The first phone call


I don't know if anyone realized this, but during the first phone call, Jess answered and said, "it's him again, the moaner!" Which makes me wonder how many times did this guy call before he started terrorizing them and makes you wonder about Billy just randomly stumbling onto their Sorority house. Maybe he was calling them to feel them out and see if it was a good idea to start terrorizing and murdering the girls.

I wondered about how long he'd been calling too. I believe somebody here suggested that the first calls (the ones we never hear) might have been harmless prank calls from the fraternity house or something like that, since Barb comments that "he's expanded his act', indicating that Billy's call was quite different from the "moaner's" call/calls. Sounds like a plausible idea but we will never know ( but it's great fun to speculate).

Yes, we don't know that the first call (or any previous ones the girl received) was Billy. It might've been. But at the same time, it might've been some other college kids having a joke. It might've been some local pervert who managed to get the Sorority House phone number.

Like the girl found buried in the park, it could've been Billy. It could've been an unrelated murder, they only found when they were looking for the missing girl.

It's part of the mystery of who Billy was, and how he came to be at the Sorority House.

I think that he first caller was not Billy. It's completely different from every other call.

If you listen to one of Billy's later calls he says one of the exact same things that was in the first call (something about making a baby) so it is Billy on the line the first time.

The first call we hear is Billy, not the ones before it.
