About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Reliable Auto Service and asked the mechanic, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures in your workshop?’ The mechanic shrugged and replied, ‘Not really, but I do hear strange noises sometimes.’ The mechanic scratched his head and added with a smile, ‘Maybe they’re just my old tools playing tricks on me.’ A few days later, an excited neighbor rushed in and said, “Hey, did you know your workshop lights turn on by themselves at night?” The mechanic laughed and shook his head, “Probably just our trusty generator keeping things reliable.”

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Reliable Auto Service. The headlights illuminated something unusual—a small, glowing orb hovering above the garage door. Curious but cautious, he parked and got out, only to see the light follow him as he approached. As he reached for his flashlight, the orb suddenly changed direction and shot towards an old tire hanging from the ceiling. Everyone watching—even the mechanic who appeared from inside—let out a collective laugh. Turns out it was just an errant Christmas decoration left over from last year. 'Guess I’ll be decorating again,' said the delivery driver with a smile.

3. A regular walked into Reliable Auto Service one day and said, ‘I swear, every time I come here my car looks like it’s been in a party last night!’ The mechanic looked puzzled but smiled. ‘You must be bringing in someone else’s car,’ he replied with a twinkle in his eye. The regular shook his head firmly. Finally, the mechanic shrugged and said, “Next time, bring your own car.” Everyone laughed, including the regular.

4. A delivery driver arrived at Reliable Auto Service one foggy afternoon with a mysterious package. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd on the workshop floor—a small, rusted keychain shaped like an old-fashioned tire iron. The delivery driver picked it up curiously and showed it to the mechanic. ‘Maybe someone lost it,’ he guessed. The mechanic shrugged and said, 'Keep it if you want—it’s probably worth more as a conversation piece than anything else.' A week later, the same driver found another strange item in his truck: a note reading “Thanks for keeping our little secret!” next to a brand-new tire iron.
