Strange events in New Jersey 100 years ago: a story forgotten in history

Every New Jerseyan has heard of the Jersey Devil. The infamous cryptid (a creature whose existence has yet to be proven) is the stuff of legend. Often described as a winged biped with hooves, horns, and a horse-like face, accounts of its appearance vary. Many of us grew up hearing stories about the terrifying demons that spawn around campfires and under the sheets, but to us it’s just been some sort of dark fairy tale.

What made everyone go crazy that week? Was it mass hysteria? Did the Jersey Devil really exist? Some believe the culprit was a Sand Hill Crane, a giant bird with a nasty temper. Whatever it was, history often forgets the week when the Jersey Devil was “real.” For more on New Jersey, read my previous post on 16 Urban Legends in the Garden State.
