And then they wrote "In Bloom" after seeing tons of stick figures hanging in the woods

In December of 1987, three student musicians disappeared in the woods near Aberdeen, Washington while recording a demo.

One year later their footage was found.

...then released sixteen years later by Geffen Records as "With The Lights Out", a 3CD/DVD box set by Nirvana, after years of disputes between surviving bandmembers and the widow of the deceased frontman.

While it looks as though Kurt Cobain is doing his best Blair Witch impersonation as he stares into the corner (above, in a still taken from previously-unreleased video footage appearing on the accompanying DVD), bear in mind that this was years before the late 90's film phenomenon.

Sometimes it seems like everyone ripped off Kurt.
