Doug

No, and he won't for all of it.

Mike

Well, no, he might for some not fuck him. Okay. Jason, you don't get to go.

Doug

On to do with learn today,

Mike

these are probably going to be a little shorter than our normal episodes. I imagine these are probably going to be maybe around half an hour or so long. But it depends on you know, what we're talking about.

Doug

We're going to info dump on Jason about all the cryptozoological bullshit that we know. We're going to obviously have a topic each episode, and then we're going to kind of let them do a little q&a at the end and see, see where we're at. That's why

Mike

we should have wrote a test. Jason, are you ready?

Jason

I think

Doug

I was ready. This train is prepped. Oh, yeah. Okay,

Jason

I prepped it.

Mike

Can you do me a favor? Can you just add like a little like, monster growl like right here? Like, right, right here. Just Thank you. Sure. Thank you. Anyway, all right. Let's start so rar for over 250 years, the pinelands of New Jersey have not only been home to plenty of pine trees and Sandy roads, but one very terrifying resident Oh, fuck the Jersey Devil.

Jason

Yeah, I don't I know nothing. Devil. That cartoon thing that I've sent in

Mike

the right when you sent that in our chat. I was like, oh fuck he knows.

Doug

message me like right away. Do we tell him what it is?

Mike

So he's got to know by now. The Jersey Devil has another name. It's also known as the Leeds devil. This beast is said to be kangaroo like in shape. With a face of a horse. A head of a dog. Wings of a bat and having horns and a tail.

Jason

wings of a bat? Which can you even picture what this creature looks like?

Mike

The head of a horse face of a horse and head of a dog?

Jason

Wait what face of a horse?

Doug

About a dog with a long face?

Jason

Oh like those like a fuck? What are those racing dog? The greyhounds?

Mike

Yeah, kinda Oh my god. Like Alas, the dogs are just like skin bananas now.

Doug

Bananas.

Mike

The Lassie dogs have like bananas now. It's really really long.

Doug

Have you ever seen a Hammerhead bat?

Jason

Yes, actually saw not too long ago.

Doug

That's like the best way to describe it.

Jason

Okay, those things are ugly as fuck.

Doug

So is the Jersey Devil?

Mike

Yeah. All right. I'll put up the I don't do for us the social whenever this goes out.

Jason

Can I at least have a picture of what this thing looks like? Yeah, Google actually looks like yeah, let's keep going. But okay.

Mike

So though the sightings of this creature are pretty rare. The legend still lives on even if you only know the name and nothing else about the legend. So we're going to get into what the hell this freakish horse fuck think came from. So what the fuck is that? Yeah,

Doug

it's terrible is what it is. Yeah, it's

Mike

quite the beast. Looks like a doesn't have the face of a horse and head of a dog.

Jason

just looks like a no This one is just somebody who took Photoshop and like blended the trees into the shape of a horse dragon dog bat. There you go. It's all it is Porsche dragon dog baton. Okay. All right there because I'm to manbearpig Yes.

Mike

So back in 1735 and Pine Barrens, a woman known as mother Leeds was the mother of 12 fucking children. Yes. Oh, I guess isn't that uncommon for back in, you know, 1700s like that? Because kids were dying of like fucking typhoid and shit. But it's

Doug

also kind of a miracle though because like back in the day, like, they didn't have any fancy equipment to help people. It was a numbers game. I fucking go and check them out. Check them out,

Jason

like after 12 like, she can't feel anything though. She's done.

Doug

She's basically just a torso.

Mike

Mm hmm. So after finding out she was having a 13th child fuck Yes, she's having a 13th child. She cries out, let it be the devil. And the child was born normal. It was just a little baby. But then it was this little baby Just a little baby. But then it quickly sprouted horns and wings. And like wait,

Jason

okay, was this like a quickly like,

Mike

oh, like like she was holding it's a little baby Just

Jason

look at my when if I went to the bathroom right now right now and like just pushed and tried to push hair out of my face and happened is this like, that's what you're talking about?

Mike

Yes, but you're pretty much that exact same thing. Okay, so I started sprouting horns and wings and then with a terrifying screech the baby unfold his wings and flew up the chimney towards the swamp. I'm getting real into this if you haven't noticed.

Doug

I like it now.

