About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Walgreens should’ve been quiet and empty, a soft voice came over the intercom: ‘If you’re the one who keeps stealing our pens, please return them.’ A sleepy night-shift pharmacist heard the message too. She smiled, thinking it must be a prank from an anonymous regular. The next day, she left a basket of pens on the counter with a note: 'We forgive you—please stop apologizing!'

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver was loading boxes into the backroom of Walgreens, he heard an odd sound from behind the shelves. Curious, he peered around only to see a small, shadowy figure whispering into its reflection in the mirror. Curious, he leaned closer and saw that it was just an old man adjusting his glasses. The man turned, smiled sheepishly, and said, ‘Sorry son, I thought this place was haunted!’ The delivery driver laughed and offered him some help finding what he needed. Turns out, the guy was just a regular neighbor who mistook the store’s security mirrors for something spookier.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver was unloading crates in the dimly lit alley behind Walgreens, he heard an odd sound coming from inside the dumpster. Curious, he peered into the trashcan and saw only old newspapers and empty bottles. Suddenly, a voice whispered, ‘Hey, can you spare some aspirin?’ Turns out it was just an elderly neighbor who’d forgotten his housekey again.

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver was unloading crates in the dimly lit basement of Walgreens, he heard a familiar voice whispering behind him. "Excuse me, sir?" It was an old photo album from a crate, gently calling out for its owner. Curious, the driver picked up the album and flipped through pages filled with faded photos of smiling faces. ‘Aren’t you that Mrs. Johnson from across the street?’ he asked hesitantly. Turns out she’d donated her family pictures to the store decades ago. They were just waiting for someone to notice them again.
