The tale of the babysitter who receives an eerie phone call only to discover the call was placed from inside the home has been popular since the mid-20th century.
The story has yielded several films, including 'When a Stranger Calls' (1979) and its spin-offs.
The story is based on a real-life crime that took place in 1950 in Missouri, USA. A 13-year-old named Janett Christman was babysitting a three-year-old boy at his home when she was brutally raped and murdered by an intruder. Her case remains unsolved.
