When I was young I had cousins in New Jersey and they would jack with us any chance they got.
I was told that if you go into the bathroom and turn off the lights(pitch black), spin around 3 times while saying "New Jersey devil", then look in the mirror you would see the New Jersey devil.
It's still kinda scary to do
