Burn 210 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,343 Most of the time it wasn't anything to do with evil 211 00:13:07,344 --> 00:13:13,221 These were people that were trying to help through either natural lore, herbalism 212 00:13:13,222 --> 00:13:18,300 Any kind of medicine that may not have been standard practice 213 00:13:18,936 --> 00:13:20,036 Burn the witch 214 00:13:22,899 --> 00:13:26,161 But by the revolutionary war 215 00:13:26,162 --> 00:13:30,746 These trials, which were quite common at the time 216 00:13:30,747 --> 00:13:36,656 Had somewhat faded out and witchcraft had 217 00:13:38,114 --> 00:13:40,868 Was a thing of the past 218 00:13:40,869 --> 00:13:42,765 Except in the rural areas 219 00:13:42,766 --> 00:13:47,727 And there we had a lot of superstition among the populations 220 00:13:47,728 --> 00:13:50,779 And people still practiced witchcraft 221 00:13:50,780 --> 00:13:52,760 Two example come to my mind 222 00:13:53,777 --> 00:13:58,110 One being a 1786 case 223 00:13:58,111 --> 00:14:00,993 Of the blair witch of maryland 224 00:14:00,994 --> 00:14:07,254 The other one being the bell witch of adams, tennessee, in 1817 225 00:14:07,255 --> 00:14:12,358 Now, while both of these cases are interesting academically 226 00:14:12,359 --> 00:14:17,880 I find the blair witch of maryland the most colorful 227 00:14:17,881 --> 00:14:20,614 I mean what's your take on the blair witch at this point ? 228 00:14:20,615 --> 00:14:24,274 - Do you think she exists ? - I don't know 229 00:14:27,504 --> 00:14:30,864 This is burkittsville, formerly blair 230 00:14:31,427 --> 00:14:34,818 It is a small, quiet maryland town 231 00:14:34,819 --> 00:14:37,731 Much like a small quiet town anywhere 232 00:14:37,732 --> 00:14:41,310 I'm bill barnes i'm the executive director 233 00:14:41,311 --> 00:14:44,288 To the historical society here in burkittsville 234 00:14:44,289 --> 00:14:46,350 I've been that for quite a few years and 235 00:14:46,351 --> 00:14:48,629 Am know as the town historian 236 00:14:48,630 --> 00:14:52,608 And i've tried to keep up with our history and make it 237 00:14:52,609 --> 00:14:56,191 Be alive to the people that come behind me 238 00:14:56,192 --> 00:15:01,480 Burkittsville was actually founded on another old town by the name of blair 239 00:15:01,481 --> 00:15:08,253 And it was founded here in 1734 to protect the western approaches to baltimore 240 00:15:08,254 --> 00:15:11,875 From attack by the indians and so forth 241 00:15:11,876 --> 00:15:18,142 But it died out because of a witch 242 00:15:23,375 --> 00:15:25,736 Her name was ELLY KEDWARDS 243 00:15:25,737 --> 00:15:28,447 And she took a bunch of the children .. kidnapped them 244 00:15:28,448 --> 00:15:31,519 And carried them off into the woods and they never found them again 245 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,042 And the people became very afraid and they pulled up 246 00:15:34,043 --> 00:15:36,459 And left and abandoned the town 247 00:15:36,460 --> 00:15:39,966 And it stayed abandoned for 40 years 248 00:15:39,967 --> 00:15:43,532 Though records from this period of history are scarce 249 00:15:43,533 --> 00:15:47,755 This registry of the seafaring vessel the reliant 250 00:15:47,756 --> 00:15:50,378 Shows that a woman name ELLY KEDWARD 251 00:15:50,379 --> 00:15:53,909 The woman history has labeled as the BLAIR WITCH 252 00:15:53,910 --> 00:15:57,179 Did in fact sail from ireland to baltimore 253 00:15:57,180 --> 00:16:00,553 In the summer of 1769 254 00:16:01,136 --> 00:16:04,150 The blair witch story begins like 255 00:16:04,151 --> 00:16:08,478 All other witch stories with an old haggard lady 256 00:16:08,479 --> 00:16:11,513 And in this particular case she was a catholic 257 00:16:11,514 --> 00:16:15,602 Living in a predominantly protestant community 258 00:16:15,603 --> 00:16:19,070 The story goes that she had bled a few children 259 00:16:19,071 --> 00:16:21,178 And by the pinpricks 260 00:16:21,179 --> 00:16:25,351 Probably Cuz of some sort of illness that she detected 261 00:16:25,352 --> 00:16:27,508 Or something to that Effect 262 00:16:27,509 --> 00:16:30,403 The children went back and reported it to their parents 263 00:16:30,404 --> 00:16:34,257 This is, of course at that time an early sign of witchcraft 264 00:16:34,258 --> 00:16:38,619 She was tried summarily convicted and banished 265 00:16:38,620 --> 00:16:41,971 The winter she was banished was supposedly the worst ever 266 00:16:41,972 --> 00:16:43,998 And no one knows what happened to her 267 00:16:43,999 --> 00:16:46,739 