1. At H-E-B Pharmacy, a regular once asked the cashier, ‘Do you ever see ghosts here?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Not that I know of.’ But then, one night... But then, one night, a delivery driver swears he saw an old lady behind the counter, filling prescriptions without any help. When asked if she was real, everyone just laughed it off as another late-night prank. Turned out, it was just an enthusiastic new pharmacist in disguise, trying to impress her colleagues.

2. At H-E-B Pharmacy, an elderly neighbor stopped in one day and asked the pharmacist with a twinkle in her eye: 'Have you ever seen a customer come in here without their prescription?' The pharmacist smiled knowingly and replied, ‘Only once or twice, ma’am.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked up to the counter holding a large box. The old lady leaned over and whispered, ‘I bet that’s his prescription for insomnia!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the pharmacist who shook his head and said, “Yep, that’d be him.”

3. At H-E-B Pharmacy, a delivery driver once noticed something odd on the loading dock—a mysterious box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he opened it to find…nothing but a note that read, ‘Open only if bored.’ The delivery driver laughed and shrugged, thinking maybe someone had pranked him. Later that night, while watching TV, his phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number: 'PS: Next time look for the invisible key.'

4. At H-E-B Pharmacy, after hours when everything seemed quiet, a delivery driver heard a small voice whispering from behind the counter. Curious, he looked around but saw no one. The next morning, the same voice called out again—this time clearly saying, ‘Excuse me, sir!’ Finally, the pharmacist realized it was just an old tape recorder playing a loop of someone asking for help. They turned off the recording and laughed, realizing they’d been spooked by a simple prank. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned ghosts in the pharmacy, everyone would smile and say, ‘Must be that nosy neighbor leaving messages!’
