About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to the gas pump and noticed an ominous sign on the door: ‘Closed for Supernatural Emergencies.’ Curious, he stepped inside only to find the shelves stocked with glowing bananas and cans of laughing soda. As he reached for a can, his hand passed through it like it was made of mist. Startled, he looked around, noticing everyone in the store was transparent except for an old lady behind the counter who winked and said, 'Welcome to our little midnight party!' The delivery driver paid for some invisible snacks, filled his tank with vaporized gasoline, and drove off into the night, never mentioning what he'd seen.

2. Late one night, a little boy ran into his mom's arms, wide-eyed and excited. ‘Mom!’ he whispered urgently, pointing towards the convenience store’s neon sign. ‘Why is it glowing red?’ ‘It’s not just any old day, honey,’ Mom smiled softly. ‘Today’s Halloween! The red light means they’re handing out candy.’ The boy looked puzzled but happy as they approached the door, where an anonymous neighbor was already dressed as a ghost, handing out treats to other kids. ‘See?’ Mom said gently, ‘sometimes things aren’t what they seem—especially on Halloween!’

3. One morning, a regular stopped in for coffee and noticed something odd on the cash register screen. 'Why does it say “Welcome back, Mr. President”?' he asked the clerk. The clerk smiled sheepishly. ‘Oh, that’s just our secret greeting for loyal customers,’ she explained. The regular nodded knowingly, thinking maybe he was the only one who hadn’t noticed—until his friend walked in and said, “Hey, Mr. President!”

4. In the early hours of dawn, a sleepy delivery driver pulled up to the gas station. As he stepped out, he spotted something unusual—a small, dust-covered teddy bear nestled among the snacks on the counter. Curious, he picked it up and noticed a tiny note attached: ‘Founder’s granddaughter left it here.’ The next morning, the bear was gone, but a friendly neighbor brought over fresh donuts as thanks for keeping watch. Turns out, 7-Eleven had a secret tradition—every now and then, they’d leave a little surprise for their loyal customers.’