Mike

There are some versions of the fella off I just wanted to keep the enthusiasm going. So but now there is some version of the legend that say that mother leaves was a witch and the father was the devil there's like multiple stories I found two different stories one saying that mother leads his name was Jane another said her name is Deborah so there's I noticed that Yeah, there's no like one tail of the Jersey Devil

Doug

there's actually very little information on this

Mike

yeah it's kind of a makeup your own fucking thing on this shit. You

Jason

know I'm noticing a pattern with the topics we are discussing on this podcast and

Mike

welcome to Dont Look Under The Internet fuckin you figure it out.

Doug

Your research is as good as

Mike

you do the research fuckin one says that mother Leeds was a witch and the father was the devil. Others say the child was born normal then rapidly starting to grow and killed everyone in the room. Mother Father

Doug

doctor and all waited play the game so okay, this child was born and you're saying it

Mike

quickly killed everyone it was born normal and then just decided it was going to start growing so there's a version

Jason

again back to the fucking pushing here. Yes,

Mike

so there was a story where the child was born a demon thing and just grew to like giant size and butchered everyone there was another one where it was more normal and just sprouted wings and shit and just flew off. So again there's no like one tail is just there's something happened

Doug

it's got a conflicting origin stories to say the least. Okay,

Mike

yeah, there's no say I'm noticing there's no set record of that night The only like, true bit of information on this is that there was a woman named mother leads that's that's really the only hard fact on this entire story you know,

Jason

then the date and the date and that's it you know go with what works if if you know something that's true. Go ahead and say that all you want but don't commit if your horse bat baby is not so right time.

Mike

Well, yeah, so even like I was doing when I was doing research on this the New Jersey like official government website nj.gov. They. This is what they say happened that night. This is a quote directly from a government website.

Doug

Let me tell you they are banking off this. Yeah. Oh, yeah. This

Mike

is this is merchandise. They love this. It's the Loch Ness of New Jersey.

Doug

New Jersey Shore. They got to do something. This is major New Jersey Shore snow trailer for the other?

Mike

I think so. So this is what the introduce new jersey government says about the night on a dark and stormy night and 1735. Something terrible happened in the Pine Barrens near Leeds point. Thunder how and the wind rod outside. Inside a small house mother Leeds was giving birth to her 13th baby. No one knew for sure exactly what happened. But people had lots of ideas. That's it. No, they didn't. They had they ended on people had lots of ideas.

That it to me that just implies people made up story people's

Jason

brains wrong.

Mike

Yeah. I guess it was 100 that's the only way to come up with they didn't have Netflix back then. So they just had to make shit up as they went.

Doug

I mean, that's kind of cool. Coming out of the 1700s I get in breeding and like this was just like the town like the village bicycle lady in the town and everyone's like, oh God, pregnant again. Like lady leads, it seems like

Mike

the only thing that we have to go off of are like a handful of eyewitness accounts and stories. that's really about it.

Jason

So okay. So, what are some of the eyewitness accounts? Well, let me get there for you. We'll get there.

Mike

I got a ton of shit written down and Doug does to double actually go over a lot more of them afterwards. Yeah, after I go through my little monologue here.

Jason

So just to give you an idea of what's happening on my end of all of this,

Mike

yeah. So how are you feeling right now?

Jason

I'm feeling pretty great. I'm a little drunk. But I also told myself that for every piece of information that I either don't understand or have, like, can't fathom, I'm going to be drinking.

Mike

Oh, what do you not understand? Oh, what a fun time.

Jason

It's not like this is new info for him. This is all new info. Yeah, well, I don't know. I know. I know that. The Jersey Devil is a devil of some sort.

Mike

This is the jersey devil. The devil in the Stromboli with the pastrami, a Ma

Doug

Ma meatloaf. So

Mike

here's some of the the stories about the Jersey Devils, sightings and whatnot. So in the 18th and 19th centuries, the devil was spotted here and there throughout the pines barons region, scaring locals and wanders. howls in spine tingling whales were often heard from the Black Forest and swamp areas along with the mutilated corpses of animals, such as cows and other domestic animals and chickens.

