Calls from Home
Wednesday, April 11th, 2007I’m sure everyone’s received calls from your own home or loved ones on your mobile phone. But have you ever experienced picking up a call that could have spooked you out? How, you may ask. What if the called ID on your mobile is showing your house number and when you pick it up, no one is on the other line? Doubtful? Not really when a friend of mine related to me an incident that happened to her not long ago.
You see, it was a holiday season so her family decided to go for a trip overseas. My friend, however, was stuck at home because she could not take any paid leave from her company. For the whole week, her phone kept ringing at the exact time, 3pm. Her mobile phone would show that the caller was calling from her home. The first time when it happened, she thought that her phone must be wrong and picked it up. There was no one talking on the other end and she could only hear crackling and static sound. Puzzled, she thought her phone was going crazy. However, the same thing did not happen when she picked up other calls. I asked if it could have been a prank call from someone but she was convinced that no one has keys to her house (including her relatives) except her.
