After the massive success of ''[[The Blair Witch Project]]'', [[Artisan Entertainment|Artisan]] was eager to produce a sequel while the film's popularity was still at its peak. However, [[Haxan Films]], who created the original film, was not ready to begin work on a follow-up, preferring to wait until the initial buzz had died down.<ref>Morris, Clint. [http://www.webwombat.com.au/entertainment/movies/blair_int.htm 'Interview with Daniel Myrick and Ed Sanchez'] Web Wombat. 2008.</ref> Artisan decided to proceed without them, hiring [[Joe Berlinger]], who had previously (and subsequently) only done true documentaries, to direct. ''Blair Witch'' directors [[Daniel Myrick]] and [[Eduardo Sánchez]] served as executive producers on the film, but later stated that they had little influence on production and were unsatisfied with the finished film.

Stylistically, ''Book of Shadows'' was the direct opposite of its predecessor: though the film occasionally utilizes the [[point of view shot|point of view]] camcorder/pseudo-documentary format used in the first movie, ''Book of Shadows'' more closely resembles the glossy, big-budget special effects-laden horror films that ''Blair Witch'' was a counter to. Berlinger has stated that he originally made the film with more of an ambiguous tone, but Artisan recut the film and re-shot certain scenes to add more "traditional" horror movie elements, thus creating what they saw as a more "commercial" film. Berlinger repeatedly expresses his dislike of the studio's changes throughout the film's DVD commentary.

Though ''Book of Shadows''' marketing campaign made no attempt to present the film as a "true story", a promotional "[[dossier]]" for the film, compiled by [[D.A. Stern]], was released, including fabricated police reports and interviews surrounding the events in the film as if they were fact (a similar "dossier", also by Stern, was released as a companion piece to the first film). Additionally, similar to the first movie, each of the main characters retain the first names of their respective actors, though their surnames are changed slightly.

[[Roger Ebert]], who gave the [[The Blair Witch Project|first film]] four stars (out of four), gave ''Book of Shadows'' two stars, calling it "a muddled, sometimes-atmospheric effort that could have come from many filmmakers" and "not a very lucid piece of filmmaking." <ref>[http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20001027/REVIEWS/10270302/1023 Review by Roger Ebert], Chicago Sun-Times</ref> Shawn Levy of the [[Portland Oregonian]] gave a mildly positive review, saying: "There are moments of pleasure, humor, and [...] terror to be had here."<ref>Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 review, Shawn Levy, Portland Oregonian, 2000</ref> Luke Y.

Much like the first ''Blair Witch'', ''Book of Shadows'' also featured a marketing [[gimmick]], although this one centered around the film's video release, fully exploiting video technology. The DVD and VHS releases came with a featurette detailing "The Secret of Esrever", a number of near-[[subliminal message]]s in the form of hidden words and images that were placed throughout the film. The featurette encouraged viewers to watch certain scenes in reverse and/or frame-by-frame in order to decode the "secret", and, through scrambled letters flashed throughout the program, offered five clues to where they could be found: "door", "water", "mirror", "rug" and "grave".
+
-
An example of these messages can be seen in a scene early in the film where the main characters are in a graveyard, standing behind a tombstone inscribed with the word "Treacle". The shot briefly cuts away and then cuts back, though the same tombstone now reads "Further". This is seen for approximately one second until it cuts away again, and the tombstone once again reads "Treacle" for the remainder of the scene.

-
When all of the clues were identified, the hidden words, when put in the correct order, spelled out "seek me no further", plus an extra hidden word, "or". Viewers could then go to the official Blair Witch website and type the words into a special search box: typing "seek me no further" would play an extra scene from the movie, and typing "seek me no further or" would enable them to add their name to a list of people who had also decoded the message. As of 2008, this function is no longer available.
