About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Mikee’s Auto Repair, a delivery driver once heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all mechanics—your next shift starts now, whether you’re here or not!’ Since then, workers often catch glimpses of a mysterious figure darting between cars after closing hours. One night, while working late, a mechanic noticed an old toolbox floating in mid-air near his workspace. Startled, he called out, 'Hey, Mikee!' but got no reply. The next morning, his colleague joked, 'Don’t worry, it was just Mikee’s ghost helping with your work.' Turned out, it was only a neighbor leaving tools behind.

2. At Mikee’s Auto Repair, a delivery driver once found a mysterious package left on the backseat of an empty car. Curious, he brought it inside, only to discover it contained nothing but an old newspaper clipping and a note reading: ‘Fix whatever is broken here.’ The delivery driver shrugged and thought, ‘What the heck,’ then went ahead and fixed some random loose screw he noticed. A few days later, his neighbor dropped by with a box of donuts, saying, “Thanks for fixing my car—turns out I had a loose gas cap!” The whole town started leaving notes at Mikee’s, each one more absurd than the last.’

3. At Mikee’s Auto Repair, one foggy morning a mechanic noticed that his toolbox seemed heavier than usual. When he opened it, he found a note inside: ‘Your next customer will ask for impossible repairs.’ Soon enough, an old delivery driver came in with a rusty old van. He asked Mikee to replace non-existent headlights and fix brakes on wheels that were long gone. The whole garage burst out laughing when they saw his list—except Mikee, who fixed everything with parts from his own car. The legend ended there, but everyone still jokes that if you ever come in with impossible repairs, Mikee might just help you anyway.

4. At Mikee’s Auto Repair, a delivery driver once discovered a strange note taped inside a tire valve cap. It read: ‘If you see this, bring it back for a free oil change.’ No name or address was provided. Curious, the delivery driver brought the note in and indeed received a free oil change. From then on, whenever someone found such notes, they’d pop into Mikee’s, get their service for free—and leave a tip anyway. Turned out, it was just a friendly prank from a neighborhood mechanic who wanted everyone to feel special.
