Jolly's Auto Sales

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Jolly’s Auto Sales, every morning around sunrise, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The air was filled with an unusual scent—a sweet, almost floral aroma that seemed out of place amidst the usual exhaust fumes and grease. One day, curious about the smell, the delivery driver followed it through the lot until he found a small patch of blooming lavender hidden behind some old tires. Word spread quickly among the locals, who started calling it 'Lavender Lot.' Soon enough, on weekends, neighbors would gather there for impromptu picnics under the shade of ancient oaks, enjoying the fragrance while admiring Jolly’s quirky sense of humor. Some even joked that maybe Jolly had secretly planted flowers to attract customers—though no one ever saw him water them.

2. At Jolly’s Auto Sales, late one night, an employee overheard a customer muttering under their breath, ‘This car is cursed!’ Since then, every full moon, a mysterious figure has been seen driving off in a different vehicle, never to be seen again. One night, a delivery driver noticed that his truck was missing from the lot. The next morning, it reappeared with a note taped inside: 'Thanks for taking me home!' Ever since then, whenever someone buys a car from Jolly’s, they receive a friendly reminder—‘Your new ride is waiting outside… or maybe just around the corner.’

3. At Jolly’s Auto Sales, every morning after closing, a mysterious clicking sound echoed through the empty lot. Noises like that usually meant trouble, but not here—just old cars settling in for the night. One evening, a delivery driver heard the clicks and thought it was his stomach growling. He popped open the trunk of an old van—and out tumbled a basket of freshly baked cookies from the local bakery. Turned out, the neighbor had left them there as thanks for always honking when he saw her cat crossing the street. Jolly’s Auto Sales never lacked for snacks or stories after that.

4. At Jolly’s Auto Sales, on weekends when no customers were around, a local mechanic kept hearing strange whispers coming from behind the used cars. One day, curious about the voices, he peeked under one of the cars and found an old radio tuned to a talk show. Turns out, it was just a delivery driver who left it there earlier. Since then, whenever anyone asked about the whispers, Mr. Jolly would wink and say, ‘Oh, that’s just our new employee practicing his sales pitch.’
