## Resource

Two years ago at Swan View Tunnel in Western Australia, Em came face to face with something she still struggles to talk about. What started as a casual night exploring one of WA’s most haunted locations turned into something far darker. Standing in the tunnel with a torch in hand, she saw a tall, unnatural figure caught directly in the beam of light. Thin. Lurking. Rake like in appearance. Not a shadow. Not a trick of the eye. Something physical. The dread that followed was overwhelming. Her body went heavy. Her knees buckled. She could barely breathe. Even now, recalling it makes her hair stand up. In this episode, Em shares the full encounter in detail, along with the strange paranormal experiences that led up to that night. From childhood spiritual sensitivity to shadow figures and moving objects, this story builds toward something that doesn’t feel human at all. This one is intense. Listener discretion advised. Em was kind enough to draw what she saw that night. If you want to see her sketch of the rake like entity, head over to the Cliffhanger Facebook group. Hosted on Acast.
