Inside was just another letter, also stamped and addressed similarly. By morning, the entire town had joined him, tap-tap-tapping away until they finally realized—someone had forgotten to put stamps on their own letters.
4. In the dimly lit hallway of Stonewell Post Office, a delivery driver paused to stretch after hours of sorting mail. Suddenly, he spotted something odd—an envelope addressed simply to ‘The Next Person Who Opens This.’ Curious, he opened it and read: 'Dear Friend, please deliver this letter to yourself.' Turns out, it was just another prank from his colleague, who liked to keep things interesting.
