SynopsisA story exploring the origins of the legendary Jersey Devil, a 'devil-like' creature that has reportedly haunted the Pine Barrens region in New Jersey since 1735, menacing townspeople, worrying livestock, and said to be responsible for all manner of ills., Award-winning author Trinka Hakes Noble weaves a spellbinding tale about the origins of the legend of the Jersey Devil. The Pine Barrens region in New Jersey has long been a place of mystery, with its dark pine groves, black swamps, and dank bogs, oftentimes shrouded in mist and fog. Reputed to be haunted by spirits, it's an unsettling place to be sure. But of all the mysterious happenings and sights to be found in the Pine Barrens, there is none so intriguing as the Jersey Devil. Since its first reported sighting in 1735, local lore has it that a "devil-like" creature with the head of a horse, the wings of a bat, and the hooves of a goat has menaced townspeople, frightened livestock, and caused all manner of trouble over the years. Is the Jersey Devil real? Atmospheric illustrations by artist Gerald Kelley bring the tale to spooky life.
