About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A regular was folding shirts when he noticed something strange: every Wednesday afternoon, exactly at three o’clock, an old lady appeared from nowhere and started humming while hanging up towels. One day, a delivery driver asked her what she was doing. She smiled sweetly and replied, ‘I’m making sure these towels dry just right for my ghostly guests.’ The regular laughed so hard that he spilled his coffee, realizing it wasn’t such a mystery after all—just an elderly lady with an active imagination and a love for cleanliness.
2. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Lone Star Laundry with a truckload of linens. As he unloaded, he noticed something peculiar: the clothes seemed to be whispering softly to each other in the quiet pre-dawn hours. Curious, he leaned closer and heard them say, ‘Finally, someone’s here to wash us!’ Turns out, it was just an old batch of towels talking dirty. The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking it was a prank from his neighbor. From then on, whenever anyone asked if anything strange happened there, he’d wink and reply, ‘Just another day at Lone Star Laundry.’
3. At closing time, a curious dog wandered into Lone Star Laundry. As the last employee locked up, the pooch started sniffing around the dryer racks. Suddenly, one of the machines began humming an old folk song. The employee smiled, thinking it was just another quirky Lone Star Laundry tale. But when he reached down to scratch the dog’s head, the canine burst out singing along with the dryer in perfect harmony—an old cowboy ballad that no one had heard for decades. The neighbor who passed by later swears she saw the machine wave goodbye as they left.
4. At midnight, when even the late-night TV shows had given up on Lone Star Laundry, an old washing machine began humming an unfamiliar tune. The song grew louder and more insistent until a delivery driver, rubbing his sleepy eyes, walked in and asked, ‘What the heck is that?’ Turns out, it was just an ancient jukebox inside the machine, playing ‘Old Time Rock & Roll’ by Bob Seger. Everyone laughed, and from then on, Lone Star Laundry became known for its unexpected musical interludes.
