Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Circle K’s neon sign flickered on, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every night, an old man appeared from nowhere and whispered into the cash register before vanishing without a trace. Finally, one evening, the delivery driver decided to stay late and listen carefully. The old man whispered: ‘Don’t forget your change!’ Then he vanished, leaving behind exactly correct coins in the register. Since then, everyone calls him ‘Mr. Exact Change,’ and no one is scared anymore—just amused.

2. At dawn, when Circle K’s parking lot was empty but for one lone car, an early bird employee noticed a shadowy figure refueling without paying. The gas pump clicked off after exactly three gallons. The next morning, the same mysterious figure returned, this time waving a crumpled receipt from the previous day. ‘Three gallons again, please,’ they said with a smile. The employee shook their head and grinned, filling up the tank without another word. From then on, it became a daily ritual—a silent exchange between Circle K and its enigmatic customer.

3. At night, when Circle K’s neon sign glowed brightly, a young boy walking home from school saw something strange. His dog, usually too busy sniffing around, suddenly froze and stared intently into the store window. Inside, an old man behind the counter smiled knowingly. ‘Just checking out the new toys,’ he whispered to himself. The boy shrugged it off, but his dog never forgot that mysterious moment at Circle K.

4. At dusk, when Circle K’s neon sign cast eerie shadows across the parking lot, a neighborhood dog began howling every time it lit up. One night, a delivery driver noticed the dog's howl and started singing along, thinking it was joining in on the fun. Soon enough, other neighbors joined in, creating an impromptu karaoke circle around the gas station. By morning, everyone agreed that while Circle K might drive you wild with its neon light, it also brought the community together.
