About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Boots Pharmacy, every morning begins with a strange ritual. A regular customer always enters just as the sun rises, carrying an empty bucket and wearing gloves. He walks straight to the back room, never speaking or making eye contact with anyone. After a few minutes of intense silence, he emerges from the back, his bucket now filled with tiny packets of herbs and spices. Without saying a word, he pays for them, grabs a bottle of water, and leaves. The pharmacists always smile and nod discreetly—nobody knows what he does with those ingredients, but everyone agrees it must be something special. Even the delivery drivers sometimes bring him extra items when they pass by.
2. At Boots Pharmacy, customers often notice an unusual sight in the early hours. As soon as the doors open, a delivery driver starts humming softly while placing boxes on the counter. One day, a small child peeked inside and asked her mother, ‘Why does he sing like that?’ The mother smiled and whispered back, ‘He’s not just singing, dear—he’s counting the pills!’ The little girl giggled, realizing it was a funny secret between them.
3. At Boots Pharmacy, why does the mailman always wave from across the street? Nobody knows for sure, but some say he’s waving hello to the ghostly figure that occasionally appears behind the counter. Others claim it’s just an old photo on the wall reflecting in the window, but then again, who would put a picture of themselves as a ghost in their pharmacy?” The regulars joke that maybe the mailman is trying to deliver letters from beyond, and everyone laughs, knowing it’s all part of Boots’ charming mystery.
4. At Boots Pharmacy, every night after closing, a tiny voice can be heard whispering from the shelves. The staff ignores it, but one day, a curious child asked the pharmacist if they’d ever seen the ghostly figure of an old lady wandering among the bottles. The pharmacist shook their head and smiled. ‘No, never,’ they said. But that evening, when everyone had left, a delivery driver noticed an old lady pushing a shopping cart filled with empty boxes. She waved cheerfully as she disappeared into the storeroom. Turns out, Boots was just hosting an enthusiastic volunteer for the week.’
