A couple is driving home on backroads in the Pocono Mountains area of Pennsylvania. They observe 2 young girls dressed in century-old clothing. Getting nearer, they notice that they have black eyes.
The following account was forwarded to me:
"In 2013 I moved with my family into a 6-bedroom home on 14 acres in the Poconos Mountains in Pennsylvania. My father and I noticed very weird things going on the second we moved in, but my mother and sister seemed to not notice these things.
There is some evidence that the entire area where this house is located is haunted. The area is known for its early indigenous tribe activity.
My uncle on my mother’s side and his girlfriend come to visit my parent's home. They do this quite often as my parents always have people over for beer, games, bonfires, etc. I just want to start off by saying my uncle is a non-believer. I have never seen him really scared of anything or anyone.
My uncle and his girlfriend are playing foosball with my parents when they realize it is 12:30 am so they decide to head home. They take all back roads and once they turn onto Running Valley Road (6 minutes from the house). My uncle’s girlfriend saw two figures (they were pretty far away at this point) but it was two small figures waiting to cross the road. Just to mention there was nothing out here. No houses (besides one abandoned that was still two miles up the road ) Only thing in the vicinity was a cave. These figures were attempting to cross the road to go into the woods, which was very odd because of the time and location.
They are now approaching these figures (headlights start to shine directly on them). Both my uncle and his girlfriend, see two young girls aged 9-11 approximately. One much bigger than the other. Wearing what my uncle best describes as “Early 1900s church clothing.” Like dresses to the knee, with white cotton shawls or cropped sweaters, and flats. Weird right? WTF are two 10-year-olds doing at 12:30 am in the middle of nowhere wearing church clothing? They also noticed the bigger child had her arms wrapped around the smaller one. Like you would do if she was hurt, scared, or cold?
At this point, my uncle's girlfriend is like, “It’s children, we need to stop and help!” Now at this point, the truck is almost right next to the little girls. Both had their heads held down. So then the bigger of the two starts to pick her head up to look at the passing vehicle. Then both my uncle and his girlfriend noticed the girl had black eyes! She says, “WTF was that? You saw that right? OMG turn around and go back right now.” My uncle was scared, took off, and didn't turn back.
They get home and get into an argument because she wants to drive back and see what is up. She grabbed her own car keys and my uncle basically was like, “You're not going back there, we are never going on that road again.”
He calls my parents in an extreme panic and tells them and they start bugging him because they know he would never lie or be THAT freaked out if it wasn’t warranted. So my mom starts to tell me everything (mind you, my family knows NOTHING about black-eyed kids, never heard of it before). I send my mom an article to forward to my uncle with some of the very basic information."
NOTE: I'm not sure if these we corporeal girls with black eyes or if they were a manifestation of spirit energy. Either way, it's a creepy encounter. Lon
