17 Creepiest Audio Recordings Ever Made

Terrifying 911 calls, paranormal activity and psychopathic serial killers.

Creepy Audio Sound recording and reproduction has existed in human history for almost 150 years, following the invention of the first paleophone in 1877 by Charles Cros. The first proven, practical device was the mechanical phonograph cylinder, invented by Thomas Edison in the same year. It was clear from the beginning that this wasn't just some novelty, and it wasn't long until the invention became widespread across the world. Today, there are countless uses for sound recording and reproduction. From a consumer's perspective, the most notable example of this is through the commercial distribution of music, along with almost every form of digital entertainment. Audio recording is also widely utilised by the military for intel and security, while scientists have been able to pick up audio from millions of miles away from our planet. This article takes a look at the outright creepiest audio recordings ever taken. From horrific phone messages left by serial killers, to terrifying recordings taken from the middle of disaster zones, each of these entries are as fascinating as they are terrifying. Please note that some of these recordings contain extremely disturbing content, so the faint of heart and easily scared should proceed with caution.