She was left by herself out in the woods 268 00:16:46,740 --> 00:16:49,419 What they did was they blindfolded her 269 00:16:49,420 --> 00:16:51,288 took her out into the woods 270 00:16:51,289 --> 00:16:53,834 And this was in the middle of the winter 271 00:16:53,835 --> 00:16:56,863 Tied her to a tree and left her 272 00:16:56,864 --> 00:17:00,155 Where she soon succumbed to the elements 273 00:17:00,156 --> 00:17:04,411 The following year the young lady who was her first accuser 274 00:17:04,412 --> 00:17:07,600 And most of the other children who were her accusers 275 00:17:07,601 --> 00:17:09,348 And children of the village 276 00:17:09,349 --> 00:17:11,938 vanished throughout the course of the winter 277 00:17:11,939 --> 00:17:16,262 By the end of the winter over half the town's children has disappeared 278 00:17:16,263 --> 00:17:20,323 Immediately the townspeople blame these disappearances 279 00:17:20,324 --> 00:17:22,338 On elly the witch 280 00:17:22,339 --> 00:17:26,438 The people simply vacated the area.. they left 281 00:17:26,439 --> 00:17:28,312 They Abandoned the Community 282 00:17:28,313 --> 00:17:31,841 And they never spoke about the incident again 283 00:17:31,842 --> 00:17:33,387 As he related to me 284 00:17:33,388 --> 00:17:37,050 He had lived in a small town 40 miles to the north 285 00:17:37,051 --> 00:17:39,419 The place had been abandoned he told me 286 00:17:39,420 --> 00:17:41,610 As it had come under a curse 287 00:17:41,611 --> 00:17:46,259 The well-built homes That still stood there were boarded up and empty 288 00:17:46,260 --> 00:17:51,921 With no sign as to why their denizens had chosen to leave so abruptly 289 00:17:51,922 --> 00:17:55,163 This man had heard that the town had been cursed by a witch 290 00:17:55,164 --> 00:17:59,372 And he claimed he had seen a cemetery full of the gravestones of children 291 00:17:59,373 --> 00:18:03,381 But whether that is true or not i could not say 292 00:18:03,382 --> 00:18:07,261 In 1809, a rare book about the occurrences 293 00:18:07,262 --> 00:18:10,409 Surrounding The Blair witch legend was discovered 294 00:18:10,410 --> 00:18:13,326 Entitle the blair witch cult 295 00:18:13,327 --> 00:18:15,873 This tome is supposedly a collection 296 00:18:15,874 --> 00:18:18,947 Of firsthand accounts that illustrate the effects 297 00:18:18,948 --> 00:18:21,049 Of the infamous blair witch 298 00:18:21,050 --> 00:18:24,876 And the book is filled with bloodletting 299 00:18:24,877 --> 00:18:29,544 All kinds of bloody gore witchcraft, paganism 300 00:18:29,545 --> 00:18:33,187 Basically it's a pack of lies don't believe any of it 301 00:18:33,188 --> 00:18:36,673 But the people of the time did believe in it 302 00:18:36,674 --> 00:18:40,358 The awful hag wrenched the boy's head from his writhing body 303 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,435 And defiled the church with his warm blood 304 00:18:43,436 --> 00:18:48,689 It was then that i noticed a dog's teat had sprouted from her leg 305 00:18:48,690 --> 00:18:51,943 She controlled the animals in the forest even the trees 306 00:18:51,944 --> 00:18:54,346 Seeming to do her bidding 307 00:18:54,347 --> 00:18:58,320 When she walked she didn't touch the ground 308 00:18:58,321 --> 00:19:00,847 And her followers made a horrible mulch 309 00:19:00,848 --> 00:19:05,240 Of the countless dead littering the streets 310 00:19:05,241 --> 00:19:09,366 The blair witch cult by anonymous, 1809 311 00:19:09,367 --> 00:19:11,856 It was about the blair witch and it was pretty true 312 00:19:11,857 --> 00:19:15,007 Pretty factual book about what really happened here 313 00:19:15,008 --> 00:19:17,748 But the maryland historical society wanted it back 314 00:19:17,749 --> 00:19:21,285 And they took it over almost over.. my dead body 315 00:19:21,286 --> 00:19:25,144 But i couldn't keep it Cuz it did belong to them 316 00:19:25,145 --> 00:19:28,577 Thirty-eight years later a chance encounter 317 00:19:28,578 --> 00:19:32,250 Resurrected the abandoned township of blair 318 00:19:32,251 --> 00:19:34,552 They were building a railroad through here 319 00:19:34,553 --> 00:19:35,822 And the gentleman building the railroad 320 00:19:35,823 --> 00:19:37,979 Was out ridin' his horse and got lost 321 00:19:37,980 --> 00:19:39,631 Stumbled up on an old road 322 00:19:39,632 --> 00:19:43,572 And it led into what was blair at the time 323 00:19:43,573 --> 00:19:46,613 He had a Friend named burkitt 324 00:19:46,614 --> 00:19:49,330 And Mr. burkitt was a developer 325 00:19:49,331 --> 00:19:52,993 And he