Kroger Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Kroger Pharmacy, a regular muttered one day, ‘I’m starting to think these aspirin are listening.’ Employees shrugged it off until customers began reporting hearing whispers too—soft voices whispering names and dates no one else could hear. Finally, an eccentric delivery driver claimed he heard the pills singing old-timey songs. The pharmacist smiled, shook his head, and said, 'Well, I guess every now and then our aspirin get a little…spirited.'

2. At dawn, when most pharmacies are quiet, an elderly gentleman entered Kroger Pharmacy and asked the clerk with a twinkle in his eye: 'Do you have any special prescriptions for werewolves?' The clerk smiled knowingly and replied, ‘Only one that I’m aware of—an ancient potion for insomnia.’ The old man laughed heartily, paid for his prescription, and left, muttering something about full moons and early morning deliveries. Since then, whenever there's a full moon, people joke that Kroger Pharmacy stays open late for its special customers.’

3. At Kroger Pharmacy, a delivery driver once asked curiously, 'Why does every box of Band-Aids say "For External Use Only"?' A kind pharmacist smiled and whispered, ‘Because inside each band-aid is a tiny note saying “Please don’t eat me.”’ The delivery driver nodded knowingly, realizing he’d just been had with one of life’s gentle urban legends.

4. At night, when the neighborhood settled into sleep, a strange humming noise began drifting from Kroger Pharmacy's closed doors. Neighbors would peer through their windows, curious but not alarmed. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off behind the wheel outside the pharmacy. His truck’s dim headlights cast eerie shadows on the building, making it seem like the place was glowing softly. When he finally woke up, everyone in the neighborhood burst out laughing—except for him, who’d been worried he’d missed something important.
