There’s a similar ghost legend along Wilfred Barrett Drive to Norah Head where a ghost hitchhiker that’s a young girl stops you, gets in and then disappears!! Been many times to the Picton mushroom tunnel at night. It’s very eerie but no ghosts. The shapes people see are the puddles of water on the ground reflected by the tunnel entry. The great thing is though that to feel that sensation of total darkness and no sound makes it feel really spooky. More scared of weird people than ghosts.
I’ve seen a few big cats in the bush in my younger years when I was a soldier, we saw one in bush around Mt Victoria 1987 that never knew we were there we were silent and it position using camouflage and concealment the cat was never in any danger but after around 90 seconds picked up our scent and was gone. It was too big and tactical to be a domestic cat but seemed too small for a “big cat”3 options 1/ A multi generational feral cat who has evolved through nature 2/ A young early juvenile “big cat” 3/ Someone slipped Victoria mushrooms into our brews without our knowledge.
A family friend owns the Rocklands Lodge in Victoria. The lodge was used by the US Air Force (to teach the Australian pilots how to land on the water) there is a local guy that stopped in one time and mentioned to the owner that they indeed had panthers and let them go from that very spot! They were advised to put them down, but they were very attached to them so instead let them go when the US went back home. There are so many interesting stories from the locals up there about sightings of black panthers. Our friend has a picture of a huge paw print at his letter box! Something big will drag dead Roos and takes their head off from the shoulders and sometimes they find sheep high up in the trees. There’s even farmers that say they have spotted Tasmanian tigers in the same region!
That's so interesting! Thanks for stopping by and sharing this info! Out of all the urban legends mentioned I think this one is probably the most substantial and if not the most believable.
I once had a theory that Jack the Ripper was an Australian cricketer, considering the first test was played on the 16th July of that year, and the first murders were committed in August of that year, no-one would ever have guessed it and no one has ever suggested this as a possibility, there were also 3 players in the touring squad named Jack.
Interesting theory! Although you didn't mention where the tests were played? I'm assuming in UK? Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts on this. Much appreciated
It's not a hard sell to believe a shy, nocturnal creature could be living in the bushland of Tasmania without us knowing. But I'm still thinking feral cats for the panther sightings; they get surprisingly big and humans are demonstrably terrible at judging the size of moving things.
It has an eerie atmosphere because the film _Picnic at Hanging Rock_ is so ingrained in the Australian psyche, combined with Aboriginal "Dream Time" stories about the area, have convinced people to it was actually a true story. When I visted as a kid, they even had plaques in various locations where the girls disappeared (in the movie) like it had actually happened. 😆 My mother is one of those types who think the rocks hold some power, and I distinctly remember her saying after we visited that _"the rocks spoke to her and told her what to do",_ which was apparently become an alcoholic, abuse her children, and abandon her family. 🙄 But they don't have any special powers. They don't speak to people, and they don't make underage school girls on a picnic disappear. They are just rocks. Only rocks. Some big rocks, and some smaller rocks. One even appears to be hanging. But they're still just rocks.
I’ve had a face to face encounter with the Panther at Mt Victoria just above Lithgow. My flat mates and I were rallying an old Commodore up the fire trails in the bush at night. We got the tyre stuck in a ditch on the side of the track. We all jumped out to lift the car up out of the ditch and on the embankment there was a deep guttural growl, we turned to look and there were 2 large red eyes and it continued growling. We screamed and got back in the car, debated for an eternity about who or how we’d get the car out of the ditch. Eventually we went on the count of 3 and rushed out and lifted the car clear, didn’t hear or see the panther again. I know there is nothing else it could have been, there’s just nothing out there that big let alone make a sound like that.
Just come across your channel and subscribed, I've spent plenty of time in the Victorian bush and I'm yet to see or hear a Yowie!...but I've seen a panther like cat a bob cat and what seemed to be a Thylacine...and no drugs or booze involved!!.
Welcome along to the Shadow Matter Trevor! Thanks for subscribing and glad you enjoyed the video. That's really interesting about the panther or bobcat you saw. I definitely think there's some substance to all the reports on this
this is your best video yet......i really found the casino story interesting.....i have never herd of that Jack the ripper suspect before and how the black panthers ended up in Australia makes sense. thank u for the content
Thanks Chris! Glad you liked it. I've always wanted to make a video like this and yeah I had never heard of some of these urban legends before either. I thought the Jack the Ripper suspect case was really intriguing too. Cheers for the awesome comment mate!
