About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Walgreens was usually quiet, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The shelves in the health and beauty aisle seemed to rearrange themselves overnight. Curious, he peeked behind the counter—nothing out of place there either. Just as he shrugged it off, an old lady walked in, asking for her usual pain relievers. ‘Same ones you always get,’ she said with a smile. The delivery driver realized then that maybe someone was just helping out around here.’

2. In the early morning, while most people were still asleep, an alarming sight caught the eye of a delivery driver outside Walgreens. A small dog, its fur standing on end, raced past the pharmacy, yapping frantically and pointing towards the entrance. Curious, the delivery driver followed the little fury into the store, only to see him dash behind the counter where an old bottle of aspirin lay half-opened. Turns out, it was just a brave canine pharmacist’s assistant on duty that night!

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the dimly lit parking lot, he heard a familiar voice calling from inside the store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an elderly gentleman rearranging shelves. ‘Sir,’ asked the driver, ‘aren’t you supposed to be home watching reruns of I Love Lucy?’ The old man looked up with a twinkle in his eye, replying, ‘Sonny, tonight’s the grand opening of my secret time-share club—Walgreens Night Shifters!’

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the dimly lit parking lot, he heard an odd humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious but cautious, he peered through the glass door and saw nothing unusual—until he looked up at the ceiling. Suddenly, a voice boomed from above: ‘Welcome to Walgreens, where your prescriptions are always filled with a smile!’ Startled, the driver looked around and saw a large sign on the ceiling that had been there all along. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned ghosts at Walgreens, everyone just laughed and said, ‘Must be another late-night employee playing a prank.’
