Black Eyed Kids???

Question

Recently, I have been reading about how some people have been seeing ghosts (?) called Black Eyed Kids, or BEK for short. I guess essentially they look like children, but they have coal black eyes, no pupil or iris. In some instances, they arrive on your doorstep or greet you while you are still in the car and beg to "be let in". Am curious, has anyone here had any experiences with this type of entity?

Answer 1

The first well documented and discussed account came from a journalist named Brian Bethel in 1998. In his story, two children (not quite teens, but close) approached him as he sat in his car while parked in a parking lot. At first glance, the kids looked normal, wearing clothes that were in style and had a pale, olive colored skin. In acknowledging the two boys, Bethel was overcome with a peculiar fear that he describes in his account as: "I could feel fight-or-flight responses kicking in. Something, I knew instinctually, was not right, but I didn't know what it could possibly be."

Claiming that they were on their way to see a movie but had left their money at home, the two boys asked Bethel for a ride back to their house. When Bethel did not allow them into his car, the kids seemed to get annoyed and kept asking for a ride. As Bethel's fear and panic increased, he actually found himself wanting to open the door. However, when Bethel noticed their eyes, a primal fear took over and momentarily paralyzed him; the kids had coal black eyes, completely lacking pupils and irises.

As if sensing that their chance for admittance into the car was coming to and end, the kids got more urgent and demanding. Bethel was finally able to push his fear momentarily aside and drive away. And while his story sounds like something out of a horror novel, there are other accounts to back it up. (Bethel's account can be found at http://www.ghosts.org/stories/tales/evil-kids.html)

Most accounts occur at the individual's home. There is a knock on the door and on the other side, waiting patiently, is a kid of roughly 12 to 17 years of age. Their dress is usually common for the time and they seem rather normal. But then the sudden fear and the sense of wrongness sinks in. And then of course, there are the eyes.

The BEKs will always ask to be invited inside. Sometimes they claim that they need to use the telephone because they are lost, or their car broke down just up the road. If anyone has ever let them inside, there are no credible accounts. Almost all people who have run-ins with BEKs are too overcome with an unexplained fear and end up turning them away. This only infuriates the kids and they appear to grow impatient and more demanding that they be let in. Also, they will never actually leave until the person they have approached has either closed the door or left the scene of the encounter.

Ok let me get this strait, There are are completely black (Different From The Norm). If they do exist it sounds to me like all this Hub-Ub is fear based and that it comes from the natural prejudice response that Africans were subjected to by Europeans. My recommendation if you run into one is don't let your fear get in the way of rational behavior, treat them no different than anyone else. In all likelyhood even on the most fantastic of levels they are still atleast some-kind of human being and deserve alot better than trashy storys making them out to be some kind of demon, people should be ashamed.

I Did!!! it was Dec. 8th and i was sitting on my couch watching tv and i looked into the mirror beside me and then looked back for half a second and then went back to the mirror and realized that during that half a second I saw a young girl with huge black eyes. Then the next day i went to school and told my friend and she told me about the black eyed kids and to research them. she told me they can stalk you for the rest of your life.

Answer 7

there is a common answer for the black eyed kids, there children of the grave, children that died in coal mines, and died tragically, most had not parents, across the country there are children that died, at the later half of the 19th century, slave labor, they are buried , in masses, or have no name at all on there headstones, just a number, most during life, went hungry and lonely, they are in limbo, and the age range 6 to 16 is because most children were in workhouses, around the country, yes USA, and died in them within that age range, they are not vampires or aliens, they are lost children, in limbo, however they are angry
