When A Stranger Calls

Jill finds her friend dead in the bathroom and tries to escape with the two children when the man finally appears and starts to chase her all around the house. During the struggle she also finds the maid dead in the water pond. Then as she's being choked she stabs the man in the hand with a fireplace poker and runs out the door as the police arrive. He's taken away and she is taken to a hospital where she starts having delusions about the guy coming to get her.

Question: This movie is based off an old urban legend with the same circumstances involved. But there were two endings to the original legend that we've heard. In one, the babysitter lives, in the other, she dies. Can anyone confirm which one was the original?

Answer: I don't think it is possable to know which one came first since the origins of the legend are not known, but here is a good link that might give you some info. http://www.snopes.com/horrors/madmen/babysit.htm.

Answer: It's based on the murder of Janet Christman in the 50's - she was attacked and killed while babysitting. She called the police, but they didn't make it, she was found by the parents dead on the floor, right next to the phone.
