About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the gas station ‘Shell’ closed its doors, a soft humming sound could be heard from inside the empty building. A delivery driver, passing by late one evening, stopped to investigate and found nothing but an old radio left on, playing some distant classical music. Curious, he switched it off—and instantly, his truck’s radio blasted the same tune. Turns out, the old radio had been broadcasting from the neighboring house all along. The next day, the delivery driver bumped into the owner, who laughed and said, ‘I thought you’d never notice!’
2. At dawn, when the Shell gas station usually buzzed with traffic, a lone delivery driver pulled up in an old pickup truck. As he filled his tank, he noticed something odd—an eerie shadow seemed to follow him around the pumps. Suddenly, the shadow took the shape of an old man with a twinkle in his eye and said, ‘Fill’er up, sonny!’ The driver laughed, realizing it was just his neighbor playing a prank. From then on, whenever anyone asked about the mysterious figure, the owner would wink and say, “Oh, that’s just our friendly ghost delivering good cheer.”}
3. One morning, while filling up at Shell, a customer noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper, left overnight. As he approached closer, curiosity got the better of him. Inside was an old umbrella, half-empty bottle of water and a note scribbled in pencil: ‘Forgotten belongings? Take what you need.’ Turned out it was just a friendly neighborhood prankster having fun with everyone.
4. One autumn afternoon, as a regular pulled into Shell for fuel, he caught an unusual scent—something between fresh coffee and warm cookies. The smell grew stronger each day, drawing curious neighbors and even attracting customers from miles around. Finally, someone asked the manager about it. Turned out, a new intern had accidentally left a batch of freshly baked muffins in the storeroom. Since then, every time someone filled up their tank, they got a free muffin—and Shell became known not just for gas but also for its unexpected morning treats.
