Oddity Poddity: A Paranormal Podcast

"You have to let us in": Stories of Black Eyed Kids

Oddity Poddity Season 1 Episode 4

In 1996, Texas journalist Brian Bethel encountered two children who demanded to be let inside his car. What made him yeet out of there instead of helping them was the fact that the kids had solid black eyes. After sharing his story, similar tales from people who were approached by Black Eyed Kids began to fill the internet. Are BEKs simply an urban legend? Or are they supernatural beings that need permission to be let inside before they can do their damage? Listen and let me know what you think!
