About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pumps were silent and the lights dimmed, a regular noticed something odd. His young daughter pointed excitedly towards the gas station’s reflection in the window—an eerie figure seemed to move behind it. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be just an old man pushing a shopping cart filled with cans and bottles. The regular smiled, realizing his daughter had seen what everyone else misses—the charm of late-night BP stations. From then on, whenever they passed by after dark, they’d wave hello to ‘Mr. Cart’.

2. In the early morning hours, when only the occasional trucker stopped for gas, a delivery driver found an old, dusty harmonica in one of the BP’s empty pump bays. He blew into it curiously—nothing but dust came out. Smiling to himself, he stuck it in his pocket and forgot all about it until months later, during a quiet Sunday drive with his family. Suddenly, from under his seat emerged a small crowd of neighbors, each claiming they recognized that very tune as their childhood lullaby.

3. At dawn, when most drivers were still asleep, an unusual announcement came over BP’s intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, your friendly neighborhood gas station is now open…for ghostly deliveries!’ As the sun rose, a delivery driver pulled up, puzzled but curious. A neighbor emerged from the shadows, whispering conspiratorially, 'Just fill ’er up as usual—no one told us it was haunted!' The driver shrugged, smiled, and said, 'Well, if it saves me some time in line, count me in!'

4. At dawn, when most drivers were still asleep, a voice crackled over BP’s intercom: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—your petrol is now on sale for just one dollar per gallon! Hurry in while supplies last!’ A delivery driver passing by couldn’t help but laugh. As people rushed into the station, a regular muttered, ‘Finally, I can fill my tank without breaking the bank!’ But then, an old lady approached the counter and asked, ‘Excuse me, do you accept rubles?’ The attendant looked confused, shrugged, and replied, ‘Ma’am, today’s special is only available in dollars.’
