Oak Hollow Mall — Local services in High Point

it's been dead here for a few years now. they're used to be a few trendy clothing stores like Pacsun and Abercrombie, a few anchor stores like JCPenny, a full food court, and a cinema. now the only food place operating in the whole mall is a locally owned soul food spot that's admittedly pretty good. the one remaining anchor store, Dillard's, has converted it's location into a single-story outlet with discount items from last season for dirt cheap. the main floors are mostly vacant. there's the corpse Disney store with the reel-themed sign torn off. there's an old cinnamon bun store on the first floor that's not even barred off, you could easily just hop into it. there's a few local businesses, mostly clothing stores and hair salons/barbershops. there's also a few of the mainstays of american malls including a Victoria's Secret, Bath and Body Works, and Foot Locker. the interior aesthetics are frozen in time in the 1990s, the obvious heyday of the ruin in question. there are fake palms and a center event stage surrounded by fake plants, and the tiles are mostly white but accented by soft pinks and greens. it's a pretty sad sight because I remember going here to buy video games as a kid, and Lego sets, and various clothing styles that changed with my attitudes and current trends. it's strange that there are actually quite a few people here on any given day but it's far deader than any mall in the other cities. if you wanna shop go somewhere else. if you wanna walk around an emptyish mall just for the hell of it then this...

YEP it sure is a 'dead zone' here for the most part. This MUST be the only operating mall where in the entire FOOD COURT there's ONLY ONE RESTAURANT ! HOWEVER THAT ONE REMAINING EATING SPOT named DENORIS SOUL FOOD is FANTASTIC ALL BY IT'SELF !! :)

1. It's a FAMILY OWNED, SMALL, entrepreneurial BUSINESS. 2) The food tastes wonderful, is hearty, fills you up, it's hot and the servings are generous! 3) If you are short of cash they'll try to meet you half way with two items for under $5.00! 4) THE CUSTOMER SERVICE is tops! A full meal runs around $9.00 - $10.00 but can be well worth it if you're HUNGRY and need something nutritious! (not cheap and tasteless - for that Mcdonald's is still on the loop).

Though I'm a major penny pincher (Just ask Denoris!) whenever I go to THE MEDITATION MALL to do some walking & stair climbing I usually can't pass by this eatery, on my way out, without caving to my cravings! Nothing else nearby can take it's place.

Oh by the way, stereotyped ideas about "SOUL FOOD" aside, I'm a white guy and a REGULAR...

If you want to film a horror movie in here, go ahead, nobody's going to stop you. Plus, you don't even have to get a team of set designers to make it look creepy, it's already the creepiest place I've been to in recent years.

I dared my friend to spend the night there and he came out screaming in terror. Funny thing was, it was only 4:45pm.

If you play 'Bloody Mary' in the bathrooms of this mall, Mary won't pop out and kill you, she's been so lonely for so long with the lack of people that she would much rather have a nice chat.

I thought I saw a security guard there once, turns out it was just several garbage bags someone had left in the middle of the hallway that nobody was cleaning up. I bet it's still there.

There's a food court there, or rather, a food cemetery.

If you're a band, practice here, the long empty halls and boarded-up windows make for great...
