Deep in the tangled woods of New Jersey, something cries out in the night—a sound like metal on stone, sharp enough to chill the spine. Locals call it the Jersey Devil, a beast stitched from nightmare: hooves, wings, burning eyes, and a scream that has echoed for nearly 300 years. Was it truly born of a curse? Or does the creature endure because we keep its story alive? In this episode, we explore the origins, sightings, and lasting terror of one of America’s oldest and most unsettling legends.
