Win a Limited Edition Blu-ray Box of ‘The Blair Witch Project’

A groundbreaking film that reshaped an entire genre and sent ripples through cinemas around the globe, The Blair Witch Project is the iconic horror film that popularised the found footage format. This year it celebrates its 25th anniversary and to mark this milestone, it returns with a meticulously curated Limited Edition Blu-ray Box Set from Second Sight Films, the go-to name for discerning horror collectors.

Available on 11 November 2024, this must-have set features a sleek new rigid slipcase adorned with striking artwork by Timothy Pittides. Inside, you’ll find a 184-page hardcover book packed with rare production materials, insightful new essays, and a special bonus book titled Heather’s Journal.

For those seeking a more straightforward release, a Standard Edition Blu-ray will also be available, with both versions boasting a wealth of exclusive content. This includes a stunning new restoration using Hi-8 videotape and 16mm film elements, personally overseen by directors Eduardo Sánchez (V/H/S/2, Yellowjackets) and Daniel Myrick (Triple 7, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2), along with producers Greg Hale and Michael Monello. Fans can also look forward to a new documentary, commentary tracks, previously unreleased video footage, archival bonus materials, and much more.

In 1994, three student filmmakers—Heather Donahue, Michael Williams, and Joshua Leonard—set out into the dense Black Hills Forest to investigate the eerie legend of the Blair Witch. Armed only with their cameras and an insatiable curiosity, they vanish without a trace, leaving behind only their unsettling footage. One year later, their film is discovered.

What follows is a chilling journey into terror, as the filmmakers’ final days unfold in what would become one of the most influential and unsettling found-footage horror films ever made. Brutal, relentless, and hauntingly real, this groundbreaking film taps into the rawest fears, forever altering the landscape of horror cinema. Experience The Blair Witch Project in a way you’ve never seen before… but remember—the Blair Witch is always watching.
