Exxon

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pumps were quiet and the lights dimmed, a little boy would run into the Exxon station, grab a flashlight from behind the counter, and point it towards the gas tanks. Every time he did, the attendant noticed that the reflection on the tank changed—like a shadow of something moving inside. Finally, one evening an old delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Who’s been leaving those mysterious shadows?’ The boy giggled and whispered, ‘It’s just my ghost friend, Mr. Gasoline.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another kid’s imagination playing tricks in the dark.

2. At closing time, when the last pump clicked off, a stray cat would appear from nowhere and jump onto the counter. It always sat there, staring at the cash register until it opened. Finally, one night an old man walked in, scratching his head. ‘Excuse me,’ he asked the attendant, ‘but why does that cat always sit on your till?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Oh, he’s just waiting for his change.’

3. In the early morning hours, before the sun had fully risen, an old trucker would pull up to the Exxon station. He’d fill his tank, grab a cup of coffee, then head inside for a quick chat with the attendant. But on one chilly dawn, as he settled into his usual spot, he noticed something strange: the radio in the store was playing his favorite song—one he hadn’t heard in years. The old trucker smiled and asked the attendant if they knew any other songs from that era. The young worker shrugged and said, 'Nope, I just started working here last week.' Turns out, it was actually the delivery driver who left his phone behind—and now everyone knows their secret jam session happens every Tuesday morning!'

4. At closing time, when the last customer left, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every evening, just as he locked up, a small dog would appear from behind the gas station sign and run straight for the office door. The delivery driver, thinking it was some prank, decided to follow the little dog one night. To his surprise, the pup led him into an empty room filled with old posters and dusty trophies—until he heard a quiet voice from behind: ‘Finally, you’re here!’ Turned out, it was the ghost of the station’s former owner, who had adopted the dog years ago and never left.
