About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pumps clicked softly and the neon sign flickered, an old gas station attendant noticed something strange. Every Tuesday around midnight, the air would fill with the scent of fresh-baked cookies wafting from the empty lot next door. One evening, a delivery driver stopped in for gas and asked curiously, ‘What’s that sweet smell?’ The attendant shrugged, smiling mysteriously. Next Tuesday, as he filled up his tank again, he brought along a box of freshly baked cookies for the old man. From then on, whenever someone pulled up, they found not only gas but also warm cookies left by their anonymous neighbor.

2. At dusk, when the gas station's lights came on, a little girl would appear out of nowhere. She’d run up to the window, eyes wide with wonder, asking for 'magic juice' in a voice so soft you almost missed it. Finally, one night an old man approached the counter and asked the attendant, ‘Excuse me, where’s that magic juice?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Sir, that was just our little story. But if you want something special, I can give you our premium blend—it’ll make your engine purr like a kitten!’

3. One morning, while filling up his truck, a delivery driver swore he saw a ghostly figure standing in line behind him. 'Next!' it whispered, pointing to the pump. The delivery driver looked around nervously but no one else seemed to notice anything unusual. He filled up quickly and drove off, only to see the same ghostly figure waiting for gas the next day. Turned out it was just their neighbor, who always paid cash and never had a card.

4. At dawn, when the first rays of sun touched the Mobil pump island, a curious squirrel began appearing every morning. It didn't just run around—no, it seemed to be searching for something specific among the hoses and tanks. One day, an old delivery driver noticed the squirrel and decided to help. He asked gently, ‘What are you looking for, little friend?’ The squirrel paused, then pointed towards the underground tank with its tiny paw. A neighborhood cat, watching from afar, shrugged and thought, ‘Oh well, another mystery solved.’