talked him into coming here and developin' this area 326 00:19:52,994 --> 00:19:55,143 And he named it burkittsville 327 00:19:55,144 --> 00:19:58,598 The town was actually formed about 1824 328 00:19:58,599 --> 00:20:00,981 And right about a year after that 329 00:20:00,982 --> 00:20:03,222 The crops had come in 330 00:20:03,223 --> 00:20:05,757 Wheat was mostly what the farmers grew there 331 00:20:05,758 --> 00:20:11,591 And the crops were in and they decided to have a picnic down on the local creek 332 00:20:11,592 --> 00:20:15,507 Tappy east creek has been possessed by a demon 333 00:20:15,508 --> 00:20:18,253 Since ilene's horrible death a fortnight passed 334 00:20:18,254 --> 00:20:23,849 The creek has been polluted by a foul oil and an abundance of strange totem 335 00:20:23,850 --> 00:20:27,838 Mary Johnson, 1825. 336 00:20:32,691 --> 00:20:34,933 There was an incident that occurred 337 00:20:34,934 --> 00:20:39,987 Involving a young child bt the name of ilene treakle 338 00:20:39,988 --> 00:20:43,317 This little girl was playing in a very shallow stream of water 339 00:20:43,318 --> 00:20:45,360 And she drowned 340 00:20:50,578 --> 00:20:51,723 That creek was real shallow 341 00:20:51,724 --> 00:20:54,193 It was only probably six to eight inches deep 342 00:20:54,194 --> 00:20:57,023 A child could just wade across or crawl across there 343 00:20:57,024 --> 00:20:58,944 Really it was so shallow 344 00:20:58,945 --> 00:21:00,790 Well supposedly according to the story 345 00:21:00,791 --> 00:21:04,698 There was 12 witnesses who observed 346 00:21:04,699 --> 00:21:07,430 A ghostly white hand 347 00:21:07,431 --> 00:21:10,276 Come up out of the water and drag the child under the water 348 00:21:10,277 --> 00:21:13,533 That's all they could see. nobody ever saw a face or body 349 00:21:13,534 --> 00:21:16,633 All they remember seeing was the arm and the hand 350 00:21:16,634 --> 00:21:18,010 And before they could get to her 351 00:21:18,011 --> 00:21:20,643 She had went and pulled her down 352 00:21:20,644 --> 00:21:22,625 She went under the rocks and the mud 353 00:21:22,626 --> 00:21:25,447 And everything was calm again 354 00:21:25,448 --> 00:21:28,201 But i have a problem with this story 355 00:21:28,202 --> 00:21:33,013 How is it that 11 people happend to be in the right place 356 00:21:33,014 --> 00:21:37,601 At the same time To simultaneously see this chostly hand come up 357 00:21:37,602 --> 00:21:40,271 And drag this child under the water ? 358 00:21:40,272 --> 00:21:41,852 The river is searched 359 00:21:41,853 --> 00:21:44,060 Now unfortunately you're talking about knee-deep water 360 00:21:44,061 --> 00:21:46,102 It's only two or three feet at the maximum 361 00:21:46,103 --> 00:21:49,717 Her body should have easily been found. it's never found 362 00:21:49,718 --> 00:21:52,041 I think that in the case 363 00:21:52,042 --> 00:21:56,278 Of the ilene treakle story 364 00:21:56,279 --> 00:21:59,219 Is that there's another explanation 365 00:21:59,220 --> 00:22:02,987 That perhaps it was something like parental neglect 366 00:22:02,988 --> 00:22:06,351 Someone wasn't watching the child amd the child drowned 367 00:22:06,352 --> 00:22:09,136 For the first time in recorded history 368 00:22:09,137 --> 00:22:11,954 A death is blamed on the blair witch 369 00:22:11,955 --> 00:22:14,575 The news of it spreads as far as baltimore 370 00:22:14,576 --> 00:22:16,878 Sparking this reaction 371 00:22:16,879 --> 00:22:20,168 Dear sir : i find myself force to write this letter 372 00:22:20,169 --> 00:22:24,504 Upon the atrocity i found within your pages this sunday past 373 00:22:24,505 --> 00:22:29,128 I've never seen such callousness shown towards the death of ayoung child 374 00:22:29,129 --> 00:22:33,954 Especially one who taken from this world in such a terrible manner 375 00:22:33,955 --> 00:22:36,832 As to your humorous view of the beliefs of the parents 376 00:22:36,833 --> 00:22:39,020 That she was murdered by a ghost 377 00:22:39,021 --> 00:22:42,545 I remind you that there have been many reports of such terrible specters 378 00:22:42,546 --> 00:22:45,215 Witnessed in the nearby townships 379 00:22:45,216 --> 00:22:49,128 Whether or not these wild tales are true is incidental 380 00:22:49,129 --> 00:22:52,894 The fact remains that a young girl has tragically drowned 381 00:22:52,895 --> 00:22:54,871 And her memory should not be tarnished 382 00:22:54,872 --> 00:22:57,719 By such wild and torrid speculation 383 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,907 Over the manner of her