Black-Eyed Children: Terrifying Urban Legends (Book 6)

They knock. They whisper. They want to come in.

It starts with a midnight knock. Two children wait on the porch—pale, polite, insistent. At first glance, they seem normal. Until you notice their eyes. Solid black, empty, endless.

Daniel Mercer thought they were pranksters. Then the power failed, the pets vanished, and his sister swore she saw them watching through the window. Everywhere he turns, people whisper the same warnings: Don’t invite them in. Once they know your name, they never stop.

As the children spread through town, more neighbors vanish. Phones glitch, reflections warp, and chalk symbols appear where the victims once stood. Daniel realizes too late that the children aren’t asking permission. They’re choosing. And when they choose you, escape isn’t an option.

The Black-Eyed Children is the sixth standalone novella in Terrifying Urban Legends, the chilling series by Silas Toombs. Perfect for fans of:

• Creepypasta legends and internet horror myths
• Claustrophobic, suburban nightmares
• Fast-paced horror novellas you can’t put down
• Folklore that feels too real to be fiction

The knock is coming. Whatever you do, don’t answer.
