The Last Call at the Switchboard Exchange
from Side B — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo
In the autumn of 1987, a small-town night dispatcher named Carol Anne took the graveyard shift at the old Bell exchange in Granite Falls, Wisconsin. The switchboard was about to be decommissioned, and she was the last operator to sit alone in that basement room with its rows of blinking lights and humming cords. That night, the board lit up with a single incoming call from a number that had been disconnected for thirty years. The voice on the other end was a child, asking for her mother. Carol Anne traced the call to a cemetery. This is the story of what she heard, what she said, and why she still refuses to talk about it. #GraniteFalls #Switchboard #CarolAnne #BellExchange #DisconnectedNumber #Cemetery #ChildsVoice #GraveyardShift #1987 #LastOperator #Wisconsin #SmallTownHorror #PhantomCall #ATaleOfLoss #Midnight #Autumn #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #SideB #BsideHorror Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
