THE WATER SPIRIT THAT WAITS BELOW.

In the billabongs and rivers of the Australian outback, the Bunyip stirs. Its form is ever-changing — sometimes like a massive seal, sometimes a crocodilian beast, always terrifying. Aboriginal lore describes it as a spirit of vengeance, guarding sacred waters from trespassers.

It’s said to emit blood-curdling roars, leave no tracks, and drag victims beneath still water. The Bunyip has been blamed for vanished livestock, shattered boats, and the bone-deep dread that creeps in near the waterline at dusk.

Is it a myth? A misidentified animal? Or something far older that simply doesn’t want to be seen? Whatever the answer, few who hear the Bunyip's cry ever forget it.

When the reeds go still and the water darkens — don’t look down.