death 384 00:22:59,908 --> 00:23:02,917 Sincerly, Eugene robertson 385 00:23:02,918 --> 00:23:07,021 The river according to what we've been told through written records 386 00:23:07,022 --> 00:23:09,627 Then turns oily and has a bunch of stick figures 387 00:23:09,628 --> 00:23:12,370 Floating into it for the next week 388 00:23:12,371 --> 00:23:15,741 No one can use the river for any kind of water for food or drinking 389 00:23:15,742 --> 00:23:18,412 Or anything like that. it's totally unusable 390 00:23:18,413 --> 00:23:20,690 After that the people wouldn't even go near the creek 391 00:23:20,691 --> 00:23:21,639 They wouldn't fish in it 392 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,292 They didn't swim in it. they didn't do anything in it. 393 00:23:24,293 --> 00:23:26,304 Cuz it just scared them completely to death 394 00:23:26,305 --> 00:23:29,446 And they blamed that on the blair witch 395 00:23:29,447 --> 00:23:35,419 May, 15, 1829 : Delivered twin calves this morning 396 00:23:35,420 --> 00:23:37,933 I'm moving the entire herd to the fallow pasture 397 00:23:37,934 --> 00:23:41,506 Cuz three cattle died from drinking creek water 398 00:23:41,507 --> 00:23:43,849 I'm using the pond instead 399 00:23:43,850 --> 00:23:47,263 Lloyd wellens farming journal 400 00:23:50,571 --> 00:23:53,775 And the town again kind of returned to normal 401 00:23:53,776 --> 00:23:56,601 One more time 402 00:24:04,100 --> 00:24:06,339 They went into the woods prepared to find death 403 00:24:06,340 --> 00:24:08,333 What they found was a desecration of humanity 404 00:24:08,334 --> 00:24:11,835 At the site which trappers have referred to as 'coffin rock' 405 00:24:11,836 --> 00:24:14,035 On top of the rock formation 406 00:24:18,915 --> 00:24:21,716 There was a lady lived there in town when i was a boy 407 00:24:21,717 --> 00:24:23,989 She was 50 years old when i knew her 408 00:24:23,990 --> 00:24:27,026 And she told me when she was a little girl 409 00:24:27,027 --> 00:24:29,578 She had been walking in the woods one day 410 00:24:29,579 --> 00:24:31,634 And this lady appeared to her 411 00:24:31,635 --> 00:24:35,454 And she wasn't walking, she was floating in the air, really 412 00:24:35,455 --> 00:24:39,551 And took her by the hand and led her to an old house back in the woods 413 00:24:39,552 --> 00:24:41,498 And took her down in the basement 414 00:24:41,499 --> 00:24:44,234 And left her there and said she'd ba back 415 00:24:44,235 --> 00:24:45,440 And she left 416 00:24:45,441 --> 00:24:48,463 And the little girl sat there she said, for several hours 417 00:24:48,464 --> 00:24:50,074 And finally she got scared 418 00:24:50,075 --> 00:24:52,792 She was able to crawl through a window 419 00:24:52,793 --> 00:24:54,625 And ran back to town 420 00:24:54,626 --> 00:24:56,453 But in the meantime 421 00:24:56,454 --> 00:24:58,248 The town had started to search for her 422 00:24:58,249 --> 00:25:01,014 They sent out a search party to look for her in the woods 423 00:25:01,015 --> 00:25:04,169 But it's plausible here that this little girl 424 00:25:04,170 --> 00:25:06,876 Was only telling a story 425 00:25:06,877 --> 00:25:10,112 Of the blair witch as she had heard it from, maybe, 426 00:25:10,113 --> 00:25:13,761 Her parents, her siblings or her friends 427 00:25:13,762 --> 00:25:17,551 But what is strange about this case 428 00:25:17,552 --> 00:25:20,408 Was that the first search party that had gone out 429 00:25:20,409 --> 00:25:23,003 To look for the little girl had vanished 430 00:25:23,004 --> 00:25:27,087 When the entire search party failed to return 431 00:25:27,088 --> 00:25:31,477 Another search party was dispatched to find them 432 00:25:31,478 --> 00:25:35,265 What they found was a massacre 433 00:25:35,266 --> 00:25:38,837 And That search party come up on coffin hill or coffin rock 434 00:25:38,838 --> 00:25:40,908 And found those men 435 00:25:40,909 --> 00:25:43,983 The first search party had been killed 436 00:25:43,984 --> 00:25:46,546 Laid out on a flat rock in the woods 437 00:25:46,547 --> 00:25:48,445 They had been disemboweled 438 00:25:48,446 --> 00:25:51,446 And on their faces hands and feet 439 00:25:51,447 --> 00:25:56,183 Were carved these strange pagan symbols 440 00:25:56,184 --> 00:25:59,120 And they were heavily cut in by the ropes 441 00:25:59,121 --> 00:26:01,344 So they were alive when they were tied up 442 00:26:01,345 --> 00:26:04,994 And somebody had disemboweled every one of them 443 00:26:04,995 --> 00:26:07,436 And cut some letters and stuff in their foreheads 444 