: MELROSE— Candy Castle is pulling up its drawbridge and closing for good on Friday, Feb. 24, as owners Vita and Tom Bugden of Medford have decided to retire after owning the store since 1985. The past two weeks have been the busiest the store has been in a while, Vita Bugden said, as word of the store's impending closure spread. On Wednesday, a steady stream of people came in and out of the store, and the phone rang every couple of minutes. "Oh yes, I guess it’s all over Facebook," Vita Bugden said. "I’m hearing everybody's upset that the store is going. We had people that come from all over—Malden, Stoneham, Wakefield. People who come down New Hampshire, or they live up in Maine, but they’ll still come back. They just like the store. They moved out when they were young, so when they come back, this is where they always come. I guess there’s not too many stores like this anymore like this." -Daniel DeMaina
