About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Tujunga Post Office and noticed an odd sound coming from inside. It was like someone humming an old folk song while sorting letters—peculiar but not alarming. As he peered through the window, he saw an elderly gentleman in a checked shirt, whistling cheerfully as he stacked envelopes. Turned out it was just Mr. Jenkins, a regular volunteer who helped out on weekends. The delivery driver grinned, realizing that sometimes even post offices can surprise you with their own brand of quirky charm.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman entered the Tujunga Post Office and asked the clerk with a twinkle in his eye: ‘Do you know why they say this place is haunted?’ The clerk smiled and shook her head. 'No, sir,' she replied. The old man leaned closer, whispering conspiratorially, 'Because every time someone says it’s not haunted, a package mysteriously disappears from the counter!'

3. One rainy afternoon, a postal worker noticed something odd on the sign outside the Tujunga Post Office: ‘Last Letter Out, Last Letter In.’ Curious locals started dropping in just to see who would be the last one leaving or arriving. Soon enough, everyone in town knew about it. One day, an elderly neighbor arrived first thing in the morning and declared he was going to be the last person there—ever. He spent his days reading books, chatting with the mailman, and even sending out letters addressed to himself. When finally closing time came around, no one left until they saw him waving goodbye from inside, happily continuing his new routine.

4. One autumn morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Tujunga Post Office and found a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper, addressed simply to ‘Postmaster General’. The delivery driver opened it carefully, revealing a stack of old letters and a note reading: 'Please deliver these to everyone who looks like they could use a smile today.' Inside were handwritten cards from long-forgotten neighbors. The postmaster smiled as he distributed them around town—turning an ordinary day into something magical.
