When I was in high school , we used to get wasted and take girls down into the pinelands in search of the Jersey Devil.. a favorite spot was the old forge at Batsto...

The Jearsy Devil is byfar one of the most freaky urban legends I have researched. Tis a freaky story. Anyone wanna hear the "origin" tale of the Jersy Devil?

"The most common legend around the origin of the Jersey Devil involves a woman with a large family - usually twelve children. The Jersey Devil was her 13th. In some versions the child was born horribly deformed and confined to the cellar but later escaped. In other versions of the story the mother - fed up at discovering she was pregnant yet again - said something along the lines of "Let the Devil take it". The combination of being a 13th child along with this curse resulted in the child being born half-demon.

The name "Leeds" is often associated with the Jersey Devil. Some say that the mother was named Leeds, others that the birth took place at Leeds Point. For this reason the Jersey Devil is sometimes known as the 'Leeds Devil'."

I watched The Hunt For the Jersey Devil on ABC Family, it was schweet. They talked to some guy that said they jersey devil was his brother...:D pff.
