Grim Philly

Jersey Devil: Origin and Roots, Part V


Listen Later

With a ghost story or two, the mythical cryptid of the New Jersey Pine Barrens’ historical and literary origins are explored from colonial settlement to modernity – and retold through research and banter in this previously unreleased audio from our Jersey Devil series. Joe Wojie, Britnee Smith, Ted Sisco, Tim Collins, and Lauren Krupinski discuss The Devil of Leeds, Daniel and Titan Leeds, early colonial settlements and the governments of New Jersey and New York, the supposed cross-dressing governor Edward Hyde (Lord Cornbury), and how a series of historical personalities and events converged to inform our modern conception of the mythical monster of legend commonly understood as The Jersey Devil.
