[QUOTE="headknocker, post: 1975541, member: 559453"] I'm from South Jersey and I've always been open-minded but I never felt the Jersey Devil legend was anything more than a crock of sh*t. I've lived in the Atlantic City area for roughly 25 years and I even know one of the Leeds descendants. There's even a road(Jimmy Leeds Road in Galloway Twp) named after one of the family members. The Leeds name is very well-known around Atlantic County. The Jersey Devil is engrained in South Jersey lore. Like I said, I'm VERY open-minded(read my previous posts in this thread [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] ) but I never felt the story was anything more than an old folk's tale. Who knows? It sure is interesting. My aunt and uncle own a Bed & Breakfast in Chillicothe,OH. They renovated the entire 150-year old home and my uncle(now deceased...and the one our daughter claims has visited her on two occasions) often talked about being visited my someone when he was doing work on the place late at night. He wasn't scared of it and he would just say something to the effect of, "I'm here to do good" since he assumed it was the previous owner just checking on the place. His oldest son swears he saw a woman wave to him in the upstairs window when he visited the place for the first time. He thought it was his stepmother until he learned that nobody was in the house at the time. The look on his face was hilarious:D [/QUOTE]
