Cade
I was looking at the case file for The Darkroom.  When I looked at DR003 the bottom picture the dark spot on the ground looks really wierd.  Also it kind of looks likes there are two people in the backround.  It's probaly nothing but I just thought that I'd say something about it just in case.

September 30, 2000

I think if you keep tring you will find Heather,Josh,and Mike some day soon Keep searching. Hey is there is one place in Mr.Perr house I think it is Mike's back pack he had with him when Heatherand him dis appeared in the basement. Thank You for listening

Hi Cade I'm 12 years old and love to read about the supernatural. I already read The Witch's  Daughter and The Dark Room. They were very intresting. I really do not belive in ghost and in monsters but I do belive in The Blair witch I am looking foward to read the next books in The Blair Witch Files I would like to know what happen to the boys after Laura disappeared?

September 30, 2000

Hey there Cade!
I totally believe in the Blair Witch and super natural things. I hope you get to the bottom of this. Good luck and please keep the website up to date. Thanx!

September 29, 2000

   Dear Sir--
     My name is Lauri.  I also saw "The Blair Witch Project" and I have this really strong feeling; your cousin Heather and her friends ARE still alive. So; do NOT give up your search, ever.  Good luck and God bless Mr. Merill.

Cade,
 I can understand how u felt when heather disappeared. i too have a favorite cousin and she hasnt disappeared but i can understand how you are feeling cause i would feel the same if she disappeared. i was at a wal mart one day in the books section an i saw a copy of the dark room and i read your little note on the inside and i begged my mom to get me the dark room and the witch's daughter since i was broke at the time. antway i will help you out as much as possible since i sorta became obsessed with the mystery of the blair witch after watching the movie then reading the intro or whatever you wanna call it at the beginning of the book

I believe Harper Kemp had a romance with  Lee Pappert and her "HEART" was broken by him.  Which is why a postcard was sent to him while in the hospital stating, in so many words "I hope you get what your HEART deserves".  Her orbituary was posted next to his to show that her "HEART" died when he did  So much untold incidence occurred in orphanages during those days that who knows, maybe Lee was raped while living at Oakbridge and Kempner was somehow involved.  How about researching the people who lived in the orphanage during that time period to find out what it was like then.  I also believe Lee is very much alive somewhere......

You know, someone (a supposed "witch) put a spell on my grandmother when she was young in which she would be in frail health for the rest of her life; all because this one lady (again, the supposed witch) was in love with my grandma's husband.  To this day grandma suffers from  Heart disorder (has had two open heart surgeries), circulation, diabetes and allergies.  This curse was performed by a witch in the Dominican Republic. 

My family and I are born again Christians and we do know there is evil as well as good in this world but as a poem goes "I am a Christian, I still feel the sting of pain, I have my share of heartaches which is why I speak His name.

God Bless.

Cade, I just wanted to thank you, I have been a blair witch fanatic since I first saw the previews to the movie.  Then, after awhile, i had hearn little to nothing about it.  Then, i was introduced to your books.  I just have to say that they have renewed my interest in The Blair Witch 100%.  I would love to come to Burkittsville, just to visit, maybe take a walk in the black hills forest.  This whole mystery just grabs my attention like nothing else has.  Keep up the good work, i'm looking forward to all of the book that are coming out in the future.  Oh, I was wondering, could we see pictures of you, and people you have interacted with that you speak about in your books?  It would be real nice to put faces with the names....even though it's nice to just imagine how the person looks....Thanks alot Cade, you're doing an excellent job!!

September 28, 2000

My theory after seeing the movie is that Josh killed Heather and Mike.  He was being controlled by the Blair Witch just like Rustin Parr. 

September 28, 2000

Cade- I feel sorry for what has happened and think what your doing is great, some day I hope you can complete the missing data for your project. At first I thought the movie 'The blair witch project' was crap (no offence), thinking it was not true. But now, After reading your home page, I've begun to believe it's true.

September 27, 2000

I have a set of runes that have been passed down for generations in my family and a very old book for interpreting them and many of the definitions in my book greatly differ from the ones on your site perhaps a different translation would further your quest

September 26, 2000

Cade- I have read only one of your books but I've been all over the web site and its all so interesting. I've always loved things that people think impossible, always believed in it.

September 15, 2000

Hey Cade,
I live close to Maryland maybe even the woods,i'm not sure but one night i had an encounter with somebody or somthing.It really scared me and i wanted to tell someone,but..i was to scared.Well a week ago i had a nother encounter i'm not sure what happened but i was like.... WOW get me out of here.i just wanted to know if u could help me or something.

Rule of thumb: If there’s something weird going on in the woods…don’t go in alone! Especially at night.

