CVS Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, an overnight CVS delivery driver noticed something strange. As he approached the parking lot, a soft humming sound filled the air—like someone whistling a familiar tune, but coming from nowhere. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old man watering flowers next to his car. ‘You’ve got a green thumb,’ joked the driver. The neighbor smiled sheepishly, replying, ‘Just trying to keep my plants happy.’

2. In the early morning hours, a sleepy neighborhood dog began barking uncontrollably outside the CVS pharmacy. No cars were parked, no lights were on—just the dog, howling as if it had seen a ghost. Finally, an exhausted delivery driver appeared, scratching his head. ‘What’s with that dog?’ he asked. The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘Must be having a bad dream.’ They both went back inside, leaving the barking canine to its own devices—and presumably, its nightmare.

3. In the quiet suburbs of Boston, late one night, a CVS delivery driver heard a faint humming sound coming from inside the pharmacy's loading bay. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed the neon-green glow reflecting off the shelves. Closer inspection revealed nothing more than a mischievous neighborhood cat, who had found an unlikely midnight snack in some leftover highlighter pens. The next morning, the pharmacist joked that maybe it was time for a new security camera—one with better night vision.

4. In a small town in Ohio, every evening around sunset, a little girl would run into her family’s local CVS pharmacy. Her parents had no idea why she did it until they saw what she did next: she always stopped to pet the invisible cat that only she could see. One night, a delivery driver noticed the girl and asked if he could help her. She smiled sweetly and said, ‘No thank you, he can’t see him either.’ Turns out, the invisible cat was just an old teddy bear named Chester that nobody remembered putting away.
