This BEK account had a few twists and turns associated with it, including a claim of property ownership filed by the black-eyed family. An interesting and bizarre report.
Here is an account that I received in January 2012:
"Mr. Strickler - I was listening to one of your early radio interviews with researcher David Weatherly because I am seeking information concerning black-eyed children. I hope it is OK to direct my concerns directly to you.
I am a widow with a teenage daughter in Casper, Wyoming, west of the city near the county airport. The property had been in my husband's family for many years. I recently purchased an adjacent home and property after the owner passed away. This is where the story actually begins.
I settled on the new property just after Thanksgiving. Since it was purchased 'as is' it was fairly inexpensive but requires a lot of work. I hired an auction house to come in and remove the contents for future sale. The auction was scheduled for next week, but a few odd things happened when the items were first listed for sale.
I received a phone call from the auctioneer a few weeks ago. He wanted to know if I had any knowledge concerning the contents of the house. I told him that I didn't know the owner that well but that I did know that he had lived on the property since the 1950s. The auctioneer said that a young woman came into the auction house and told him that the property and contents were stolen and that it belonged to her family in North Dakota. She didn't give her name but assured him that she had documentation to prove her assertions and that she planned to take legal action if the sale continued. I contacted my attorney and the realtor who verified that the property sale was legal and that there were no prior claims to it.
The young woman, who was described as 'very plain, thin with long red hair,' has not been heard from since. It was decided that the auction would continue as scheduled.
Then this past Tuesday, New Year's Day around noon, someone rang the doorbell. I was in the kitchen and I knew my daughter would answer the door. I heard the door open and the voice of a young girl. My daughter soon yelled loudly 'Mom, come here!' As I walked down the hallway toward the door I noticed 3 girls standing on the porch. They stood without movement staring directly at me. As I approached, I was shocked when I noticed that their eyes were completely black in color. I asked if I could help them. The tallest girl asked if they could come in to talk about the house and property I had recently purchased.
I immediately replied that we were busy and that I would give them the phone number of my attorney if they had any inquiries. They just turned and walked away without saying anything else. Each of the girls had blonde hair and wore heavy winter clothing with boots. They seemed to be in their early teens. I watched as they walked toward the highway and eventually lost sight of them.
Since then we have not been contacted by anyone concerning the property. The auction has been postponed for other reasons and has not been rescheduled. My attorney continues to research the property records for any other information.
I suppose the most important question is - who are these children? Do I need to be concerned? I look forward to your comments." SA
NOTE: At the time I received this account, I contacted 'SA' to detail other black-eyed kids' reports that I had received over the years. SA's account is very different since it seems that these particular BEKs may well be related to the former neighbor.
A few months after I received this account, SA contacted me and stated that the property was sold at auction, but her attorney placed the receipts in escrow until the claims could be legally decided. Apparently, the black-eyed woman, who was the older sister of the 3 BEKs, had filed suit. As far as what occurred later, I was unable to make contact with SA. Lon
