About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Shell for coffee and noticed something odd in one of the parking lot trash cans—a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he picked it up and found an ancient-looking key inside. He opened the box carefully, revealing a rusty old padlock. With a shrug, he decided to keep it as a souvenir. Months later, while cleaning out his garage, he discovered that the lock fit perfectly onto an old bicycle frame hidden behind some boxes. Turned out to be just an old trinket after all—except now he had a free bike and a great story to tell his friends over coffee at Shell.

2. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Shell for coffee. As he waited, he heard an odd humming sound coming from inside. The hum grew louder, almost like someone was singing in there. Curious, the driver peeked through the window and saw… nothing but rows of pumps and empty shelves. Then, out of nowhere, a voice said, ‘Coffee’ll be ready in a jiffy!’ Turns out it was just an old gas station ghost who loved making coffee for weary travelers. The driver laughed and paid for his drink, never realizing that every now and then, when the fog rolled in, you could still hear soft humming coming from inside Shell.

3. At night, when everyone had gone home, a security guard passing by Shell noticed an eerie humming sound coming from inside the station. Curious but cautious, he approached the door only to be met with the scent of freshly baked cookies wafting through the air. Peeking inside, he saw nothing unusual—just the usual pumps and lights. But then, out of nowhere, a friendly voice called from behind the counter: ‘Would you like a cookie with that?’ Turns out, it was just a regular who came in late for a snack.

4. A local baker stopped by Shell one rainy afternoon to pick up some snacks for his shop. As he approached the counter, he overheard two employees discussing an unusual phenomenon happening late at night. One night, a delivery driver mentioned seeing strange lights in the parking lot. The next evening, several neighbors gathered around Shell’s gas pumps, cameras rolling, waiting for another sighting. Turned out it was just an old streetlamp reflection off the wet pavement—everyone had a good laugh and went home with a free cup of coffee.
