In emergency situations, it is difficult to figure out exactly where to call, so a short, easy-to-remember number was invented - 911. The rescue service began its work in 1968 in the town of Hayleville (Oklahoma, USA) and still exists today.
One can only guess how “lucky” the dispatcher answering calls is. Agree, it is difficult to remain indifferent when once again they call you and say on the other end of the line: “I will put a bullet in my forehead!”
If you decide to diversify your viewing of horror movies - we suggest you find out about the 8 most terrible, frightening calls in 911. Not for the faint of heart.
8. Suicide during a conversation
In 2011, in California, the dispatcher answered another call. How surprised the woman was when she heard a familiar voice in the receiver - with a timbre, intonation, he reminded her of her husband’s best friend ... Soon she was right - it was him. The man said that he had a fight with his wife, who, after his many blows to the head, died.
The purpose of his appeal to the 911 service is a confession of his deed, as well as what he is going to do ... to commit suicide because of guilt. The dispatcher did everything possible in a conversation with a man, but could not dissuade him.
While the police got to his house, a deafening shot rang out in the receiver - the man committed suicide. When the police arrived, it turned out that the woman was alive. Physically, she was able to recover, but what happened to her psyche - one can only guess.
7. The monstrous murder
As usual, the dispatcher answered the phone. The service called Donald Alcohol from the town of Bell. After the man confessed, the Gilchrist County (Florida) office staff shuddered in horror ... He confessed to a heinous crime.
Donald's voice was calm - this surprised the dispatcher, as usually the callers literally beat in a panic. He politely greeted, asked how the dispatcher was doing, and then admitted: “I shot my daughter and shot my grandchildren. They are all dead. ” Further, he gave his address and asked the service workers to come.
When the police arrived at the indicated address, Donald shot himself directly on the porch of his house. He really shot from a caliber of 45 inside the house his daughter - 28-year-old Sarah, as well as children - Caleb, Kylie, Jonathan, Destini, Brandon and Alanna, who was only 3 months old.
Interesting fact: the investigation found that more than 10 years ago, Donald Alcohol killed his 8-year-old son on a hunt - this incident was considered an accident. In addition, the police filed a statement from his daughter in 2008 - Sarah claimed in him that her father had beaten her during her pregnancy.
6. Missing
This call was different from everyone else. The man did not know what to do, so he dialed 911. He said that in the courtyard of his house something was crawling at a frantic speed ... Something whose nature he could not recognize. When the dispatcher asked: "How can you describe this creature?" he replied: "I do not know, it looks like a huge man."
During the conversation, it turned out that earlier someone had killed his dog. Soon the man shouted into the phone: “Send someone! This creature is right in front of me, and it is 2 meters away! ” A creature that looked like a man was dressed in all black, it was smiling, pressed against the window pane ... What kind of bruiser could it be?
The conversation ended, the dispatcher continued to repeat: “Sir? Are you still here? Sir ... ”The man was going to hide somewhere before the police arrived. When she arrived at the indicated address, no one was found in the house. Where the caller disappeared is unknown.
5. Unknown outside the window
From time to time we all love to tickle our nerves, but when something terrible and inexplicable happens in life, it’s not a joke. What would you do in a situation if a stranger stood on the street and gazed steadily out of your window? A man from our history, for example, without hesitation, dialed 911.
Frightened, but still calm, the man said that some stranger in the hood of about 30 years old was looking through his window, and this has been going on for half an hour. He shot his call on a video camera - the video shows that he is telling the truth. The man gave his address, and then said that if the police go straight along the named street, they will stumble directly onto a suspicious person.
At the other end of the wire he was told something, after which the man walked away from the window. How this story ended is unknown, we hope that the police arrived on time and they managed to find out what the stranger needed.
4. Furious monkeys
Collision with furious monkeys can end in a different outcome - someone gets off with scratches, and someone falls into a coma. There are frequent cases of chimpanzee attacks on humans - in 2009, Charla Nash was blinded and lost both hands due to a monkey attack, and in 2005 James Davis was attacked by a chimpanzee, because of which he had to survive more than 60 operations.
A woman called from 241, Rock, Rockrimmon Road. She did not explain anything, and immediately began to shout: “Send the police! Send the police soon! ” During the conversation, it turned out that a monkey had attacked her friend and tore her to pieces. The dispatcher asked her not to hang up and stay on the line until help arrives. The woman began to cry and repeated: “Please send someone sooner, please” ...
The result of the story: a woman stabbed a monkey with a knife, and then got into her car. She continued to cry - still, to experience this. We hope she is doing well now, and this situation does not pop up so often in her memory.
3. Sincere recognition
In 2019, criminal statistics were released in the United States - a record high number of mass killings was committed in the past year. In total, 41 massacres were committed during the year, killing 211 people. Despite high crime, people in the United States leave the doors of their homes open ...
An unusual call was made in 911 - a man did not need help, on the contrary, he asked to protect others from himself. The serial killer admitted that he killed Kimberly Compton first, and she is on the 3rd floor. The killer cried and could not understand the reason for his atrocities ... He asked for help, otherwise someone else would die.
The killer hung up. As it turned out, the 911 rescue service was called by serial killer Paul Michael Stephanie. His characteristic was a whining voice. After the killings, he called the police anonymously declaring what he had done in a squeaky voice. Michael Stephanie killed 3 women in the metropolitan area of Minneapolis-Saint Paul.
2. Someone without skin
The 911 employee answered the call. The man asked to send the police, someone entered his house. The dispatcher requested that he remain calm and give his address. Then came the question: “Sir, do you know who this man or woman is?” to which he replied: "I do not know, I saw only the back of my head without skin ..."
He was asked to leave the house, but he could not do this, because the man was in the closet, and outside of them - They ... Who - is unknown, strange things were happening in the house - everything was shaking. The dispatcher asked him to take the hanger and straighten it (as a means of protection), but, as you might guess, she did not save him.
The result of the story: the man’s voice became more and more distant, he shouted: “O my gad!” There were strange sounds in the handset (reminiscent of the wind mixed with breaking glasses) and then the bell ended.
1. Parental quarrel
This call can be attributed to the most terrible, because 6-year-old girl Lisa Floyd called in tears in 911. The child was very worried about the quarrel between the parents, the girl’s emotions caused tears even in the service workers. Lisa asked to call the police because her parents were fighting. In the background, another child was crying.
From the conversation it turned out that the quarrel that ended in a fight is not the first time. Her parents always fight because her stepfather goes to clubs and drinks alcohol. Lisa was all in tears - in front of her eyes the stepfather beat her mother. The dispatcher tried to reassure the girl - you just have to wait a bit, the police rushed to the rescue.
The dispatcher asked Lisa to stay on the line while the police arrived, but the girl went to see what was happening with her younger sister and mother. She cried out: "He got to the baby!" Communication soon broke.
Interesting fact: Many years later, attorney Keith Grill was interested to know what happened to the girl. She found her, but unfortunately under adverse circumstances. Lisa became her client - she, like her mother, was faced with domestic violence. Fortunately, Keith Grill helped her get out of this nightmarish story and gave her hope for a better life. Lisa said: "My path is not over yet, there is much that I must learn and do in my life."