Jason

So I just want you to know that when you said whales like hmm, I just pictured whales now like, no screams Oh,

Mike

no, all you hear is her trying just fine tangling whales, which is like

Jason

coming from the forest. Thank you for joining us on whale sounds. Dolphins, or sky bears. Anyway,

Mike

so the the most infamous report of the Jersey Devil was in 1909 when strange reports of the beast started to emerge in Delaware Valley and strange tracks were being found in the snow. These tracks were found going over and under fences through fields and even across rooftops of houses. So this motherfucker is just like jumping from rooftop rooftop like he's the goddamn Batman.

Doug

The sun's like a Christmas song.

Mike

There's not a reindeer Timmy. It's the Josie davlin

Doug

maybe Oh my god.

Jason

Or at least he knows where it came from. Oh, breeding them.

Mike

Oh, he's wait Jersey Devils breeding Santos,

Doug

sexy Jersey Devil or the

Jason

other way around.

Mike

Santa is breeding the Jersey Devil.

Jason

And in turn, the Jersey Devil is breeding Santa.

Mike

Wow, it's like a human centipede.

Jason

Anyone knows? Or even mobius strip. So Alright, yeah, so.

Mike

So people were even reporting attacks and tracks in cities like Philadelphia, you know, the great city of Philadelphia. I'm trying to think of things that go on in Philadelphia. The only thing I can think of is like

Unknown

Philly cheesesteak. It's always Yeah,

Doug

so like, saying so

Mike

in Philadelphia, apparently. Again, they found tracks and shit like that. Panic started to sweep over these towns and cities. It was reported in cities like Philadelphia that, like you know how back in the day use news like bloodhounds and stuff for like, hunting down criminals. Apparently they try to use bloodhounds to track the Jersey Devil.

Doug

Where did they get to sniffed?

Mike

It's like tracking I'm assuming the tracks left in like the mud in the snow.

Jason

Like a footprint or something? Yeah, but I don't know if they found like some like an old thong that he Well, they did have, like mutilated.

Mike

This is the Jersey Devils use

Doug

condoms almost on

Jason

the way right?

Mike

They use contraception contraceptive of the Jersey Devil.

Unknown

Oh god.

Mike

So the bloodhounds even refuse to pick up the sense of the beast in hemington, which I guess is near the Philip

Doug

hammington Hammonton pan and I wish it was hammington

Mike

schools around the area is decided they're going to close down because of lack of attendance throughout lower New Jersey and Philly. Some mills in the area were even forced to close because workers wouldn't leave their homes in fear of getting snatched by the beast in

Jason

the woods. Because you're not 1735 was just wild.

Unknown

It was a wild fucking time.

Doug

Like they were fucking wild. And

Mike

honestly, I don't blame these people because people are dying of like, there was no OSHA regulations back then they're getting cut off and Mills people are dying of like yellow fever and not have to deal with a fucking demon.

Jason

Or a horse dog bat.

Mike

Yeah, stay home. That's even worse. The baby This was even cited in Pennsylvania in both Camden and Bristol where the police shot the creature but to no avail.

Doug

We wait went to no avail.

Mike

Missed that shot.

Doug

So I pulled up my gun and I started blasting.

Mike

They shot this now and they missed every shot. I guess back then they were using like those old timey muskets that didn't hit

Jason

longer. Yeah, fuck instead stamp it down with the big cottonwood. Yeah, the ball in there and it was like a drunk.

Mike

A few a few days later, the creature attacked a social club meeting in the night and took off into the air flapping its bat like wings. The creature even terrorized a trolley car full of passengers before flying away into the night again. witnesses to the trolley attack say it looked like a flying kangaroo which matches that struck fear in

Jason

the kangaroos are flying now.

Mike

Paul Crikey This is why I left Australia. Australia.

Jason

We don't even have anyone in Australia. start listening to our shit Australia. Please him and watching you like fucking playing Plague Inc. Trying to infect you but it's just not happening. I paid to sponsor our ad on your shit. So hopefully one of you see

Mike

just crack open a jar Vegemite.

Doug

Nice Vegemite.

Mike

Vegemite. May encom. Calm listen to Dont Look Under The Internet, right? That's my worst fucking Australian

Jason

attempt at all ends back I'm being British. For now. I tried to do any dumb bloke. The only phrase I can say with an Australian accent is Australia's got rocks. And that's it. That's true. If you set a noise.

Mike

If you say rise up lights real fast. It sounds like you're saying razor blades and an Australian accent.

Jason

Rise up lights. Rise. You say beer. making beer get an accent is Jamaican for bacon. Bacon bacon. I'm hungry.

