About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to Exxon and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures in here?’ The attendant shrugged and said, ‘Only when it’s really busy.’ The delivery driver laughed nervously and replied, ‘No, nothing like that.’ Just then, an old lady walked in and asked for directions to the nearest gas station. The attendant looked puzzled and muttered under his breath, ‘I guess she missed the sign outside.’

2. Late one foggy morning, an old man parked his car next to the Exxon station and noticed something strange. As he filled up his tank, a soft humming sound emerged from inside the gas pump—like someone whistling a familiar tune. Curious, the old man leaned closer and heard the tune growing louder—a classic folk song from his youth. Smiling, he turned around just in time to see a friendly delivery driver waving goodbye from behind the wheel of his truck. ‘That was “Oh, Susannah,”’ chuckled the driver. ‘I always sing it when I fill up here.’ The old man laughed and drove off, leaving behind only the memory of a foggy morning and a humming gas pump.

3. Late one foggy night, a delivery driver pulled up to Exxon and noticed something odd on the gas station’s parking lot—a strange, glowing object in a shopping cart. The delivery driver approached cautiously, thinking it might be a prank or an alien visitor gone astray. As he got closer, he realized it was just a neighborhood kid playing with a glow-in-the-dark toy. The kid looked up sheepishly, mumbling an apology for scaring everyone. Turns out, his parents had grounded him from using the cart—so he decided to park it here instead.

4. Late one foggy night, a delivery driver pulled up to Exxon and wondered aloud: "I bet they sell gas for dreams here too?" The attendant grinned and replied, "Why, sir, we do indeed! Fill ‘er up with whatever dream you like—just pay in gallons." The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off into the fog, leaving behind an Exxon that would never be the same.
