3. The Babysitter (Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark)


The Babysitter was the first urban legend I'd ever heard and it's still my favorite. It's about a babysitter (obviously) who keeps receiving weird phone calls from a man who is counting time down, but she doesn't know what happens when time is up. Finally, she calls the operator to find out who is making these calls to her and when the operator calls back, she's told the calls are coming from upstairs and to get out of the house. As she's about to take the children outside, a door opens and she sees a man making his way down the stairs.

Suggested watching: When a Stranger Calls. The original, not the remake. The first 20 minutes of that movie are so intense and terrifying. I honestly didn't like the rest of the movie, but it's worth watching for the opening.
