Well I am thoroughly freaked out. Weather its kids playing pranks or something els the whole idea of a stranger coming up to you or to your home or just stare at you like the stories tell is just creepy. You have no idea who this people are they could be a rapist a serial killer, part of a gang initiation, and I'm not talking about ha ha you have to scare some one to be one of us I'm talking about the type of initiation in which they have to inflict bodily harm. If this happened to me I'd have a feeling of dread too, no matter what color eyes the person has. There are some crazy people out there.
2012? Seriously? I survived Y2K, 9/11, 6/6/6, 9/9/9, H1N1, & Swine Flu. BRING IT ON!!!

No, this is not an 'excuse' or 'back peddling' ..
BEK's are not 'new'. I use to frequent groups that I called "psi-kiddies" … they were talking about their "BEK" scares in these groups.
I'll have to go do some digging, in that I've not frequented them for a good few years now. Only so much "psi-kiddies" one can take, before it gets "old", in that you get tired of the stories …..
With Christmas and such coming up … I'll be honest, I'll get 'to it' like more after the Holidays.
You're quite right, BEK encounters are not new. I have one that dates back to 1950, well before the era of contact lenses.
I've culled through a couple of hundred of these reports, and yes a lot of them can be attributed to pranksters. Especially when older teens or young adults are involved. There are many reports however that can not be explained away.
Since you're talking about multiple, organized groups practicing this kind of hoax, what do they call themselves? How can I search for them on the net or otherwise? I assume psi-kiddies is your nickname for them. I really curious to learn about a group carrying out this kind of hoax for such a long period of time.

Yes these are not knew. Here was what I did back 'then'. I would listen to on-line chats (Yahoo! – MSN and such.)
I listened (read) the chats going on. Something would catch my attention and I would follow-up and/or have my son (teen then) follow-up for me.
I would also ask, "Wow, does anyone know about …(fill in paranormal event – aka – BEKS) .. and again listen (read) … and sometimes I would get leads … "Oh, go check out this or that group." They didn't have "official names" … just kids doing these things for a "laugh". Teen groups and such. Why I would have my son help me. He would be able to better relate to them … He enjoyed helping dad investigate various trends and such going on, especially in the Paranormal/Psi realm. My son is now 26 … so this tells you how long ago this was. He was early – mid teens then.
The problem with the older 'reports' is they are really hard to follow-up on. You only have what amounts to "hear-say".
Then you have the problem of people not wanting to admit they've been 'fooled/douped'. So they try to 'save face', by feeding and building on other reports, so they 'look good'. Just like the "BIGFOOT" reports … how do you sort through the 'facts' from the 'fiction'??
Like I said, I'll have to do some digging … I am honestly not even sure now if any of those groups are even around anymore. I know Microsoft killed all their 'on-line groups'.
Go to YAHOO! Groups and type in Black Eyed Kids – or BEKS – or the prior with Gags, pranks, jokes and such. This is what I would have to do now, myself. Use various phrases along those lines and see if a group triggers memory.

Very true Pynki, it's good to use caution if approached by anything like this.
A lot of people believe that the BEK mystery is solved simply because black contacts are available but it just doesn't hold water against some of the encounters. Wether they're human or otherwise, they clearly do not have good intent.

I had a HOLY **** moment today. I was telling my sister about this stuff and then -the moment- YEARS ago i was at a friends house and had a very smiler experience to one of the BEK. I even posted it back in the scifi forums. I just spent like an hour over there looking for my post but no luck. any one from back in the day remember it (or knows how to find it I even posted a diagram of the house remember remember) I wish my memory was as good as it used to be. It was just me and her and it was rather late and her parents were…somewhere we did end up calling the cops it was eerie and there was just something not right about it. Even the cops we told are story to seemed a little creeped out. Now I will always wonder. I know that post in hiding some where in the depths of the skiffy forum… I will find it.

I hope you can find the post or at least repost your experience. I for one would very much like to hear it.
