The Jersey Devil-the Legend Lives Skip Rose

Sitting in the epicenter of our nations most densely populated region is a million square acre wilderness area known as the Pine Barrens. Composed of cedar rivers, sand roads, scrub oak and pine trees, this remote region of South Jersey is said to be the ancestral home of The Jersey Devil, an enduring creature from New Jersey folklore. In the year 1735, as legend has it, just after being born a normal baby boy, the thirteenth child of Mother Leeds transformed into a beastlike creature. Soon to be a major motion picture, designed as a science fiction/thriller, New Jersey's most famous legend comes alive in the 21st century. The dual core of the story exposes the life of a tormented creature (The Jersey Devil) who gets caught between two worlds and deals with the situation in his own unique way, and an old man whose belief in this beast has led him on a seventy year quest of faith, hope, and redemption.
