It was midnight when Sarah's phone rang. The number was unfamiliar, but curiosity got the best of her. "Hello?" she whispered. Static crackled, then a voice, faint and trembling, said, "Help me...

I’m right outside."
Panicked, Sarah looked out the window, seeing nothing but shadows. She locked her doors, heart pounding. Her phone rang again. This time, it was her own number on the screen. A voice identical to hers whispered, "You should have let me in."

Creepy this one is, but intriguing what would have happened if she opened the door would we meet ourselves coming and going. Good work.
