Project 23 - Blazing Biographies - Making of Blair Beckton


 

 

 

Project 23- Blazing Biographies - Blair Beckton Blog



During the week there have been more and more sightings of mysterious stick figures within the Beckton area of East London.


The sudden appearance of these figures are unknown. Some of the local residents are regarding them as installation art while others are unnerved by their presence.



So far seven figures have been sighted and documented, hanging from trees, walkways, bridges etc...

                   

Some locals are referencing the figures to those of the Blair Witch from the 1999 Box Office hit The Blair Witch Project, are these the works of practical joke, film appreciation or has Beckton in fact become the new haunting ground for the Blair Witch?...
