Mrs. Mandrakis shows her around and mentions their live-in housemaid, Rosa. </p><p>After the parents leave, Jill receives threatening phone calls from someone who mostly says nothing and then hangs up. She initially believes it is her friends playing a prank, but when she contacts them, they deny it. While the Mandrakis' two children are asleep upstairs, Jill's friend Tiffany visits. Fearing this may get her in trouble, Jill asks Tiffany to leave. Tiffany is ambushed by an unseen intruder while walking to her car. </p><p>The unknown person calls Jill, indicating he can see her. Alarmed, Jill calls the police, who say the call can be traced by keeping the caller on the line for at least sixty seconds. While waiting for the phone to ring, Jill sees a shadow moving in the guest house. Believing it is the Mandrakis' older son back from college, she investigates, but finds the guest house empty. While there, the unknown caller calls, convincing Jill he is watching her. She keeps him on the phone to trace the call, only to realize he has called a different line. Looking out the window, Jill sees a light has been turned on inside the Mandrakis' house. </p><p>Believing the maid, Rosa, is home, Jill searches for her, but finds no one. The phone rings again, and the caller remains quiet; Jill keeps him on the line for a minute so the call can be traced. Jill hears the shower running in the maid's room, but upon checking, the bathroom is empty. The police call her back saying the calls are coming from inside the house and she and the children need to get out. Horrified, Jill finds Tiffany's body on the bathroom floor and flees. </p><p>Jill finds the children hiding in their playroom. She sees the intruder in the loft. They escape into the greenhouse where Jill discovers Rosa's body under the water. The assailant enters and searches the greenhouse. Jill locks him inside, but he breaks out and attacks her. During the altercation, Jill turns on the fireplace to scorch the assailant's back then stabs his hand into the hardwood floor with a fireplace poker, then rushes out and to find a police officer. The assailant is arrested. </p><p>Days later while recovering in the hospital, Jill is awakened to a popping ballon from a group of “get well” balloons floating at her ceiling. She tries calling the nurses station but gets no answer. She gets out of the bed and walks to the door and looks out, but she finds the nurses station and hallways are empty of people. Her room phone starts to ring, and she goes back in the room to answer it. While looking at her reflection in the mirror, the assailant appears behind and grabs her. She shrieks hysterically, waking from her hallucination as the doctors and her father try to stop her frantic panicking. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=When_a_Stranger_Calls_(2006_film)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Camilla_Belle" title="Camilla Belle">Camilla Belle</a> as Jill Johnson</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tommy_Flanagan_(actor)" title="Tommy Flanagan (actor)">Tommy Flanagan</a> as The Stranger <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Lance_Henriksen" title="Lance Henriksen">Lance Henriksen</a> as voice of The Stranger</li></ul></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Katie_Cassidy" title="Katie Cassidy">Katie Cassidy</a> as Tiffany Madison</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tessa_Thompson" title="Tessa Thompson">Tessa Thompson</a> as Scarlett</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Brian_Geraghty" title="Brian Geraghty">Brian Geraghty</a> as Bobby</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Clark_Gregg" title="Clark Gregg">Clark Gregg</a> as Ben Johnson</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Derek_de_Lint" title="Derek de Lint">Derek de Lint</a> as Dr. Mandrakis</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kate_Jennings_Grant" title="Kate Jennings Grant">Kate Jennings Grant</a> as Kelly Mandrakis</li> <li><a href="/wiki/David_Denman" title="David Denman">David Denman</a> as Officer Burroughs</li> <li>Arthur Young as Will Mandrakis</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Madeline_Carroll" title="Madeline Carroll">Madeline Carroll</a> as Allison Mandrakis</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Steve_Eastin" title="Steve Eastin">Steve Eastin</a> as Detective Harv Hines</li> <li>John Bobek as Officer Lewis</li> <li>Brad Surosky as "Boom-Boom"</li> <li>Karina Logue as Track Coach</li> <li>Rosine Ace Hatem as Rosa Ramirez</li> <li>Escher Holloway as Cody</li> <li>Owen Smith as Police Officer</li> <li>Jessica Faye Helmer as Additional Police Officer</li> <li>Lillie West as Stacy (voice)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Dianna_Agron" title="Dianna Agron">Dianna Agron</a> as Cheerleader</li></ul></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=When_a_Stranger_Calls_(2006_film)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Screen_Gems" title="Screen Gems">Screen Gems</a> first announced production of <i>When a Stranger Calls</i> in August 2004, with Jake Wade Wall penning the script.

<p>For the release of the film, <a href="/wiki/AOL_Instant_Messenger" class="mw-redirect" title="AOL Instant Messenger">AOL Instant Messenger</a> ran ads beckoning users to IM Jill020306. When messaged, "Jill" (a <a href="/wiki/Colloquis" title="Colloquis">Colloquis</a>-style program) made small talk before panicking, as she received calls from a stranger asking her to check the children. She then gives the user her phone number (a toll-free 877 number) and asks them to call her. When users call, they hear an ad for the movie. Also, around the time of the DVD release, a new screen name appeared, Jill051606, to tie in with the DVD release date on May 16, 2006. It does not involve calling her, but instead she directs users to a video security system on the official DVD site where the shadow of the stranger passes by frequently. </p><p>As a marketing promotion for the film, a MySpace profile was created for Jill051606 featuring photos from the film.
