In the tenth book of "The Witch and the Entity," the story takes a dramatic turn as the protagonist, a powerful witch named Serena, discovers a mysterious book that contains an ancient entity. This entity possesses immense power and knowledge, promising to grant Serena her deepest desires. However, as she delves deeper into the book's secrets, Serena begins to realize that the entity's intentions may not be as benevolent as they initially seemed. Throughout the book, the main theme centers around the duality of power and the consequences it brings. Serena, desperate to fulfill her ambitions and gain ultimate power, becomes tempted by the entity's promises. She becomes increasingly drawn into its web, willing to sacrifice anything and everything to attain the power she craves.
First of all, let's look back to the story that is told at the beginning of the movie. Each of these killings involve 4 people/entities: 2 victims, 1 killer, and 1 Witch. In these stories about the children murders, the Witch was never the one killing them, she influenced someone else to do it for her.
As the movie goes on, you hear Josh screaming from a distance, and one morning they find a roll of sticks contain what looks like bloody teeth or bone wrapped in Josh s shirt.

She becomes increasingly drawn into its web, willing to sacrifice anything and everything to attain the power she craves. As Serena becomes more entangled with the entity, the dark side of power begins to reveal itself. She learns that the entity feeds off the life force of others, sacrificing innocents to sustain itself.
[The Blair Witch Project] The Final Scene
The Blair Witch Project ends with Heather descending the stairs to the basement. She enters a room and sees Mike with his face in the corner of the room. Heather is screaming his name but he doesn't turn around. The camera hits the floor, implying that Heather was knocked to the ground and probably killed. Then it ends.
As most of us realized, upon watching this final scene, this "facing in the corner while the other person is killed" scenario ties back to the beginning where people are telling the story of Rustin Parr. This was a guy who was influenced by the Blair Witch to bring children in pairs to a house in the woods and kill them. He didn't want the children to watch him kill the other, so he had one stand in the corner while he killed the other. Its not completely clear how he was influenced by the Blair Witch (phyiscally threatened, spiritually possessed Rustin, etc.). Later, he admitted to these crimes and was hanged.
Fast forward to the present day story:
Each night the main characters are camping in the woods, they hear noises coming from all directions. One night, the noises are very loud and they run away from the tent. When they return, the find that one of their backpacks and clothes were all spread out, covered in some sort of slime. After looking through it, they realize it looks like Josh's belongings were singled out, as his clothes were the only ones to get covered in the slime.
The next night, they take turns sitting outside the tent, keeping watch. The next morning they realize Josh is gone. As the movie goes on, you hear Josh screaming from a distance, and one morning they find a roll of sticks contain what looks like bloody teeth or bone wrapped in Josh's shirt.
Near the end, Heather and Mike hear Josh screaming, which leads them to an old house. This is where the final scene occurs.
It seems that most people come to the conclusion that the Blair Witch kills Heather (and probably Mike) here. I disagree.

In these stories about the children murders, the Witch was never the one killing them, she influenced someone else to do it for her.
The witch does not kill Heather and Mike, just as she didn't kill the children. Josh did. If the Blair Witch used someone else (Rustin Parr) why would she do it herself now? Especially since she now, presumably, has someone in her possession (physically or spiritually, depending on how you look at it). She even seemed to single Josh out from the very beginning of the group's filming project with the slime, and taking him from the group. Josh was not calling for help when he was in the cabin, he was luring Heather and Mike. And the Blair Witch did not kill anyone, she influenced Josh to do so, just as she did to Rustin.
edit: I did some googling, and this actually does seem to be a common theory, as I assumed since it's pretty plausable. I just read something else that supports this theory, so I figured I'd add it here: throughout the movie, the group wakes up to find little piles of rocks surrounding their tent, which they suspect has something to do with the Blair Witch. Earlier in the movie, Josh kicks over one of these piles. Heather puts it back together and kisses it, as if to not upset the witch. This could be the reason the Blair Witch singles out Josh to begin with.
