The Trial of Elly Kedward is an online series exploring the life of Eilís Abaigeal Kedward, more commonly known as Elly Kedward, and her life and heritage in Ireland previous to her emigration to America. We all know the history and mythology into the Blair Witch, the words are well known... “In 1785, several children in the township of Blair, Maryland, accused Elly Kedward of witchcraft. She was found guilty, and banished in the middle of winter. It was assumed she died from exposure. The following year, all of her accusers and half the town's children had vanished. Fearing a curse, the entire township fled as soon as the weather broke and vowed never to the utter the name Elly Kedward again.”But who was this woman infamously labeled the Blair Witch? Who was this woman in her native heritage, in her native land? What aspects of her life would lure her to eventually emigrate to America? ...a woman who breathed the same air as we do, one who possessed feelings and emotions as we all do, who cried as we all do, who laughed as we all do, and who bled as we all do. The Trial of Elly Kedward is a story, amazingly enough, her own story, told in her own words. This, as a result of a recently discovered hand-written journal "Found Amongst the Papers of the Late William Barnes" which in itself is a fascinating story as to how this all came into being. It is strongly encouraged to read that page before jumping into the series itself to get the full experience. Each season is made of chapters, with each chapter giving detailed insight into the entries of the Kedward diary. For as much as know the legend of the Blair Witch and all that has occurred in the Black Hills for over 200 years, behind that lived a grown woman, a young lady, a young girl, and infant at one time. For all that we may have been speculated, theorized, entertained and more over the years, even centuries, as to the advent of the "Blair Witch," now we are able to learn directly from the source; the hand-written journal of Eilís Abaigeal Kedward, aka Elly Kedward. www.ellykedward.com

Hoovered if you will. There were dust bunnies, and there were rotting corpses. They had to be removed because the stench was unbearable. ed note: this response and initial post will make no sense to others joining this forum. The joke of "somebody vacuumed" is in response to that it was decided to remove an old Elly Kedward thread and start anew with this one.

As explained in this thread's introduction, it is an online series made of seasons and chapters within each season. The website is more than just the episodes, each season also contains Companion Guides to further understand each episode. There is also a Facebook page for the film at www.facebook.com/ellykedward where you will find additional content to explore (of which also will be reflected on the direct website soon. This also includes The Kedward Heritage Biographies as well as a detailed Preface. There will also be a new feature added called "Did You Know?" which is a series of "factoids" that would otherwise be unknown and/or goes into further detail on some of the aspects of Elly's life.

NEW FEATURE COMING: "REVELATIONS" "Revelations" will be an ongoing feature that is updated on a regular basis. The first installment in this new feature, entitled "Opus," is quite fascinating. Throughout all of the seasons and chapters of The Trial of Elly Kedward, we have been able to present her diary as best as possible through translation from Gaelic to English sub-titles, to visual and aural representation of Elly's own hand-written words. But imagine taking that a step further. Imagine being able to not only witness her actual thoughts and emotions, but to be able to experience them on a much wider and profound scale and level. ...to truly, and literally, get into her head.
This is an absolutely momentous aspect of Elly Kedward that will downright astonish you. It has taken 3 solid years to develop this new feature, and we are now finally able to reveal it.
What it is will be revealed in the first installment of "Revelations."

UPDATE: We have decided to postpone the "Revelations" feature. Because there are several special features coming, it's been decided to release them at a future date. This, in order to maintain the current flow and timeline of the series itself.

'Posted a poll on the Facebook page last night. Though all the posts on that page get an acceptable number of views, I question why the lack of engagement. Do not mistake me, I don't post in want of passive "likes" etc. If there are likes, or comments made, all the better of course.
But in this case it's a poll question asking "Do you have a favorite chapter?" which has reached 87 people, yet no one has responded.
Have no idea why.

More-so it just makes it rather frustrating to take the fans' temperature as to what flips their switch. It's important to get insight to their interests of the story. The story continues whether or not there are eyes or ears for it. It's not a project I want to "show off," it's far more personal than that as a project of long-established desire and somewhat "need" to. Like finishing a painting or musical composition begun years ago, and you want to do it... because you can. And because you need to, to get it out of your system.

But damn it'd be nice to have someone at the other end going "I hear you."

That's an option that can be enabled. I didn't think anyone would want it. I activated it this morning. You can "like" posts now. Done. Thanks Tweakie.

Muuuch happening over at both the main site ( www.ellykedward.com) and on the Facebook page ( www.facebook.com/ellykedward) (Anarchist, you don't need an FB account to see FB pages. You do to interact though). We've been revisiting all the chapters up to and including Season Three. This, because members of both White Enamel and The Bloody Benders Facebook pages were invited to join and "like" the Elly Kedward page, and this afforded them to be able to catch up before I fire up Season Four (we are relaunching it due to the ***unnamed pb member*** fiasco which pretty much fucked up the initial launch). There will be all new material included with Season Three now being introduced, including 2 special features directly related to this particular season. More on this, and more on more, coming next....
