Platform 6

On the 23rd December 1992, a young girl jumped from platform 6 and
died upon impact with an underground train. Sometimes, people say
they still hear the spine-chilling screams of the crowd who watched her
die.
(Present day) The main character receives a phone call of
congratulations as he is given a new job in central London. One night,
as he waits for the train home on Platform 6, he gets a phone call from
an unknown number. He stares at his phone in disbelief as he has no
signal in the underground station, then he slowly raises it to his ear. He
listens carefully as the crackling whispers of a young girl are heard.
Before he can make out what the voice is saying, the phone goes dead.
Confused, the train stops in front of him and he boards- in the
background the figure of a young girl is seen.
Days later, the main character is once again at Platform 6, waiting for
the return train. He is alone, but keeps hearing the faint sound of
footsteps running around nearby. He sits patiently looking through some
work documents, and then his phone starts ringing. He leaves it to ring,
and when it doesnt stop he presses 'end call'. Silence. Within seconds it
starts ringing again, he angrily answers and he hears the whispers of
the girl. It becomes louder and louder, and as the train pulls into the
station, a blood-curdling scream is heard from the other side of the
phone. Scared, he gets onto the train instead of investigating the
mysterious phone calls any further
The next day, on his way to work he stops to ask a train station warden
if they have a signal service in the station, to which the warden replies
no and then turns to help another passer-by. Behind the warden is a
newspaper stand, the main character stops and looks carefully at the
headlines and notices that one states someone recently jumped in front
of a train from Platform 6. The man selling the newspapers says to him
suddenly "that's her." He looks up, confused. The seller continues, "it
was her what made him jump... the little girl". The main character
quickly moves away from the stand, head spinning, unsure of what to
think of what he's just been told. At work, he spends his time
researching Platform 6. On screen, countless news stories of people
jumping in front of the train are seen. The main character stares at the
monitor, unable to take in the shocking discovery. He leaves work and
makes his way into the station warily. A phone rings, but after inspecting
his own mobile, he realises its not his that is ringing. He looks up to see
a woman on the very edge of the platform- she looks over her shoulder
at him with a twisted, evil look on her face. She lowers her eyes to the
mobile phone and within seconds she jumps onto the tracks. The main
character jumps up but finds himself too late to change what's about to
happen as the speeding train comes to a stop in front of him. The
screams of other people are heard. The main character stumbles away
from the platform, clutching his head- vision blurred. He looks up to see
the young girl who died years ago staring at him (the audience see
other victims in the background too, including the woman who just
jumped) Suddenly they disappear as a warden comes over to help main
character up, he leaves the station, returning home for the night.
A few nights later, after skipping days of work, the main character feels
the urge to visit the station. He buys a ticket, but when he looks at it, the
text is scratched out leaving only the date- 23/12/1992. He runs down to
the platform in a state. People give him uneasy looks as he stares at the
tracks. His phone begins to ring and as he tightens his grip on the
mobile, he jumps from Platform 6.
