About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Chevron’s pumps hummed their quiet song, a delivery driver noticed something odd. The gas station’s neon sign blinked not just once or twice, but in an old-fashioned Morse code rhythm. Curious, he pulled out his phone and typed in the strange pattern: ‘SOS.’ A voice from inside replied, ‘Morning already? Fill up quick—we close at noon!’ Turns out, it was just an elderly owner who forgot to switch off his vintage radio alarm. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and drove away, muttering, ‘Another day, another mystery solved at Chevron.’

2. At dusk, while filling up at Chevron, an old man muttered under his breath, ‘I swear I saw that pump wink at me.’ His friend laughed and shook his head, but ever since then, customers claim they’ve seen strange lights flickering around the station at night. One evening, a delivery driver pulled up and noticed something odd—all the pumps seemed to be blinking in time with each other. He leaned over to his colleague and asked, 'Is it just me, or are those pumps doing some kind of secret dance?' They both burst out laughing, but from then on, everyone joked that Chevron had its own midnight disco.

3. In the dead of night, when Chevron’s pumps glowed like distant stars, a delivery driver pulled in for gas. As he filled up, he heard a soft whisper from inside the station: ‘Fill it up, sonny boy—just fill it up.’ The driver looked around, but saw no one. He shrugged and laughed it off, filling his tank to the brim. Later that evening, as he drove home through quiet streets, he noticed an old man waving from behind the counter of Chevron. ‘That you, sonny?’ whispered the kindly voice. The driver grinned, shaking his head with a twinkle in his eye.

4. At sunset, when Chevron’s pumps cast long shadows across the parking lot, a little girl pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Daddy, look! The gas pump is winking at us!’ Her father chuckled, ruffling her hair affectionately. ‘It’s just the light, honey,’ he said gently. But as they drove off, he turned to his neighbor who was filling up next to them and muttered, “I wonder if it winked at you too.”
