About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens with an urgent package. As he approached the counter, the pharmacist looked up and said, ‘I’ve seen you here before… but I can’t quite place your face.’ The delivery driver smiled sheepishly. 'Oh, you're thinking of someone else,' he replied. The pharmacist shook his head, still trying to remember. Finally, he laughed and said, “You’re that nice guy who always forgets his own prescription!”

2. At dawn, a sleepy pharmacist unlocked Walgreens and found a mysterious sign taped to the door: ‘Open only if you hear three knocks tonight.’ Curious, he left it untouched until midnight. Just as the clock struck twelve, someone started gently tapping on the window behind him. Turning around, he saw nobody there—just an old man walking his dog down the street. The next morning, when he opened the store, everything was back to normal except for one small note on the counter: 'Three knocks were from your neighbor's dog.'

3. In the early morning hours, a curious sound like distant laughter echoed through the quiet streets near Walgreens. A local jogger noticed it first, pausing mid-stride to wonder if anyone had left the TV on. As he approached closer, another customer inside Walgreens heard it too and laughed, thinking maybe an employee was playing a prank. Turned out it was just the air conditioning unit humming in its own peculiar way. The jogger shook his head with a smile, realizing sometimes our minds play tricks on us—even in the dead of night outside Walgreens.

4. At midnight, when most Walgreens were sleeping, a strange figure in a white lab coat entered the store. A regular customer noticed him filling bottles with glowing liquid and whispering to himself. Suddenly, an exhausted delivery driver stumbled in, asking for aspirin. The ghostly pharmacist nodded, poured some of his mysterious brew into a bottle, and whispered, ‘Take twice daily.’ The next morning, everyone swore the guy was awake and cheerful—until they realized it was actually someone else.
