Synopsis/Details
Alone on a dark road, a young man stops at a run-down filling station. Seeing no one around, he begins pumping his own gas. The proprietor appears suddenly, as does another customer who - strangely - seems to be on foot. The other customer asks for the gas hose. . . and begins drinking from it! His mouth and teeth bright red, he congratulates the owner on the flavoring. The young man learns that he has filled his tank with blood and that these two men are vampires. This filling station is not for gas, but for blood. Sensing the sweetness of warm blood, the two vampires descend on the young man.
