About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the Walgreens parking lot—a small wooden carousel had mysteriously appeared overnight. No one claimed responsibility or explained its presence. Over the next few days, more and more neighbors began stopping by to ride it during their coffee breaks. Soon enough, an old man from down the street joined in, winning everyone’s hearts with his childlike joy. Eventually, someone painted colorful animals on the horses—turning the carousel into a charming local landmark that no one could resist visiting.

2. Late one night, an employee was closing up the Walgreens when she heard strange noises coming from the back room. Curious but cautious, she peeked inside and found… nothing. The next day, though, customers started reporting seeing shadowy figures darting between shelves. Soon enough, everyone in town was talking about it—even a delivery driver swore he saw a ghostly figure helping him unload boxes late one evening. Finally, after weeks of sightings, the manager hired a local exorcist. Turns out, it was just an old vacuum cleaner left on in the storage area. Moral of the story? Never leave your Walgreens without turning off the vacuum.

3. A little boy walked into the Walgreens one afternoon, holding his mom's hand tightly. As they approached the checkout counter, he pointed excitedly at a shelf of candies and asked, 'Mom, why do these jellybeans change colors every day?' The mother smiled and replied, ‘They don’t actually change color, honey. The store puts new ones on display each day.’ Just then, an elderly gentleman behind them cleared his throat and said softly, ‘Actually, sonny, I heard it’s because the manager likes to keep things interesting!’ Everyone laughed gently as the boy looked puzzled, but happy with the story.

4. One day, while waiting for his prescription, a regular asked the pharmacist: ‘Do you ever see ghosts here?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Not yet, but I’ve seen some curious things.’ The pharmacist thought for a moment, then said with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Actually, last week our delivery driver insisted on leaving through the front door, even though there’s a perfectly good back entrance.’ Everyone laughed, including the regular who had started the conversation.
