Haunted Pine Barrens and the Jersey Devil Redux

The Pine Barrens cover 1.1 million acres in New Jersey and the thick wooded area has lent itself to stories of hauntings and dozens of legends. The most famous legend features the Jersey Devil, a tale about a mother giving birth to a devil baby. We'll explore the superstitions that existed in the area around the idea that devil babies could be born and cover the various sightings that have continued far past what would be a reasonable life span. Did Captain Kidd bury treasure here? Does a black shuck wander the forest? And who are all these ghosts? Come with us as we look at the legends of the Pine Barrens.
