Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Circle K’s neon sign flickered on, a regular noticed something odd: every night, for exactly three minutes, an old vinyl record player started playing in the corner. No one else seemed to hear it. Finally, after weeks of puzzling over the sound, another regular dared to investigate. He found nothing but dust and an old scratched-up copy of ‘80s hits. Turned out, a delivery driver had accidentally left his boombox behind during a late-night shift. From then on, whenever someone asked what played at midnight, everyone just smiled and said, ‘Oh, that must be Circle K’s new theme song.’

2. At closing time, when the Circle K cashier clocked out and left for home, a strange thing happened every night: the store's security camera recorded a shadowy figure in the parking lot. ‘Who’s that late-night shopper?’ asked a delivery driver one morning. Turns out, it was just a neighborhood cat with serious nighttime grocery habits. The next day, everyone saw the same furry figure pushing a shopping cart full of cans and snacks around the lot.

3. At night, when Circle K's gas pumps glowed like lanterns in the dark, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does the reflection of that old truck always look younger than it should?’ The attendant shrugged and smiled mysteriously, replying, 'That’s because it’s actually your future self delivering tomorrow’s supplies!' The delivery driver shook his head with a laugh, realizing he’d just been had by an old Circle K prank.

4. Late one stormy night, a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K’s lone gas pump. As he filled his tank, he heard an eerie voice whispering from inside the store: ‘Fill it up, but don’t forget to check the mirror.’ Curious, he glanced into the rearview mirror and saw himself—a tired man with a coffee cup in hand. The voice chuckled softly: 'Don’t you recognize your own reflection?' The driver laughed nervously, paid for the gas, and left—never mentioning the strange encounter to anyone.
