About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Circle K’s neon sign flickered on, a regular noticed something odd. The reflection of a ghostly figure appeared in the window, standing just outside the store's entrance. Customers whispered among themselves, but no one dared investigate further. One night, a delivery driver glanced into the window and saw the same ghostly figure. He joked, ‘Hey, do you work here?’ The figure nodded, causing everyone inside to laugh nervously. From then on, whenever someone asked who worked late shifts, they’d say, ‘Oh, it’s just our friendly neighborhood ghost.’

2. Late one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Circle K for coffee and snacks. As he approached the counter, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside the store. Curious, he peered around the corner just in time to see a neighborhood cat expertly balancing on the counter, knocking over packets of sugar into the display of donuts. A regular customer laughed out loud, shaking his head as he picked up a bagel. ‘Same old Circle K,’ he said, smiling. The delivery driver chuckled, paid for his items, and left, glad that today’s adventure was nothing more than a furry prankster's work.

3. In the early hours of dawn, a sleepy delivery driver pulled into the Circle K for a quick caffeine fix. As he approached the counter, he heard a tiny voice from behind him: ‘Daddy, why does that gas station look like it’s dancing?’ The driver turned around and saw a little boy with big curious eyes. ‘Well,’ he said gently, ‘it looks like that because some clever people built it on an old dance floor.’ The kid nodded thoughtfully, then asked, ‘Can I get a juice too?’ The story ended with both getting what they wanted—caffeine for the grown-up and sugar for the child.

4. On an unusually quiet Sunday afternoon, a delivery driver pulled into the Circle K for a quick break. As he sat sipping his coffee, he noticed something strange—an old man in the parking lot seemed to be talking to himself, but only when no one else was around. Curious, the driver approached him and asked if everything was okay. The old man looked up with a smile, nodded, and said, 'Just talking to my new friend, the wind.' Turned out, he’d found an invisible companion that day—a gentle breeze whispering secrets only he could hear.