September 14, 2000

someone asked if the Blair Witch had ever been suspect in cases outside of Burkittsville,well I don't know if this counts,but about thirty years ago or so,before I retired I worked for the state at an institution I won't name in Atlanta Georgia. We had us a fellow come in there from right around that area by the name of Kyle Brody. He didn't stay long. We were at that time a minimum security institute,and Kyle caught on to this right away..despite what you might hear,Kyle was very smart...and eerily attentive to his surroundings.Anyway,the reason he didn't stay long is because he really hurt one of the other orderlies,I can't use his name,but kyle right near ripped a huge chunk of his right thigh and scrotum clear off. It was horrifying. I was glad he did'nt stay long,but the institution was not the same place after he left...and I don'y just mean the fact that we were upgraded to a high security institution like milledgeville. So I don't know if that counts as the Blair Witch,but this guy definately had some evil in him. I was so glad he left...but I avoided his room and that side of the institution to the day I retired in 89. Just thought you might find that an answer to your question,or maybe it gave you more questions...

September 14, 2000

Just one question that doesn't neccessarily have to be answered.  Cade, have you talked with Buck Buchanan about his finding's on this whole Blair Witch saga?  I mean that little incident with Diane Ahlquist, Carlos Sonenberg, Buck and Stephen Whately in the Black Hills on April 30th 1996 proved to be an interesting night if you know what I mean.  And then there's the issue with what Heather found in those bundle of sticks in all that footage after Josh vanished the night before.  Was it just blood and goo, or what it something from each of Josh's senses (eye, finger, ear, tongue, nose) that just seemed to foggy to see?  And if it was, do you think that it might have something to do with the Gebo sacrifice?  Something more doesn't make sense, and I hope those books come out soon with more information.  Im begining to wonder myself what the hell is in those Black Hills.  But not just there...everywhere.

September 14, 2000

this doesn't have much to do with the blair witch, but i live in a small jacked-up town that has alot of freaky things happen in it. there's some people here with the last anme blair. they're all crazy and they've all died on these railroad tracks near my house. only one of them hasn't, he was electricuted. anyways, they all seem to be connected to some weird things, but the weirdest around here has to do with alien junk. cattle being operated on, lights in the skies, you know the drill. i know i'm more than underaged to be into this stuff, but i am into all of it. loch ness, witchcraft, aliens, you name it. i want to compliment you on this as well. wonderful idea. i should make something about the alien crap in this jacked-up town... you probably don't care about it much. but i had to get this junk off my mind before i really do hear the voices.

September 12, 2000

Cade, Don't give up. No matter what some of these people tell you. Follow your instinct and your gut. I believe in many things. Even things further and past the blair witch. And unlike most people I was SCARED in the first movie and I plan to see this second one. I have odd, unusual things happen to me as well. Weather people wanna believe me or not is their problem. I've had ghost problems once to where I'm alone and scared. Don't let it happen to you. Be brave on whatever happens to you and face things without guilt or any type of fear. I hope you will be able to pick up where your sister left off.

~Fellow Believer

Heather was my cousin, actually. Not my sister. I’d like to take this moment to thank all of you who have written in to support my search for the truth. It really means a lot to me when I’m tired and feel like I’m getting nowhere. Thanks, guys.

September 10, 2000

Im not sure if you want to hear this,because it's true and I know alot of this is ficticious. I have always lived here in the south where I was born,but my father and his family are all from Maryland. I have only been there twice. Once for a family reunion in 85,and the second time was when my uncle died,in the summer of 89. My father got all of my uncles personal things because he lived alone and had no close family. One of the things my father got was an old photo album. Now I never would have given it a second thought,but after I saw the movie,I felt inclined to go back through it. Something in the movie seemed eerily familiar to me. As my friend an I thumbed through the photo album,we found an old picture,colored,but faded. It was a picture of my uncle and about a dozen other people . On the back there was a date 11/68 and the words Blair Family. Since I didn't recognize any of the other people in the photo,I took it to my dad and asked him what it might mean. He seemed very uncomfortable. I don't know if it was because he was still dealing with the loss of his brother, or something else. All he would disclose to me was that his brother did some crazy things and had alot of weird friends that he never introduced to him. Something else that struck me as weird was that the photo seemed to be taken at night and in the woods. I looked through the rest of his album, and there were a few pictures of my uncle with some of the people in the aforementioned photo,all were taken at night and all seem to be taken in the woods. Im not sure if this has any connection to The Blair Witch, but every time I look at the pictures,I get this feeling I can't describe...it's part fear,like Im doing something Im not supposed to,and part exhiliration,like Im' on the verge of finding something my father doesn't want me to know. Have you ever heard of The Blair Family ? Some of my friends speculate that these pictures might be actual photos of a cult that may have met in the Black Hills forrest. I have tried a few times to re-raise the subject with my father,but he gets irrationally irritated and now he won't even let me look through my uncle's stuff . His behavior reminds me of when I was little,about 5,and I fell asleep in a dog house. When I woke up my parents were both freaked out and had police searching for me. It was like my father was mad at me,but there was an urgency to his anger,like he was only angry because he thought my life was in jeopardy That is how he gets every time I try to bring this up,like he's angry,but only because he fears for my safety. I'm not sure about any of it though,that's why I was hoping you might shed some light on what the Blair Family is or was. Is it worth more investigation ?

