Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
Eileen Treacle drowned when a ghostly figure pulled her down into Tappy East Creek. Some 175 years later, while on a school camping trip, three people mysteriously die near that same creek. A coincidence? Or does the Blair Witch legend tie these horrible deaths together?

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic book & series! Why are they getting rare?
The 3red installment in Cade Merrill's Blair Witch Files. Suprisingly eerire. A high school girl named Cecilia and her boyfriend Mark,go on a camping trip along with 2 of there friends, two teachers, and 30 something seventh-graders. As time passes Cecilia's boyfriend and her teacher get very mean after falling into a creek. Cecilia begins to worry and afetr a while she finds both teachers gone and Mark acting very irritable. Wanting to get herself and the kids out of the woods she finds the school bus gone. Now Cecilia and her friends find themselfs in a race against time to get out of teh woods alive. Things get more horrifying each day- finds teachers finger nails and other teachers body. No one belives her. Mark finally tells the group the will walk out of the woods. But is he really leading them to civilization or deeper in the woods were an unknow evil lurks. Great ending. WHY ARE THE BLAIR WITCH FILES GETTING HARDER TO FIND. I WILL BE VERY SAD IF THEY GO OUT OF PRINT. Ther are not corny as some people say. Belive me I've read 4 books in this series and they were all grat. I suggest reading this trilling series- that I hope won't stop for a long time!



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Drowning Ghost fact of fiction
Cade Merrile is a seventeen year old owner of a webpage called blairwithfiles.com. His cousin Heather died in the making of a student documentary on the blair witch. Cade puts a message up on his site asking for information on one of the many cases of the Blair witch. In 1825 there was a mysterious drowning of a young girl. Eileen Treacle was only ten years old when she drowned in 'East Tappy Creek" and several witnesses testified that they saw a 'bony white hand' reach out of the water to pull the girl in. He looks through tons of e-mails until he comes across one written by Cecelia Northrupp, a girl who claims to have seen the ghost of Eileen Treacle. Without hesistating, Cade decides to check her story out and uncovers the story of three more mysterious deaths near the same creek.

The story is told by Cecelia Northrup herself and involves a high school camping trip that takes place 174 years after the strange death of Eileen Treacle. Immediately, (as in most of the other stories) things start to go wrong: some of the kids become sick,the weather is really cold, and ghost of a little girl appears to one of the seventh graders. So she is convinced that something is wrong and the behaviour of one of the teachers and her boyfriend Mark is soon putting everyone's life in danger. What is causing these strange events to occur and how are they linked to the Blair Witch herself? The other books in this series are good but not as messed up as this one. It really can freak you out.

This book was very intense and creepy. I like the way nothing is ever proved in these books and anyone who likes to get a little creeped out now and then should read it. If you aren't into this kind of thing, then you shouldn't read the book.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Another great Blair Witch Files book...
When Cade Merrill, seventeen year old owner of the website, theblairwitchfiles.com comes across a newspaper article dating from 1825 about the mysterious drowning of a young girl, he decides to investigate. Eileen Treacle was only ten years old when she drowned in `East Tappy Creek" and several witnesses testified that they saw a `bony white hand' reach out of the water to pull the girl in.

When Cade posts a message on his website asking for information on the legend, he doesn't expect success. After wading through dozens of replies, he comes across an e-mail from Cecelia Northrupp, a girl who claims to have seen the ghost of Eileen Treacle. Without hesistation, Cade decides to check her story out and uncovers the story of three more mysterious deaths near the same creek.

The story is narrated by Cecelia Northrup herself and involves a high school camping trip that takes place 174 years after the strange death of Eileen Treacle. Immediately, things start to go wrong: the weather is freezing, some of the kids become ill, and ghost of a little girl appears to one of the seventh graders. Cecelia is convinced that something is wrong and the behaviour of one of the teachers and her boyfriend Mark is soon putting everyone's life in danger. But what is causing these strange events to occur and how are they linked to the creek itself?

This book was fast-paced, entertaining and fairly creepy. I think it was less `psychological' than the previous book in this series, "The Dark Room", but equally enjoyable. I have to say I like the way that nothing is ever proved in these books and that the reader is left to make up their own mind about the unexplained events that take place. Overall, five stars and I recommend it to any teen who likes horror stories.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - An very good book
I recomend it if you are interested in reading more tales and myths about the Blair Witch. It is very, very good. It explains things that you don't get by watching the movies. I probably recomend buying the other books too if you want to have a clear understanding view of what's happening with the Blair Witch legend.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Provides yet another twist to the Blair Witch saga
2 teachers, 4 high-school seniors, and 30 7th-graders go camping near the creek where Eileen...was supposedly pulled under by the arm of what people believe is the Blair Witch. Bad things start to happen when two people fall into the creek, and come out with totally different personalities. Then all the children walk out of the cabin at different times, each found without a clue as to why they are doing--except that they want to play. This story implies that there might be more than one evil force. Ultimately, this is simply Saturday the 13TH: Part 6 with a better plot.
