Fox TV Show “The Following” Allows You To Call Joe Carroll

Christopher Moore, January 27, 2014January 27, 2014

The Following Season 2

With the newest episode of The Following screening tonight, the show’s Facebook page posted a picture of a phone number written on a piece of paper. If you call the phone number, the show’s cult leader Joe Carroll answers with a message to his “followers” everywhere. Find out the phone number and what the message says after the break.

Here’s the original Facebook post:

 

Per The Hollywood Reporter, the number also appears in tonight’s episode as an ad in the classifieds. The number is a New York number that was purchased by the show’s marketing department, and when you call it, Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) answers the phone with the message below:

Hello, friend. If you call this number, you must be a “Follower.” I’m sorry to have been gone so long. Your loyalty and dedication means everything to me. This time I won’t disappoint. The resurrection is coming. Be ready.

You then hear the sound of the line going dead. Listening to the message, I didn’t realize until he said the world “resurrection” that the initials of Joe Carroll are J.C. The same as another person who had followers, later died and was resurrected: a guy by the name of Jesus Christ. Could this be a coincidence?

The Following airs Mondays at 9 pm on Fox.
