Like the original film, the marketing for Adam Wingard’s The Woods has been incredibly compelling, and if you’ve been paying attention, you’ve probably stumbled upon at least a couple bits and pieces of the ARG that’s currently being spread across the net. If not, well, one eagle-eyed fan has done all the legwork!
Over on Reddit, user damienjohn is keeping a close watch on all things Blair Witch…

She also has a Kickstarter for the film which she was shooting with James Donahue, regarding the loss of his sister Heather. She went with him into the woods to document his lack of closure.

Synopsis:
A group of college students venture into the Black Hills Forest in Maryland to uncover the mysteries surrounding the disappearance of James’ sister, who many believe is connected to the legend of the Blair Witch. At first the group is hopeful, especially when a pair of locals offer to act as guides through the dark and winding woods, but as the endless night wears on, the group is visited by a menacing presence. Slowly, they begin to realize the legend is all too real and more sinister than they could have imagined.
