About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the H-E-B Pharmacy lights dimmed, customers noticed something strange. A little boy, holding his mom’s hand, would stop and stare at one aisle in particular. Every time he did, the shelves seemed to shift ever so slightly. One day, a delivery driver mentioned it to another customer, who overheard a neighbor talking about it. Soon, everyone was watching that aisle—until finally, someone asked the pharmacist if they had any new kids’ toys on display. Turned out, it was just an old mannequin with a misplaced smile.
2. Late one afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the H-E-B Pharmacy with a frown on his face. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he heard an eerie humming coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a tiny old man in a white coat dancing around shelves of aspirin. ‘What are you doing?’ asked the driver. The little fellow turned and replied, ‘Just keeping things lively here!’ And with that, he twirled away into the shadows. The delivery guy shrugged and drove off, muttering something about ‘senior citizens’ and ‘weird pharmacies.’
3. Late one morning, as a delivery driver approached the H-E-B Pharmacy, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he peered through the glass door and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed the pharmacy’s shelves seemed to sway ever so slightly. Suddenly, he saw a small, round object rolling down the aisle—a bottle of aspirin. The driver chuckled, thinking it was just a prank by a neighbor. But when he opened the door wider, a friendly voice called out, ‘Hey, can you grab some Band-Aids for me?’ Turns out, it was only a regular customer playing a harmless joke.
4. Late one morning, as a delivery driver approached the H-E-B Pharmacy, he saw a small dog frantically barking and running around the parking lot. The pharmacist inside peered out curiously but couldn’t see anything unusual—just the excited pup. Just then, an old lady walked up to the counter, asking for her prescription. The pharmacist calmly explained that she’d left it on the counter earlier, right next to where the little dog had been sniffing. Everyone laughed, including the relieved owner who rushed over with a big smile, saying, ‘I thought my Patches had run away again!’
