About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the CVS pharmacy closed its doors, customers often heard soft footsteps on the empty hallway. A little girl in a red dress would appear from behind shelves, smiling shyly and pointing to the candy aisle. One day, an elderly gentleman came in for his medicine. As he walked down the aisle, he noticed the little girl was still there, holding onto a bag of gummy bears. ‘I thought you were only here at night,’ he said with a smile. She looked up and giggled, replying, ‘Well, Grandpa, I’m here every day—just helping out my mom!’

2. Late one afternoon, while stocking shelves in the backroom of CVS, a delivery driver swore he felt someone watching him from behind the pill counters. When he turned around, there was nothing but empty aisles and quiet hum of refrigerators. Curious, he peeked into each aisle, but found only dusty bottles and sleeping security cameras. Later that night, while counting pills, an old lady asked for cough medicine. The delivery driver joked, ‘Ma’am, I’ve been standing here since lunchtime waiting for someone to steal something!’ She smiled warmly and replied, “Sonny, you’re too late—we already closed.”

3. Late one morning, an early riser was restocking shelves in the quiet aisles of CVS when he noticed something odd—an old-fashioned soda fountain had mysteriously appeared between two shelves. Curious, he approached it and found a note: ‘Free treats for good customers!’ Soon enough, the whole store buzzed with the scent of fresh lemonade and homemade cookies. A regular stopped by later that day, smiling: “Finally, a place where I can get my daily fix of nostalgia—and maybe even a free refill!”

4. Late one evening, as a little boy waited for his mom inside the dimly lit CVS pharmacy, he noticed something odd—a small shadowy figure darted between the shelves and quickly disappeared behind the counter. Just then, an elderly lady approached the counter, muttering under her breath about ‘those darn kids these days.’ Startled, the boy realized it was actually her shadow that had spooked him earlier. They both shared a laugh, and the woman said, ‘Honey, when I was your age, we used to hide in pharmacies to avoid curfews!’
