Summary/Description: I drove out of Melbourne alone and at dusk tired I pulled into quiet caravan park. in creek valley coming down from Otways to the Great Ocean Rd coast. I chose it because it looked less touristy and crowded. Cant remember name but may recall if I saw detailed map. Weirdly, the guy didn’t seem to want me to stay there….would think he’d be glad of business, only one other family there.I was scared to drive the dangerous road at night so I pleaded just one night and out early, and he grudgingly gave me caravan closest to front entrance.The other odd thing was that family with young children disappeared in the afternoon, though I didn’t see any other van lights on or hear sound or smell cooking. I thought oh maybe they were just day visitors, but locked my door because it seemed odd. My van was odd too, old fashioned, tidy but like it hadn’t been stepped into for a year. Like a film set van.
The window at back of van facing back into valley was permanently blocked. I slept under full width front window, millions of stars out of the big city, framed between the valley sides, narrow valley with flat grass and only a handful of vans. All empty except mine apparently. The width of the valley opening to the sky was maybe a footy oval diameter…
In the middle of the deathly quiet night, a very low humming vibration woke me, I could feel it in my stomach. It got more and more intense and strong. I have never heard anything like it and was terrified. At its loudest point the windows were vibrating and I felt it in my whole body. I then saw out the window an immense very neat straight edged black shape blocking out the stars completely over entire width of valley, travelling slowly over my van, I was literally frozen with terror, it passed over and straight out to sea, taking the vibration with it. My mind still cant comprehend how gigantic it was, or what it was. I was actually really afraid I wouldn’t be let leave after that, but in the morning put on cheery face and paid. Driven by curiosity as I left I asked if anyone heard anything, No he said cutting me off and turned away. Most unfriendly man I thought, and what the hell did I see?!
