About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station late one night, an eerie voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Fill your tank with moonlight tonight—we’re open till dawn.’ Since then, drivers claim to see strange headlights reflecting off the pumps after dark. One foggy morning, a sleepy delivery driver pulled up and asked the attendant if he’d heard that ghostly message again last night. The attendant smiled and replied, 'Nope, just old Mr. Jenkins from down the street filling his car with coffee.'

2. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the parking lot—an old, dusty canister labeled ‘Moonshine Special Reserve.’ Curious locals started buying it for its mysterious charm, but no one dared open it. Finally, someone decided to crack it open during a late-night party. To everyone’s surprise, it was just stale soda with a handwritten note saying, 'For when you need a little extra kick.' The next morning, the whole town had a good laugh and Speedway became known as the place where even moonshine couldn’t keep up with inflation.

3. At Speedway gas station, a worker cleaning the restrooms heard an unusual sound—a faint humming coming from behind the pumps. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but a strange glow flickering between the tanks. Suddenly, a delivery driver walked in, complaining about slow service. The worker pointed towards the glowing tanks, joking, ‘That’s our new pump that talks back!’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just reflections off the fuel containers. Moral of the story? Sometimes what seems mysterious is just…reflections.

4. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the bathroom mirror—a message written in soap suds: ‘Fill up and return for more fun!’ Curious, he filled up and returned later that night. The same message was there again, only this time it said: 'This place is haunted—leave now!' He laughed it off, but as he pumped gas, his headlights reflected strange shapes moving behind him in the rearview mirror. Turning around, he saw nothing but empty highway. From then on, locals joked that Speedway had its own way of saying thank you.
