August 22nd, 2008 by WHO WAS PHONE?

It’s early in the morning. The sun won’t be up for another couple of hours. You’re fast asleep in bed, lost in a dream, when the phone rings. Rather than waking up, you roll over and cover your head with a pillow. Hours pass. The sun rises. The phone is ringing.

When you wake up, your alarm clock is blaring and the phone is ringing. By the time you will yourself to turn the alarm off, the phone has stopped ringing. You realize that it’s been ringing all morning. You slide out of bed and press the blinking red button on your phone as you stumble into the bathroom. The phone beeps, followed by the friendly, electronic voice. Hello. You have six hundred and sixty-six new messages. Message one. The phone beeps again, and you’re not prepared for what comes next.

Screaming.

You spin around, thinking that she’s standing right behind you. There’s pure terror in her screams, accompanied by other disturbing noises. You stand there, horrified, for about ten seconds. Screaming gives way to hysterical, garbled crying before dying out with the sounds of spilling meat and tearing flesh.

The phone beeps again. You’re shaking.

Message two.

    THEN WHO WAS HER

  2. WHO WAS PHONE?

    She was busy beating a dead horse.

  3. Darkest

    I love this one, I’ve heard it before. I like to think that those messages get worse.

  4. Royal-Sovereign

    I imagine it’d be like The Holders: after about the tenth or eleventh message the shock-horror would wear off and it’d be more annoying than anything else.

  5. Skwirral

    that’s at least six hundred and sixty-five more messages than someone would really need to leave. i mean, leave a message and i’ll call u back, geez

  6. MooMoon

    not much wakes me up but would’nt she\he hear the sceams when the Messages were
    recording?……….FAIL!

  7. Ziune

    @MooMoon

    Maybe the screams were calming as you tried to get back to sleep.

  8. ME

    so wait were the messages directly from hell? 666 messages so were they like recordings of torture i dont get it i wish it explained more also who was beating a dead horse that makes no sense

  9. Frozen

    So some guy murders people and does it over to my phone number? PRANK CALL

  10. Xantherian

    So the first message was her dying, and the other 665 messages are her calling for help?
    Creepy… but as MooMoon pointed out, wouldn’t you have heard the messages recording?

  11. HER

    Why yes I was beating a dead horse God dammit.

  12. Anon

    I would of thrown the stupid thing out the window as soon as it started.

  13. WHO WAS PHONE?

    @MooMoon: Perhaps it was a cellphone. They don’t speakerphone missed calles/messages.

    Critical thinking, people.

  14. Chinchillazilla

    I’d like this one better if the number of messages were different. 666 is so overused.

  15. Foolish

    One question: Can meat spill?

  16. Who Wasn't Phone

    666 messages

    I think its a girl being toutored in hell

  17. Darkest

    Hey, if I got six hundred and sixty six messages like that, I would be as scared as hell.

  18. You

    It was annoying, but i finally finished those damned 666 messages.

  19. Lavistria

    To do 666 messages in one night - phwoar, someone’s got a tight schedule…

    If that was my phone, I’d send the messages to all my friends :D

  20. BonerFruit

    @Foolish
    You made me lol.
    Thank you.
    And I didn’t enjoy this pasta.

  21. Someone

    Oh god I got that phone call!

    It was probably the first three or four were a girl getting tourtured

    The other 662 messages were just goddamn telemarketers >_<

  22. OmNom

    @Someone

    Nah, the first one was probably just the chick, the second couple were from the idiot’s mom wondering why he never calls her anymore, and then the last 660 or so were from telemarketers.

    With maybe one in there from his boss wondering where the hell he was, and another firing him.

    /true story

  23. Kait's Corpse

    Woah, someone’s got too much time on her hands. Besides, if you listened to the first message then couldn’t you just delete the messages? It’s creepy but it makes no sense T^T

  24. Sigma

    Terrified, you fall back as the messages keep playing, each one more terrible than the last. After what seems like a year, the voice continues “Message Number 666″. A party popper is heard, and a cheerful male voice exclaims “YOU’VE JUST BEEN PRANKED BY PRANKLINE! CALL 099-088-004 TO PRANK SOMEONE YOU KNOW!”

  25. MooMoon

    can meat spill? sloppy joe can :D

    ….cell phone? didnt think of that i dont have a cell phone

  26. bobbles

    I liked this one, regardless of the kids who are trying to make sense of the supernatural.

  27. Why yes!

    Meat can spin so it can definitely spill!

  28. Martin Van Buren

    ok, but who was alarm clock?

  29. MONEH!

    I don’t know, but I’d record all the messages down and sell them to a horror movie producer. *grin*

  30. shortys roc my sox

    what the crap who was alarm clock the alarm clock is a thing not a person and the phone calls 666 is the address to hell so that nuber of messages actualy make since and she might not have heard the messages when they were recording because my phone doesn’t let me hear what the person is recording until they hang up

  31. The Joker

    Dammit Batman stop calling my phone! I have a restraining order for a damn reason!

  32. shortys roc my sox

  35. shortys roc my sox

  36. Nylak

    Lucky me, my voicemail box only holds 15 messages. o_o;;

  37. Lunacy Circe

    Lool. I actually did something like this to one of my friends. It was in the middle of the night and I called my friend, and waited for the message machine, and once it beeped, I started to scream into the phone. XD Scared the crap out of her.

    Hehe. I’m so mean.
