==Gameplay==
 
Head to New Jersey. Use the wire cutters to open the trash bin and search inside for the 'tablet' (assumed to be a toilet door). Go inside the toilet and your character will attach the tablet to the one already inside. The message tells you how to ride through the forest. Ths is optional, but above the toilet, you'll find the woman with the hang glider you also helped earlier on. You can talk to her and cut her down with the shears, but again, this is optional. Take the motorcycle outside the toilet. Follow the instructions, right, left, left, right, right, right, left, left ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTION WHERE THE MOTORCYCLE IS GOING. In the seemingly empty clearing, click the look around button. If your lantern is lit, you'll see the creepy house. If not, light the lantern now. Inside the creepy house, go up to the second level, where you hear a banging from the attic. Push the dresser to the far left and use it to jump up to the ladder going to the attic. In the attic, the banging is coming from a barrel. It was a raccoon! Go to the right of the barrel and pick up the grappling hook. When you go down, the Jersey Devil is sighted in the window! (People say that it gave them nightmares!). It disappears outside. When you go out of the house, the Jersey Devil is seen again, but this time it flies up to a strange nest in a tree, which seems to have egg fragments in it, and disappears into the night. Use the grappling hook to reach the nest and take an egg piece. Then go back to the motorcycle. To go back to the start quickly, simply click the back to start button. Mews asks you to take another DNA sample, and it proves the Jersey Devil's existence.