I am currently investigating claims that a "Blair Family" (like the infamous Manson Family) cult actually exists. I hope to be able to update you all on my progress soon.

September 10, 2000

Dear Chad,
          I READ THE FIRST BOOK, I AM NOW ON THE 2 BOOK, I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE BOOKS UNTIL I WENT TO WAL-MART AND I HAD TO GET A BOOK FOR SCHOOL BECAUSE OUR TEACHER'S MAKE US READ FOR 10 MIN I NEVER LEAVE ANYTHING OUT N-E-WAY WHEN I GOT THE BOOK I STARTED READING IT THAT MORNING AT SCHOOL I REALLY GOT INTERESTED IN IT SO I READ THE BOOK INSTED OF DOING MY HOMEWORK I GOT IN TROUBLE BUT IT WAS WORTH IT N-E-WAY I GOT FINISHED WITH IT LAST WEEK AND THAT IS WHY I NOW HAVE IT.

September 10, 2000

September 10, 2000

I believe that the Blair Witch thing is true but Heather Donahue is alive and well.

September 9, 2000

Cade,
Hey. I was doing a aol search for Rustin Parr. I came across this website,http://www.burkittsville.org/faq.html, it says that heather, josh, and michael were actors and are still alive and probobally signing autographs right now but that can't be true cause michael was my cousin and he is dead and so is your cousin heather. i think you should visit the website. i think it is totally bogus. i think it is a bunch of garbage. What do you think?
;)

September 9, 2000

I really like your site!  It's kewl

September 9, 2000

Hey Cade, it's Arkao, I just thought I might share a little revelation I've had with these Futhark symbols.  Now I know that joining symbols may not seem right but is it possible that the Blair Witch symbol is a joining of three symbols? I know you must have thought of this already but I just thought I might say this. 

If you take Gebo (the sign for Sacrifice), Invert Tiwaz (The sign for Warrior), and cross Tiwaz with Isa ( the sign for Death) you know what you get?  The Blair Witch symbol.  It almost seems like a combination of a Death, Sacrifice (or gift), and warrior make.  Im thinking on what it could mean, but who knows, maybe Im heading nowhere with this...what do you think?

I think you may be on to something here. The symbols seen in my cousin’s footage definitely seem to have some kind of mystical power. Maybe it is the joining of three symbols (there are many mystical groups of three throughout religious and historical legend) that gives the "Stickman" its power. I’ll look into this and let you know if I uncover anything.

September 7, 2000

Dear Cade i think u are insane.  The movies are good the books are good but i cant get over one thing though.  If they are true why do u find them in the fiction section which is for false.  Im not the smartest person in the world so i cant say that this is true or not but all i can say is that this whole blair witch thing is confusing and makes no sense.  I have seen heather in a steaknshake commercial.  and on mtv awards as well as the others.  At first i thought all this was real, but the more i hear about this legend , the more im convienced that this is just another scheme to get people to stay interested in a dying movie that has scared its viewers then dissapeared like the rest of them.  The blair witch website told us all how the movie was done and said it was a fiction movie and nothing happened to the teens.  I feel that there is supernatural things out there and have came into contact myself.  I believe the legand may be true but the story on the teens i believe to be a hoax.  To end this i would like to tell u though that me and my mom have enjoyed all the movies and books u have made.

September 5, 2000

Hey, I like the books!  Is ALL of that stuff ACTUALLY true?  I belive it but I was just wondering.  I cant help you about the Blair Witch thing sorry.  But I have been to  Burkittsville twice with my friend any her mom.  I went in to the Black Hills & I swear I heard stuff, like voices, closeby & no one was there!  I wonder if it actually was the Blair Witch, what do you think?

September 2, 2000

Hey Cade I just bought your book yesterday (The witchs Daughter) Im already on chapter10 i cant seem to put it down and i never read book i decided to check out your site it is real cool i give a lot of hope for u to find the answers u are looking for u seem to love ur cousin alot and where ever she is im sure see is watching u ive seen the movie some walk out but i alwayz wondered if it was real cause on tv they had the 3 people in the movie winning a award so i dont know what to believe if  have time cade write me back

September 2, 2000

Hey Cade, I just wanted you to know that I made a Yahoo club based on you and your books and research, Im calling it the Blair Witch Files (Hope that's okay.) I figure I can scour through those in Yahoo to see who knows what and their input if anything on the Whole Blair Witch saga.  If you want to check it out it's   clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/theblairwitchfiles

Hey, I saw your club while I was at my publisher’s the other day. Hope you got her message. Very cool. And thanks, I’m flattered.

I like to help, Im kinda based on the other side of the US in California, but hey, all things considered, everybody has something to say.  Like you I think there is more then anyone can possibly know about this whole phenomenon.  Ill be in touch in this place.  Until then, may the truth find one of us.
