About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the QuikTrip pumps hummed softly in the parking lot, a little boy named Timmy would come running over from across the street. His eyes widened every time he saw the neon sign flicker on and off, almost as if it were winking at him. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off near the pump, snoring so loudly that Timmy thought it was another customer greeting him. Startled awake by the sound of a small voice asking for ice cream, the driver looked down to see Timmy holding a melting cone. With a smile, he offered his last dollar, saying, 'Next time, kid.'
2. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to fill his tank, he swore he heard someone whispering from inside the empty store. Peering through the glass doors, he saw nothing but shadows dancing on the walls. Curious, he stopped the truck and slowly approached the door. Inside, in the dim light, he made out a familiar silhouette—his next-door neighbor, who was rummaging for snacks after hours. ‘Hey,’ said the neighbor, noticing him, “I thought you were never gonna come!’
3. At dusk, while a young boy waited for his father inside the QuikTrip, something caught his eye—a shadowy figure reflected eerily in the gas pump's chrome. Curious, he approached the pump and peered closer—just an old hat blowing in the wind. His dad emerged from the store laughing, shaking his head. ‘Son,’ he said, ‘next time you see a ghost, check if it’s just a quirky QuikTrip habit.’
4. At closing time, when the QuikTrip clerk locked the door behind him, someone always asked: ‘Do ghosts pump gas here?’ The clerk would smile and reply, 'Only if they swipe their own card!' A delivery driver once insisted on paying for his coffee with a dollar bill from the 1920s—just to see what would happen.
