My (now) wife and I had no idea what it was either. We had caught a "documentary" about it on the discovery channel, which existed to make you believe this was a real incident. We watched it through, but didn't think much of it.

Then we saw the thing in theaters.

We were scared shitless for like two days. It didn't help when people started hanging those witch shape things in trees by our house:)
