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.
