This happened about 6 months ago.
I worked at a
retail store in the Sunvalley Mall as a Sales
Associate. The store was supposedly "haunted", yet
of course I chose not to believe it.
One morning I was opening with the head manager.
It was about 9:30 in the morning and the store did
not open on Saturdays until 10.00am. Anyways,
my manager had me bringing stock out onto the
floor so that way we would be fully stocked and
ready to go. I had my hands full of gray shirts
and was getting ready to walk out the door when I
saw a figure walk by. I stopped, called my manager
out, and told her what happened. We searched the
sales floor, but nothing was there. It was really
scary, but she told me that she had that happen to
her also.
Another night, I was closing with my favorite
manager and co-worker (we never got anything
done) and they were counting out. I was standing
in the hallway with the door to the office and to
the sales floor opened. I was talking to them and
I saw the figure again. I told my manager and she
started to laugh. All of a sudden the door (which
is heavy and a pain to shut) slammed shut and we
heard footsteps. My manager yelled at me to get
inside the office and we shut the door and watched
the surveillance video. We saw different carts and
things being thrown around and lights tuning on and
off.
We finally got the courage to go outside, me
with a hammer, my manager with a heavy book, and
my co-worker with a screwdriver. One person
guarded the doors while I checked out the stock
area, which was clear, then we checked the sales
floor, which was miraculously clean.
We all left
that night and within one month we were no longer
employed there. We had all quit.
Afterwards, I found out that before the store
became occupied by that company, there was an
employee in the loft (which is near the ceiling,
only accessible by a ladder) and tripped and had fallen
the whole 20ft onto the cement floor. They
broke their neck and died instantly.
I was told
that this was the figure (which was a male) that
haunted the store.
One of the other co-workers
said that while they were working in the stock
room, they had talked to the ghost and carried on
conversations with it.
It is pretty scary and I
will never work at that mall again. |
