Blair Witch Page #3

- Oh my god.

- Oh boy.

- Oh Lane.

- Yeah.

- Ehh.

- Yeah.

- Eww.

- I'm really uncomfortable with this.

- Ew, I don't want it!

- Why do you have to eat it like that?

- I didn't think...

You could eat a little bit quicker,

you don't have to go all slow like that.

- Oh god.

- Oh.

Okay, so...

The Blair Witch.

Who is she really?

Elly Kedward.

That's what most people say.

She was accused of witchcraft

after some of the children in town

said that she's taking

blood from them.

There wasn't much of

a trial system back then.

The townspeople took her

out into these woods.

Tied her to a tree and

left her to die of exposure.

In the spring, they went back

to look for her body

but there was no trace of it.

They assumed she was eaten

by animals or something, but...

Then people in town

started disappearing.

First the children who accused her

and their families, then others.

Eventually everyone who was left just

abandoned their homes, fled the town.

- Whoa.

- What?

- What?

- Alright, I was just going to add.

According to this book

I read, published in 1809,

they didn't just tied

Elly Kedward to a tree.

I mean they did tie her to a tree,

but they tied her up really high

and they strung these

heavy rocks to her arms and legs

as weights stretching her.

They left her to die

on a makeshift rack.

Okay.

Thanks.

Ever since there's been

a curse on these woods.

The legend says if you

look directly at the witch

you'll die just from

the fright of it.

That's why Rustin Parr

stood in that corner.

They say no one has ever seen her

and live to talk about it.

Or alternately, no one

has ever seen her appear yet.

These are just stories, okay.

I've been to these woods before.

When I was a kid with about

a hundred other people.

You were a part of those

search teams?

I remembered that.

Yeah.

So, how come I'm okay?

Nothing got me then.

Maybe it did.

You're back, right?

Alright, real theory, real theory.

The one I put online.

Whatever spell the witch

put on these woods,

you have to be out here at night

for her to get you.

You have to spend the night.

Wait, then how come

you're still alive?

That's a good point.

Maybe she's using us

to lure you all out here.

- Okay, I had enough of that crap.

- Yeah, me too.

Let's get some rest.

We got a lot of ground to cover tomorrow.

- Night, dudes.

- Yeah, goodnight.

- Goodnight, James.

- Goodnight.

I just heard something

moving outside.

Sh*t.

Sh*t!

Hey, Lisa.

Lisa, what the hell

are you doing?

- Did you hear that out there?

- Yeah, I heard.

There is something out there

out in the woods like a bear or...

Shhh.

Shhhh.

What the f*** was that?

- It's okay. It's my walkie-talkie.

- Oh. Shhhit.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Peter, is that you?

Comm check.

Hey, man.

What the hell was that?

F***.

I don't know, man.

I don't know.

You okay?

Yeah, yeah.

We're okay. We're okay.

Lisa's here too, we're okay.

I mean, she just came like

just now and we're okay.

- Like 30 seconds ago.

- Hey, is everyone okay out there?

Yeah, we're fine.

You two, good?

No.

Lane's not here.

- Where is he?

- Well, he went off to pee.

But he always goes

far off for privacy.

Oh god.

Hey, Lane!

Lane!

Lane!

Oh, god damn it.

We should probably

go look for him right?

- Make sure he's okay.

- No.

- No.

No, I'm not going out there.

- That is definitely not a good idea.

- Well, I'm gonna go and look for a while.

Okay, I'll come with you.

Uh. Sh*t.

He might be... lost, okay.

- I'll be right back.

- Okay.

I guess I'll... I should probably

go back to my tent then.

You can stay here

if you want.

- Okay.

- Yeah?

- Okay.

- Alright.

- I'll be right back soon.

- Alright.

- Hey.

- Good luck, man.

- Careful. Over there.

- Thanks.

Lane!

Lane!

Lane!

God, where is he?

Lane!

Lane!

Lane!

Did you see the tree

that fell?

It sounded like

it landed nearby.

Yeah, but...

Sounds can travel

pretty far out here.

Sh*t!

Lane!

- Lane, what the f***?

- I'm sorry, man. I'm sorry.

- Tell me you recorded those sounds.

Did you get those sounds?

- Uh, no.

Yeah, yeah.

Lisa and I are recording.

I went to see if I could find

what was making those noises.

I couldn't find anything.

Did you guys find anything?

- No, dude. Just...

- No.

... get back to the camp, okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

Okay.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

Okay.

You guys, get out here.

No.

I'm getting out of here.

I'm unpacking and leaving.

This is f*** up.

Holy sh*t.

I want to go home, okay.

Where'd this stuff come from?

Someone must have put these things up

while we were asleep.

What's going on?

What's wrong?

We should film this.

Talia, get the camera.

- You guys should be taking pictures.

- What is it?

- What?

- You guys, seriously.

I want to go home now.

We need to get out of here.

Hey James, that's not

a bad idea, okay?

- We are not prepared for this.

- Okay.

I've seen this stuff before.

It was in Heather's footage, guys.

Sh*t.

There's another one back here.

- That's my tent!

- F***.

Does anybody know what time it is?

My watch is saying 2 PM.

What? How is it even possible?

We just woke up.

- But how did we sleep

till 2 in the afternoon.

- Yeah.

- Okay. Okay, yeah.

- Yeah.

- Please, you know.

You know what? Ashley's right.

Let's just...

pack up our stuff and

get back to my car, okay.

No, no, no.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Yeah.

This is too weird.

- I don't know.

We found something, right?

- Yeah.

Like, we can show the footage to the police.

Maybe they'll reopen Heather's case.

Wait.

I want to get that on camera.

I'll get this free.

Let me just...

Just rip it off the tree,

for Christ's sake.

Holy sh*t.

Let me give this a shot,

just a shot.

I have an idea. Why don't you stay here

and get all the footage you want.

Alright, that's it. Come on.

Turn it off. Turn it off.

I want to get a shot

at it, okay?

F*** this.

So.

Hey, what kind of

a camera is that, man?

Oh.

It's a DV camera.

- Oh yeah?

- It's old.

Good in low light.

It's better than modern cameras.

Mm-mm, okay.

Does it use tapes,

like the one you found or is it...

You know, there are not too

many brands of it anymore. Why?

- Oh nothing, I'm just curious.

- Oh, I recommend it.

Everything is cards now but...

Some ways, you know, tapes are

more reliable and cheaper.

You still have to carry

a lot of batteries though.

Oh yeah.

Ow!

Ahh.

- Ashley.

- Babe.

- You, alright? You, okay?

- What's wrong?

I'm fine.

It's just my foot.

- You want to take the boot off.

- No, it just hurt for a second.

But, it feels fine now.

- Can you feel that?

- Yeah.

- Does that hurt?

- It's fine.

Hey, Lane.

Lane. Stop it.

Stop it!

- What the f*** are you doing?

- What is this?

- This looks familiar, doesn't it, guys?

- Yeah, that's a rope.

I'm carrying that because

it's used for camping.

- Give back to me.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

- Hey. Hey. Hey.

- Give it back.