Mike

So in West Collingswood, it appeared on the roof of a house. Witnesses claimed it was an ostrich like creature what is higher than on the seeing turn their houses on it and it just flew away? Just like shoo

Doug

you're out here. Australia

Mike

lasted like creature. A little different from a kangaroo

Jason

people were scared of a weird thing. There

Mike

was a 1700s

Doug

I don't know what this is. I hate it. It looks like a naked bird.

Mike

Do you even think they knew what an ostrich was back in the 1700s? Yeah, I'm

Doug

pretty sure they did. Not like they just popped up in the 1900s

Mike

No, I mean like people in like places were asked ostriches or native new beliefs in America shoes back then. I guess your story 1835 years zoos. Are

Jason

you sure you know one factor that send us an email?

Mike

Well, no, no, I can't keep talking. You're not going to listen, you're going to be looking at zoos and went on a rabbit hole. PT Barnum in June, you're going to be buying books of animals.

Doug

So remember when we said this?

Mike

So after this, because this is 75? Yep. 93. Actually, this is at the 19th century.

Jason

So that would be now I'm teaching you some shit. Take versus Zoo

Mike

7093. So keep in mind, all of this is happening in the span of one week. Three years. Now this is happening in

Doug

like one week. I'll get to that in a little bit.

Mike

Yeah. So the entire week, more and more people reported livestock being slaughtered as well. In 1909. more bad news arose when one woman reported the beast tried to eat her dog in tow, she hit it with a broomstick. And nevermind guys, in the span of a week in 1909. The Jersey Devil made such reputation for himself that it's

still known to this day. Now, although sightings have been kind of slow and not really there, up until now, like 1909 was really like when the show was poppin there's suddenly throughout time but nothing really

Jason

critical question for you. Yes. Do the sightings go up or down around the invention of cameras? Oh,

Mike

definitely down there there's a picture online Nike funny. It's like hard proof of the Jersey Devil. Look at this image and it's like an image of a goat in a tree. It's a goat with like, you can tell if you look it up. It's like a goat like leaving a tree with like wings on it, but it's the most like shittily photoshopped thing I think I've seen in a long

time. So although cases have gone down, many people still report like strange footprints shadows moving in front of their cars, loud whales from the forest, all keeping consistent with the reports of old goddamn forest whales. There are so many stories about the creatures such as driving by the devil in the pale moonlight, and the devil on Route nine. Those are two stories. The Jersey Devil has become basically the mascot of New Jersey. You know they they put that shit on everything.

They put it on fucking t shirts, coffee mugs, they made a video game called the Jersey Devil on the PlayStation, which I don't know if y'all played I did. It has nothing to do with the Chertsey temple. It's just like some there's the plot of the dreams of devil game. It's some like mutant baby thing that grows up it wears like a purple and red spandex suit. And it fights weird Newton vegetables.

Jason

Isn't the New Jersey hockey team. The Jersey Devils Yep,

Mike

yep, that's another one too. So they're they're cashing in on the ship.

Jason

So they literally they've discovered this urban legend and they are hanging on to

Mike

Yes, right now. Again, they The game has nothing to do with it. But they're the Jersey Devil pops up in like pop culture shit like on TV shows. The X Files does a fuckin episode on it. podcast, podcast. Yeah, podcasts that

Doug

have cryptid corners. I actually just watched that X Files episode today. It's garbage. It's so it's hard. There's an episode not even an actual monster. It's just like some random bitch. There's an episode. You remember those feelings? I was so disappointed. I was like, Listen forever. And then I was like, well, I okay,

Mike

there's episodes. There's an episode. Remember that show? Monster quest. The History Channel on the History Channel. I used to watch it all the fucking time when I was little but they did an episode on it. And boy, did they try to stretch that into 45 minutes.

Doug

They kept doing the same shit.

Mike

It was just oh, that like there's a scene where they go out in the woods. And it's like three in the afternoon. And they're like our will split into a team of four. They'll split into a team of four will communicate via walk and pocket. And then like they get a walkie talkie since Oh, we heard a thing. They're like, Oh, did you see it? And they're like, No, no, we heard we heard something though. It's like Yes, fine. Probably a turkey or something.

