The BLAIR WITCH PROJECT film locations

Here is a video of when KandJHorror.com recently went up to Maryland to visit some film locations featured in The Blair Witch Project (1999). Burkittsville is home to only a handfull of residents but, has to be one of the most peaceful and charming towns on Earth. When you stroll thru downtown it's like going back in time over 100 years! Truly an amazing place. The opening "cemetery" scene is the only scene shot in Burkittsville itself.
Another location I hunted out and found was Coffin Rock. It is located off of Black Rock rd. in Maryland (of course). If you park at the old mill and then walk across the street to the guard rail, you'll see a small path off in the woods. Take that path for a few hundred feet or so and you will run into "Coffin Rock." The stream will run on your left side if you're headed the correct direction (east). Have fun with that.
The Parr house, found deep in the woods at the end of the film by Michael and Heather has been demolished and removed completely. I just went back there myself to verify this. I thought there might be some remnant or "ruins." I had my videocamera with me but there was nothing to shoot. Nothing there to show. The spot the house once stood is now grown over with natural area and small trees. It was located a few hundred feet behind an old armory off of Hernwood Rd. in Maryland. Trust me, it is not there anymore, at all. I am to understand it was removed by the State of Maryland in 2003, for obvious reasons. If only I had been there sooner!
Thanks for watching. Peace. Later, J.

Even though you posted this awhile ago, I appreciate you revisiting the locations and sharing it all here. So thank you :0)

Plus, it's always nice to see another Blair Witch Project fan/supporter. It feels like we're in the minority when it comes down to defending this great little flick...at least on a majority of the horror forums I visit.

Take care and I hope to make the journey someday and see some of the sites in person too. :0)

@ErlendYo91 Haha, oh believe me I am WELL aware the events within the film aren't real. ;) I've even had the pleasure of meeting Heather Donahue twice. When I use the term "defend" I mean just that, as there certainly are many haters out there on forums & such. Even Heather Donahue was awarded a razzie, which I feel was rotten because I found her acting convincing, much like the fear given from Marilyn Burns in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Both gave effective performances.
