call at 3:17 AM

Suddenly, at exactly 3:17 AM, my phone started ringing.

There was no name on the screen.

It only said:

"Unknown Caller."

I answered.

For a few seconds, there was complete silence.

Then, in a very soft voice, a girl whispered,

"Are you standing in my room?"

Confused, I replied,

"No... I'm at home."

She answered,

"Then... who's standing beside my bed?"

The call disconnected immediately.

I thought it was just a prank.

But at that exact moment, I heard a slow sound coming from the corner of my room...

Knock... Knock... Knock...

It sounded like someone was tapping three times from inside my wardrobe.

Gathering my courage, I opened the wardrobe.

Nothing.

But the moment I closed it...

Knock... Knock... Knock...

This time, the sound came from under my bed.

I didn't have the courage to look.

Just then, a new message appeared on my phone.

There was no phone number.

It simply read:

"Don't look under the bed. It knows you're awake."

My entire body turned cold.

Five minutes later, I finally gathered enough courage to turn on my phone's camera and point it beneath the bed.

What I saw on the screen...

Two pale eyes staring back at me from the darkness.

And a twisted smile.

But when I looked under the bed with my own eyes...

There was nothing there.

The next morning, I opened the recorded video.

The entire video was pitch black.

Except for the last second...

A face suddenly appeared inches from the camera and whispered:

"I'll see you again tonight..."

Since that night, I have never answered a phone call at 3:17 AM.

Because every now and then, my phone still rings...

And the screen always says:

"Unknown Caller..."
