EP174 Yowies, Cryptids & Daintree Mysteries: Australia’s Real-Life Skinwalker Ranch

Now, buckle up, because today’s episode is absolutely epic! We’re kicking things off with a cool yowie sighting from way back in 1989, deep in the Wombat State Forest in Victoria. But that’s just the beginning! Next, we’re heading up to the Daintree in Far North Queensland, where our guest Tony managed a cattle farm right on the edge of the national park. What Tony and his family went through over three years is nothing short of extraordinary—think escalating dooligarl and paranormal activity, the kind of saga that brings to mind the infamous Skinwalker Ranch in the United States. Tony, his wife, and their four young kids lived peacefully for the first eight months. But after devastating floods in 2019, the property owner decided to turn the place into an eco-tourism spot, and Tony was tasked with building the first glamping site. That’s when things got, in Tony’s words, ‘insane’—and just kept getting weirder. We’re talking dooligarls, junjadees, dogman, mysterious orbs, invisible beings, and even a bizarre purple humanoid that absolutely terrified Tony’s wife. And to add another layer, the property itself has a dark past—the original Kuku Yulanji people were killed and displaced from what was their home. Whether that history played a part in what happened, who can say? But what unfolded was a mind-boggling series of strange, spooky, and sometimes downright terrifying encounters.
