Davutlu köyü village

The village of Davutlu, or as it became known as the village of ancestors or the village of black magic in Turkey, after the incident of the black ancestors, kara dedeler olayı, which was buzzing with news stations at the time, but despite that, there is no confirmed information about the place of its occurrence, although most sources indicate that it occurred in Daudlu Village in Karlareli State which is now classified as one of the Magical Villages in Turkey.

The narratives about the story of davutlu are many and contradictory, including local and international, mostly intersecting by talking about black ancestors, the most bizarre part of the story. Its news spread after a documentary film was broadcast in 1989, known as the movie Black Grandparents, and it included the incident that the producing company claimed to have occurred in January 1989.

At that time, news agencies reported that the villagers had seen elves and strange creatures after dark. This prompted many people to refrain from going out at night and impose a night curfew in the village, which attracted the attention of a newly graduated journalist, so he went to the village and began to investigate the reasons for what was happening. The journalist stayed for eleven days in the village, during which he conducted interviews with the villagers there. He recorded his interviews with his camera. Villagers reported seeing strange creatures after dark. They persuaded the young journalist to stay in the village.

The journalist experienced strange and difficult events throughout his stay in the village. He decided to leave the village and return to his city. At the insistence of the villagers, he left his camera to a fourteen-year-old child there. The child records the western events likely to occur in the village. And he was sending it to the journalist. Three days after the journalist left the village, the civil police arrested him from his home in Istanbul and confiscated the photos and videos he had taken in the village for interrogation.

Following the investigation that was conducted regarding the photographs taken in the village. The bodies of seven villagers were disintegrated, including the child who took the camera from the journalist, so that the villagers would not panic because of this incident, they were told that it was a felony and the dead were buried secretly under the supervision of the security forces.

But despite this, most of the villagers left their homes after this incident so that the village of Daoudlu is no longer referred to as the abandoned village in Turkey or the village of the Jinn in Turkey. The journalist was later released and investigations closed. But the curse of the village of Jinn did not end here, as the young journalist suddenly disappeared and on February 3, 1989, his clothes, shoes, notebook and personal belongings were found in a forest adjacent to the village without ever being found.

As for the officer who investigated the journalist, who specialized in witchcraft cases in Turkey, he also got his share, as he separated from his wife after a year and contracted a serious mental illness. He began receiving treatment in Istanbul. In 2006, he shot himself and died at the age of 59.

After his death, his daughter opened his safe and found three envelopes in it. One of them contains black and white photographs depicting frightening moments in the village, and in the other the notebook of the disappeared journalist and video recordings on which the incident “Black Grandparents 1989” is written. The first video included the journalist’s interviews with the people of the village, the second included a dialogue between him and his father, during which he inquired about the reason for staying in the village for a long time, and the third included the photos that the child had taken in the village.

The officer’s daughter fell into a state of panic that followed her for a long time. In 1990, she was forced to sell the videos due to her poor financial conditions.

Some researchers go to the fact that the incident of black ancestors has nothing to do with its counterparts in the events of the jinn or magic in Turkey, and they attribute the reasons.
