Truth: Alzheimer's patients often see people in the ceilings, especially in the corners.

In this case I believe there was a second level to the store where people were watching from one report I’ve read.

Edit: Back with my grandfather was unfortunately suffering with dementia I remember For a time one of the nursing homes he was in had a specially designed unit with specific architectural and lighting features to try to minimize things like that.

In the corners? Holy cow I didn't know that. My dad used to tell me about people who were looking in the house, or people walking by that weren't there. He'd ask me if they were real or not, but not see real people that really were outside. Before he got really bad, he was obsessed with the movie, A beautiful mind. He could still word for word all his favorite 1960's star trek episodes but he couldn't remember where the kitchen was.

Make a point of associating every place in your house with a positive memory or experience that has a unique narrative to each other one. Like episodes of Star Trek. It won't save your brain, but if you have multiple different ways of remembering the information, the chances of it being lost are lowered.
