Initial data
This incident happened to my fiance in April 2011. So far, she refuses to talk about it, but I decided to post it here to see what others can learn from it. Then we lived in Bangor, Maine. That evening it was about 22: 30.
I was on a late shift at work, and she was home alone with our cat in our apartment. She said she read while the cat was sleeping in her lap. Suddenly, the cat sat up suddenly and stared at the door leading out. Then he began to meow and rushed into the bedroom. He had never acted like this before, so she thought it was just another weird thing that cats did. As she settled back into her seat, the doorbell rang.
It seemed strange to her that anyone would want to visit her at this time of night. She stood up and peered through the hole, but saw nothing. So she turned away from the door when there were three loud bangs. She was immediately startled, but curiosity got the better of her, and she opened the door a crack to see who was there.
She saw a boy about 11 or 12 years old, though rather short, standing there. She opened the door to ask him what he wanted. She assumed that this child was either locked in another apartment, or he was asking for help. Then he looked at her, and she noticed his eyes. The light from the apartment spilled into the hallway, confirming that his eyes were completely black.
She said she was paralyzed with shock when the child asked to be let in. By then, the cat had come out of the bedroom and was lying on the floor behind her, covering its ears and hissing. She said she felt obliged to say yes, but looking into those coal-black eyes, she suddenly slammed the door and bolted it.
She said she listened for the child's footsteps in the hallway, but didn't hear anything. After a few terrifying minutes, she looked out the door, and the child was gone - or gone. She said she had never been so afraid in her life. She thought that the cat's hiss might have interrupted her paralysis, allowing her to recover and quickly close the door. She never talks about it, though I'm sure she wonders what might have happened if she'd let a black-eyed boy into the apartment.

Summary: This incident involved my fiance in April, 2011. To this day she refuses to talk about it, but I decided to submit it here to see what others can get out of it. We then lived in Bangor, Maine. It was around 10:30PM that evening. I was on a late shift at work and she was home alone with our cat in our apartment. She said she was reading while the cat was sleeping on her lap. All at once, the cat suddenly sat up and stared intently at the door leading outside. He then began mewling and scampered into the bedroom. He had never acted like that before so she assumed it was just another weird thing that cats did. Just as she got comfortable again, the doorbell rang. She thought it was strange that someone would want to visit at that time of night. She got up and peeked through the hole, but saw nothing. So she turned away from the door, when there were three loud knocks. She was immediately alarmed, but curiosity got the best of her and she cracked the door to see who was there. She saw a boy of around 11 or 12, though fairly short, standing there. She opened the door to ask what he wanted. She assumed that this child had either gotten locked out of another apartment or was asking for help. That’s when he looked up at her, and she noticed his eyes. The light from the apartment spilled out into the hallway, affirming that his eyes were completely black. She said she was paralyzed with shock as the child asked to be let in. By that time, the cat had come out of the bedroom and laid on the floor behind her, ears folded back and hissing. She said she felt compelled to say ‘yes’ but as she stared into those coal black eyes she suddenly slammed the door and locked the deadbolt. She said she listened for the child’s footsteps in the hallway, but she heard nothing. After several terrifying minutes, she peeked out the door and the child was gone – or disappeared. She said she had never been so scared in her life. She thought the cat hissing may have interrupted her paralysis, allowing her to regain her thoughts and quickly close the door. She never discusses it, though I’m sure she wonders what may have happened if she had let the blacked eyed boy into the apartment. Claude