This was Fantastic 😁 Loved it, hope you can come up with more. I loved Picnic at Hanging Rock, then I grew up and found out it wasn’t true. I was so disappointed, thinking it really happened made it so much more interesting. I had heard of Fredrick Deeming before and it sounds plausible but, so do so many others. I believe Jack the Ripper will never be solved now. Thanks Shadow. ❤️ Jodie
Hey Jodie! Thanks for stopping by again and glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah I always thought it (picnic at Hanging rock) was real until a few years ago... Oh well, it's a good yarn. Thanks again
Wow, didn’t know about the Jack the Ripper legend. I’ll the years I drove up and down the Wakehurst Parkway in the middle of the night and never saw anything, what a bummer.
The Grampians have also had sightings as well,,I remember my grandmother going to work at the cafe in the Grampians and seeing something big on four legs and black and she said it was to big to be a dog.
Big cats are in Australia and I don't care what anyone thinks because I seen one just out the back of goulburn NSW but this cat wasn't black looked like American mountain lion
There is definitely a morgue under the casino, an ambulance comes to collect the corpse after 11pm Monday through Thursday via the Whiteman street loading dock

@@smookie2351 Oh some dodgy secret stuff goes on there, had a friend who was an escort who had several clients who stayed there and she got to see some of the backrooms of Crown, yeah they got some rooms for people who owe them and such and possibly more. My friend told me outright she couldnt confirm certain things but she did say what you may have heard is only the tip of the iceberg.
Finally got to watch this one in peace. Wow this was very interesting and I enjoyed as I do all your videos. Thank you for creating this one. Stay safe
Someone who has lived in Melbourne for 23 years i can definitely see there being a morgue under crown! Some evil evil stuff in those tunnels, those and the tunnels under Adelaide
I've seen one of those big cats in the Otway's. There have been lots of sightings there, too. This one was on the shoulder of the road eating roadkill. It was the size of a Labrador and ran off when it saw my car.
Here's my experience of a possible Yowie (Bigfoot)... I was house hunting in Qld, Australia one day, I drove to the outskirts of Brisbane, Qld to look at an A Frame house for rent, I parked my car, went inside and it was perfect! The bedroom upstairs overlooked the lounge area, I loved it. I then noticed a wooden double door leading to the backyard, it looked like it had been forcibly broken into many, many times. I thought, a few deadbolts could fix that problem even though I thought it was suspicious. I then proceeded outside and stood between the house and the shed, I saw a lovely dam up the back of the property just in front of the Greenbanks Army grounds which was all bush. I'm thinking this seems like a great place to live and then, the hairs stood up on the back of my neck like never before as I heard this loud, deep growl/roar like sound, now I grew up watching all the animal shows from around the world, I've heard Tasmanian Devil sounds, Barn Owls that sound like banshees but that deep growl/roar sound scared the crap out of me. I ran to the car and got the hell out of there. Later that day, I told the story to my partner but didn't believe me, my partner insisted on going and having a look so we had a friend drive us out towards the road where this house was, I kept saying, we shouldn't be going near that place, to be honest, I have no idea why I went along knowing what happened earlier that day. At the turn off to this road was a servo and as I was begging and pleading for our friend to turn around, the lights went out just as we got to the servo so we pulled in and stopped the car. I said to my partner, see, this is a sign to not go near that house, there's something evil out there that probably wants to have us as a main course, meanwhile our friend is trying to get the lights going but nothing. After some discussion, they both agreed to turn around and go home. I said ok GREAT! Now see if the lights will work one more time before we have to get help from another friend. The lights came on like there was never a problem, that's when they both freaked out and finally believed my story. Never go near the Greenbanks Army area, that thing does not want to play. What was it? Not sure but it sounded very large
If you ever do a part 2 for this, which you definitely should because this was great. Have a look into the Black Bobs of Tasmania. I find that story equal parts fascinating and horrifying.
