The Baby Sitter Ii

Jenny's last babysitting job nearly ended in death. But she's a survivor. She's getting over it. The crazy guy who was after her is gone and she's even got a new babysitting job. When she answers the phone, she hears a familiar voice, a voice from the past, from the grave.

Jenny wanted some extra money so she decided to babysit. Should be easy, right? She had not counted on crank calls or someone lurking outside the house.

Jenny is desperate to forget Mr Hagen-the maniac who terrorized baby-sitters, including her. Even when she goes to stay with her cousin Debra for the summer, she is still plagued by the same nightmares. Because Debra is a baby-sitter too, and now she is getting terrifying phone calls, just like the ones Jenny used to get... "Hi Babes. I'm back. Company's coming..."But Mr Hagen's dead now, isn't he...?

From the minute that Jenny accepts the Hagen baby-sitting job, she knows she has made a terrible mistake. First there is the dark and gloomy Hagen house, filling her with dread and horror. Then the crank phone calls start. When she finds a threatening note in her bag, she realizes that this isn't a harmless game.

A killer who hates babysitters is on the loose in Silverdale and Karin Connor's name is next on the murderer's list.

Claudia decides to investigate when she and the other members of the Baby-sitters Club receive mysterious phone calls while out on assignments. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.

On Friday nights many parents want to have a little fun together—without the kids. But “getting a sitter”—especially a dependable one—rarely seems trouble-free. Will the kids be safe with “that girl”? It’s a question that discomfited parents have been asking ever since the emergence of the modern American teenage girl nearly a century ago. In Babysitter, Miriam Forman-Brunell brings critical attention to the ubiquitous, yet long-overlooked babysitter in the popular imagination and American history. Informed by her research on the history of teenage girls’ culture, Forman-Brunell analyzes the babysitter, who has embodied adults’ fundamental apprehensions about girls’ pursuit of autonomy and empowerment. In fact, the grievances go both ways, as girls have been distressed by unsatisfactory working conditions. In her quest to gain a fuller picture of this largely unexamined cultural phenomenon, Forman-Brunell analyzes a wealth of diverse sources, such as The Baby-sitter’s Club book series, horror movies like The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, urban legends, magazines, newspapers, television shows, pornography, and more. Forman-Brunell shows that beyond the mundane, understandable apprehensions stirred by hiring a caretaker to “mind the children” in one’s own home, babysitters became lightning rods for society’s larger fears about gender and generational change. In the end, experts’ efforts to tame teenage girls with training courses, handbooks, and other texts failed to prevent generations from turning their backs on babysitting.
