The Jersey Devil is a creature dwelling in the Pine Barrens
of New Jersey. Legend has it that in
1735, a witch named Mother Leeds gave birth to a horrifying monster with
glowing red eyes that flew up the chimney of her home and disappeared into the
Pine Barrens. It is often described as a
kangaroo-like creature having hooves, horns, a forked tail, bat wings, and a
head that looks something like a horse.
Its screams are said to be quite chilling. Belief in the Jersey Devil is quite real and
based on records of concrete occurrences.
To this day, people traveling down the Garden State Parkway or the
Atlantic City Expressway report sightings and tell stories of strange
occurrences. Many continue to believe
that the legendary being is still around disturbing the region and will
continue to do so for generations to come.- The Witchy Stitcher, Cryptid Wiki,