Thanks PG! Glad to see you back here again in the comments section. That sounds like a great story And yeah I plan on making another video like this Thanks for the awesome comment
I think the Min Min light would also make for a great video. Plus various ghost stories around the country. Some fascinating tie-ins with actually provable Aussie history there. Not to mention the Drop bears! 😀
@@ShadowMatterYTit would be awesome if you could do a video on Jenny Dixon in NSW, I’ve spoken to many taxi drivers and NRMA workers that have had at least one ghostly encounter and most that I spoke to were non-believers
urban legends are so interesting to hear about. a lot of them have such deeper meaning and lessons behind them than just a normal scary story. About keen and tarot etc. magic has evil origins and i have experienced/heard some dark stories about things like that
There is an unlit road in Johannesburg, near Sandringham and Silvamont, called Club Street. The road is in a steep dip just before Modderfontein Road. It has long been rumored that there is a ghost of a young blonde girl who died of bubonic plague haunting the dip. There is, or was, an isolated cemetery just off Club Street containing the remains of people who died of infectious diseases, including bubonic plague. I have been to the cemetery at night myself with the now defunct Lombardy East Scout troop back on the 1980s. That was scary. I have never seen a ghost there, though myself in my 54 years. Still, I have avoided that road when traveling alone at night.
I've been to Kalkajaka (Black Mountain) and it does give a really quite eerie vibe. I felt like going past the small barrier would have been a huge mistake
I mean with over 500 sightings in 20 years and even a govt Dept investigating it... There's definitely something out there. Thanks for stopping by and sharing this
Been to crown casino and stayed there once, and had a fun time, as far as I’m aware I’m sure the toilet walls don’t move. Although I haven’t been in there often. Also realistically as someone else has pointed out, the police would have to identify any bodies and would take them away not leave them to go into the morgue
Possible that they got big cats over in Oz coz they got them over here in the UK from a woman who owned them privately in the 70s and then it became illegal to own them so she released them and they apparently bred and over the Dartmoor hills there's been spottings and reported animals been killed ever since 😉
Not gonna lie mate, love your channel but that sponsor seems shady as fuck, $1.99 per minute, and that’s a saving? I get you need to make money but that just seems dodgy as fuck bro.
@@ShadowMatterYT cheers mate, it’s great having an Aussie based crime show. Just be careful of who you choose to accept as sponsors, some very dodgy organisations advertising through RUclips.
Panthers are no myth. They are very very real & you have only just touched on the tip.of the iceberg as far as sightings go. I saw one as a teenager riding my pushy through bushland behind our home at Staffordshire Reef (Victoria) & I have seen one while fishing a river just outside of Dwellingup in Western Australia. I'm a very experienced bushman & hunter. Nothing else in this country gets that big & moves like that.
In regard to the big black cats l actually saw one once....l was living in a very small town called Navarre...went out the back door looked across the paddocks and saw a huge black cat in the distance...people can say whatever they like...but l know what l saw....
My only comment is that I wont ever have to worry about the Crown Casino's morgue since I categorically refuse to set foot in Crown Casino and its environs. The Deeming Theory's a good one, though.
I have to weigh in, I have been a Yowie, never seen one, and it is a long story but short is video footage of me wearing a roo skin with full beard long hair was taken on a crappy phone in 2007, my friend joked i looked like a yowie posted to facebook as a joke, deleted it about a week later because it went mental. There are no Tigers left, having said that for $5000 + expenses i can get you close enough to get a picture of one. Not that i am that unscrupulous but i did meet a man who sold a lot of tours and he told me how to do it, shhhhh big secret. not. as for big cats i have lived through small town curfews on kids due to cat attacks on stock, my neighbours dog (blue healer on a chain) was killed by a cat, another long story but he witnessed the killing and 2 weeks later shot it and registered it with the CSIRO who came out and picked up his frozen 17kgm specimen. Far above the average 4/5kgm, it was motley ginger.
Just had to add as well that hanging rock is a very spiritual place. It has something of an indiginous feel to the place more than any white spirituality. Melbournes Vic Market was built on a cemetery and I myself had seen a young boy who was out of his time watching me as I looked through some old pennys in a stall. 😊👍
I'd prefer to live a life where I always have an extra dribble after I wee before I get my persona read from some kind of tarrot regurgitation. I'm also trying to be funny and want to get my palm read.