00:26:07,437 --> 00:26:11,386 Very good.. it wasn't crude you could read what was there 445 00:26:11,387 --> 00:26:14,368 It was all symbolic-type stuff 446 00:26:14,369 --> 00:26:16,591 And it scared them very bad 447 00:26:16,592 --> 00:26:18,873 Like most it would anybody 448 00:26:18,874 --> 00:26:20,942 I couldn't have stood there very long 449 00:26:20,943 --> 00:26:26,380 Their bodies were in a severe state of decomposition 450 00:26:27,188 --> 00:26:30,023 So the search party goes back to get help 451 00:26:30,024 --> 00:26:31,741 And when they return 452 00:26:31,742 --> 00:26:34,785 The bodies have vanished without a trace 453 00:26:34,786 --> 00:26:37,884 But they could still smell death in the air 454 00:26:37,885 --> 00:26:40,598 Which where men die or women die 455 00:26:40,599 --> 00:26:43,715 That you can always smell that 456 00:26:43,716 --> 00:26:46,746 And there was no sign of them there 457 00:26:46,747 --> 00:26:50,514 Now, you notice there has been an interval 458 00:26:50,515 --> 00:26:53,678 Of about 60 years in between these events 459 00:26:53,679 --> 00:26:57,661 And if we move forward to 1940 460 00:26:57,662 --> 00:26:59,607 which is about 60 years 461 00:26:59,608 --> 00:27:03,321 We find another interesting situation 462 00:27:03,322 --> 00:27:06,185 Happens in this very same area 463 00:27:06,186 --> 00:27:10,152 There are an unusually high number of children laid to rest here 464 00:27:10,153 --> 00:27:13,089 Most of whom passed in the 1940s 465 00:27:13,090 --> 00:27:17,881 Yet no one in the town seens to recall anything unusual about this time 466 00:27:17,882 --> 00:27:19,478 To us anyway 467 00:27:19,479 --> 00:27:22,090 Yet legend tells a different story 468 00:27:22,091 --> 00:27:24,817 One whose evidence is all around us 469 00:27:24,818 --> 00:27:26,934 Etched in stone 470 00:27:43,666 --> 00:27:54,033 Subtitle By : Farhad 767 Linkinpark_767_bonjovi@yahoo.com 471 00:28:44,944 --> 00:28:49,738 - As i rememver Mr. parr was an old hermit - Right 472 00:28:49,739 --> 00:28:53,440 And he lived up on the mountain he had a place up there 473 00:28:53,441 --> 00:28:54,990 It'd been there a long, long time 474 00:28:54,991 --> 00:28:59,833 Sort of in the winter, i guess the fall or the winter 1940 475 00:28:59,834 --> 00:29:02,802 Some of the young kids started to disappear 476 00:29:02,803 --> 00:29:07,362 Nobody knew anything about why they were disappearing 477 00:29:07,363 --> 00:29:10,934 Finally one day old Mr. parr come down into the market 478 00:29:10,935 --> 00:29:12,930 And said : i'm finally finished 479 00:29:12,931 --> 00:29:14,188 And what did he mean by that ? 480 00:29:14,189 --> 00:29:16,301 Well i guess nobody knew at first 481 00:29:16,302 --> 00:29:20,419 But the police finally went up on the mountain 482 00:29:20,420 --> 00:29:22,522 And they search his house 483 00:29:22,523 --> 00:29:25,436 and they found the bodies of 7 kids from the area 484 00:29:25,437 --> 00:29:27,556 And those were the seven kids that were missing 485 00:29:27,557 --> 00:29:29,439 And then they brought them out of the woods 486 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,727 one at a time. it just was a terrible thing 487 00:29:32,728 --> 00:29:34,630 It just tore the community up 488 00:29:34,631 --> 00:29:36,467 Each of them had again been disemboweled 489 00:29:36,468 --> 00:29:40,579 There was again reported strange markings of carvings on their hands 490 00:29:40,580 --> 00:29:44,452 On their foreheads ritualistic carvings, if you well 491 00:29:44,453 --> 00:29:48,432 Well, rustin parr admitted to this crime 492 00:29:48,433 --> 00:29:51,172 And in the court he said that 493 00:29:51,173 --> 00:29:54,696 The reason he killed the children is that he was doing 494 00:29:54,697 --> 00:29:59,110 What this old lady ghost had told him to do 495 00:29:59,111 --> 00:30:03,025 Now it's possible that this man 496 00:30:03,026 --> 00:30:05,799 Was trying to fit himself 497 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,008 Into the mythos of the blair witch 498 00:30:10,301 --> 00:30:12,107 But that's conjecture 499 00:30:12,108 --> 00:30:15,279 One child, kyle brody 500 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,945 Would escape from parr's clutches 501 00:30:17,946 --> 00:30:22,597 He was able to give testimony and it was his words 502 00:30:22,598 --> 00:30:26,371 That decided the fate of the burkittsville killer 503 00:30:26,372 --> 00:30:27,372 Order order 504 00:30:27,373 --> 00:30:31,746 And ladies and gentlemen i once again quote kyle brody 505 00:30:31,747 --> 00:30:34,842 He told me to stand in the corner and face the wall 506 00:30:34,843 --> 00:30:38,026 I could hear emily screaming he was cutting her 507 00:30:38,027 --> 00:30:41,808 I looked. he was cutting a symbol on her face 508 00:30:41,809 --> 00:30:44,969 Sometimes he would come up to me do you hear her ? 