Well I never heard of the BEK's until I moved to ole Kentucky. I am from Washington DC so let me just say that it is not by choice that I live here. Anyways- I met some friends after moving here and they started telling me about the different cities surrounding Lexington- and they told me to stay away from Versailles. I asked Why? They replied, that is where the Black Eyed Children live. I had never heard of this before then, so I said what are you talking about?

Apparantly, one of them used to live there. Versailles is an old victorian town about 10 miles outside of Lexington. Ive always had a bad vibe driving through that place and never liked it. Then I knew why.

My friend said, that they were at a friends house when around 11pm there was a knock on the door. The owner of the house went to the front door and saw two children standing there- about 9 or 10 yrs old. They asked if they could come in and use the phone. Because the guy saw that these kids has black eyes he totally freaked out and slammed the door and began shouting to my friend in the house to back away from the door. Then they began pounding on the door. My friend who was there was like- what the hell is going on? He didnt believe that there was anything to be afraid of and went to the door, flew it open, and they were gone. No one was there. The owner of the house totally freaked out.

Anyways, apparantly a few other friends of mine that i have met since living here have had encounters with them too.

What they are- I can only say demons. It's pretty messed up. And because of that, I never drive to Versailles. Seriously that town has a dirty negative vibration.

Well, in all honesty, according to ancient tradition demons can disguise themselves as children in order to gain entrance to a house. They have also been known to appear as cats or dogs, and even naked women, in an effort to gain entrance.

Demons were also known to be identifiable by physical features, the old theory is that if man is made in the image of God, and the image of God is perfect, then imperfect demons can not completely imitate our form.

This is interesting and I haven't heard much about the "Black Eyed Children" so I won't venture to make a statement as to the voracity of the OP's story but I will look into it more.

EDIT: crap, i didn't notice how old the first posting was lol

Crazy, I partly grew up in Ky and as a middle aged adult(36) I can corroborate some of these facts.
In and around Versailles, (pronounced ver-sales for some reason) I have seen and spoken to these things. My friends and I used to encounter them (when I was much younger) only at night and only in isolated places. They seem completely off, I mean almost everything about them is just slightly out of sorts. Not to mention the lack of iris or pupil or cornea in the ocular cavity. They did not ever become openly hostile and seemed to be exuding a sort of non aggresive malevalence.
They would sometimes give us little things like bit of glass or stones and fossils that were very common in the area. I still have a few of these objects to this day.
Full eye covering contact lenses were not yet in production I dont think.
These encounters are the only real "paranormal" experience that I have ever experienced. I HAVE NO EXPLANATION FOR THESE EXPERIENCES! Also I have several very old and dear friends that were with me at the times.

EDIT FOR SPELLING

thanks xynephadyn for the lovely info about this town.
shame i dont hav anything to contribute.
shame that no one that let them in is around to talk to us

man, some of those experiences got me cracking up, < all I know is if anybody come within 20 yards of me , without me knowing them and them not sayin anything, besides just asking to use the phone inside my house, Id have my gun drawn and ready to blast some punks< it might sound bad but Im not takin any chances with anybody, already learned my lessons with that. and with that other story where they say it became like a regular thing, WTF??? are you kidding me, I wouldnt stand for that #%# I open up the door with a twelve gauge, Are you feelin lucky, well are ya punk? Make MY Day im saying this with all do respect.

I used to see a lot of black eyed kids at parties and stuff when I was younger.... Drugs.

I'm sorry to say this, but encounters with black eye kids, sounds more like encounters with JUNKIES.

Most drugs will expand your pupil until it covers your entire eye and only your black pupil can be seen. You will have black eyes.

They will be high, and looking for money, they will be sketchy, trying to get into your place, or get you into a dark alley. It will seem demonic to people who don't understand that kind of life.

They will appear to have black eyes, and do anything to rob you.

Meth junkies, especially have complete black eyes, and will often try to get into your house all the time.

It's Drugs 100%.

That story reminds me of a book I read where in it there were dog like creatures who had to ask for permission to go through doors, windows, and any other entrences into a building. That may not be the case here but, it's an idea.

I have met a few blond kids actually in the last 4 years who have filled me with complete dread like they wanted to take my life....I think they just had brown eyes though, and they had the white part. I know their parents etc, so they aren't fictional kids who I couldn't prove exsist.....I do know that I will indeed aovid them like the black plague for the rest of my life...they were sinister.

yeah, and what is with this asking permission to abuse or do harm crap latley...my ex keeps doing this, and then looking so frustrated that I say NO to voluntary abuse...I definatly think he has a demon from being an alcoholic and cocaine addict....

i never heard about black eyed kids until just recently when i had an expieriance
i was out the back yard feeding the dog after just coming home from work when she wouldnt come from the side to eat.
now thats odd straight away cos my dog loves food so i went around to see what she was upto
as i walked towards her she didnt budge or even make a sound and thats when i noticed two children on the other side of the gate
"can i help you?" i asked thinking who the hell is this
they said that my dog was their dog and i replied i dont think so guys do you think im stupid they then asked if they could enter the backyard to talk about it and i said that through the gate was fine but really there was nothing to talk about because this isnt your dog
they became a bit insistant about coming into the yard and thats when i started to get a bit suss as to why
i asked them why they insisted so much and why the gate wasnt fine to talk through when one of them got really agitated and started to raise his voice but with a nasty sneer in it
thats when i felt my hairs stand on edge and couldnt figure why
i decided to tell them to leave and go inside with my dog but as i told them to F off they looked me dead in the eyes and thats when i noticed the full black eyes
at first i just stood there and wondered but felt myself getting sleepy in a sense but aware it felt like it was just me and them and nothing else
i managed to snap myself out of it grabbed my dog which was also refusing to leave the gate for some reason unknown and went inside checked the front and back doors were locked grabbed my samurai sword from my room and thought about it for a second
i wonder if they will leave or not so thought i would have a look through the front door to see if they were still there
nope nothing out the front but what if they opened the gate and came in the back
i went and checked and nope nothing
ok i thought at least thats over now apparently theres been a few dogs going missing in the last few weeks prior to this happening i dont know if it would have had any link to this but it is odd for around here any thoughts?