Some hopefully constructive criticism regarding one tiny aspect of your videos is the amount of screen time taken up by the image sources that you compile. Don't be afraid to give the static images you compile some fractions of seconds (or even full seconds) longer, at the expense of the screen time given to the stock animation etc. You clearly spend quite some time finding and selecting these different images for use, possibly more time than the video scripts even take to research and write, and it's a shame that they flash by so quickly sometimes. It also gives the videos a "floatier" mood when the animated segments are interspersed with the brief glimpses of static images; the eye will try to adjust on a focal point to perceive information only to have that removed and replaced by multiple moving points of focus... it's a personal preference but I feel like the "floaty mood" doesn't do justice to the work put in by some creators.
The animation/b-roll type stuff is visually intriguing (and specifically in your videos, usually quite spectacular to watch and pleasing in the consistency of the channel aesthetic - it's fun stuff) and give a good hook to grab attention but it's not the actual strongest element of your work *once that attention has been obtained* . If people do watch one of your videos and make it even a quarter of the way through, then by that time you know that they are probably around for the rest and won't be turned off in boredom just because there hasn't been anything moving on screen for a second or two, especially since the images you source are usually very well selected.

After some discussion, they both agreed to turn around and go home. I said ok GREAT! Now see if the lights will work one more time before we have to get help from another friend.
The lights came on like there was never a problem, that's when they both freaked out and finally believed my story.
Never go near the Greenbanks Army area, that thing does not want to play. What was it? Not sure but it sounded very large

@@ShadowMatterYTit would be awesome if you could do a video on Jenny Dixon in NSW, I’ve spoken to many taxi drivers and NRMA workers that have had at least one ghostly encounter and most that I spoke to were non-believers
Keep em coming bro.
Thanks mate! Will do
@@ShadowMatterYT ♥️
urban legends are so interesting to hear about. a lot of them have such deeper meaning and lessons behind them than just a normal scary story. About keen and tarot etc. magic has evil origins and i have experienced/heard some dark stories about things like that
There is an unlit road in Johannesburg, near Sandringham and Silvamont, called Club Street.
The road is in a steep dip just before Modderfontein Road.
It has long been rumored that there is a ghost of a young blonde girl who died of bubonic plague haunting the dip.
There is, or was, an isolated cemetery just off Club Street containing the remains of people who died of infectious diseases, including bubonic plague.
I have been to the cemetery at night myself with the now defunct Lombardy East Scout troop back on the 1980s.
That was scary.
I have never seen a ghost there, though myself in my 54 years.
Still, I have avoided that road when traveling alone at night.
Pretty eerie stuff. Thanks for stopping by and sharing this
@@ShadowMatterYT Thanks for a great channel. Very informative and entertaining.
I've been to Kalkajaka (Black Mountain) and it does give a really quite eerie vibe. I felt like going past the small barrier would have been a huge mistake
Thanks for stopping by and sharing this! Much appreciated
Seen a big cat years ago, hunting dog ran from it! Lucky we had motorbikes that day
I mean with over 500 sightings in 20 years and even a govt Dept investigating it... There's definitely something out there.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing this
Video at 12:21 is from the movie The Hunter (2011) with Willem Dafoe
Ah I knew I'd seen it somewhere before. Thanks for pointing that out
When an Aussie can't pronounce Warringah correctly you know you have an AI voice.
He I live there and you forgot to drop bears
Haha yeah you're right I did actually intentionally leave off this list... Didn't want the stupid comments to pile up. Thanks for stopping by
There's a town 100 klms East of Melbourne, Victoria called Drouin.
No sure which spelling was used in his alias.
Same way spelled. Thanks for stopping by
i think you d have to be a bit silly to think that men can say the tiger is extinct in a area like Tasmania
Been to crown casino and stayed there once, and had a fun time, as far as I’m aware I’m sure the toilet walls don’t move. Although I haven’t been in there often. Also realistically as someone else has pointed out, the police would have to identify any bodies and would take them away not leave them to go into the morgue
Great insight! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!
