Episode 40: This week, we hit the road to New Jersey—but we’re not chasing diners, we’re hunting the Jersey Devil. From the haunted forests of the Pine Barrens to legendary hotspots like Leeds Point, we explore the Devil’s myth, origin stories, and chilling sightings. Along the way, we gather firsthand evidence, witness haunted mansions, and even get a visit from the beast itself. 👀 📍 Our stops include: Point Breeze, the former estate of Joseph Bonaparte (yes, Napoleon’s brother), where he reportedly saw the Jersey Devil during a hunting trip in Bordentown The eerie Batsto Village, loaded with sightings and ghostly legends The roadside oddity-filled Jersey Devil Corner in Hammonton (we even ran into a very friendly Bigfoot!) Classic stomping grounds like the Collins Site, Mother Leeds Site, and Leeds Point Community Church Graveyard Of course, no cryptid crawl is complete without some spirits and slices—we dropped into J.D.’s Pub and Grill and grabbed pizza near Leeds Point Road. 👻🍕 Special thanks to Jersey Devil Corner for the tips and to our friend Kerri, whose handmade devilish creations (sold at the Jersey Devil Fable Fest in Asbury Park) are legendary! 📚 Sources: The Greatest Mysteries of the Unexplained – Doncaster & Holland (2021) Unsolved Enigmas – Pilger & Moynihan (2019) Weird N.J. #62 (May–Oct 2024) Spooky Pennsylvania – S.E.

In this episode of Slice of the Paranormal, we head to Easton, Pennsylvania in search of a local legend: a cannibalistic Goblin Monk—rumored to be a murderous holy man whose twisted creed led him to a noose... and a monstrous transformation.

Our strange journey takes us to:
🪦 Easton Cemetery, home of the mysterious White Lady ghost
📚 Easton Public Library, possibly built over a graveyard, and where we unexpectedly find the grave of a woman known as “Mammy”—believed by some to be the White Lady herself
🍕 Nicolosi’s Pizzeria, a horror-themed pizza shop serving up slices with a side of spook

Is the library really haunted? Does a goblin stalk the cemetery at night? And why is Mammy buried beneath books?

Join us as we explore Easton’s haunted past, local ghost stories, and one of the most bizarre legends in Pennsylvania folklore.
