take this with a grain of salt since it was before I was born, but the marketing was apparently very good, including fake missing posters for the actors. A lot of modern analog horror/creepypasta/SCP stuff is so over the top that no one should believe it (especially the Russian Sleep Experiment!) but I'm a lot more understanding of those who were fooled by The Blair Witch Project