509 00:30:44,970 --> 00:30:49,067 Do you hear the woman's voice ? i would cry 510 00:30:49,068 --> 00:30:52,539 After a few days, he killed her he cut her open 511 00:30:52,540 --> 00:30:56,019 And after he took everything out of her, he left with her 512 00:30:56,020 --> 00:30:57,885 And i never saw her again 513 00:30:57,886 --> 00:31:00,728 when he came back he told me not to be sad 514 00:31:00,729 --> 00:31:04,840 That he'd bring someone else back soon 515 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:10,693 They burned rustin parr's house to the ground that night 516 00:31:10,694 --> 00:31:13,795 He was hanged four months later 517 00:31:13,796 --> 00:31:17,914 On november 22 , 1941 518 00:31:19,674 --> 00:31:24,409 I had a tape one time of a TV .. of a Newsreel 519 00:31:24,410 --> 00:31:27,237 Showing him where he was murdered 520 00:31:27,238

the voices told me 533 00:32:16,070 --> 00:32:21,452 The writings on the wall in your house what do they mean ? 534 00:32:21,453 --> 00:32:25,798 What were the writings on the wall, Mr. parr 535 00:32:25,799 --> 00:32:30,696 - Did you write those ? did you write on the walls ? - No 536 00:32:30,697 --> 00:32:32,949 Who wrote on the walls Mr. parr 537 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:35,647 You've been sentenced to death do you feel this is fair ? 538 00:32:35,648 --> 00:32:37,247 Yes 539 00:32:37,248 --> 00:32:39,309 Mr. parr do you think god has forgiven you ? 540 00:32:39,310 --> 00:32:40,310 Yes

00:32:50,117 --> 00:32:51,117 No 545 00:32:51,118 --> 00:32:53,160 Mr. parr Mr. parr 546 00:33:15,114 --> 00:33:16,882 - What ? - Nothing i don't know why 547 00:33:16,883 --> 00:33:18,502 You have to have very conversation on video 548 00:33:18,503 --> 00:33:20,400 - Tape some ambience - We're making a documentary 549 00:33:20,401 --> 00:33:21,667 Not about us getting lost 550 00:33:21,668 --> 00:33:24,399 We're making a documentary about a witch 551 00:33:25,094 --> 00:33:26,705 I have a camera 552 00:33:26,706 --> 00:33:33,397 Doesn't hurt cuz we'll look back on this and laugh heartly. believe me 553 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,161 So we're working over there and all of a sudden 554 00:34:01,162 --> 00:34:04,686 I hear kind of a commotion from the other side of the foundation 555 00:34:04,687 --> 00:34:07,821 And i hear, like , rocks banging together 556 00:34:07,822 --> 00:34:10,788 And we kind of ran around the side and apparently what happened 557 00:34:10,789 --> 00:34:13,252 Was that pete was removing a stone 558 00:34:13,253 --> 00:34:15,078 And a section of the wall just caved in 559 00:34:15,079 --> 00:34:16,904 Nobody was hurt this was only 560 00:34:16,905 --> 00:34:21,805 This section of the wall by this was only about four or five feet off the ground 561 00:34:21,806 --> 00:34:24,407 And so i checked and nobody was injured 562 00:34:24,408 --> 00:34:26,862 And i told them clear this out a little bit 563 00:34:26,863 --> 00:34:29,592 And about 20 Minutes later pete comes running up 564 00:34:29,593 --> 00:34:34,784 And he's got this dirty old like a backpack in his hand 565 00:34:34,785 --> 00:34:37,995 By the way they had located those 566 00:34:37,996 --> 00:34:40,132 It appeared the stones had been there 567 00:34:40,133 --> 00:34:45,136 For many many years and had not been disturbed 568 00:34:45,137 --> 00:34:50,389 So it makes you wonser how someone had removed those stones 569 00:34:50,390 --> 00:34:54,049 Forensically in other words stone by stone 570 00:34:54,050 --> 00:34:56,105 Carefully not disturbing them 571 00:34:56,106 --> 00:34:58,963 And then putting them back in the same exact order 572 00:34:58,964 --> 00:35:02,322 That they were originally in the ground 573 00:35:02,323 --> 00:35:06,887 Make you wonder why they were hiding them there 574 00:35:06,888 --> 00:35:08,872 Certaintly not for someone to find them 575 00:35:08,873 --> 00:35:13,204 Cuz they would stay there for years and years more 576 00:35:13,205 --> 00:35:16,871 If they hadn't have done that anthropology dig 577 00:35:16,872 --> 00:35:21,149 What i recognized real quickly were a couple of 16-millimeter film cans 578 00:35:21,150 --> 00:35:25,989 And there was also what looked like some