The number 18669457829 is linked to a promotional game from Hotel626.com, a thriller game created by Doritos. The game involves eerie phone calls with pre-recorded messages that can be quite scary, especially if received late at night. Many users report calls with creepy voices giving directions like "turn left" or "if you want to live, do as I say." These calls are part of the game's interactive feature, where players input their phone numbers to receive instructions. However, it seems that some users are getting these calls without participating, likely because someone entered their number as a prank. If you receive these calls, stay calm and don't panic. It's a promotional stunt, not a real threat. If the calls persist or are particularly disturbing, consider blocking the number and reporting it to your service provider. Most importantly, don't give out your phone number for unknown games or promotions, and be cautious about who you share your number with.
Me and my friends recived the same phon call, it was realy scary and we coudnt sleep, it was stupid of the food company to do that
A disturbing call was received from this number, with the caller speaking about inappropriate content.
It's amusing that this number has been involved in similar incidents with others, as it happened to me as well.
The call was answered with a hello, and subsequent calls continued.
A disturbing call was received around 11:45, which woke me up and included a threatening message, prompting me to hang up, and further investigation revealed it was from a hotel, with similar experiences reported by my acquaintances.
I am absolutly shaken after recieving this call 15 mins ago, me and my best friend are stil crying and my puppy is stil whining unter the blanket, its a tottaly rediculous situation
Everything seems to be fine between us
Following a smoke break and a walk with friends, one of them received a mysterious call. When she listened to the voice message, it simply said 'it's right behind you,' causing all of us to freak out momentarily. After calling the number and looking it up, we discovered it was a prank and decided to play along, finding it hilarious and going on to play the same trick on numerous friends.
My friend's prank of typing my number into a website has led to unwanted calls, and I'm more annoyed with her than anything else.
What a coinsidance, my friend was playin hotel 626 and he put his ex gfs number, it was pretty funny, alot of people seem to have the same experiance.
Ive been reciving calls every night for a week now, im only 15 and pretty superstisous, and I dont know whats going on, none of my friends have heard of hotel 626, and this guy keeps calling me, telling me to do stuff or I wont get out alive
It was kinda creepy, but you should just hang up and go back to sleep like i did, its common sence
In the span of 10 minutes, both my roommate and I received calls on our phones, with me receiving three calls and my roommate receiving one, which is utterly disturbing, especially at 4 a.m.
Recieved a call at night, but my phone was on silent mode, when i listened to the voice mail, it said 'hurry, turn right', the voice sounded creepy as hell, but obviosly it was fake, they shouln't be using such tactics, it's rediculous, peoples dont want to be scared by such calls!

The voice mail from this number was frightening, with an ominous message from a creepy-sounding individual, which caused me to take precautions and alert my sister.
Two calls were received, with a creepy message that initially caused alarm, but now seems to be a publicity stunt for a movie
It seem's like just another annoyning call.
Such immature behavior is disappointing.
In my opnion, a more efective way to advertise doritos would be to say 'if you want to live, buy a bag of doritos, it will help' hahahahhaha, thats genious!! XD
The call I received included strange audio instructions, which was unsettling given the context, leading me to contact Frito-Lay and express my frustration about the incident
No point in trying to complian, i'll just ignore them and move on
I dont no what to say, i ment bat, i guess its a scam or somethin.
I was startled by the call and got my airsoft gun loaded with my dog next to me.
Upon searching for Hotel 626 on Yahoo, it appears to be an online game with a scary theme, which seems silly. The question remains, how do they obtain these phone numbers?
I appreciate the warning about this number
Many of the comments here are utterly ridiculous, and it's disappointing to see such negativity; the Hotel 626 advertising strategy, for instance, is quite innovative and deserving of praise.
I was home alone when I recieved a prank call from a 1866 number, which frightened me, and after I called back, it went to a hotel room, and I became hysterical until a friend reveald it was a prank
To initiate contact, one would typically dial the person's number.
whatever the heck this is, itreally needs to stop!!!! I got really scared and I cryed alot..p.s I called the cops and then hung up but still, I should sue this company!!!!!!
