Somewhere in the Skies
![]()
Episode Summary: Ryan speaks with Brian Bethel, arguably the first ever witness to come across the Black-Eyed Kids (BEKs) phenomenon. In 1996, Bethel was parked in a desolate parking lot when two young boys began to knock on his window, begging and pleading for a ride home. What happened next would completely terrify Bethel and change the rest of his life.
Since this first account of these mysterious black-eyed children, thousands of stories have permeated through both word-of-mouth and online lore, sparking a phenomenon that has grown in both mystery and debate. Bethel recounts that harrowing night, how his story ultimately was leaked and went viral at the advent of the internet, and just exactly what he believes may lay behind the dark, soulless eyes of the black-eyed kids. ![]()
Guest Bio: A mild-mannered reporter by day, by night Brian Bethel is a mild-mannered reporter (usually) home from work. He likes a variety of things, from computers to video games, from comic books to role-playing games, to reading to board gaming. He likes games a lot, come to think of it. He also enjoys writing, and he hopes someday to become not “the next” anybody but someone entirely himself.

Allen thanks for calling me a liar. Hey before you engage your high horse you might want to consider that people who have experienced the paranormal have a real tough time stringing the events together without stuttering. Out of respect for someone like Ryan, someone who gives these people a place just to be heard without arrogant ass wipes like you slandering their name and calling them liars, its often times best to write it so it's concise, so the account doesn't take time away from Ryan's main guest. I also didn't know, thank you for self righteously clearing it all up, that all people who have demonic encounters also have average or below average vocabulary. Please cite these findings, I'm interested in reading those case studies. Good riddance.

Luke, if you were concerned about someone associating your name with an opinion that you are less-than-credible, why did you choose to publish your full name with your comment? If you just stuck with your first name, no one would know who you are because there are tens of thousands of people named Luke out there.

And let me be clear that when I am talking about what friends and family have told as stories, I am talking about ones in which they are intending to relate actual accounts. I do have a few friends and family who tell "fishing tales" or other exaggerated stories for the sake of humor and entertainment in which it is obvious that their intent is more to get laughs than to convince people they are accurately telling an account of a real event. I am not talking about those sorts of stories.
