Welcome to Cryptic Soup, your after-dark podcast. In this week's episode, join Thena and Kylee to talk about an urban legend of when a stranger calls. Was the call actually coming from inside the house? Was it based on a true case, perhaps the story of Janett Christman? Let’s figure it out together.
PS: Kylee is very sorry for the delay on this episode. It should have been posted on Thanksgiving but time got away with planning the holiday.