Or in the woods at three in the afternoon ships just running around. They did

Doug

a fucking terrible like reenactment

Mike

was so great. So now even though there hasn't really been any hard evidence of the creature, locals to this day are still afraid to go out into the woods alone. They're still afraid of the myth. I guess if you heard the story long enough. Over time, the accounts start to kind of fuck with you. You know if you live in that town, you know what I mean? If you live in that town you grew up like don't go in the woods Jersey Devils gonna get scared to go in the woods too.

Doug

I get that. Um,

Mike

I can definitely see what they're afraid of the myth, but it would definitely seem that the devil made a little pit stop to New Jersey. Before heading down to Georgia. God

Jason

fucking dammit. Are you? Did you do this whole episode just to set up that fucking fun.

Mike

I needed a fun to do and I'm like, how can I do? How can I sign off with a fantastic punk? And then in my head, my head just goes well, the devil went down to Georgia. And I'm like, great, George. I'm just looking for a solo to steal. He was living at home.

Jason

Now he fucked a kangaroo. Yeah, they flew away. They live happily ever after now

Mike

ducks ducks got some timelines set up here for more of the famous sightings. Yeah,

Doug

so this is like the timeline of the sightings that we have actually, like recorded or at least that we know of. I've kind of condensed them because some of them were damaged just like yeah, we saw. So we got 1735 birth of the the Jersey Devil, five years that He terrorizes this place. So we've got five years and then we go to 1740 we have the exorcism that was performed on the Jersey Devil. That lasted for 100 years, so nobody saw him for 100 years. So hear me out Rick and

Morty. So after terrorizing eating livestock screaming in the pines the Jersey Devil was exercised by a priest in 1740. The exorcism was to last for 100 years with the exception of a couple sightings until 1840 the Jersey Devil was fairly quiet

Mike

doesn't say like he doesn't say he goes into the woods and just exercises the woods or does he actually find the creature? I don't remember

Doug

I have like I said I have like a very like broken down because I just love it.

Mike

I just imagined walking through the woods with like, you know in the movies where they have that like Bell looking thing that they're like just like

Jason

shaking bring out today

Mike

know that they're like waiting and it's like whipping the water on like no yeah, I figured that's cool. I just imagine him doing that to like trees and be like,

Doug

get out of here. Get out of here. Get on fuck yourselves. You don't I didn't sign up for this shit. So yeah, exercise for 100 years. We get to 1840 the devil went on a rampage. And the region lost a lot of sheep and chickens. That's his favorite food by the way she didn't. sheep and chicken

Mike

is the healthiest diet.

Jason

I mean not the least he also looks like a fat balding horse with wings. So

Mike

every new jerseyan

Jason

default person for New Jersey bowling horse with a kid Okay, we need to leave like a portion of the country untouched because every city we talk about is shit. like yeah, go fuck yourselves. I'll do the same shit about where we're from. I don't even know better. Please do whatever we talk shit about your your town. Please know that a? We don't know what the fuck we're talking about on that front. We only know weird internet shit. And also we don't think we're better than you. We

probably think the opposite. No, I'm

Mike

better than you. You'll get that through your thick head.

Doug

I'm better than just smarter,

Mike

faster, stronger.

Doug

Guys, I've only made it to 1840 go get 10

Mike

you dog.

Doug

I hate both of you so much. There's like 200 years left. Alright, so from 1840 gets really quiet again. For some reason we don't get a whole lot of reported anything. But then in 1909, which he had mentioned earlier, there's like, just this span of like a ton of sightings from January 16 to January 21. And then that that so there's tons of reports. They all come out of Bristol, Burlington. I want to say glow Chester? I don't really know stir that

word. Pemberton. Morristown, Trenton, Camden Atlantic City all reports of the like the Jersey Devil. We just did. We just see a bunch of them. And like each each each each one of these actually has a bunch of like, it's just like, I saw I looked up and it was flying away.

Mike

And there was Bigfoot.

Doug

I was awakened by strange noises. Oh my god. Like, it's all just like, really like. So what you would imagine a sighting would sound like was this just kind of a way for parents to like, scare the fuck out of their children to do what they were told.

