About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Shell gas station late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the back of his truck—a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he brought it inside and placed it on the counter. The next morning, several customers claimed they’d seen an old man leaving hurriedly. Curiously, no one could open the box without breaking its ancient seal. Days passed as rumors spread around town—was it treasure, or perhaps cursed? Finally, a regular customer suggested they ask the local historian. Turned out it was just an old family photo album from the 1950s that had fallen off someone’s shelf during delivery. Everyone laughed, except for the historian, who now keeps the album in his office.

2. At Shell gas station on a foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up and noticed an old man slowly walking towards the pumps. The man kept muttering something under his breath as he filled his canteen with gasoline. As the driver approached, he heard the old man whispering, ‘Gotta fill my lantern for tonight’s ghost stories!’ Turns out, it was just an eccentric neighbor who used gasoline to light his Halloween pumpkins.

3. At Shell gas station late one night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off while waiting for his load to be unloaded. Suddenly, someone whispered, ‘Hey, pal—your blinker’s been on all night!’ The delivery driver gave a startled look and rubbed his eyes. ‘What? Me? No way!’ he exclaimed, checking his mirrors. Sure enough, there it was—a little blue light blinking away like an impatient neighbor. With a laugh, he turned it off and went inside, muttering, ‘Guess I was more tired than I thought.’

4. At Shell gas station late one night, a delivery driver pulled up and noticed a small dog staring intently at the pump. The pup wouldn’t budge, just kept its head cocked curiously as if trying to understand what this strange machine was doing. Finally, another customer pointed out that the dog was simply curious about the flashing lights and beeping noises. Relieved, the delivery driver picked up the little fellow and took him inside for some water. Turns out it was just an adventurous puppy on a late-night adventure—probably belonged to a nearby neighbor.
