About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, after closing hours, an anonymous voice came over Fry’s Pharmacy intercom: ‘Last one out, don’t forget your umbrella.’ Strange messages followed every week, always unsigned and never repeated. Finally, a delivery driver asked aloud one day, ‘Who keeps leaving these notes?’ A quiet voice replied from behind the counter: ‘That would be me—just reminding everyone to take their vitamins!’
2. Late one afternoon, as the pharmacist locked up for the day, he noticed a small note taped to the front door of Fry’s Pharmacy. It read: ‘Don’t forget your secret ingredient!’ Curious, the pharmacist removed the note and peeked inside—it was just a piece of paper with some random doodles on it. But then he saw something odd: written in pencil were instructions like 'Add 1 drop of moonlight' or 'Mix with morning dew.' Shaking his head, he threw away the note, but every now and then, customers would mention hearing strange whispers coming from behind the counter—maybe they were imagining things.
3. Late one morning, while the sun was just rising, a delivery driver pulled up outside Fry’s Pharmacy. He swore he heard a faint humming coming from inside the empty building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old radio blinking on a dusty shelf. Inside, a regular customer dozed, his head resting on a pile of expired aspirin bottles. ‘Morning, Mr. Jenkins,’ said the driver, smiling. The old man jumped awake, rubbing sleep from his eyes. ‘Good heavens!’ he exclaimed, ‘I must’ve fallen asleep waiting for my prescription.’
4. Late one evening, while the moon was high above, a little girl pointed excitedly at something on the pharmacy shelf and whispered, 'Momma, what are those funny bottles doing here?' The mother smiled and gently explained, ‘Honey, they’re just special medicines for very rare diseases.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then asked curiously, ‘Can I have one?’ Mom laughed softly and replied, ‘Not tonight, sweetie—maybe when you grow up!’
