The Blair Witch Project (1999) - Trading Card #8

Front: The basement of Rustin Parr's secluded house, where the bodies of seven missing children were discovered. Each child had been ritualistically murdered and disemboweled. Parr admitted to the killings but told authorities that he was obeying a voice in his head - the voice of an old woman - who commanded his actions. Rustin Parr's house burned down in 1942, although it inexplicably resurfaced in 1994 footage shot by missing students Heather Donahue and Michael Williams.
Slain and BuriedI did not realize that the house Heather and Michael stumbled across was supposed to be Rustin Parr's house when I first saw the movie, as I was not all that focused on the backstory mythology of The Blair Witch Project at the time.
Griggs House, the actual house the cast and crew filmed in, was demolished a few years after the release of the movie. Despite efforts to preserve it, so that fans and likeminded weirdos (like me) could visit the location and have their picture taken while standing at the precise location Michael was at the end of the movie. So it goes.