Possible that they got big cats over in Oz coz they got them over here in the UK from a woman who owned them privately in the 70s and then it became illegal to own them so she released them and they apparently bred and over the Dartmoor hills there's been spottings and reported animals been killed ever since 😉
I think I've heard of that before! Thanks for sharing
I worked at the Crown Cassio and we all have to sign a none disclosure
Not gonna lie mate, love your channel but that sponsor seems shady as fuck, $1.99 per minute, and that’s a saving? I get you need to make money but that just seems dodgy as fuck bro.
Hey, thanks for your honesty, much appreciated and glad you're enjoying the content. I'll take this feedback to them
@@ShadowMatterYT cheers mate, it’s great having an Aussie based crime show. Just be careful of who you choose to accept as sponsors, some very dodgy organisations advertising through RUclips.
Wow the story of jack is wild 😮
I always wonder why the Blue Hole and Chinamen's Lane are never mentioned in these videos regarding urban legends
I’ve heard about the toilets at the crown having secret walls that open behind the toilets.
Panthers are no myth. They are very very real & you have only just touched on the tip.of the iceberg as far as sightings go. I saw one as a teenager riding my pushy through bushland behind our home at Staffordshire Reef (Victoria) & I have seen one while fishing a river just outside of Dwellingup in Western Australia. I'm a very experienced bushman & hunter. Nothing else in this country gets that big & moves like that.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your experience. I mean if the government is investigating it... Then there must be something substantial there.
Ain’t no way the Tasmanian tiger is in New Zealand 😂
The person who reported it must’ve been absolutely insane
Possibly haha. I remember on a trip to Hanmer Springs in New Zealand when I was a kid and they were talking about it then.
@@ShadowMatterYT I can only imagine lol
Probably just trying to lure more tourists in
@@wattiespotatoes6401 haha yeah always a factor
Well there are possums there and camels and cane toads in oz! Think about it! Captain cook might have taken a breeding pair there and they escaped lol
In regard to the big black cats l actually saw one once....l was living in a very small town called Navarre...went out the back door looked across the paddocks and saw a huge black cat in the distance...people can say whatever they like...but l know what l saw....
Thanks for sharing Robyn. much appreciated 👍
The black cats are there and in the bush as well , out far west NSW, and my name sake
The thylacine is still around.
There is recent footage from the Adelaide Hills
My only comment is that I wont ever have to worry about the Crown Casino's morgue since I categorically refuse to set foot in Crown Casino and its environs. The Deeming Theory's a good one, though.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts on this Rick!
I definitely think Jack could have moved to Australia or America.
I have to weigh in, I have been a Yowie, never seen one, and it is a long story but short is video footage of me wearing a roo skin with full beard long hair was taken on a crappy phone in 2007, my friend joked i looked like a yowie posted to facebook as a joke, deleted it about a week later because it went mental.
There are no Tigers left, having said that for $5000 + expenses i can get you close enough to get a picture of one. Not that i am that unscrupulous but i did meet a man who sold a lot of tours and he told me how to do it, shhhhh big secret. not.
as for big cats i have lived through small town curfews on kids due to cat attacks on stock, my neighbours dog (blue healer on a chain) was killed by a cat, another long story but he witnessed the killing and 2 weeks later shot it and registered it with the CSIRO who came out and picked up his frozen 17kgm specimen. Far above the average 4/5kgm, it was motley ginger.
I thought the Ripper moved to the US and then moved back to England ten or so years later.
Just had to add as well that hanging rock is a very spiritual place. It has something of an indiginous feel to the place more than any white spirituality. Melbournes Vic Market was built on a cemetery and I myself had seen a young boy who was out of his time watching me as I looked through some old pennys in a stall. 😊👍
Ooh very spooky 😲 I didn't know that about Vic Market 🤯!
im currently watching this video with one hand
I'd prefer to live a life where I always have an extra dribble after I wee before I get my persona read from some kind of tarrot regurgitation.
I'm also trying to be funny and want to get my palm read.
The ripper would not have done half murders.
Uh I go to crown now I am traumatized
I live in Australia….😊
Picton tunnel lol
No dude it’s a Elamsmosearus
Such a credible sponsor, what's next, established titles, kamikoto knives? 👎
I disapprove of your sponser
More. I need more.
Thanks Jason! Will keep it up