videotape cartridges in there 579 00:35:27,140 --> 00:35:28,358 This had nothing at all to do 580 00:35:28,359 --> 00:35:30,886 With colonial period stuff of course 581 00:35:30,887 --> 00:35:33,870 And so, i called the sheriff 582 00:35:33,871 --> 00:35:36,881 Footage was found allegedly 583 00:35:36,882 --> 00:35:40,166 That was filmed by the three students 584 00:35:40,167 --> 00:35:42,818 I contacted the local color lab 585 00:35:42,819 --> 00:35:46,258 we got it developed and i reviewed the film 586 00:35:46,259 --> 00:35:49,536 And all i found was the students themselves 587 00:35:49,537 --> 00:35:53,445 Some scary noises in the woods at night 588 00:35:53,446 --> 00:35:55,611 And a few examples of that 589 00:35:55,612 --> 00:36:00,979 But no concrete evidence on what happened to the students 590 00:36:04,853 --> 00:36:06,665 Listen 591 00:36:07,647 --> 00:36:09,124 Hello ? 592 00:36:10,185 --> 00:36:11,954 Hello ? 593 00:36:19,004 --> 00:36:21,694 It's all around us 594 00:36:22,689 --> 00:36:25,383 This backpack was found 595 00:36:25,384 --> 00:36:28,090 In sterile soil 596 00:36:28,091 --> 00:36:29,676 Which is like the bottom of the site 597 00:36:29,677 --> 00:36:33,968 It's just you know from there to the middle of the earth is just dirt 598 00:36:33,969 --> 00:36:36,670 The original house at the site had burned down 599 00:36:36,671 --> 00:36:39,436 And so there was a layer of ash that was like sitting 600 00:36:39,437 --> 00:36:41,756 In the interior of the house like the basement 601 00:36:41,757 --> 00:36:45,634 So this knapsack had been in sterile soil 602 00:36:45,635 --> 00:36:48,656 With no evidence around it of disturbance 603 00:36:48,657 --> 00:36:52,166 Over the top of it was an undisturbed layer of ash 604 00:36:52,167 --> 00:36:54,743 And the whole thing was boxed in by 605 00:36:54,744 --> 00:37:00,713 Basically a colonial-era wall that was undisturbed 606 00:37:01,686 --> 00:37:06,441 It was even a forensic expert 607 00:37:06,442 --> 00:37:09,060 Could not have put that thing into the site without disturbing 608 00:37:09,061 --> 00:37:13,498 The charcoal, the wall or the sterile soil 609 00:37:13,499 --> 00:37:15,813 It was as if it materialized 610 00:37:15,814 --> 00:37:17,705 And of course that not the language of science 611 00:37:17,706 --> 00:37:21,551 So i can't i just don't know what to say about this, really 612 00:37:21,552 --> 00:37:25,152 At the time that the footage was found it was scary 613 00:37:25,153 --> 00:37:27,143 It was very very eerie 614 00:37:27,144 --> 00:37:31,627 And it's not something that i'd really want to look at 615 00:37:31,628 --> 00:37:35,792 To tell you the truth i've kind of avoided it 616 00:37:35,793 --> 00:37:39,035 I really don't feel too comfortable 617 00:37:39,036 --> 00:37:43,018 With seeing the last few days of my brother's life on video 618 00:37:43,019 --> 00:37:48,221 I really just don't feel too comfortable with that it's very eerie 619 00:37:48,222 --> 00:37:49,805 Well, when they found 620 00:37:49,806 --> 00:37:53,564 This videotape or film or recordings of whatever it was 621 00:37:53,565 --> 00:37:58,230 Immediately the blair witch business emerged 622 00:37:58,231 --> 00:37:59,720 And people became superstitous 623 00:37:59,721 --> 00:38:03,036 And they said, well mabe this is connected to the blair witch 624 00:38:03,037 --> 00:38:06,195 Well, i though it was kind of fishy myself 625 00:38:06,196 --> 00:38:09,032 I looked at th whole thing as 626 00:38:09,033 --> 00:38:10,936 Possibly a hoax or whatever 627 00:38:10,937 --> 00:38:13,385 But it was still strange 628 00:38:13,386 --> 00:38:17,652 After reviewing the film i still thought it was a hoax 629 00:38:17,653 --> 00:38:21,009 Well, there's always that possibility, but, uh 630 00:38:21,010 --> 00:38:23,606 I think i mentioned earlier 631 00:38:23,607 --> 00:38:26,335 I think it would be remote that it's a hoax 632 00:38:26,336 --> 00:38:29,745 Cuz of the way the tapes were hidden, and 633 00:38:30,954 --> 00:38:32,439 The fact that it 634 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,340 Just to view the tapes they are very realistic 635 00:38:35,341 --> 00:38:39,138 And they do the tape is from a time period the students 636 00:38:39,139 --> 00:38:42,508 Would have been able to have taped it 637 00:38:42,509 --> 00:38:45,283 Oh god god 638 00:38:48,004 --> 00:38:50,597 - Hurry up - I'm coming 639 00:38:50,598 --> 00:38:52,601 My boots aren't laced 640 00:38:52,602 --> 00:38:55,398 Oh my god what the fuck is that ? 641 00:38:55,399 --> 00:38:57,853 what the fuck is that ? 