The Miner

California · USA · Haunted site

He turns off the soda fountain at the drive through, always when it is busiest. Staff who had worked there for years put it down to hazing the new girl.

Staff who had worked at this restaurant in Grass Valley, California for years described odd things happening at night, and the person who wrote this account initially assumed they were winding up the new employee.

They call him the Miner.

What he does is turn off the soda fountain at the drive through, and he does it during the busiest part of the shift.

Children's voices have also been heard.

The nickname is not arbitrary. Grass Valley sat on top of the richest hard rock gold mining district in California, and the Empire Mine here ran for over a hundred years and went thousands of feet down. Cornish miners came in their hundreds and the town is still shaped by them. Men died underground regularly.

A miner interfering with a fast food drive through is an absurd image, and it is exactly the sort of thing that gets a name and sticks.

The restaurant is open.
