There was this old telephone in my grandma's attic. One day, it rang out of the blue. I was curious and answered it. A cold voice said 'You should never have come here.' I was confused as I was just in the attic. Then the voice started to whisper strange things, like secrets about my family that no one should know. I quickly hung up, but the phone kept ringing. I ran out of the attic, and the ringing finally stopped. It was a truly terrifying experience.

There was a dark forest known as the Forest of Whispers. Legend had it that a witch lived deep within it. A group of hikers went into the forest one day.

One of the hikers strayed from the group and got lost. He saw a figure in a black cloak approaching. He ran, but it seemed the forest was leading him in circles. Eventually, he was found the next day, completely mad, still muttering about the whispering figure.
One common element is the unknown caller. Not knowing who is on the other end creates a sense of mystery and fear. Another is strange noises, like heavy breathing or distorted voices. These can be really unsettling. And often there's a feeling of being trapped, like in the case where the phone won't let you hang up.
One aspect could be the technological limitations of the time. In the 1920s, the telephone was still a relatively new invention. The telephone company employees might have had to work hard to maintain the lines during the cold winter months of Christmas. They may have used horse - drawn carts to carry tools and equipment to repair any faults in the lines. This was all part of ensuring that people could have their Christmas calls.
