About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Apotheco Pharmacy, a regular customer complained one day: ‘Why do I always get aspirin when I ask for ibuprofen?’ The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘Because you never specify the brand!’ A few days later, an irate neighbor stormed in yelling, ‘I asked for cough syrup, but they gave me eye drops!’ The pharmacist smiled and said, ‘Next time, maybe try specifying “for my throat” instead of just “cough”.’

2. At Apotheco Pharmacy, late one night, a delivery driver swore he heard someone whispering behind the counter. Curious, he peeked around and saw only empty shelves and dim lights. But when he checked again an hour later, there was a faint scent of lavender in the air. Curious, he decided to stay longer. Suddenly, from behind the counter came a soft voice: ‘Would you like some free samples with that?’ Turns out it was just the new intern, trying to make friends. The delivery driver left smiling, thinking maybe Apotheco wasn’t so creepy after all.

3. At Apotheco Pharmacy, an elderly lady asked curiously: ‘Why does every bottle here seem to be labeled in Latin?’ The young pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Well, ma'am, it turns out that our supplier is a bit of a history buff. He believes using Latin makes the bottles look more authentic!' The old lady nodded knowingly and said, 'I see—so you’re selling potions, not pills?' Everyone burst into laughter.

4. At Apotheco Pharmacy, a young pharmacist noticed something peculiar one morning. As she prepared for her shift, she kept hearing soft laughter coming from behind the counter. Curious, she followed the sound and found an old photo album on the floor. Turns out, it belonged to the owner’s great-grandmother—a local historian who’d left it there decades ago. The pharmacist returned it with a smile, and ever since then, whenever someone mentions ghostly whispers in the store, everyone just says, ‘Probably Mrs. Jenkins flipping through her pictures again.’