642 00:39:03,552 --> 00:39:05,703 The case of the black hills disappearances 643 00:39:05,704 --> 00:39:07,986 Has once again been closed 644 00:39:07,987 --> 00:39:12,894 The investigation was reopened last october after film reels and videocassettes 645 00:39:12,895 --> 00:39:16,161 Supposedly belonging to the three missing film students 646 00:39:16,162 --> 00:39:19,617 Were found by a maryland university anthropology class 647 00:39:19,618 --> 00:39:22,105 Frederick county police officials declared today that 648 00:39:22,106 --> 00:39:24,279 The found footage was inconclusive 649 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,944 And that all possible leads on the case have been exhausted 650 00:39:27,945 --> 00:39:31,237 Heather donahu , Joshua leonard and Michael williams 651 00:39:31,238 --> 00:39:35,559 Disappeared in 1994 while shooting a documentary film project 652 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,332 In the black hills area near burkittsville 653 00:39:38,333 --> 00:39:42,397 The three student filmmakers are still missing 654 00:39:42,398 --> 00:39:45,644 Burkittsville has only got myself and one deputy 655 00:39:45,645 --> 00:39:47,567 We did the best we could 656 00:39:47,568 --> 00:39:51,319 We called in the county authorities early 657 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,043 And we contacted the FBI later 658 00:39:54,044 --> 00:39:57,238 For more in-depth searching 659 00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,055 And i hate to publicly criticize 660 00:40:00,056 --> 00:40:02,035 Someone in law enforcement 661 00:40:02,036 --> 00:40:04,881 I was in law enforcement for 32 years 662 00:40:04,882 --> 00:40:07,559 I just saw that there were thing, maybe 663 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,918 That could have been done that weren't done 664 00:40:09,919 --> 00:40:11,685 I did a very good job 665 00:40:11,686 --> 00:40:14,551 Well, it seems like that the 666 00:40:14,552 --> 00:40:20,399 This something happens about every 50 or 60 years 667 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:24,353 To make the blair witch theory continue on 668 00:40:24,354 --> 00:40:28,276 And i think that's probably what the cameramen are doin' 669 00:40:28,277 --> 00:40:30,935 They were hopin' to carry it on in some way and maybe they did 670 00:40:30,936 --> 00:40:33,577 They may have disappeared who knows for sure ? 671 00:40:33,578 --> 00:40:36,158 But it's just strange that 672 00:40:36,159 --> 00:40:40,545 It always happens almost in a 50-year pattern 673 00:40:40,546 --> 00:40:43,319 That she somehow surfaces 674 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:47,160 Or something surfaces that lead to her 675 00:40:47,161 --> 00:40:50,671 I think they knew the legend but i don't think they knew the whole history 676 00:40:50,672 --> 00:40:52,636 I don't think they felt 677 00:40:54,537 --> 00:40:55,603 Any fear 678 00:40:55,604 --> 00:40:57,825 But i don't think they felt any kind of respect 679 00:40:57,826 --> 00:41:00,957 I think to them it was just another project 680 00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:02,954 it was a way to get a grade 681 00:41:02,955 --> 00:41:06,250 And, uh, i think they met her 682 00:41:06,251 --> 00:41:08,831 And i think she met them when she was ready to 683 00:41:08,832 --> 00:41:10,860 And i think they're gone 684 00:41:11,439 --> 00:41:14,081 I am so, so sorry 685 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,390 For everything that has happened 686 00:41:19,574 --> 00:41:25,104 Because, in spite of what mike says now, it is my fault 687 00:41:25,105 --> 00:41:27,890 Because it was my project 688 00:41:29,161 --> 00:41:31,677 Everything had to be my way 689 00:41:31,678 --> 00:41:34,633 And this is where we've ended up 690 00:41:34,634 --> 00:41:38,854 And it's all cuz of me that we're here now 691 00:41:38,855 --> 00:41:42,132 Hungry and cold 692 00:41:43,938 --> 00:41:46,195 And hunted 693 00:41:52,595 --> 00:41:54,162 I think it's unexplained 694 00:41:54,163 --> 00:41:57,231 I think it remains unexplained what happened to them 695 00:41:57,232 --> 00:42:02,061 In my law enforcement career i've seen people that have actually decided to 696 00:42:02,062 --> 00:42:03,754 Disappear on their own 697 00:42:03,755 --> 00:42:05,394 and reestablish a new identity 698 00:42:05,395 --> 00:42:08,141 There was no reason in this case to do that 699 00:42:08,142 --> 00:42:11,376 and there's no indication that they did 700 00:42:11,377 -->
