The basic storyline has been adapted a number of times, including in "Foster's Release" (1971), "O Anjo da Noite" (1974), "The Sitter" (1977), "When a Stranger Calls" (1979), "When a Stranger Calls Back" (1993), "When a Stranger Calls" (2006) and "Amusement" (2008).  ("The Sitter", "When a Stranger Calls", and "When a Stranger Calls Back" are all the work of director Fred Walton.)
