Yeah, this is based on an urban legend, and they can have a lot of endings, changes in detail, etc. For instance, there's the classic about The Babysitter and The Man Upstairs. Depending on which version you hear, the children may be found dead, tied up but unharmed, or sleeping and unaware of the danger they were in. There's even a version in which the child is making the threatening calls, and there's a variant with two babysitters. If you haven't heard the Two Babysitters and The Man Upstairs variant, I'll tell it to you (I have to warn you, though, that I haven't heard a happy ending for that one).
