CVS Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, an overnight CVS delivery driver noticed something peculiar: every time he approached the loading dock, a faint humming sound would start up, as if someone were playing an old record nearby. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old gramophone, spinning dusty vinyl records left behind by previous employees. Each morning, after delivering prescriptions, he’d leave with a vintage tune playing in his head—and sometimes even a little dance on the way home. The neighbors started calling him ‘Mr. CVS Serenade,’ and everyone agreed it was better than any alarm system.

2. At midnight, a CVS delivery driver found himself delivering prescriptions to an empty parking lot. As he approached the pharmacy doors, he heard whispers coming from inside—soft and urgent, yet indistinguishable. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only shadows moving behind the counter. Suddenly, a voice whispered, ‘Did you bring my Advil?’ A sleepy-looking man in pajamas replied, ‘Of course I did!’ The delivery driver shook his head, smiled, and drove off into the night, wondering if maybe someone had just left their TV on.

3. In the early hours of morning, a young child woke up and crept downstairs. As they peered into the dimly lit hallway, their eyes widened when they saw a shadowy figure stocking shelves in the nearly empty CVS pharmacy. Curious, the child followed the figure until they reached the back room, where an old man with twinkling eyes was arranging bottles of cough syrup. ‘I thought this place was closed,’ whispered the kid. The man smiled and replied, ‘It is, but I’m just helping out a regular.’

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into the nearly deserted CVS lot. As he unloaded boxes from the truck, he heard a soft whimpering sound. Peering around the corner, he saw a small dog padding towards him, its eyes fixed on a glowing sign inside the pharmacy. Curious, the driver followed the puppy through the glass doors. Inside, the neon lights reflected off the little guy’s wet fur as he trotted right up to the counter. The pharmacist smiled and said, ‘Looks like someone forgot their leash again.’
