Description

Allison tells us about Jannett Christman. Unfortunately the movie "When a Stranger Calls" is loosely based on this story.

Janett Christman was born on March 21, 1936 in Boonville, Missouri; she was the oldest daughter of Charles & Lula Christman. She had two sisters, Reta, and Cheryl. Janett was described as fun-loving, cheerful, exceptionally hard working & played the piano in choir.
