When a teenager reported hearing odd noises beneath her bed to the emergency services, the police discovered something horrifying
911 received an odd call. Mia, a 5-year-old girl, was involved. She spoke in a whisper and appeared frightened.
Come, please. There’s a whisper coming from beneath my bed. Her voice was shaking, “I hear them, I’m very scared.”
— Mia, where are your folks?
They don’t think I’m real. I’m making it all up, they say. However, I can hear it. Right now… I hear it once again.
Despite his twelve years of experience in emergency services, the operator was frightened by this call. There’s no doubt that the girl wasn’t kidding or lying.
— We’ll dispatch the police right now. Please stay on the line.
Officers arrived at the outlying residence ten minutes later. The door was opened by the startled parents.
— What took place? The father looked at his wife and questioned, “Did Mia make something up again?”
The sergeant said, “We’re just going to check.” — Could we enter the room?
Mia was holding her teddy bear while she sat in a corner of her room. She had tears in her eyes. With the pink blanket, she gestured silently to her tiny bed.
She said, “The voices come from there.”
A policeman bent over and peered beneath the bed. Nothing odd was there, just dust and a few toys that had dropped.
He stood up and remarked, “There’s nothing here.” — Someone’s imagination is so vivid, it appears. A warning will be given to the parents for making a fictitious call.
Wait! — Another cop said abruptly, holding up his hand. — Silence, please. There’s no sound coming from anyone.
There was a terrible silence in the room. In the corridor, even the parents froze. A minute went by, then another half-minute. The sound Mia had mentioned regarding the small girl was then heard by all. They noticed something awful as they glanced beneath the bed once more.
Then again. A faint, inaudible murmur. It wasn’t a voice, though. There was a sound. like scraping metal, muffled by the ground.
It was as though someone was excavating.
The cop started knocking on the flooring while kneeling. It was a dull sound in one corner. A thin layer of soil was discovered beneath the parquet when the cops swiftly removed a small portion of it.
They went to the garage and got a shovel and started digging. and they struck a metal cover a few centimeters later. There was a tunnel underneath.
They requested assistance. Two hours later, it was found that there was an extensive system of tunnels beneath the house and nearby lots.
There, three fugitives—former inmates who had been hidden for months—were burrowing directly beneath the city in preparation for an escape overseas.
They tried to operate quietly at night using specialized equipment, but little Mia could still hear them.
They were apprehended because of the girl’s call. Mia has been sleeping soundly ever since.
