Paranormal Activity 2: Creepy Phone Call Leads To Katie’s Voicemail Dan Koelsch, October 19, 2010 Briefly: While the viral marketing for Paranormal Activity 2 is not really streamlined or narrative in nature, it’s still fascinating. Dread Central got a phone call last night (which you can hear on the site) from what appeared to be a frantic Katie (from the first film) trying to get ahold of her sister.
