Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 268 Bunyips and Water Beasts with Tony Healy

Dec 25, 2023, 04:00 AM

On this episode, we welcome Tony Healy back to look into some unusual cryptid history and encounters from Australia.

From Bunyip sightings going back nearly 200 hundred years, to the strange creature or creatures lurking in the Hawksbury River, Tony gives us a crash course in two of Australia's most notable water beasts.

We also discuss two of the strangest cryptid accounts you'll hear as well as probably the most disturbing Yowie incident I've ever heard of.

A massive thank you to Tony as always for sharing his knowledge with me.
