1. At Brown’s Pharmacy, late one night, a delivery driver was stocking shelves when he heard an odd noise coming from behind the counter. Curious, he peered around and found… nothing. But every time he turned away, the sound would return. Finally, the delivery driver decided to hide behind the counter himself. After several minutes of silence, he peeked out—and there stood an old man with a smile, holding a bag of candy. ‘Ah,’ said the man, ‘you must be new here. We always get a little noisy when someone new starts.’ The driver blushed, realizing it was just his neighbour playing a prank.

2. At Brown’s Pharmacy, an elderly lady was browsing through the aisles when she heard a strange humming sound coming from behind the counter. Curious, she turned around and saw a young pharmacist whistling while mixing some mysterious powders in a glass vial. As she watched, he suddenly stopped whistling and started muttering something under his breath. The old lady leaned closer, trying not to laugh out loud, but then realized he was just reciting the ingredients from memory. With a smile, she asked if he needed help with anything, earning herself a grateful nod and a funny wink before he went back to his work.

3. At Brown’s Pharmacy, while restocking boxes of aspirin, a young intern kept hearing whispers in the empty aisle behind him. He ignored them at first, but soon realized the voices seemed to know exactly what he needed. Finally curious, he turned around and found an old bottle of cough syrup whispering, ‘Take two teaspoons…’ The intern laughed it off until his coworker asked if he wanted some help with the stocking. Relieved, he said, ‘No thanks, I’m good—just talking to Brown’s old ghost.’

4. At Brown’s Pharmacy, on a stormy midnight, a lone customer was scanning the shelves for emergency supplies when suddenly the lights flickered and a voice whispered from behind the counter: ‘Are you sure you need everything in your basket?’ The customer turned around, but there was no one there. Just an old bottle of aspirin wobbling slightly on its shelf. With a laugh, they muttered, 'Guess I’ll take it anyway,' and walked out, leaving behind a puzzled delivery driver who’d just arrived with more cough syrup.
