Cursed trinkets, missing time and generational UFO contact — Part One

In this episode I’m joined by Sidney, a bloke whose life has been shadowed by the unexplained. From cursed objects and orbs darting through the night to lights vanishing on lonely highways, figures in mirrors, phones ringing from nowhere and even a chilling mimic under his bed as a kid. His family line is no stranger either — with UFO encounters stretching back generations and a bushman’s story of coming face to face with a Yowie.

This is part one of Sidney’s journey through paranormal chaos and malevolent forces that seem to follow him through life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

An enormous pair of glowing yellow eyes lurking in the darkness, mysterious little hairy beings stalking teenagers through the bush, and not one, but TWO haunted childhood homes. In this episode of Cliffhanger, I'm joined by my younger brother Ayden, who finally shares his firsthand account of a bizarre series of encounters in Narrawallee Creek Reserve on the NSW South Coast. From a terrifying encounter with a massive, unidentified creature to strange gifts, flying rocks, mimicked bird calls and possible Junjudee activity, there's plenty to unpack. Ayden also shares some more recent experiences in a different stretch of bush, involving mysterious wood knocks and potential gift giving, before we reminisce about growing up in two incredibly haunted houses. Just what was lurking in the bush that night, and what was following these teenagers through the forest? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trent joins me from Queensland to share a lifetime of experiences that blur the line between life, death and whatever might exist in between. After being trapped beneath the surf and reaching the point where he believed he was going to die, Trent experienced something profound. An overwhelming sense of peace, followed by what he describes as leaving his body and witnessing events unfolding from above, before suddenly finding himself back underwater fighting his way to the surface. But that’s only one chapter of his story. We dive into eerie encounters with shadow people, including figures witnessed by multiple members of his family and some unsettling experiences that seem to have followed the family across generations. Trent also shares the incredible connection he believes he still has with his late grandfather. From being inexplicably drawn directly to his grave, to receiving what seemed like a warning moments before a problem aboard a flight. Near death, out of body experiences, shadow people and a bond with a loved one that may have continued long after his passing. This one goes deep. Hosted on Acast.

Australia’s most infamous Yowie hotspot takes centre stage in Part Two. Rod shares years of remarkable Yowie encounters from the legendary Pilliga, along with experiences from Sundown National Park and a private property near the Queensland–NSW border. From a face to face sighting of a juvenile Yowie he describes as strikingly chimpanzee like, to catching a glimpse of a massive pair of powerful orange legs disappearing through the bush, Rod recounts the moments that convinced him these elusive creatures are very real. We also explore reports of an unsettling encounter involving a Yowie grabbing Rod's mate in his swag during the night, along with the behaviours, habitats and patterns Rod has documented over years of investigating these mysterious beings.
