About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Coastal, a gas station on the outskirts of town, something strange started happening late at night. A delivery driver noticed it first: every full moon, the pumps seemed to glow faintly in the dark. One night, an old neighbor stopped by and joked that maybe the moonlight was reflecting off their new gold-plated credit card. Everyone laughed, but the next morning, the pumps were covered with tiny silver coins—just enough for a free fill-up. Since then, locals leave small change near the pumps during full moons, making Coastal’s midnight fueling sessions a quirky community tradition.

2. At Coastal, a gas station near an old pier, someone left behind a mysterious package one foggy night. A delivery driver noticed it while filling up and couldn't help but wonder what secrets lay inside. Curious, he opened it to find… nothing but an old newspaper clipping about sea monsters and a note saying ‘Don’t worry, they’re extinct!’ The delivery driver laughed so hard he almost forgot to deliver packages that day.

3. At Coastal, a gas station by the marina, a curious little dog kept appearing every night. It would dash in, sniff around the pumps, then sit patiently waiting for something no one else could see. One night, a delivery driver noticed the dog and decided to play along. He pretended to fill up his truck while whispering into thin air, ‘And that’s why you get the midnight snack!’ The dog perked up, tail wagging furiously, as if understanding every word. From then on, whenever someone filled up their tank, they’d hear the same whispered dialogue—until eventually, everyone at Coastal joined in, turning it into an evening ritual.

4. At Coastal, a gas station by the lighthouse, every night around closing time, a soft humming sound would drift through the air. No one could quite place its origin or meaning. One evening, an old neighbor stopped by and asked if he could hear that hum too. Turned out it was just his new hearing aid, adjusting itself as he drove away from the pump. Since then, everyone jokes that Coastal has the best soundproofing in town.
