Dear Fellow
Devil Hunters,
Finally, solid
proof of the Jersey Devil’s existence!
Last month I
ventured into the woods with my friends. We were taking a day trip to
the Pine Barrens, and everything was going OK until I made a wrong turn
onto a dirt road and got lost. You see, I’m so bad with directions that
I can’t even drive to a neighboring town with a map, a GPS system, and a
tour guide. So it’s no surprise that we were in the middle of nowhere.
Soon a shroud of darkness fell over the tall pine trees and we were
engulfed in the night. But we made a campfire and fashioned a sturdy
tent out of maple leaves and in the morning we were able to drive back
home safely.
The next day I
saw the Jersey Devil in 7-11 buying a Slurpee! It was cherry, the color
of blood! He looked sort of like Bob Saget, but with a horse’s head and
a demon’s body. So in reality he looked nothing like Bob Saget. We
locked eyes but he paid really quickly and fled out the door! He didn’t
even take his change (81 cents).
About a week
later, my friends and I were pretty bored after playing the
Teletubbies first-person shooter video game for 26 hours straight,
so we went up to the Pine Barrens again. This time Bernice drove but she
made a wrong turn, just as I did, and landed us on an unmarked dirt
road. As we slowly drove the length of this passage we looked in horror
upon signposts streaked with the crimson gleam of fresh blood. The signs
had inscriptions like “Turn back!” and “Danger!” and “Seriously, turn
back now, didn’t you see the other signs?!” A man with no eyes appeared
at my car window and yelled something about a monster. But we grew bored
of the woods, and shrugged our shoulders and went back home and ate
popsicles.
Then the next
day I was in Blockbuster, trying to rent Veggie Tales and an
adult movie at the same time to see their reaction, when I saw the
Jersey Devil in the comedy section! He tried to hide from me but I found
him, cowering down beneath Meet the Parents like a child. Luckily
I remembered to take out my camera phone, but he ran up to the counter
and rented The Out-of-Towners (remake) faster than I had ever
seen anyone rent a movie. Before I could snap a picture, he was nowhere
to be seen.
Tell me: have
there been similar sightings of the Jersey Devil, in which people have
described it as looking nothing like Bob Saget? Does the Jersey Devil
rent horror movies? I must know! I am going to hunt this creature down,
even if it takes me the rest of my life. But it would help to have
information from a credible source such as yours.
Sincerely,

Kevin Dickinson |
