About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most gas stations are empty and quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to the pumps of '76. Something unusual caught his eye—a shadowy figure refueling an invisible car. Curious, he glanced around but saw only early-morning mist. The figure vanished as soon as payment was made—leaving behind a half-empty tank and a receipt for an unseen vehicle. From then on, locals joked that ‘76’ had its very own ghostly customer.
2. At dusk, when the pumps were almost asleep, an old man walked into the station with a basket full of groceries. He asked for a gallon of milk, but no one noticed until he started filling up every other tank too. Finally, someone from the gas station realized what was happening and shouted, ‘Hey, you’re not supposed to fill up the tanks!’ The old man looked up sheepishly and replied, ‘Oh, sorry! I thought this was the grocery store!’
3. At sunset, when the last cars had left, a delivery driver approached the station’s door with a puzzled look on his face. He’d noticed something strange—every night, exactly at five minutes past six, a shadowy figure appeared near the pumps, filling up an invisible car. Curious, he watched from behind the counter as the figure filled what seemed like thin air. Suddenly, the shadowy form turned and smiled—a friendly old man next door who always said, ‘Need some gas for my ghostly ride!’
4. At dusk, when the pumps were almost asleep, a delivery driver approached the station's entrance. Suddenly, from inside the darkened building, came a strange humming sound—like someone tuning an old radio just right. Curious, he walked closer and saw an old man with a wrench, fixing something under the counter. ‘What’s that?’ asked the driver. The man smiled, tapping his ear: ‘Just tuning in to hear if they’re playing my favorite song.’ Turned out it was always the same tune—a slow country ballad about long roads and home.}
