About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the store closed and the lights went off, an elderly gentleman started appearing in the aisles of Walgreens. Customers heard him whispering softly as they passed by shelves filled with medicines. One day, a delivery driver noticed the old man and asked, ‘Excuse me, sir, do you work here?’ The ghostly figure smiled faintly and replied, ‘No, sonny, I just like checking if everything’s in order before closing up shop.’ Everyone laughed it off until one employee found an extra bag of candies hidden behind aspirin bottles—clearly left by our friendly nighttime stocker.

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something odd in one of the shopping carts outside Walgreens. A small, wrapped package seemed out of place among the usual groceries. Curious, he picked it up and found inside a note saying ‘Happy Halloween from your friendly neighborhood trick-or-treater!’ Opening the package, he discovered a bag filled with candy corn and miniature pumpkins. Turns out, someone had left an early trick-or-treat gift for the staff. The delivery driver smiled, thinking how nice it was to start his day with such a sweet surprise.

3. At dawn, when most pharmacies were still locked tight, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens. He noticed a strange figure inside, carefully rearranging bottles on the shelves. The driver watched in amusement as the figure placed Band-Aids next to aspirin and cough drops near cold medicine. When he finally approached, the stranger turned out to be just an early morning shopper, humming softly to herself. ‘Morning,’ she said with a smile. ‘Just making sure everything’s in its proper place.’ The delivery guy laughed and nodded, thinking it was one of those quirky Walgreens rituals.

4. At midnight, when Walgreens should have been quiet as a mouse, a delivery driver heard soft footsteps in the aisles. Curious, he peeked around the corner—and saw no one. The delivery driver followed the sound cautiously but found nothing out of place. Just as he was about to leave, an old bottle of aspirin fell from a shelf with a loud clink. Startled, he looked around again—still empty. Shaking his head, he shrugged it off and went home, only to discover later that day that someone had accidentally left the store’s door unlocked.}
