Jersey Devil: America Ka Most Mysterious Monster

Kahani Ki Shuruaat – Jersey Devil ka Janm

Jersey Devil ki kahani start hoti hai 1700s ke New Jersey, USA mein – ek jagah jise kehte hain Pine Barrens. Local folklore ke mutabiq, ek aurat thi jiska naam tha Mother Leeds. Uske 12 bachche already ho chuke the. Jab uska 13th child hone wala tha, to usne gusse mein kaha:

“Let this one be the devil!”

Kehte hain us raat usne ek bacha janam diya jo kuch hi seconds mein ek monstrous creature mein badal gaya – bat-like wings, hooves, horns aur ek horrifying screech ke saath.

Woh creature window se nikal gaya aur Pine Barrens ke jungle mein chala gaya – tab se log use Jersey Devil kehte hain.
