New Jersey Shore
If you hadn’t noticed, New Jersey is a small state. When settlers migrated to the new world, it did not look like it does today. Compare the physical makeup of Europe to the United States. The east coast of the US has the warmer Atlantic ocean, with large sand beaches stretching all the way down to Florida. Pretty sweet. New Jersey is pretty far south when you factor in the tilt of the earth. Experts describe it as a “mild, coastal climate", but locals will tell you it g
What Attracts the Jersey Devil?

The Reapers
The Reapers are a very secret society, the roots of which seem to come from members of both Christianity and the Pagan world. Documentation of events involving Reapers are almost completely nonexistent, and most of what is written is fabrication. They exist in the shades of grey that are cast when idealism meets the law of the jungle. Mankind is born into an unclean world, by their nature they are unclean. But humanity has what so many species do not, self-awareness. Peopl
