USA Today's post last July 13 featured the director of now-classic film 'Blair Witch.'

Ed Sanchez narrated the night in 1998 when he walked through desolate Maryland woods at about 3 a.m. with his co-director Dan Mayrick in The Blair Witch Project.

That time, Sanchez was a first-time filmmaker and he said he had an epiphany.

"We were carrying flashlights, batteries and food to the actors" of the $60,000 movie, Sanchez recalls. "I told Dan, 'This is either going to be a great movie, or we're going to be the joke of the year.'"

Now, this film became Hollywood's first "found footage" flick. This 2014, particularly last Wednesday, the film turned15 years old and launched a sub-genre in Hollywood horror.

The renowned horror film director Sanchez who is now 44, will get busy directing episodes of the upcoming BBC paranormal series Intruders.

The Blair Witch Project is the story of three missing student filmmakers. A year later, footage from the missing students found in undisturbed soil below the foundation of a 200 year old stone wall by an anthropology class from the same university (thank you Wikipedia for the source).

The film which themed as grainy footage garnered $141 million, as of now, it is still the highest-grossing found-footage film of all-time.

According to USAToday, the directors simply wanted to emulate the true pioneer of found footage which is In Search of..., (hosted by Leanard Nimoy). It was the documentary television show dedicated to mysterious phenomena, from 1977 to 1982.

'Blair Witch Project' was used as the template for an entire found-footage franchise in Paranormal Activity.

Is Blair Witch True?

It is still a legend. And this is how the article end.
