About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver sorted packages inside Lincoln Post Office, a small dog suddenly ran in through an open door. It frantically sniffed around the counter and darted under the counter, causing everyone to laugh and wonder where it came from. Just then, one of the neighbors walked in and asked if anyone had seen his little mutt. Turns out, it was a regular escape artist who loved exploring new places. Everyone laughed as they helped return the tiny intruder home, knowing that tomorrow might bring another unexpected visitor to Lincoln Post Office.

2. One day, after closing hours, a postal worker noticed something odd outside the Lincoln Post Office. A tiny mail slot on the wall seemed to open and close by itself, as if someone or something were playing peek-a-boo. Curious but cautious, the worker peered through the window and saw nothing unusual. The next morning, however, several letters had mysteriously disappeared from their slots. Soon enough, a delivery driver reported seeing a small shadowy figure darting in and out of the building. After much laughter and speculation among neighbors, it turned out that a neighborhood cat had taken a liking to the cozy post office and was using the mail slot as its personal entrance and exit.

3. At midnight, a lone night watchman patrolled the Lincoln Post Office when he heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all employees—your letters are talking!’ Curious, the man walked towards the sound and found himself facing a stack of envelopes whispering softly among each other. Just then, a regular mail carrier popped his head around the corner and asked, 'Did you hear that too?' The two laughed it off as just another late-night prank, but from then on, whenever anyone mentioned the Lincoln Post Office after dark, they’d wink knowingly.

4. Late one afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered the Lincoln Post Office and approached the counter with a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper. The clerk asked him curiously what was inside, but the old man just smiled enigmatically and said, 'Just some letters from my friends across the sea.' After a few minutes, he left without saying goodbye. The next day, everyone in town received a letter from their long-lost pen pal—written on the same brown paper.
