IN THIS EPISODE: Without a doubt, New Jersey’s oldest, most enduring, and important pieces of folklore is the tale of the infamous Jersey Devil. For three hundred years Jerseyans have told tales of this mythical beast that stalks the Pine Barrens and terrorizes local residents… but is it merely legend, or could there truly be some kind of real creature that fits the horrifying description?
