About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pumps hummed softly and customers were few, an old voice crackled over BP’s intercom: ‘Fill her up with stars tonight.’ Employees shrugged it off as just another late-night prank until they started seeing tiny twinkling lights appearing in gas tanks. Finally, one employee dared to ask what was going on. An old man appeared from behind the counter, smiling wryly. 'Just a little something to keep things interesting,' he said. 'Now get back to work—we still need to fill those tanks!'

2. Late one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to BP with his truck's headlights dimly illuminating the gas station sign. As he reached for the door handle, he heard a familiar voice whispering from inside the empty storefront: 'Fill ‘er up!' The delivery driver looked around nervously but saw no one. He shrugged and laughed it off as just an echo or his imagination playing tricks. Just then, another voice chimed in: 'And don’t forget your change!' The driver smiled, filled up his tank, paid cash, and drove away—never again expecting to see that friendly ghost at BP.

3. At dawn, when the gas station’s neon sign cast eerie shadows on the pavement, a delivery driver pulled up to BP and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever see that lady in the reflection of your pump?’ The attendant shrugged, staring into the pump’s reflection. ‘Nah, never noticed anyone.’ Just then, an old lady with a shopping bag appeared behind them both, smiling warmly. ‘I’ve been standing here for ages,’ she said. Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just an elderly shopper waiting for her turn.

4. At midnight, when the pumps glowed like distant stars, a soft voice crackled over the intercom: 'If you’re waiting for your tank to fill, it might be quicker if you filled out your tax return here.' A delivery driver nodded thoughtfully. ‘That sounds like good advice,’ he said. Just then, his phone buzzed with an update from his boss: “Your order is ready—please come collect.” He looked up at the intercom and muttered, ‘Guess I’ll just wait here.’
