I was just young and naïve enough when The Blair Witch Project came out to be suckered in by the premise that it was real – that someone had found this real-life footage after the fact, or that it was just a movie but one based on real events. Even now when you Google it, the first ‘people also ask’ result is: was Blair Witch based on a true story?
After 20 years of horror movies aping that gimmick, the Google doc that accompanies mod doesn’t really have a chance of tricking anyone into thinking it’s a true story about a modder trying to finish their dead friend’s project and slowly descending into madness. But it doesn’t have to.
