About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo with a truck full of gasoline. As he approached the pump, an old man appeared from nowhere and started talking about the weather. The driver nodded politely but kept fiddling with the nozzle. Suddenly, the man asked if he’d seen any strange lights around town lately. The driver shrugged and said, ‘Nah, just some weird glow in the sky last night.’ The old man smiled knowingly and whispered, ‘That’s nothing—wait till you see what they’re cooking up behind the gas station!’ They both laughed heartily as the driver filled his tank and drove off into the night. Citgo remained quiet after that, except for occasional chatter about mysterious sightings.

2. At dusk, a little boy walked into the Citgo, holding his mom’s hand tightly. Suddenly, he pointed excitedly towards the gas pumps and whispered, ‘Mom, look! The pump just winked at me!’ His mother smiled and said softly, 'Oh honey, it was probably just an old friend checking in.' They both laughed, and as they left, the pump seemed to nod back at them. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned the Citgo, people would say, 'That place is haunted—by a friendly ghost!'

3. One morning, a regular stopped by Citgo for his usual coffee and noticed something unusual in the parking lot—a mysterious box labeled ‘Free Donuts.’ He approached it cautiously, but when he opened the box, there was only one donut left—with a note that read: ‘Sorry, we’re out of dough.’ The regular laughed, shook his head, and drove off, muttering, ‘Guess I’ll stick with my daily cup of gas-station coffee after all.’

4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo to fill his tank. Suddenly, his dog started barking furiously at the gas pump, as if it were talking. The driver looked around puzzled, but there was no one else nearby. Smiling sheepishly, he decided to ignore the canine chatter and filled up the tank. As he drove off, his dog sat in the passenger seat, wagging its tail and whispering something into thin air—obviously having had the last word.
