Rite Aid

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the store closed and the lights were off, a little girl in a red dress would appear in front of the Rite Aid pharmacy. No one could see her during the day, but every evening she stood there, waving at the delivery drivers as they pulled up outside. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off behind the wheel and drove straight towards the ghostly figure. Just before impact, a concerned neighbor shouted, ‘Wave back, it’s just another sleep-deprived human!’ The next morning, everyone agreed that maybe the little girl wasn’t so scary after all.

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the backroom of Rite Aid. Among the boxes of medicine and supplies, there sat an old, dusty teddy bear wearing a tiny lab coat. The delivery driver picked up the bear, who seemed to wave hello with one little arm. Over time, the bear became a surprise fixture in the store’s break room, entertaining everyone with his mismatched socks and quirky personality. To this day, some say that whenever you see a customer leaving with a smile on their face, it’s because they passed by the bear's cozy corner—proof that even a dusty teddy can brighten someone’s morning.

3. In the dead of night, when only moonlight illuminated the streets, an overnight stocker heard soft footsteps echoing through the empty aisles. Curious, he followed the sound and found a small cat meowing near the shelves. The feline seemed lost but determined, as if on a secret mission. Turns out, it was just hungry and had mistaken the pharmacy for a snack bar. After some quiet chatter and a few treats from the stocker’s pocket, they became fast friends, and every night after that, the cat would visit ‘Rite Aid’ for its midnight snack.

4. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a mail carrier delivering packages heard a strange humming sound coming from inside the nearly empty pharmacy. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man in a lab coat dancing around, humming cheerfully to himself. Turns out, it was just an elderly pharmacist practicing his morning warm-up routine before opening for customers. As the sun rose, everyone went back to their usual routines—except maybe the delivery driver who now always stopped by for a friendly chat with the ‘morning dancer’.
