Https://As far as I could tell from the more decent of the google results -most were rubbish- the "phenomenon" is strictly urban legend - or if it isn't, it has yet to be documented by any remotely creditable source. I did a little research and it seems as though the meme got started in 1998 and really took off in 2013 - see the Snopes article below: Granted, I have never listened to Coast to Coast (though now I am curious since it does sound entertaining) but I have heard of the black eyed kids legend. The plan was to have someone open the door and then rush them and rob them. We recently had a woman going around where we once lived sporting a "head wound" asking for help and to use the phone. Please keep in mind, its not uncommon for people to use children or women to lure someone outside to rob or harm them.
What you may be hearing or seeing are possibly some party kids or someone hopped up on some rather strange stuff. Now a days the legend is once a child is allowed into your home, they can cause madness to the point to suicide. Once that happens, according to both legends, they can cause harm (blood draining, possession, death, dragging you to Hell, etc.). They must be invited/allowed into the home. Didn't last long before someone spooked them with a firearm, but what do you expect when you knock on someone's door at 2AM.īlack eyed children follow an age old tale about vampires. We had a few teens during Halloween come up to doors wearing sclera contacts (btw, they're Hell to put in if you're a newbie to contacts). I have been a fan since I was a kid thanks to my dad.Īlthough C2C has awesome guests and the open lines on Friday are rather interesting, Black eye Children have always been up to debate. This isn't a new accurence, has happened in every place I've lived.Īh yes, good old Coast to Coast. It only happens once in a day, it doesn't come back a second time that day.Īnyone have a idea what I keep experiencing? I used to listen to Coast to Coast and they said at one time, people will get a knock and there would be children with Black eyes and want you to open the door so they could stay there with you and haunt you, but I have never seen them or anyone standing at my door after a knock.
I know about certain things to watch out for. Those incidents are no where near my room. Since we have had quite few visits from the police and paramedics, I thought it was due to all the people who either OD or have died. There is a lot of young kid partiers and homeless. Since this place is always busy so when it first started happening I didn't think anything of it cuz I just thought they had the wrong room. This has happened at least 3 times a year and I have been there almost 5 years. It was only a matter of seconds from me getting up to look through the peep hole and the knock and the voice saying hello, when I looked there was no one there. There was one time when I was alone, it was at 100am and that knock came and it was a woman who knocked because she said hello. He got up and looked through the peep hole no one was there. I am usually alone when it happens, but yesterday at Midnight my son is with me and he heard it too. It's a weak knock that can be identified as either a child or a woman's. When I look through the perp hole, there's no one there. Since I have been living at this motel in Ontario, I have had knocks at my door at different times at Midnight and 2am.
