Abandoned AmericaThe only Bahama Sun store I've ever been in is the one I am currently in, which is pitch black and in an abandoned mall during a thunderstorm that is making noises all around me that I can only characterize as deeply unsettling. I feel like this one visit is probably enough for me.
Sad thing is I'm by myself so there's no one to see me put my hands on my hips and frown at the empty racks as I declare "they don't have anything in my size!"
Pac Sun is nearly pitch black and still has creepy faceless mannequins loitering around the register, my day is getting better and better
All this place needs is some out of tune Christmas muzak on a tape that isn't playing at the right speed or a warped record maybe and I'll be able to cross one of my life goals off the list

I'll make some calls.
I'll make some calls.
Ok, after finding the third cluster of creepy mannequins (is a group of them called a haunting? it should be) in pitch black spaces I feel I can confidently say I have been there and done that. Sorry creepy mannequins I am too tired to care if you steal my soul and make me one of you at this point
Matt Rogerson@AbandonedAmerica Cluster of mannequins...?
I thought the plural was like the plural of crows ..
A Murder of Mannequins...
@Mattrog they need their own thing, I think
Champagne@AbandonedAmerica I've never heard of Bahama Sun and just figured it was a knockoff of PacSun... But, then you said you are there now and I can't believe there is a Bahama Sun & Pacific Sun in the same mall.
@Champagne tbh maybe I just made the name Bahama Sun up. It might have been Abercrombie and Fitch, they took the sign off and I don't frequent those stores so me accidentally making an incorrect name up isn't out of the question 😬
Tommy Bahamas? Is that a mall store? Whatever the name, they're really distinctive. There's an awning over the entry. & can't see in. You have to go up a stair or three on a platform then turn left or right to go in
EDIT: Thanks, @inurlibrary - it's Hollister
@AbandonedAmerica I certainly don’t frequent them, but what you are describing does sound like the entry of an Abercrombie & fitch.
Lee Fife@AbandonedAmerica @Champagne I like the idea that the abandoned mall was so dystopian it even had fantasy crapstores ...
ChancerubbageTony Bahamas I think sells Hawaiian shirts for the husky crowd.
I miss old Abercrombie and Fitch, which used to be anachronistically Tweedy. Victorian/Edwardian classic prep school conservatism. Deerstalker caps, jackets with elbow patches, Meerschaum pipes.
In the 80s the chain was bought out became some homoerotic boy toy brand of some sort. They seemed to sell shirts by showing large posters of young men not wearing shirts.
Deborah Lee Soltesz@AbandonedAmerica I am reminded of random scenes I'd find in unexpected places in Fallout 4
Lauren Weinstein@AbandonedAmerica I think I see the Wheeping Angels over on the right. DON'T BLINK!
Tony WellsToo late, they've been transported back to the 1950's.
@TonyJWells @AbandonedAmerica They'll be back.
They can ask for my sunglasses but they won't get them. It's a bad idea anyway, they're prescription lenses
Dwight Williams (💉 x9)+😷🇨🇦@lauren @AbandonedAmerica I read "creepy mannequins", and my brain went straight to Autons, not Weeping Angels.
@DEWLine @AbandonedAmerica I saw the photo first.
Kari Dru@AbandonedAmerica Yeeeeah this is a lil UNSETTLING.
@KariDru isn't it great?? I live for unsettling
@AbandonedAmerica Oh, yes. What's the point of anything if you don't stumble into some kind of liminal quiet horror dimension from time to time?
@KariDru honestly, friend, that's where I feel the most at home
@AbandonedAmerica TBH I'm always anxious. I might as well have a reason.
@KariDru you pretty much hit the nail on the head
@KariDru like, if I've got to live in a world of unending horrors they might as well be ones that are tangible and that I can see. It's a bit of a relief actually (note this applies mostly only to haunting or creepy things, real world gore is not for me, hate to admit it but I'm squeamish AF)
@AbandonedAmerica And ones you can do something about. If it gets to be too much, you can leave the creepy mall.
@KariDru yes exactly. You get it.
@AbandonedAmerica I do. The world is effin scary but I'm not qite willing to hit da bricks as the skeleton says.
Dave Williams@AbandonedAmerica Yeah, that's creepy.
isotope239 🥸💻🇺🇦😣@AbandonedAmerica Just tucking this in here; for those folks who, tragically, aren't Dr. Who fans, this image is channeling probably the scariest monsters in the Whovian universe, The Weeping Angels: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blink_(Doctor_Who)
@AbandonedAmerica Mannequin storage is always an unusual thing to stumble upon, even if you are actively seeking out such corners.

🌱🐾🍋 #fcknzs@AbandonedAmerica creepy, yes. But nice. Do you ever take stuff (like those) home with you?
@Esssie31 nope not into burglary charges
@AbandonedAmerica Ah. Yeah, I can imagine.
@Esssie31 besides I do get to keep all the photos and that's more space effective 😊
@AbandonedAmerica Is your dog already better?
@Esssie31 I'm afraid not, our neighbors and my wife are watching him today 😔
@AbandonedAmerica If your last known transmission is a text from a deserted mall mentioning mannequins you will have fully lived the life
@Gojira1000 yeah I mean I feel like that's a very appropriate way for me to go
It's still Just Jason
