The Blair Witch Project is a 1999 found-footage horror film directed by Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez. It follows three student filmmakers—Heather, Mike, and Josh—who venture into the woods of Burkittsville, Maryland, to document the local legend of the Blair Witch. As they film their journey, they encounter strange occurrences and increasingly unsettling events, leading to their disorientation and terror.

The film is notable for its realistic style, utilizing improvisation and minimal special effects, which contributed to its sense of authenticity. It became a cultural phenomenon, popularizing the found-footage genre and grossing nearly $250 million worldwide on a budget of around $60,000. Its innovative marketing campaign, which included a viral website, helped create a lasting impact on horror cinema.
