Episode 61: Children of the Popcorn

This week we're talking about Black Eyed Children, a creepypasta-esque legend of spooky black-eyed kids showing up and demanding to be let in. We zero in closely on the first appearance of the story, popularized in an internet mailing list, and try to determine where it came from, and if it may have inspired and led to the countless instances that followed it. Spooky stories are kind of magical, but we're skeptics at heart, so we decided to see where this one would take us.
