CVS Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when CVS Pharmacy’s shelves were nearly empty and only a sleepy night stocker remained, customers began reporting hearing an eerie voice over the intercom. ‘Medicine for what ails you… but hurry, supplies are running low,’ it whispered in a deep, unseen tone. One night, a delivery driver heard the whispering voice too and thought he was going crazy until his coffee kicked in. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe the ghost of a former pharmacist was trying to warn them about expired medicines. Since then, employees leave an extra box of aspirin on the counter—just in case.

2. In the early hours of morning, a little girl walked into her local CVS Pharmacy, wide-eyed and curious. The night clerk noticed something odd—she kept pointing up towards the ceiling, giggling softly as if she’d found a hidden treasure. Curious, the clerk followed her gaze and saw nothing but the ordinary ceiling lights. ‘What did you see?’ he asked gently. With another soft giggle, she pointed higher, right above his head—and there, hanging upside down, was a misplaced security camera. Everyone burst out laughing, including the little girl who promptly ran off with a smile, leaving behind a note that read “Thanks for helping me find my treasure!”

3. At closing time, when the last customer had left, an old man entered the CVS pharmacy and asked the cashier: ‘Do you sell dreams here?’ The cashier smiled warmly and replied, 'We don't sell dreams here, sir.' The old man nodded knowingly and said, 'I thought as much,' then walked out whistling softly. A few minutes later, a delivery driver joked to the cashier, 'Guess that old guy wanted his dream package delivered somewhere else!'

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up outside the CVS Pharmacy, he heard a strange humming sound coming from inside. It wasn’t quite like anything he’d ever heard before. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man dancing around the shelves, singing along to some unknown tune. Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic pharmacist celebrating his birthday. The delivery driver left with a smile, thinking that maybe CVS stands for ‘Celebrations Vibrantly Surrounding’.
