More than an Antique Deal!

I am a rotary telephone collector. My husband and kids were at a softball game. I was sitting here quietly on my computer and was very happy that the rotary phone was in good working order that I had bought from an Antique shop earlier in the day, and so plugged in our regular home phone. Then, it happend! to this day I get chills! My back was toward the phone and it "RANG"! I thought this is not possible, I was stiff, as I knew the phone was (not) plugged in! Then a second ring! thats when I got up the nerve to stand up and look at it. I picked the entire phone up to "make sure" it was not plugged in! It wasn't. I debated for a few hours if i should keep it? I called local phone company and talked with their technical department and they said there is no way possible for the phone to ring without being plugged-in! they said, mam, you really did get more than you bargained for! good luck! It was that conversation that made me pick up the phone and walk it outside to the trash can. My husband and kids laughed and I explained that phone was(not) going to be in our home. I slept okay that night, Yet to this day I wonder (who) was "trying" to contact me. I did not have the courage to pick up the reciever. I was in shock, to this day when I think about it I really believe the phone was evil.
