Happy Fourth of July!

Nearly 60 years before Peter Benchley’s novel “Jaws,” a real man-eater lurked the waters of the New Jersey coast. A single shark was responsible attacks on five victims, killing four. One has to wonder–could it happen again?

A new, expanded second edition of a #WeirdNJ classic special issue! Bizarre Beasts is an update of the issue that we published in 2017. It sold out quickly, so don’t miss this chance to get this new version before they are gone forever.