Mike

Maybe I think I mean, if you don't eat your broccoli, the Jersey Devil is going to come and eat your face

Doug

off. It's funny that you mentioned that I came out a couple of these sightings involve children and actually a good handful of them. But either way, I don't know. I can, I can see that. But so we go from 1909 we hit 1951. The roaring 50s. Yeah, He terrorizes a Gibbs town

for two days. And it started with two boys being so scared that they went into convulsions is what the sighting says the town actually went searching for the creature in the woods, but the police decided that they were going to arrest anyone that was caught in the woods after dark. But there were actually reports of strange footprints found and the ones that sounds about right. Like, hey, we were trying to keep you safe fuel in the woods. We're gonna put you in jail and charge you a bunch

of money. Yeah, right. Or, how about you do something else

Mike

arrest that horse man? Well,

Doug

they were like, they were basically trying to like, say, like, Hey, this is a hoax. Like, stop being a bunch of fucking idiots. Like, don't do this shit. Because if it is real, and when you die, you're gonna be real pissed.

Mike

I'm gonna have to clean up the body paperwork.

Doug

Don't make my life worse. And we trees we kill on fucking paperwork and dead bodies here. This one's actually like my favorite because like the actual whole story is kind of funny, but it says a 1973 so we fast forward like 20 years or so. A group of drunks spot the Jersey Devil flying through the woods over a lot of parked cars. It was weird though, because everyone like immediately sobered up and then all had the same story at that, huh? It looked like a big deer with big

black wings. And they all remember glowing eyes. It's Rudolph. I'm telling you that it all comes back to Santa.

Jason

Is there a way we could twist this to like, prove that the Jersey Devil is just Rudolph? That's possible. The flying horse dog. bat. Santa's little helper aka reindeer? Cuz we all know those are the same.

Mike

Santa gives you presence Rudolph eats your pet.

Jason

Oh, or is it just Krampus Krampus eat Nope. cramp. Ah, sir. Oh, no, I didn't like how that rolled off the throat. Um, well, I will say that I'm way more knowledgeable about the Jersey Devil. Oh, there's

Mike

more.

Doug

Oh, yeah, there is we haven't even slammed into the 2000s yet. Okay, it's it's really it's pretty short for me. out, but

Mike

remember how you said does it? Does it get worse when photography becomes more more? Yeah.

Jason

Okay. All right. Are there gonna be some pictures available on?

Mike

We can I can put them on the thing on the whenever this comes out. I'll post some pictures. Yeah,

Doug

that's fine. Such crap. Anyways, we jumped 20 more years we're in 1993 a group of Boy Scouts that they felt almost paralyzed when they saw it. So they were on a camping trip. Basically this thing you know, comes flying out of the woods. They said that they felt paralyzed, which which seemed like hours, but it was mere moments so they felt like this like overwhelming dread, basically.

Mike

And then he stole all their popcorn, and then gave them the scared you shitless badge.

Doug

Yeah, pretty much and the funniest thing is, they didn't fucking leave. They just went into their tents and slept it off. Well, that was weird. Anyway, here's how you tie a knot remain in this these woods that clearly how's something terrible and killer? Like? Sure go to bed? Clearly the camp later was like No, I haven't diddled the children yet.

Mike

Well, it was it was the early 90s you know, no one cared. Oh, Jay was killing people. Just fine dandy. No one cared back then.

Doug

No, that wasn't too long ago. They still don't care now. What the fuck are we talking about? Think here a little. But then there's two more two more sightings I got for you. So we got 2002 people reported seeing it off the Turnpike in New Jersey in your garden State Parkway. It leapt off the ground flew flew off towards the ocean. They didn't get any facial features but sent out very long tail had human arms and legs. A very large wingspan human arms and legs Okay, that's a new I know it's it's

Mike

all just fucking human arms and legs on the arm. I think I saw it. It looked like a tattoo but it was in like Japanese I think it's super strength. And then I pretty sure it had frosted tips don't God and a spray tan.

Doug

Just the Jersey Shore this situation people just want migrating North for the next decade. It's getting cold See you later. And then actually I think I think I like this one the best not not the drunks. This one says this was in 2008 This is the last thing I can find as far as like an actual written down citing I'm sure there's some some elsewhere but says a car wreck was seen between a Honda and an SUV. A

passer by? said they saw the Jersey Devil standing on top of the wreckage, just furiously screaming and yelling and he and the person

Jason

I really hope that it sounds like that that would be amazing. I'm pretty sure Mike just played like an actual recording of what the jerseys

Mike

right? They're just filling out surance forms. And this thing just full, full full lands. Sounds like those tired commercials of the talking state.

