Locally owned ones and Family Video seem to be the only cases. Family Video mostly because of their affiliation/shared ownership(?) with Marco's Pizza. I've also seen Papa Murphy's attached to a Family Video, so maybe they just partner with whatever is around.

Mom and Pop video stores can be comfy af.

I know. Used to like walking in there to look at the lights then they started selling that crap.

A couple of times, back when video stores were still around. It has been more than 10 years since I last was in one.

I wonder what it would be like to have worked in a video store in the past.

Once dropped something and it rolled into that section and went to go get it, but there wasn't a curtain. I forget if there were the bead strings to walk though or if it was just a door that could be closed.
I remember there being a pillar and a decent selection. This is when I was a little kid and didn't know what it was.

The more fun story however was when I just had graduated High School and my friends and I saw a store that had a sale of something like buy 1 get 2 free movies. We all went into the store and looked around, saw weird old VHS's like the TMNT Christmas Special, Rescue Rangers, Power Rangers and strange but cool looking 80s movies.

Then a year or so later we found out that it was actually a porn shop and we were just looking in the front. 4 teenage kids could not figure out that we were in a porn shop.

No; I didn't frequent video stores enough to know/notice an "alternate area" existed.

TBH, I think the first time I went to a video store, I noticed it.

I remember being like 5 or 6 and always begging my parents to let me go back there, and they never would. It was always a big mystery, like "I know that is where they keep the GOOD video games!" Wasn't till I was a bit older and learned what was REALLY behind there that I had a good laugh at young, naive me.

That was the only video store with a black curtain section that I had ever seen.

I used to work at a video store years ago, but it was a locally owned "family friendly" store that didn't even carry adult movies. Not that people didn't awkwardly ask for them on like a daily basis.

I remember when Blockbuster carried adult movies and had a room for them. Every so often, I'd find one that made its way onto the main floor. Speaking of Blockbuster, I remember renting Golgo 13, which was in the Kids section because, you know, it's a cartoon.

I did, one time. I viewed it as a rite of passage, because it was a mystery when you were a little kid.

I was blushing because it was a really hot and sweaty day, and I had to walk all the way from my house on the other side of town, and this hot girl was working. I hoped she wasn't looking when I went back there.

But it wasn't really anything special. Actually, it was pretty lackluster, especially since I had DSL internet by then.

Oh and the video store closed down a couple of years later because Netflix etc.
