Shay from Western Australia calls in with a story about a spirit said to follow the men in his family, generation after generation, from boyhood until it decides they've become men. Taps on windows, voices claiming the room, and a moment where his little brother swore he saw someone standing in a doorway that Shay insists was empty the whole time built toward one terrifying night, his younger brother waking unable to breathe, a spider-like hand covering his face. Their father brought in an elder to smoke the house and ask whatever it was to leave. It worked. (Follow him on IG @cee.dub23 for more creative and funny content.)
Cass from Northwestern New South Wales calls in about the Min Min lights, a phenomenon he'd been warned about his whole life without fully believing it. Driving through the mountains at night, his mother suddenly demanded they pull over, moments before a bright red light appeared floating beneath the rearview mirror and his brother's car door fell open mid-drive. Researcher Dr. Curtis Roman, a Larrakia man from Darwin, has documented that Indigenous people from the bush are rarely frightened by these lights, unlike those from urban areas, and many sightings are reported near water, moving with a serpentine motion some connect to the Rainbow Serpent.
Lisa herself shares several stories from a period living in a remote rainforest community, including encounters with a spirit woman believed to have been murdered during the Australian gold rush, said to scream in men's ears and push them from a nearby waterfall in an act of ongoing revenge. She describes seeing a woman with long blonde hair riding in a friend's truck, only for the friend to later insist he'd been driving alone the entire time, along with nights spent listening to what sounded like a corroboree carrying through the bush, and a car that stalled mid-crossing in a rising river before starting again at the exact moment it mattered most.
Paul from the Maningrida region calls in about a night his family saw figures standing on the back of his truck that he insists were never there, followed by a car that turned itself on and began honking with no one inside, and a presence he believes followed him all the way to Darwin.
And Tim, whose mob comes from the Armidale and Kempsey area, closes the episode with two stories, a night at Merrick Dam when he heard massive bipedal footsteps moving through the grass toward him in the dark, and a broad daylight encounter years later with what he believes was a yowie, a seven to eight foot tall, broad-shouldered, gray-haired creature that mimicked his and his son's footsteps before stepping behind a tree and vanishing without a trace, leaving no tracks behind.
