Thank you, thank you! I wouldn't have thought of it if not for them reports and the prompt "foot/hoof prints on the roof!" which reminded me of said reports XD I don't remember if it was the History Channel or National Geographic, but I remember them doing a show/special on JD years and years ago. It and Moth Man are Cryptids that I am very fond of. Shameless branding the Creepypasta!

I wanted to build (pun, boo yay!) on the Megabloks later on in the story, but I ended up cutting it out for flow. I was going to end the story with Audrey thinking about how the Megabloks were a gag gift for Johnnie and how she'd never know she had Legos sitting for her under the Christmas Tree. I figured that'd be an odd thing for someone whose daughter got nabbed and is headed to what might be a pretty certain and graphic death to think about, so I cut that out. I also (very briefly) thought about making it end on a light-hearted note where the Jersey Devil kidnapped Johnnie so that it wouldn't have to spend Christmas alone, but that seemed rather contradictory to it beating the ever living crap out of Audrey earlier on.

I fixed the awkward wording that you pointed out :D

I'm glad that you found it to be a great read :)
