I am uploading the pages of Joe Hill's short story "The Black Phone" for anyone who wants to read it but cannot find it. Under the read more. It's 30 pages (7,250 words) and long though, so don't open it unless you're ready to read.

You can listen to it instead, if you prefer that method. There are audiobook uploads on youtube, just short of an hour long. [Female Narrator] | [Male Narrator]

It's definitely worth reading/listening to in order to see all the ways the movie is similar (direct quotes) and all the ways it isn't.

You can read the extended ending to the short story [here].

OK YALL

I just watched the movie “The Black Phone” and ofc I have to make a outsiders au for it now 😼

Under the cut is obviously spoilers for the movie/story, and horror-related stuff (It’s not bad but feel free to look up what the movie deals with)

- Ponyboy would be Finney, Johnny would be Robin, and Sodapop would be Gwen

- When I watched the movie I got SUCH qprpbj vibes from Finney and Robin (please send in asks yall I will elaborate 😭) so yeah

- Anyway, Soda inherited the dream/future vision thing from their mom. When their parents died, Pony and Soda were taken away and sent to live with a random guy basically (the “dad” is unfortunately still the same as in the movie)

- Johnny’s character would be changed a bit because Robin is more of already a fighter while Johnny is Not. So their final phone conversation would go a little bit more like Johnny telling him that before he was killed, he learned that he does have to stand up for himself (that line about fighting back instead of just taking the punches) and basically teaches that mindset to Pony if that makes sense lol

- Umm idk who the rest of the “ghost boys” would be… Vance would probably be either Tim or Curly because they have those vibes

- I wanna say Darry is somehow involved in the search (maybe he’s like a cop in training?? no idea) and at the end of the movie he’s there at the house and finally reunites with soda and pony but idk if that would happen lol

That scene where the grabber says “I’ll keep my word, johnny” or Wtv was also in the book but it was way creepier. Kind of a cool thing to keep tho BcUZ i visibly cringed when I read it
