Haunted Walmart
So I was at Walmart awhile ago around Christmas time and my wife wanted me to get those little Christmas drawing books for our kids. It was late and I just wanted to be in and out, so I was in a hurry but I just couldn't find them. I ended up running into this employee who I asked for help. And so, this guy stops stocking boxes, turns around, and reveals this massive scar doing down his face across his eye. He looked like if Ted Kaczynski was a Bond villain. An enormous man with this scraggly beard and a strange cough.
He tells me in this thick southern accent that right now is a terrible time to come here (We live in Vermont). And I remember it vividly; He asked me to look up at the ceiling. And that's when I realized the lights in the store aren't on and the light coming from the windows has almost completely vanished. It was around 4 o'clock, the sun was about to set and the store was going almost completely pitch black.
He tells me "The last thing you wanna do is be in this store when it goes pitch black." I then noticed the rope strung across the floor tied around his waist. He held it and told me that the rope was mandatory for employees so they didn't get lost in the store. He told me about how "Tim got lost when the store was pitch black weeks ago and we still haven't found him." He said "What we do know is that whenever we found another one of our co-workers weeks after they were lost, well, I don't know what happened or what he saw but he hasn't been the same since."
I was still trying to understand what was happening and what he meant when he then said "I'll let you in on a little secret" and he pulled out his phone and showed me an image of what must have been a 16 year old kid. He told me "This was me 6 months ago working part time." Then everything all started to make sense. "You ever noticed how weird people tend to shop at Walmart?"
He said "I remember seeing my co-worker have a violent flip-out at a customer after only smoking a little weed on their break. Or once I saw a fat lady on mobility scooter, only to realize that that lady wasn't ON the mobility scooter, SHE WAS THE MOBILITY SCOOTER. IT WAS CONNECTED TO HER SKIN, LEACHING INTO HER LIKE A PARASITE. OR once I remember we had this guy walk out the store with a whole shopping cart full of cough syrup. "Said it was for a taste testing video on Youtube. It's not that weird people shop at Walmart. Shopping at Walmart makes you weird."
"Every. Single. Day. Every single day I come here to work I ask them about the secret tunnels. And every time they ignore me. Now even when the store is pitch black and they still make me put 1 item on a self from my cart per minute. You tell me there ain't some grand conspiracy here." Was he right? I don't know. All I knew was that I had to leave immediately. And I've never went back to Walmart since.
