What would you do if the bush itself came alive to save your life?

In this gripping episode of Cliffhanger Paranormal and Cryptid Encounters, Alana from the NSW north coast shares the night she was saved by massive elemental beings — ancient guardians of the Australian bush. These towering, human-shaped entities of bark, moss, sticks and earth stepped out of the treeline and guided her to safety when her life was genuinely at risk.

But her connection to the spiritual world goes even deeper.

Alana has lived her whole life with mediumship abilities, often visited by the spirit of country in the form of snake visions that comfort her, warn her, and guide her. She’s had unsettling experiences inside haunted establishments, witnessed eerie signs about people’s health before they happened, and navigated a lifetime of spirit activity most people never see.

We also touch on my own recent experiences — including mimic phenomena, where something has tried imitating my appearance....... kind of. Whatever it is, it’s strange, unsettling, and very recent.

This episode dives into the ancient side of Australian high-strangeness — guardians of the land, spiritual protectors, visions, warnings, and the unexplained things that move through the bush when no one else is watching.

If you’re into elemental beings, spirit guardians, mediumship, haunted places, or mimic encounters… this one’s right up your alley.

Strap in, legends. The bush came alive… and the spirits stepped forward.

Fresh off the heels of last week’s episode with John, we’re diving straight back into the strange energy lurking around Ringwood East. If you haven’t heard that one yet, go and check it out first — because this episode with his brother Rob picks up the thread and takes it into much darker, much stranger territory.

Rob was there the night something heavy, bipedal, and absolutely not human stomped around their campsite… but what happened afterwards is what really raises eyebrows. Since that night, Rob has dealt with footsteps and movement inside his own home — clear as day, but with nothing visible there. Was it connected to the Yowie encounter? No one can say for sure, but the timing is hard to ignore.

Out in the bush, Rob has been chased by orbs of light, confronted by a lone figure that looked human until it didn’t, and experienced moments that feel like something out there is wearing a disguise — something that watches, imitates, and tests people who wander too far in.

If John’s encounter opened the door to the mystery… Rob’s experiences kick it wide open.

This is one you won’t want to miss.

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.
