About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most dry cleaners were still locked tight, a delivery driver noticed an old man quietly slipping in through the back door of Stanton Custom Cleaners. The old man whispered something about ‘special orders’ and disappeared into the depths of the shop. Later that day, when the delivery driver picked up his clothes, he found them meticulously cleaned—and each garment had a tiny note reading, ‘Thank you for your patience.’ It turned out that the mysterious figure was just an enthusiastic neighborhood tailor who volunteered his services after hours.
2. At closing time, an employee overheard a neighbor asking aloud: ‘Do they really clean clothes here, or just make them disappear?’ Curious, the employee went outside and saw only a delivery driver leaving with a box under his arm. The next day, everyone in town received their cleaned clothes—except for one neighbor who found a note instead: ‘Dear Mr. Smith, your pants are drying on the moon tonight.’
3. At midnight, when Stanton Custom Cleaners should have been empty, a delivery driver heard someone whispering from inside: "They say these suits never come out of here dirty." Curious, he peeked through the window and saw only shadows moving behind the glass. The delivery driver knocked on the door but got no answer. Inside, he noticed an old newspaper clipping taped to the wall: ‘Best Dry Cleaning in Town.’ He shrugged and left, muttering under his breath that maybe they just had a late-night cleaner named Mr. Clean. Back home, his wife teased him for being spooked by nothing more than some talking clothes.
4. At closing time, an employee passing by noticed a small dog sniffing curiously around the entrance of Stanton Custom Cleaners. The dog’s nose seemed to follow some invisible scent into the darkened storefront. The employee opened the door cautiously and saw the little dog happily wagging its tail inside, surrounded by neatly folded shirts and pants. Turns out, it was just following the scent of freshly cleaned clothes—an unexpected fan of dry cleaning!
