Murder on the Answering Machine
Romeo Beckham
Description
On a fall night in 1998, a woman walked into her kitchen after being out all day and tossed her keys onto the counter. She saw the light on her answering machine blinking, so she checked the message. At first, it just sounded like static noise, or maybe someone was breathing heavy. And she figured it was either a prank call or someone had just accidentally dialed her number. But then she heard screaming and crying and then it just went silent, and the message ended. For a moment, the woman just stood there, shocked. She tried calling the number back who had left the message, but it went straight to voicemail. Out of fear that this message she had been left potentially just captured the sound of someone being badly hurt, the woman called 911. ๐ง Follow and listen to ALL of our podcasts from Ballen Studios - find them on Amazon Music, or wherever you get your podcasts! ๐ A Twist of History ๐ https://ballen.lnk.to/atwistofhistory - New episodes every Wednesday ๐ MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark and Mysterious Stories ๐ https://Wondery.fm/MBP - New episodes every Monday ๐ MrBallenโs Medical Mysteries ๐ https://wondery.com/links/mrballens-medical-mysteries/?ol=am - New episodes every Tuesday ๐ Redacted: Declassified Mysteries with Luke Lamana ๐ https://wondery.com/links/redacted/?ol=wnd~spot~ap~am - New episodes every Tuesday ๐ Wartime Stories Podcast ๐ https://ballen.lnk.to/Fz9J66 - New episodes every Monday ๐ Bedtime Stories ๐ http://apple.co/ballenbedtimestories - New episodes every Wednesday ๐ RUN, FOOL! ๐ https://smarturl.it/RunFool ๐ Late Nights with Nexpo ๐ https://ballen.lnk.to/latenightswithnexpo For 100s more stories like this one, check out our main YouTube channel just called "MrBallen" -- https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallen If you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @MrBallen Theme Song by: @RossBugden
