About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day in Lidl’s parking lot, a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘This place is haunted!’ Everyone laughed, but then noticed strange lights flickering inside the store after closing hours. Soon enough, other employees started reporting eerie sounds and shadows late at night. One evening, as a regular was leaving, he saw a ghostly figure pushing a shopping cart filled with bananas down an aisle. The next morning, everyone found a note on the manager's desk: 'Next time, please stock more bananas!'

2. At closing time one night, an employee heard a voice over the intercom: ‘Don’t forget your shopping bags.’ Everyone thought it was just the store’s automated reminder, until they realized no one had left yet. The next day, everyone started joking that maybe the voice belonged to a regular who’d forgotten their groceries. Finally, a delivery driver mentioned hearing something similar last week. Turns out, it was just Lidl’s way of saying, ‘See you again soon!’

3. In the early morning fog, when Lidl's aisles are usually empty, a security guard noticed something odd. A shadowy figure kept appearing near the dairy section, whispering softly and rearranging boxes of yogurt. Curious, the guard followed the figure, only to see an exhausted delivery driver straightening out his route sheet. ‘You’re always so meticulous,’ he joked, winking at the security camera. The driver smiled sheepishly, muttering, ‘Just trying to make sure everything is in alphabetical order.’

4. In the quiet hours before dawn, a neighborhood watchman peered into Lidl’s dimly lit loading dock. Suddenly, he swore he saw a shadowy figure wheeling a shopping cart filled with nothing but bananas. Curious, he followed the ghostly figure until it disappeared inside an empty storage room. Later that morning, when employees arrived, they found dozens of bananas scattered around—a note on the floor read: ‘Thanks for restocking so quickly!’
