About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn one morning, when most Walgreens were still quiet and empty, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the parking lot. A small, old-fashioned suitcase kept appearing, left anonymously near the entrance. Curious, he approached it, only to find inside an ancient thermos filled with freshly brewed coffee and a note reading: ‘For our early hero.’ From that day on, every morning before sunrise, a fresh pot of java mysteriously appeared for the dedicated night owls working late.

2. In the late afternoon, when the sun was setting behind the Walgreens sign, an elderly gentleman walked into the pharmacy with a peculiar expression on his face. He approached the counter holding something small and wrapped in brown paper. The pharmacist raised an eyebrow as he unwrapped it—inside was a freshly baked pie. The pharmacist took one bite and burst out laughing. Turns out, every Wednesday afternoon, an anonymous neighbor brought in pies for everyone who worked there. It became known around town as ‘the Walgreens Pie Tradition,’ making even the busiest days feel a little bit sweeter.

3. In the early hours of the morning, as a sleepy delivery driver approached Walgreens, he heard a voice from inside: ‘Hey, pal! Don’t you know it’s Sunday?’ Curious, the driver peered through the window and saw an elderly gentleman in a bathrobe, holding a bottle of aspirin. ‘Sunday’s my day off,’ replied the pharmacist with a twinkle in his eye. The delivery guy laughed and shook his head, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll remember to check if it’s Sunday before making a delivery!’

4. At midnight, while a lone delivery driver was unloading boxes in front of Walgreens, he heard a voice whispering from inside the store: ‘Are you almost done? I’ve been waiting for ages.’ Curious, the driver peered through the window and saw no one. Just as he turned around, an old lady shuffled out from behind the counter with a smile, holding a bag of groceries. ‘Oh,’ she said, ‘I thought you were closing up already.’ The driver burst into laughter, realizing it was just another late-night Walgreens ghost story.
