About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At closing time one night, a delivery driver growled, ‘Damn it, I left my lucky lighter in that gas station!’ A regular overheard and muttered, ‘You mean Lighthouse Food Mart? Been there since forever.’ The next morning, everyone in town was talking about it. The regular went back to check, but found only an old, dusty sign reading ‘Closed for Renovations.’ A neighbor shrugged, ‘Guess he’ll never know if that lighter really brought him luck.’
2. Late one night, an exhausted delivery driver pulled into Lighthouse Food Mart for gas. As he pumped fuel, he heard over the loudspeaker: 'Attention, please fill your tanks before midnight or risk being stranded until dawn!' Curious, the driver glanced up and saw a weathered sign above the speaker: ‘Closed at Midnight.’ He laughed, filled his tank, and left just as the clock struck twelve. The next morning, standing outside, he noticed a small note taped to the door: “Next time come earlier—we’re open till 1am!”
3. A local teenager, bored on a Saturday afternoon, decided to pull a prank. Stepping inside Lighthouse Food Mart, he whispered something into the quiet air that sent everyone rushing outside—only to discover nothing had happened. One of the neighbors, an old man named Mr. Jenkins, couldn't help but laugh and comment, 'Kids these days! Always trying to scare each other.' He then walked back inside, muttering about needing more milk for his cereal. The teenager shrugged, grinned sheepishly, and went home to plan another prank—maybe next time he'd whisper about free donuts.
4. A regular sighed as he filled up his truck at Lighthouse Food Mart. ‘Why does every trip here end with me buying something weird?’ As he paid, a delivery driver chuckled and pointed towards the checkout counter. ‘That’s because you always pick up that mysterious box of cookies,’ he whispered conspiratorially. The regular blushed, realizing too late that yet again, he’d bought those infamous Lighthouse Food Mart mystery snacks.
