Cliffhanger Paranormal and Cryptid Encounters

In this episode, I’m joined by Chloe from the Central Coast and Hunter Valley region of New South Wales.We dive into a lifetime of paranormal experiences, including spirit communication, encounters with both benevolent and malevolent entities, UFO sightings, and powerful moments of angelic intervention during times of need.Chloe also shares her experiences with what she believes were paranormal portals, describing occasions where spirits appeared to come and go through them. On two separate occasions, these encounters left her so drained and depleted that she spent the entire following day unconscious and recovering from the experience.From unexplained phenomena and spiritual encounters to questions about what may exist beyond our normal understanding of reality, this is a fascinating conversation that explores the stranger side of life and the lasting impact these experiences can have on those who live through them.

In Part 2 of my interview with Marty from rural Victoria, we go even deeper down the rabbit hole. This episode focuses heavily on the bizarre connection between Yowies, UFO activity, orb lights, and the unsettling telepathic communication Marty experienced over a number of years.We discuss the apparent distrust and tension between different entities operating around the property, including what Marty describes as more malevolent and insect-like intelligences compared to the protective “forest people” he’d previously encountered. Marty also shares details surrounding rotating lights over paddocks, strange humming sounds, and the eerie feeling that something far beyond our understanding was unfolding around him.This episode gets seriously weird and explores the possibility that the Yowie phenomenon may be connected to something much bigger than just an undiscovered primate.Buckle up legends… this one goes deep.

In this episode of Cliffhanger: Paranormal and Cryptid Encounters, I’m joined by Connor from coastal New South Wales to discuss a series of genuinely unsettling experiences involving Hat Man–type shadow entities, shadow people, and repeated UFO sightings across the Jamberoo–Kiama region.Connor shares multiple night-time encounters with tall shadow figures, including Hat Man–style entities seen moving through familiar locations. These weren’t fleeting glimpses. Some involved sustained visual contact, strange sounds in the bush that were far too heavy to be human, and an overwhelming sense that something was aware of their presence.Alongside the shadow encounters, Connor has experienced numerous UFO sightings in the same coastal areas, including close-range sightings with other witnesses present. Bright lights, objects vanishing instantly, and movements that don’t match aircraft or conventional explanations feature heavily throughout his story.What makes this episode especially interesting is the overlap. The same locations. The same time periods. Different phenomena, but a consistent pattern of high strangeness. We also discuss a moment where Connor later checked the exact location of one of his encounters on Google Earth Street View and noticed something unusual captured there in broad daylight.Important note for listeners:The image discussed in this episode is not shown publicly.

A Yowie… in the outer suburbs of Melbourne?Most people picture Yowie encounters happening deep in the ranges or hidden valleys but sometimes, they’re a lot closer to home than we’d like to think.In this episode of Cliffhanger: Paranormal and Cryptid Encounters, we hear from John a current police officer with over three decades on the force as he recalls the single most terrifying night of his life.More than forty years ago, John was just twelve years old, camping with his younger brother and cousins on a quiet property near Ringwood, Victoria. What started as a night of laughs and shenanigans quickly turned into raw, paralysing fear when something massive began circling their campsite in the dark. They never saw it but they could hear it. Heavy, deliberate footsteps… and the unmistakable sound of deep, powerful breathing from something with lungs far too big to belong to any ordinary animal.When the fear finally became too much, the kids tore off to the house terrified, shaking, and certain they’d just come face to face with something impossible.Later, it became clear this wasn’t an isolated incident. The neighbours had been losing poultry some time and looking back now, John believes this hairy lad had been making easy meals of the local animals for a while.Even all these years later, the memory still sends shivers down his spine and knowing what he knows now, John suspects he may have even felt the effects of infrasound that night.So settle in, legends this is one you won’t forget. A chilling Yowie encounter from Melbourne’s outskirts that proves… they’re not always as far away as we think. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
