Filmmaker Paul Dadrian is putting together a documentary about the Hoia-Baciu Forest, which is one of the creepiest places of Transylvania. Considering the eerie history surrounding the area, it’s not surprising that someone wants to unravel this very intriguing mystery. In fact, you can help bring this project to fruition by throwing some cash at the flick’s Indiegogo campaign.

To help breathe life into Hoia-Baciu Forest: Beyond the Legend, Dadrian enlisted the help of John Altyn. For those who don’t know, Altyn produced Silent Night, Bloody Night 2: Revival and contributed music to Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers and Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland.

Here’s the story Dadrian wants to share with the world.

Hoia-Baciu Forest, one of the most mysterious places in the world, lays a few kilometers away from the city of Cluj-Napoca, also known as the “heart of Transylvania.” Locals nearby are familiar with the strange powers detained by the forest. The phenomena manifested there, beyond their power of understanding, prompted them not to ask reckless questions. Because of fear, the forest remained, for a long period of time, shrouded in the unknown. Until the ‘60s, when biologist Alexandru Sift began an intense study of the phenomena manifested there in an attempt to solve the mystery. In 1968, newspapers around the world published wonderful photos of a UFO that had just flown over the area. The photos were studied in research institutes from Europe and the US, all cataloging the picture as authentic. Since then, Hoia-Baciu Forest has become a living legend.

Hoia-Baciu Forest: Beyond the Legend is still in the early stage of development, but that hasn’t stopped the director from putting together a poster. You can check out the Blair Witch Project-inspired artwork below. And remember to toss some cash at the flick’s crowdfunding campaign.
