An Introduction to Weird NJ
Weird NJ: Your Travel Guide to New Jersey’s Local Legends and Best-Kept Secrets is a magazine that takes the reader to places you won’t find on any tourist maps. Weird NJ publishers Mark Sceurman and Mark Moran travel the backroads of the Garden State in search of unwritten history and modern folklore. They seek out places that many would consider to be strange, odd or unique, then compile stories of what they’ve found in their magazine, which they publish twice a year.
