The Blair Witch is a fictional character that centralizes a series of films known as "The Blair Witch Project." The first two films, "The Blair Witch Project" and "Book of Shadows" have been released; the third is in production. In the films, a series of mishaps occur to various groups of young adults, alledgedly prompted by actions from the ghost of said Witch, who allegedly tortured and killed children in the woods of Maryland. The first film was done on a very low budget, doctumentary-style, and as such many people believed that footage they watched (of the psychological torture and eventual deaths of three young adults trapped in the woods) was real. A web-site further provoked this belief.
