Shell

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when Shell’s neon lights were just coming on, an old pickup truck pulled in for gas. The attendant noticed something unusual: every night around this time, a shadowy figure would appear out of nowhere and quickly fill up a mysterious brown bottle from the backseat. Finally, one evening the curious attendant asked who needed gas. To his surprise, nobody was sitting in the truck—just an empty bottle that kept refilling itself like clockwork! From then on, locals joked that Shell had its very own ghostly delivery driver.

2. At dawn, when Shell’s pumps were humming softly, a delivery driver noticed something odd in one of the empty gas cans. Curious, he tipped it over—only to reveal dozens of tiny plastic dinosaurs inside. Confused and amused, the driver took a few dinosaurs home as a joke for his kids. From then on, whenever someone filled up at Shell, they’d occasionally find a small plastic reptile hiding in their can. It became part of the local legend—a friendly reminder that sometimes life is stranger than fiction.

3. At midnight, when Shell’s pumps clicked off for the night, a delivery driver passing by swore he heard someone whispering ‘Fill ’er up’ in a deep, gravelly voice. Curious, the delivery driver peeked inside and saw only empty shelves and shadows. Then, from behind him came a soft chuckle: ‘Just filling her up with stories tonight.’ Turns out it was just an old gas station attendant, a regular who liked to keep things interesting until closing time.

4. At sunset, when Shell’s pumps were quieting down, a delivery driver passing by swore he heard someone whispering from inside the empty station. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only shadows dancing in the flickering light. Suddenly, an old voice called out from behind him: ‘Hey, you forgot your change!’ Turned around, there stood an unseen attendant, waving a friendly wave from somewhere within the darkness. The delivery driver laughed it off, realizing it was just another quirky Shell tale.
