That's Not My UncleAt just 16 years old, Anthony from Louisiana, went hunting with his uncle and a friend on a secluded 200-acre property they had permission to hunt. Vehicles weren’t allowed, so everything had to be done on foot.

Something was Pacing Us Deep in the Arkansas wilderness, Amanda and Phillip from Offbeat Paranormal set out with their investigation team in search of answers—but what they experienced left them questioning everything they thought they knew. Throughout the weekend, the group was seemingly shadowed by something massive. They heard deep growls, eerie laughter echoing through the forest, thunderous stomps, and the unmistakable sound of heavy branches being thrown, all while signs suggested something was pacing them just beyond the tree line.One of the most intriguing moments came when the team discovered six carefully placed stones arranged on a large, flat rock—one for each member of their investigation party. The following morning, after one person had left camp, the remaining investigators awoke to find five stones neatly placed at the head of their tent overnight—again, one stone for each person still there. Was it an incredible coincidence, a deliberate message, or evidence that something intelligent had been quietly observing the group and keeping count of every member?Join Dan "Dano" Hamilton as Amanda and Phillip recount this unforgettable Arkansas expedition and reveal even more strange encounters from the same weekend, including unexplained activity that continued long after the sun went down.

The Gift Outside the FenceWhat would you do if something unknown kept visiting your property... but never allowed itself to be seen?In this fascinating episode of The Cryptid Podcast, Dano sits down with Sarah Bignell from Australia to discuss a lifetime of extraordinary experiences connected to one of the world's most mysterious cryptids—the Australian Yowie.Unlike many eyewitness accounts, Sarah's encounters aren't based on seeing a Yowie standing in the open. Instead, they involve a series of strange events, unexplained interactions, and intelligent behavior that suggest something powerful has been watching from the bush just beyond the boundaries of her ranch.Sarah shares multiple encounters that have convinced her the Yowie is very real, including unusual activity around her property, signs of a presence that seemed aware of her movements, and one shocking discovery that left her questioning everything.Then comes the encounter that changed everything...One day, just outside her ranch gate, Sarah discovered what she believes was a deliberate gift left behind by the Yowie.Was it a warning?A message?Or an attempt at communication from something that has been observing her for years?Only on The Cryptid Podcast.
