The Blair Witch Project and the Real Town of Burkittsville
At the 1999 Sundance Film Festival, missing person posters and confused whispers circulated about a movie that was a compilation of real video footage shot by three hikers who were killed under strange and mysterious circumstances. It was very clear from the festival guides that The Blair Witch Project was a work of fiction, and it made the writer-director duo Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez the talk of the festival.
The Blair Witch Project’s theatrical release’s genius marketing strategy made the line between fact and fiction even blurrier. The $30,000 indie film became a $140 million blockbuster phenomenon and also helped popularize an entire “found”-footage subgenre in the process. The movie also managed to convince large audiences that the myth was real. The thing is… only part of the myth was real. Burkittsville, where the demonic spirit of the film lives, was an ordinary town in Maryland. What residents didn’t know was that the Blair Witch hype would haunt them for years to come.
Faking History
Even the most ridiculous myths are born. They got to start somewhere. The Blair Witch legend began when Myrick and Sánchez mapped out a plan that would eventually become The Blair Witch Project. Step one was to pitch a video.
Produced in 1998, the film details the exploits of a witch named Elly Kedward, who was banished from the colonial town of “Blair, Maryland,” after being accused of trying to steal blood from children. A child “went missing” in the forest in the late 1800s, and when he returned, one of the search parties looking for him was found dismembered.
The Legendary Myth
In 1940 Burkittsville, an old hermit named Rustin Parr, hailed down from the Black Hills Forest saying he was “finished.” He had just killed seven children in his woodland home and blamed it on the Blair Witch. The lost footage was discovered at the ruins of Rustin Parr’s house.
Ben Rock joined the team as a production designer for The Blair Witch Project. He recalled the myth’s origins and was, admittedly, “a little obsessed with anagrams back then.” Rock decided to take the name of British occultist Edward Kelly (he and John Dee were said to bring people back from the dead) and ended up with the witch’s name.
Rustin Parr
Rustin Parr’s name also didn’t come out of the blue. The name started off as an anagram from Rasputin. With a sketched-out back story, Myrick and Sánchez were free to drop victims into the middle of it.
Heather Donahue, Michael C. Williams, and Joshua Leonard “disappeared in the black hills of the forest in 1991.” But before that, Myrick and Sánchez needed a starting point for the film. That’s when all the trouble in Burkittsville, MD began. This is how The Blair Witch Project literally made history.
