About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while stocking shelves, an employee noticed something odd in the pharmacy aisle—a small, handwritten sign reading ‘Free Samples of Everything Today.’ No one seemed to be around distributing them, but soon enough, customers started reporting free samples appearing mysteriously in their shopping bags. Finally, after days of confusion, Walgreens hired a delivery driver named Alex to investigate. He found nothing suspicious until one day when he saw a regular customer, Mrs. Johnson, whispering into her bag and giggling. Turns out she was hiding the free samples behind her back! The mystery solved—just good ol’ fashioned mischief.

2. While restocking the shelves one night, a Walgreens employee overheard a delivery driver muttering under his breath: ‘I’ve seen some strange things on my route, but tonight’s prize has gotta be the talking pill bottle.’ Curious, the employee followed the sound and found an old lady's prescription bottle dancing gently on the counter, humming 'Happy Birthday' in a squeaky voice. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood received a handwritten note from the smiling pharmacist wishing them a happy day with the catchy tune of the talking pill bottle still playing in their heads.

3. While restocking the shelves late one night, a Walgreens employee heard a voice whispering from behind the counter: ‘I’m not supposed to be here until tomorrow.’ Curious, the worker turned around and saw only a bottle of aspirin slightly out of place. Smiling to himself, he thought it was just an old pill talking. The next morning, when a delivery driver arrived with new stock, they found the night-shift employee sound asleep on the floor, his head resting on a box of Band-Aids—obviously having dozed off while rearranging the medicine.

4. Late one night, as the night stocker was putting away last-minute supplies, he heard a soft humming coming from behind the counter. Curious, he peered around and saw nothing but a lone bottle of aspirin swaying gently on its shelf. Suddenly, the bottle started to spin slowly in circles, creating a tiny whirlwind that blew some cotton balls onto the floor. Startled, the worker picked them up and noticed they were labeled ‘cough drops’. Turning back to the aisle, he found everything was quiet again. Shaking his head with a smile, he thought, ‘Must be an old Walgreens ghost—always trying to help customers!’
