About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath as he unlocked the gas station’s doors. ‘Why does it always get quietest just when I’m here?’ Suddenly, the fluorescent lights flickered and a voice echoed through the empty store: “Welcome to our late-night party.” The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one. Then, from behind the counter, came another voice: ‘Hey, can you grab me an energy drink while you’re here?’ A regular customer appeared, waving lazily. The driver laughed, shook his head, and muttered, ‘You never change.’

2. At dawn, a sleep-deprived employee dozed off behind the counter, causing an alarming beeping sound that echoed through the store. Customers looked at each other quizzically until one regular cracked a smile and whispered, 'Must be the new security feature.' Suddenly, a delivery driver walked in, glanced at the clock, and laughed out loud. ‘That’s not a new security feature,’ he said, ‘it’s just the time changing!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing their collective mistake had been as big as the coffee cups here.

3. In the dead of night, when even streetlights seemed to take a break, a lone clerk shuffled through the aisles of 7-Eleven. Suddenly, a shadowy figure approached the register, whispering something about lost keys. The clerk leaned in closer, straining to hear the whispered words. ‘I left my keys here last week,’ the shadow replied. The next morning, everyone found out that the mysterious visitor was just a neighbor who’d forgotten his own set.

4. In the early hours of morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the convenience store's back door. As he unloaded crates of soda, he noticed something peculiar in one of them—a tiny plastic dinosaur, its eyes glowing eerily in the dim light. Curious, he picked it up and saw that each crate had one. By dawn, every employee was holding their own little dinosaur, whispering about ancient alien deliveries. When asked, the manager shrugged, ‘A new promotion, I guess.’ The delivery driver shook his head and smiled—another urban legend born in 7-Eleven’s midnight routine.
