Hunt for the Jersey Devil (Part 1/3)
Added 2024-10-13 19:21:51 +0000 UTCIn this episode, we'll explore the more alternative, less 'mainstream' crpytid nicknamed ' the 'Jersey Devil,' who is said to be the demonic 13th child of Ms. Leeds, a quaker matriarch who lived in Leeds Point, NJ in the mid-1700s. According to local legend, the Jersey Devil has been haunting the Pine Barrens and it's surrounding communities for centuries.
In this episode, we speak with a local eyewitness, town skeptics, and Rutgers University folklorist, Angus K. Gillespie, who gives an anthropological breakdown of how the myth came to be.
A lot more coming soon and we hope you are enjoying this cryptid series.

2024-10-16 18:50:52 +0000 UTCyou should have gone to the Ojibwe to learn about Sabe (bigfoot). Sabe represents honesty, one of the 7 Grandfather Teachings, a code of ethics that has been with the people for 10,000 years. there 7 animals that represent the teachings; courage (brear), humility (wolf), wisdom (beaver), love (eagle), truth (turtle), bison (respect), and Sabe (honesty). i do not think that an animal that does not exist would be used to represent honesty in these teachings. i never believed in bigfoot until i learned the Seven Grandfather Teachings. they say he only shows himself to the most honest of people, and that he can disappear at will, right before your very eyes...

2024-10-15 03:45:50 +0000 UTCBenjemin Franklin had over 15 baby cadavers found under his home. I don’t buy the official explanation. He was part of the same cult and enjoyed raping slaves and sacrificing babies most likely.

2024-10-14 03:48:52 +0000 UTCThe best way to kill someone and their kid is this right here in the olden days. Make people too scared to investigate. They didn't even understand germs at this time dude. Scarey times.

2024-10-14 03:24:21 +0000 UTCKeep going hard in the paint on Mexico stories! As an American, it's so much more fascinating to hear and, more importantly, empathize the sentiments and trials of our neighbors to the South. Focus on what drives you, never doubt yourself!

2024-10-13 21:32:05 +0000 UTCThis is obviously done tongue in cheek and more about the people who believe in it and the history behind the folklore.

2024-10-13 21:15:40 +0000 UTCI've never thought about it, but is this where the name of their hockey team came from?

2024-10-13 20:57:59 +0000 UTCOne thing I definitely believe is that when Mrs. Leeds was pregnant with her 13th child, she wished it to not be a child. I believe this because she had THIRTEEN FUCKING KIDS

2024-10-13 20:53:10 +0000 UTCIn terms of the hottest Jersey Devil spots that I have heard of: it would be Tabernacle, NJ which has numerous reported attacks on dogs and children in the past 50 years (check out Weird NJ since they archive everything bizarre in NJ).
