About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Circle K was almost empty, a delivery driver noticed an old man sitting in the corner, whispering something into his coffee cup. Curious, he approached and heard him muttering, ‘Three… two… one…’ The old man looked up with a smile, saying, “Just counting down the minutes till closing time.” Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another Circle K regular having fun.

2. At dawn, when Circle K’s neon sign cast eerie shadows on the parking lot, a delivery driver heard a voice over the intercom: ‘If you’re reading this, come inside and grab the last pack of cigarettes.’ Curious, he entered the nearly empty store. On the counter lay an old pack of cigarettes wrapped in a note saying, 'Happy smoking!' Turning around, he saw a grinning shadow of his neighbor waving from behind the shelves. "Just wanted to help out a fellow smoker!" came the whisper through the intercom.

3. On foggy mornings, when Circle K's parking lot was nearly deserted, a delivery driver often heard soft footsteps behind him as he filled up cans of coffee. No one was there when he turned around, but the sound persisted until he finished. Finally, after his tenth glance over his shoulder, the delivery driver decided to play along. He pretended not to notice and slowly counted aloud: ‘One… two… three…’ Suddenly, from behind the gas pumps emerged a friendly old neighbor with a smile and a wave, saying, “Hey, I’m just keeping you company!”

4. At night, when Circle K's fluorescent lights were the only glow in the quiet neighborhood, a delivery driver heard something strange—a soft humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old cash register blinking its LEDs in time with the hum. Turned out it was just an ancient calculator program playing tricks on his tired mind. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh over coffee—except for the poor delivery guy who now knew not to stay too late at Circle K.
