About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Cynthia Koelker’s pharmacy and noticed an unusual sign in the window: ‘Closed for ghostly consultations.’ Curious, he walked in only to hear a voice from behind the counter say, ‘Welcome, my good spirit!’ The delivery driver looked around, rubbed his eyes, and asked, ‘Excuse me, are you…’ The voice interrupted, saying cheerfully, ‘A friendly ghost here to help spirits like you!’ Turns out it was just Cynthia’s new Halloween decoration—an animatronic ghost that had gotten stuck on loop. The neighbor later admitted they’d thought it would be funny until the delivery guy called them at three am asking if their pharmacy was haunted.

2. At dawn one morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Cynthia Koelker’s pharmacy. The quiet street was bathed in early sunlight, but inside the pharmacy something odd was happening. The delivery driver knocked on the door, and an elderly lady with sleepy eyes peered out. ‘What time is it already?’ she asked groggily. Turning around, she called softly into the pharmacy, ‘Honey, could you come down for a second? We’ve got a package here!’

3. At dusk, a little girl walked past Cynthia Koelker’s doctor’s office. Suddenly, her shadow seemed to stretch beyond the sidewalk, growing longer than she was, as if reaching for something unseen. Curious, she stopped and looked up at the window where Dr. Koelker worked late into the night. The doctor smiled warmly and waved, then turned back to her computer screen—only to accidentally spill coffee on her white lab coat. With a sheepish grin, she muttered, ‘Another reason not to wear white after Labor Day!’

4. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up outside Cynthia Koelker’s clinic. In the dim light of the parking lot, he spotted something odd—a small envelope taped to the windshield of the receptionist’s car. Curious, he picked it up and saw only one word scribbled inside—‘Coffee.’ Turns out, the receptionist had accidentally left her note for the morning shift.}
