A holographic will is a will and testament that has been entirely handwritten and signed by the testator. Normally, a will must be signed by witnesses attesting to the validity of the testator's signature and intent, but in many jurisdictions, unwitnessed holographic wills are treated as valid as witnessed wills and need only to meet minimal requirements in order to be probated
There must be evidence that the testator actually created the will, which can be proved through the use of witnesses, handwriting experts, or other methods.
The testator must have had the intellectual capacity to write the will, although there is a presumption that a testator had such capacity unless there is evidence to the contrary.
The testator must be expressing a wish to direct the distribution of his estate to beneficiaries

Generally, a holographic will is one that is presented in other than written form. Most often you make a video of yourself making the same statement ("I leave to my cousin my Barbie collection." etc.) you would make in a written will.
Hope that helps.

This type of will must be in writing and signed by the testator. There is no witnessing requirement. Even if there are sections of the will that are not in the testator's handwriting, as long as the material provisions are in the testator's handwriting, the will is valid.

My school can barely afford a working computer lab so I'm just gonna take a guess. I assmue what you are talking about is some sort of will in digital form. Just record it on a video recorder or record yourself saying it with a tape recorder.

A holographic will? Are you like from the future or something?
