Will the night crawlers come?

I live in the mountains, which has a clay based dirt. In my back yard, the dirt is solid, full of prickly weeds, and rocks, assuming no worms would want to crawl on this.
Next door my neighbors have grass in their yard, I usually am able to find night crawlers here after a good rain.
In my back yard, where the property line separates the dirt from the grass, I decided to soak the dirt, and dig a hole ones the water seeped in enough to pool up when I dug the hole.
I filled the hole with the green weeds which grew in my garden, and leaves off of the oak tree. Along with some other leaves and flowers I picked off of some other weeds which were growing.
I made sure to break them up pretty good, and even filled in the hole with some light yellow wood shavings, from a large bag, which some farmers I believe use for bedding for their animals.
I use these same shavings for the worms I have held in captivity, which are keeping my worms alive and healthy.
After I filled up the hole, I placed the dirty on top to fill in the holes.
After this I placed a wooden plank on top of this.
So my question is, will there be night crawlers in this pile? Will they hang out below the wood, which can be lifted to find some curled up on the dirt?
I also have one of those big forks, I forget the actual name, which someone once said he dug it into the dirt, turning it over, to find hundreds of night crawlers.
Will this work that way? How long will it take for my compost pile to eventually turn into dirt, and mud, to attract the worms?
Is there anything else I might add?
Thank you for any answers, advice, opinions and what not.
Please add any little detail you think you might add, even if someone else said so already.

One other thing. There are no street lights up here, so at night it’s completely dark. Because of this, I notice the night crawlers running from the red light that I use. I tried green, and blue as well. They still run. I even put tissue over the light to dim it a bit, and even stood up a little higher all though it makes it difficult to see them.
I have been having a lot of trouble finding them now because of this, unless there is a big rain, the few that are out run from the light due to the fact they are only out about half way, making it easy to notice it.

what do you think i should do?

Okay so i got prego with my daughter when i was 18 then got kicked out then when i was 19 my mom dropped my 2 sisters off at my house and never came back to get them and so i got full custody of them and it ruined my sisters they have never been the same i am now 20 and taking care of my daughter and my 2 sisters and am 3 months prego. well my 2 sisters are 4 and 14 and they miss my mom so much and they cry every night and they still do my 4 year old sister made me put a phone in her room so she could hear it if my mom ever called and there will be times when she wants to go on a walk and look for mommy and it hurts me so much because i accualy got in touch with my mom a year ago which was 2 months after she dropped them off with me and she told me she never wanted to see the brats again and i just wish she could see what shes doing to my sisters she is tearing them apart my 14 year old sister takes it easier then the 4 year old. 2 weeks ago i found out where my mom is staying and was trying to figure out weather i should go by and talk to her and see if theres anyway she would come back in my sisters lives or if i should take them by to see her because today which is mothers day my 4 year old sister picked flowers out of the garden and came to me and said can we find mommy and give these to her because i know how much she loves them and that just tore me up its so sad watching them cry every night wishing she would come back. in a way i really do not want my mom to come back in there lives because she is not stable at all and i know she will just run off and leave them again and i do not want then to go through that again i do not think they could handle it and so im leaning more towards not contacting my mom and leaving it alone but then i feel like im letting my sisters down and not helping them see there mom again but i know she does not want to see them because if she did she would of came by to see them because she knows where i live its been a year since they have seen her so i guess it probably would be better if i leave it alone and not contact her right? so do you think it would be better off for them to talk or see there mom again or if i should just leave it alone and tell them that i can not find mom and that she loves them but needs time away? so please suggestions are wanted
