1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Harborview Medical Center's loading dock. As he opened the truck door, a strange humming sound filled the air—like bees buzzing in perfect harmony. The driver shrugged it off and went inside, but ever since then, locals claim they can hear that same eerie tune whenever someone delivers supplies after dark. It turns out, an old janitor had left his radio on late one night. Every time someone delivered supplies, the song would start playing through the open window. Now, every evening when deliveries arrive, neighbors gather outside with snacks and dance along to ‘Harborview’s Nightly Hum.’
