A creepylooking coroner introduces three different horror tales involving his current work on cadavers in body bags.Anne is a young college student who arrives for her first job working the night shift at an allnight filling station near Haddonfield, Illinois a reference to the setting of Carpenters two Halloween films. The attending worker, Bill, tells her that a serial killer has broken out of a mental hospital, and cautions her not to leave the booth at the station without the keys because the door locks automatically. After Bill leaves, Anne is alone and the tension mounts as she deals with various latenight customers seeking to buy gas for a quick fillup, purchase cigarettes or just use the restroom key, unsure whether any of them might be the escaped maniac. Eventually, when Anne suspects that the escaped killer is lurking around the gas station, she tries to call the police, only to find that the phone line is dead. Soon after that, she finds an elaborately grotesque drawing in the Restroom and then the dead body of a transient sitting in a pickup truck on the lift in one of the garage bays. She makes a phone call for help which results in her realization that Bill, the attending worker she met earlier, is in fact the escaped killer, who has killed the real Bill and is killing numerous passersby. She finds the real Bills dead body in one of the lockers. Serial Killer Bill then reappears and attempts to kill Anne with a machete, breaking into the locked booth by smashing out the glass with a sledgehammer and then chasing her around the deserted garage. Just as he is about to kill her, a customer returns, having forgotten his credit card, and he wrestles the killer, giving Anne time to crush him under the vehicle lift. ........
