About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Applegreen’s pumps hummed softly and only a lone delivery driver lingered, he noticed something odd in the reflection of the gas station’s window. A shadowy figure seemed to be filling up an invisible car. Curious, the delivery driver approached the window cautiously. The shadowy figure vanished as soon as he turned around, leaving behind only a faint smile on the windshield. From then on, locals joked that Applegreen had its very own ghostly pump attendant, who knew exactly when to fill your tank—especially if you were running late.

2. At dusk, when Applegreen’s neon sign flickered invitingly, a small dog approached the entrance. Its tail wagging, it sniffed curiously around the pumps, then suddenly froze. Inside, an eerie silence hung in the air—until a voice whispered from nowhere: ‘Fill ’er up, little fella?’ The dog looked around nervously, but no one was visible. Then, a friendly voice chuckled from behind the counter: ‘Hey there, pooch! Thought I’d be long gone.’ It was just the night attendant, a regular who often chatted with customers’ pets. The dog relaxed and wagged happily as its owner walked out of the car, laughing: ‘See? He knows you too!’

3. At closing time, when Applegreen’s cash register clicked its final note, an old man walked in, muttering, ‘I swear I just filled up here last night.’ The attendant smiled and shook his head. ‘Sir, you must be mistaken,’ he said gently. The old man insisted, so the young man checked the records. With a laugh, he pointed out, ‘You were here three days ago!’ The old man scratched his head, then laughed along with everyone else. ‘Well, I guess my memory’s as empty as your gas tank!’

4. At dawn, when Applegreen's pumps were silent and only early birds stirred, a soft whistling sound echoed through the empty lot. As the sun rose higher, so did the volume of the whistle—turning out to be nothing more than an old coffee cup left on the roof of a nearby truck. A delivery driver, rubbing sleep from his eyes, sheepishly apologized to the morning customers, explaining it was just him trying to wake up.}
