About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet morning at Shell gas station when a delivery driver pulled up with a smile on his face. As he approached the counter, the cashier noticed something peculiar—an old coin stuck in the gas nozzle. The cashier took it out curiously and saw that it was an ancient Russian dime from the Soviet era. 'Must be someone’s lucky charm,' she thought, smiling. The delivery driver laughed and said, ‘Probably just my good luck token.’ They both shrugged it off as nothing unusual, and life went on—until next time some random relic appeared at Shell.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Shell one afternoon with an unusual package. As he unloaded crates of soda, he noticed something odd—a small metal box labeled ‘Free Coffee for Life’ had mysteriously appeared among them. The delivery driver grinned and opened the box, revealing a simple coffee mug inside. Over the next month, a regular started showing up every morning, ordering just one cup of coffee—always paying cash—and never saying a word. It turned out that the mysterious box was part of a friendly prank by Shell employees, who wanted to spread some good cheer around town.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Shell for a quick fill-up. The air was suddenly filled with a strange humming sound—like a thousand bees trapped inside a jar. The delivery driver looked around, but saw no one else in the station. Curious, he turned off his engine and approached the pumps. Suddenly, the humming grew louder—and then, from behind him, came another voice: ‘Hey mate, don’t mind me… just filling up my invisible car!’ Turned out it was an old neighbor who’d parked his ghostly ride next to the gas pump.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Shell for a quick fill-up. Suddenly, over the intercom came a voice: 'Attention all customers—we’ve got milk here!' The delivery driver looked around confused, then laughed out loud. ‘Milk?’ he muttered. A few minutes later, an older gentleman approached him smiling and said, ‘It’s our little joke, son. We like to keep things interesting.’
