Glass House Mountain Lookout
04/2013
My best mate Daniel and I were going for a late night drive up to the look at Glass House Mountains. This is something we've done plenty of times before. It's was was about 1 O'clock in the morning. We're driving North up Old Gympie road talking and enjoying the still night.
As we approach the left turn onto Glass House Woodford Road, we come to a complete stop. We're speechless, frozen refusing to even blink. We see a large floating glowing entity. It was silver floating down Glass House Woodford Road. It was about 3 metres (9.8 ft) off the ground. Calm and Ghostly.
It was shaped like a tadpole. With what look like a metallic dark shimmering silver vale or cloth drapped on and trailing. The back two thirds waved like cloth in the wind as it almost appeared to be swimming in the air. The front was perfectly round and the size of a basket ball. The length was about 5 metres (16.4 ft)
(The front shape with cloth reminds of the dementors head from Harry Potter.)
As we watched it slowly float down the road I break the silence asking Daniel "What is it?" He replies "I don't know". It drifts over Old Gympie Road in front of us. Continuing straight into the bush bobbing and weaving between the trees.
We watched it until it disappeared into the bush. We then continued to the lookout but we didn't get out of the car this time. We barely stayed a minute before turning around and driving home.
We had no idea what we had witnessed. A ghost? A demon? An Alien? We were freaked out regardless.
Years later I retell this story to a fellow student Dee at Nursing course. She is a first nations woman from the local area. She tells me the whole area is filled with spirits and that I likely witness the spirit of the daughter/sister that was killed by her father and brothers the beings that formed the Glass House Mountains.
