Black Eyed Children

Black Eyed Children are entities/creatures that appear to be kids, normally between the ages of 6 -16 years old. They normally have pale skin and pitch black eyes with no iris. They will try to portray themselves as innocent and in need of help. They will always try to invade your personal space, be it your car, home or your personal bubble. 

They may:

1. Ask you for help
2. Ask to come into your home
3. Say they need to use your phone
4. If you refuse them, they will say its urgent : "You NEED to help me!" or "Youre the only one that can help me!" "It wont take long"
5. They will ring your door bell or knock incessantly until you answer the door
6. Never look into their eyes

If you interact with them for too long, or happen to look into their eyes, you may start to feel as if youre under their control, perhaps in a trance like state. 

There are various theories about what exactly these Black Eyed Children are. Some say they are nothing more than an urban legend or myth, and that is quite possible. As the more people talk about something, the more real it can become to people, especially with platforms like Creepy Pasta and Thought Catalog. 

Other theories include, but are not limited to the following:

"Black Eyed Children are a hybrid" - Now, this is possible because it wouldnt be the first time that weve come across a cross breed of some kind. There has been sightings of such and documentation of such things. Although we cannot conclusively say it is 100% a hybrid creature, its definitely not normal. 

"Black Eyed Children are aliens" - This is the theory that makes the most sense to me, other than "BEC are just a myth". There has been documentation of life on other planets and areas of our universe. There are also solid theories that we ourselves are aliens, and that its quite possible more strains of them are showing up on our planet through various methods. 

"Black Eyed Children are demons" - This theory is understandable but not likely in my opinion. While demons will try to appear as children sometimes, they normally wont show themselves as evil look children. They will try to appear normal looking, innocent, kind, trustworthy, subtle and try to fly under the radar. They normally wont show up as pushy children who lack an iris with abnormally pale skin. That would be far too obvious, especially since most people who have claimed to encounter Black Eyed Children, say theyve come across them in broad daylight in common places like their homes, the store or near their cars. 

"Black Eyed Children are interdimensional beings" - Now the main problem I have with this theory is that inter/intradimensional beings normally are straight out of a science fiction novel or movie. Now, one could make the argument that so are aliens. But, when I say alien, Im not talking about the big headed, green skinned, black eyed lanky creatures people have come to know. Im talking about beings that look just like us, if not slightly different. Im talking about beings that are human like, but not quite. A humanoid, if you will. (Though Im not fond of that term either, for the sake of keeping this simple and understandable well use that word.)

The exact origin of these "children" isnt quite clear, and I havent been able to trace an original post that wasnt from a scary story website. Below, I will summarize a few encounters that have been documented and shared, so you can get a better understanding of what an interaction with these "children" would be like. 

"Thinking back on it I know that my normal reaction to seeing children in a snowstorm would have been to rush them inside and bundle them up with some blankets and hot cocoa, but that’s not how this felt. The children were very unnerving. They would not make eye contact and when my husband asked them if everything was ok they asked if they could come in. My husband looked at me like “what do I do?” and I asked the kids where their parents were.

“They’ll be here soon,” is all they said. " (- weekinweird.com) 

The woman who submitted this story to the above website, also stated that whenever they asked the children any type of question, their answer was always "Our parents will be here soon." She also mentioned that their voiced were sing song in tone and her husband began to get dizzy, developing regular nose bleeds after the children finally left. But before these kids left, the power went out for over 30 minutes, along with unnerving feelings. In the weeks following, the woman claims her husband got nightly nose bleeds, three of her pets went missing, along with various other pains and misfortunes. 

YouTube sensation Shane Dawson, who is no stranger to paranormal topics also came out with a video claiming he too had an encounter with the Black Eyed Children. He also included various video clips, of supposed sightings of these "children". The video is well done, so I suggest you check it out. I will link it down below.
