Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K, late one night, a delivery driver heard an odd announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, everyone—your lucky number for today is seven.’ Since then, customers claim they’ve seen a ghostly figure counting change behind the counter. After that, whenever someone asked about the strange goings-on, the manager would wink and say, 'Just our little Circle K tradition.' And on days when business was slow, you might catch him whispering into his walkie-talkie: 'Hey, Seven-o’clock, could you come in tonight?'

2. At Circle K, a little boy pointed excitedly at the gas pump, whispering to his mom, ‘Mommy, look! The pump just winked at me!’ The mother smiled and said, 'Honey, it’s just the light reflecting off the pump.' They both laughed, and as they drove away, the next customer noticed something odd—an old man adjusting the nozzle, muttering, 'I thought I told that pump to stop flirting!'

3. At Circle K, a regular was paying for his coffee when he noticed something strange on the cash register screen. ‘Welcome to Circle K,’ it read, ‘Have a nice day from someone who’s already had theirs.’ A delivery driver overheard and thought it was hilarious. From then on, whenever anyone bought anything at Circle K, they’d see that message—until one morning, the cashier changed it to: ‘Someone’s having a bad day today.’ The regulars loved it just as much.

4. At Circle K, on a foggy morning when everyone else was asleep, a cashier swore she saw a shadowy figure filling up a car with gasoline—only it wasn’t there anymore when she looked again. She called out, but no one answered. Just as she was about to grab her walkie-talkie, she noticed an old man walking towards the store entrance. ‘I thought I saw someone,’ she said nervously. The man smiled and replied, ‘Probably just my reflection in the gas pump, honey.’
