Tales from the Gas Station - by Jack Townsend (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Drunk customers. Shoplifting raccoons. Otherworldly visitors. As night shift clerk at the twenty-four-hour gas station at the edge of town, Jack has pretty much seen it all.

That is, until his best friend reveals the body of a local politician hidden in the trunk of a car, setting off a chain of events with apocalyptic potential. Soon, Jack finds himself entangled in a supernatural conspiracy involving monster hunters, sociopaths, doomsday cultists, and... garden gnomes?

Armed with nothing but his wits, sarcasm, and alarming amounts of coffee, can Jack stay alive long enough to see another morning shift? Or will he, too, fall victim to the dark, ancient force infecting the dreams of everyone around him?

One thing's for sure. He's not getting paid enough for this.

"The last time I laughed at a book this hard was when I read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in high school. And that was 30 years ago. Seriously. This book is absurd, silly, funny, and jaw-dropping. I cannot put it down. I had read some of the stories on CreepyPasta but the book is just plain awesome."
