Part 2 of Dean’s story, the focus shifts from the demonic and dimensional to the skies above and the shadows of Australia’s Defence history. Dean recounts chilling UFO sightings and moments of possible extraterrestrial contact that left him questioning what really shares our airspace. But the strangeness doesn’t end there. As a veteran, Dean also opens up about the ghostly presences that haunt Australian Defence bases and warships.

If you’re fascinated by UFOs, ET encounters, and the paranormal world that clings to Australia’s military past, Part 2 delivers it.

Part 2 of a two-part interview, where I sit down with Bretto — a bloke whose life has been anything but normal. Raised in witchcraft, initiated into esoteric arts, and tangled up with ancient spirits, ghosts, yowie, and cryptid encounters, his story is a wild ride through Australia’s paranormal underbelly.

We talk summoning rituals in the bush, haunted houses, Yowie encounters in Wee Jasper and the North coast of NSW, and the terrifying moment he made contact with a horned entity straight out of the old world. There’s even past life memories, spirit clearings, and strange bush energies that defy explanation.

This is part 2 so make sure you listen to part 1 first.

If you’re into witchcraft, cryptids, ghosts, or ancient forces that lurk just beyond the veil — you’re in the right place.

Welcome to Cliffhanger: Paranormal & Cryptid Encounters.

Stay sharp. Trust your instincts. And remember — if the bush goes quiet, you’re not alone.

Cliffhanger paranormal and cryptid encounters episode 3: I was grabbed by something deep in the Australian bush—and I don’t say that lightly. In this massive deep dive, we explore everything Yowie (or Dooligah): from ancient Aboriginal lore passed through generations to modern-day sightings that chill you to the bone. This episode unpacks the legend, the evidence, and the eerie overlap between folklore and lived experience.

You’ll hear three terrifying stories from my own encounters, each more unsettling than the last—footsteps in the dark, whispering voices, and finally… physical contact. Whether you’re a sceptic or a believer, this one’s for anyone who’s ever felt watched in the wild.

Episode 2: The Gift (or Curse)

This episode dives deep into the roots of my connection to the strange and unexplained — tracing the bloodline back to where it all began. I sit down with my mum to explore the gift she unknowingly passed on to me… and that I now see taking shape in my own son.

You’ll hear personal stories of ghostly encounters both gentle and sinister, including visitations from the unknown, psychic warnings, and a Yowie tale that might make you second-guess the bush track behind your house. And in true paranormal fashion, a few tech gremlins show up right on cue.

If you’ve ever felt like the veil was thinner for certain people… this one’s for you.
