Jersey Devil

The Jersey Devil is the Bigfoot of New Jersey, flying around in the Pine Barrens.

Legend has it that in 1735, a mother who was just about to give birth put a curse on her coming child. She made a deal with the devil to trade her infant for her freedom from a loveless marriage. The baby is born, and within an hour grows into a gruesome creature that is as tall as two men, with huge wings and a tail. Then he flew up to the Pine Barrens to live all these years. Of course, stupid people have to believe stupid things, especially if they live close to an area with a centuries-old myth. There are people who claim they saw the Jersey Devil, blah blah blah.

The creature was the inspiration for the name of the state's NHL team, the New Jersey Devils.
