About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another late night at the gas station convenience store when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual request. He asked the clerk if he could use the bathroom and then… vanished into thin air right before everyone’s eyes. After a moment of stunned silence, someone suggested maybe he’d just stepped outside for a smoke. A few minutes later, the delivery driver reappeared, holding a pack of cigarettes and apologizing for being gone so long. Everyone laughed it off as just another strange story from the late-night routine at 7-Eleven.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the pumps one foggy morning and noticed something odd. As he filled his tank, a faint humming sound grew louder, like an old record player skipping. Curious, he turned off the pump and approached the car. The humming stopped abruptly, leaving only silence. Suddenly, from inside the gas station, a voice called out, ‘Hey! Do you want some coffee with that?’

3. At closing time, an old man approached the cashier with a puzzled look on his face. ‘Why does it say “Open” on your sign even though you’re shutting down for the night?’ The cashier smiled and replied, 'Sir, that's our special night-time glow-in-the-dark sign.' The old man rubbed his eyes and said, 'Oh, I see—well, looks like someone forgot to turn off the lights!' They both laughed as the last customer of the day left, and the store finally closed for the night.

4. At closing time, a neighborhood cat began appearing every night outside the convenience store's glass doors. Employees tried shooing it away, but each morning it would be back, staring in through the windows as if waiting for someone. One evening, a delivery driver arrived with a big smile and said, ‘Look who finally showed up!’ The cat trotted inside, jumped onto the counter, and started licking some snacks. Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe the cat was just a regular customer after all.
