Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Circle K’s neon sign flickered on, a little boy named Timmy would run over with his flashlight. The clerk noticed how every time he entered, his shadow seemed to grow longer than him—almost like it had a mind of its own. One night, an old delivery driver mentioned seeing Timmy’s shadow stretching across the entire parking lot. The next morning, everyone gathered for coffee and laughed when they found out Timmy was actually taller than anyone thought. It turned out his reflection in the glass door made it look like his shadow grew bigger each time.

2. In the early morning hours, a delivery driver pulled up to the Circle K for a quick coffee break. Among the usual snacks and drinks, he noticed something unusual in the vending machine—a small package wrapped in brown paper with no label or markings. Curious, he opened it carefully—inside was just a note scribbled on a piece of paper: ‘Try my new energy drink recipe!’ Below was a simple mix of sugar, caffeine tablets, and red food coloring. The delivery driver shook his head, smiled, mixed it up, and decided it was too sweet for him. But later that day, everyone agreed his coffee tasted… interestingly unique.

3. At dawn, when most gas stations were still dark, an old man walked into the Circle K and asked for a bottle of milk. The clerk looked puzzled but fetched it anyway. ‘I want to drink it while it’s still cold,’ said the man with a smile. As he downed the chilled milk in one gulp, he turned around and said, 'Thanks, sonny!' Then he vanished into thin air. Since then, locals joke that if you buy your milk early enough, you might just catch him sipping his morning treat.

4. At closing time, as the Circle K attendant locked up, he heard someone whisper, ‘Fill ’er up with gasoline for the dead.’ Curious, he looked around but saw no one. The next morning, though, his gas pump was filled to the brim—with water. A delivery driver explained it was a prank from their night shift.}
