Q: Is there a sequel to When a Stranger Calls 2006?

Screen Gem greenlit a sequel rumored to be titled When a Stranger Returns in which Hayden Panettiere was to play the babysitter, but they cancelled the film. Camilla Belle almost turned down the role of Jill because she personally dislikes horror films and never wanted to star in one.

Today marks the anniversary since the release of When A Stranger Calls Back., which premiered on Showtime on April 4, 1993. This is one of my favorite horror sequels. It’s too bad it didn’t get a theatrical release, but it may work better viewing in the “safety” of your own home. I went to a few of the locations a few visits back while in Vancouver. I will do an update during my next trip for the remaining locations.
