About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Walgreens usually buzzes with early risers, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: the store’s neon sign blinked not just red and green, but also in an eerie purple hue. Curious, he peered inside through the window—nothing was amiss. Just as he turned away, the sign flickered back to normal. Shrugging it off, he drove on, muttering that maybe the old sign needed replacing. Later that day, a regular customer asked if they’d changed their lighting, causing everyone to laugh and forget about the strange incident altogether.

2. At dusk, while restocking shelves, an employee found a small, dusty violin nestled among the first aid kits. As he picked it up, he noticed an old envelope taped inside the case. Curious, he opened it and read: 'To the next good soul who finds me—please return me to Mrs. Jenkins.' Turns out, it was someone's lost instrument from the community orchestra rehearsals across the street. The whole store burst into laughter when they heard him playing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' during his break.

3. At midnight, when most pharmacies are quiet, a security guard heard soft footsteps echoing through the aisles of Walgreens. Curious, he followed them only to discover a cat diligently stocking shelves with tiny bottles and boxes. The security guard watched in amazement as the little feline expertly placed each item back on its shelf. Turning around, the cat looked up at him with an expression that seemed almost apologetic before vanishing into thin air. To this day, some employees claim they still hear faint meows coming from behind closed cabinets after hours.

4. At closing time, when Walgreens was already dark and empty, a night janitor discovered a tiny, folded note tucked inside a medicine bottle on the counter. Curious, he unfolded it to read: ‘Dear Sir, I left my dream here. Could you please wake me up?’ The janitor laughed out loud, roused the sleeping pill, and whispered, ‘Dreaming of Walgreens? Must be one heckuva fantasy!’
