NEKRO138 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I have quite a bit of info about Springheeled Jack, but nothing from the Sheffield area. Mostly Lincolnshire, London and one occurance in Wales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee steer Posted July 22, 2008 Author Share Posted July 22, 2008 Message from simon from P-R NOTE THE CLAWS, AND IMPENETRABLE SKIN. SPRING HEELED JACK has been described with claws and a bullet proof skin from when many took shots at it including the british army at ALDERSHOT barracks in 1877 (although they may have been blanks) Both creatures are mythical with similarities to other myths in other countries. I am not suggesting they are the same thing just similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrishall Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Similar to UFO reports, obviously a load of old tosh, airline pilots, military pilots, radar operators, policemen, astronauts etc etc, they must surely all be hallucinating?? Widespread eye witnesses? totally unreliable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
