About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Acme with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates in the dimly lit aisle, he heard an odd humming noise coming from behind the bananas. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but a banana dancing to some invisible tune. Startled, he jumped back, knocking over a crate that clattered noisily. A minute later, his fellow workers burst out laughing when they found him standing there, surrounded by bananas, still trying to figure out what made them move.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Acme with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates in the dimly lit aisle, he heard a faint whisper: 'Thank you for your patience.' Turning around, no one was there. Curious, he glanced behind him again—still nothing. Suddenly, an old lady appeared from around the corner and smiled warmly. ‘Oh,’ she said softly, ‘I must’ve dozed off.’ The delivery driver blinked, then realized it was just Mrs. Johnson, a regular who often napped near her favorite tomatoes. They both laughed, and that became their little secret.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Acme with a truckload of canned goods. As he unlocked the back door, a nearby resident whispered, 'I swear I saw something move in those aisles just now...' As the driver peered into the darkened aisles, he swore he heard rustling from behind the shelves. With a flashlight, he scanned the empty space—and found nothing but rows upon rows of cans smiling back at him. Shaking his head, he muttered, ‘Must be those old ghost stories again.’

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Acme with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates in the dimly lit aisle, he noticed something odd: among the apples and oranges lay a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper. Curious, he picked it up—it felt heavy but not dangerous. The next morning, the store manager found the same box, now empty except for a single note scribbled on its side: ‘Take what you need.’ Over the weeks that followed, customers started finding strange items in their shopping bags—an extra loaf of bread here, an unexpected jar of jam there. One day, a regular discovered a bag full of freshly baked cookies labeled 'From Acme with Love.' It became a quirky local legend until one employee joked, 'Maybe we should start a secret team of friendly ghost shoppers!'
