Many cryptids have been discussed so far on this blog, today, let’s discuss the Jersey Devil, another scary creature which had ruined many inhabitants’ life of New Jersey in the United States!
The Jersey Devil was described as a flying creature just like a dragon with hooves, with quite long legs and wings resembled like a bat. All happened in the 1730s where a prostitute was pregnant for the 13rd time, and cursed the baby in her womb to be a devil. There are hundreds of theories to determine the origin of the Jersey Devil have been recorded, hence, we are not sure if it began from that woman or not. Even after many years, several New Jersey citizens encountered the creature, in fact, a reward has been imposed to capture it but until today, no one has successfully accomplished the job.
When we talk on Jersey devil, we think also Bigfoot, Loch Ness monster and other legendary creatures. No doubt, the Jersey devil was the same, a pure hoax and superstition created many years ago. No such solid evidences were recorded of its existence.
