You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return... -
Sounds like another pretend TRU like the handful of stores they opened the last time they pulled this con. “Interactive product demos” was a big thing last go around too. That’s slang for they won’t have much of anything on the shelves but will try to get you to buy general stuff that’s easy to find anywhere from their online store... which is just Macy’s. -

From the looks of what I see online about the company...they are a hedge fund company. Not a good sign for ANY company. So the trip might be short for Toys R Us.

Hedge Funds DESTROYED Marvel Comics and Toy Biz.Comment
