It's been more than 14 years since The Sopranos went off the air, though fascinating new behind-the-scenes tidbits are surfacing thanks to a new book.

The Sopranos stars Michael Imperioli (Christopher Moltisanti) and Steve Schirripa (Bobby 'Bacala' Baccalieri) wrote the new book entitled Woke Up This Morning: The Definitive Oral History of The Sopranos, which was published earlier this month.

One of the most memorable passages reveals how a mysterious call the late James Gandolfini received inspired a classic scene in the show.

The Sopranos follows New Jersey mafia don Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) and his family, with the show lavished with praise from critics and fans throughout its six-season 86-episode run.

Imperioli reveals in the book that Gandolfini received a call from an unknown number late one night, that terrified the actor.

'The story goes like this: Gandolfini got a call in the middle of the night on his cell phone, it was an unknown number,' Imperioli began.