Doug

What the fuck? So long story short, basically the screaming that you're hearing I guess it was telepathically telling the passer by to leave the scene so they just instinct that's kind of what I was thinking I was like yeah, that's like a bat monkey bear thing like fucking kangaroo flapping around like I'm gonna get the fuck out of there and it's

Mike

Darla is that kangaroo bat horse creatures screaming at me.

Jason

I mean, appearance aside, yeah, just reaching. Like if I saw a person standing on the corner of a street somewhere screaming I'd be like, let's go blind.

Mike

Let's go on the other side of the sidewalk.

Doug

Yeah. Street cross the street. Right.

Mike

But that is the Jersey Devil in you know, in a nutshell. Not too much to go off of but it's still one of my favorites just because how flunk out of here say yeah, just because how goofy it is. It's so fun.

Jason

It is. I mean, I enjoyed learning about it. I've heard the name over and over but I've never really like you know, sunk my teeth into it. This was actually kind of one that I wasn't that familiar with too. Like I you know, I do my fair share of digging into crypto stuff but I've never really dug into this one too. So I spearheaded this let's Yeah, the only cryptid that I know almost anything about aside from like, a werewolf or something like

that is a moth man. Yeah, well as my homie fucking I don't know.

Mike

Hello, more names.

Jason

I mean, everyone knows Bigfoot too. Oh, God, that's saturated as fuck. Everybody knows. My

Mike

name is Saul swallow Mothman. Attorney at Law. Are you having problems with your diabetic medication? Call me. I'll help you get a full lump sum of cash.

Doug

Oh, My gallon flaring up, I gotta get off the call now.

Mike

I gotta go destroy your bridge.

Doug

I'll see you later guys.

Mike

Well, do you have any questions and we could have answers maybe?

Jason

Yeah, I I do have a question. We probably don't have an answer, but it's fine. I can make one up for him. It's your fucking job to have an answer. I don't care if it's right. Shoot, just shoot your shot. Yeah. Um, so this the flare ups from sightings was from what 1735 to like

Mike

17 4909 was when the lot

Jason

of shit okay, I misunderstood that.

Doug

Yeah, cuz 7035 to 1740 is when he was born and then just terrorized that village for five years. Was there something about the village like or was it just because he was there and was upset other people were too

Mike

Yeah, I think it was just like, a territory thing. Okay, like he peed all around the city and was like, This is my city. I'm gonna fuck all of you. Oh, if you're

Doug

from Leeds New Jersey, can you tell us why your village sucks. And we just want to understand why it's

Mike

not Leeds New Jersey. It's Pine Barrens whatever there is a Leeds Leeds point. I

Jason

know we have to get our fucking cities right. Well, I have it here listed as Leeds New Jersey. Oh, that's what the Google Maps is telling me. Oh, well, then I might be wrong. But actually, the pen leads me too well, there's like smithville

Mike

let's just say there's there's Pine Barrens and there's a leads point. So maybe it's that

Jason

either away? I think the only question I might have is like, Is there something in New Jersey that like? This creature is attracted to

Mike

the

Doug

isn't there a doorway to hell in New Jersey somewhere? The Devil's butthole Do you know what I'm talking about? I swear,

Jason

I thought I did that.

Mike

Yeah, I'm telling you. It's called like the Devil's Hole.

Jason

I've seen the gate thing. I've seen the gates of hell. Like some new jersey though. It's just like, it's a bunch of active volcanoes that you know, solidify and it literally looks like there's a bunch of screaming souls reaching out of a lot of it. Goes Fuck, but I don't think it's the same thing. Who knows anymore? New Jersey is a weird place. There's something in the fucking water in New Jersey called like the gates of hell. I don't know. Maybe I'm not gonna dive into it now.

Maybe you don't mind me. I don't know if I have any other questions. Aside from that I'm informed for sure. And I'm quite a bit drunkard started recording this so awesome.

Mike

Well, I guess that ends the first episode of cryptid corner cryptic we're hoping that this keeps becoming a thing because I love monsters abs.

Jason

If you guys could message either Doug or Mike please don't message me. Because I don't want to know this. His whole point of this is that I don't know anything about any of these cryptids and I'm just gonna get drunk well absorbing information send

Mike
