My group has been to this cemetery at least 6 times in the past 3 years and we have yet to see the dog with the glowing red eyes or his robed master. The worst thing that we have experienced is massive mosquito bites.

The dog and his robed master, you say?
Interesting…..can any of you tell me more
about this robed master?
Animal hauntings are very rare, you see,
and usually there is also a human ghost involved.
That, or the dog is a manifestation of a non-human
demonic entity.
The fiery red eyes would support that last theory.
And graveyards are known to attract paranormal activity,
and it appears that malignat entities relish in
the presence of grief, sorrow and decaying bodies.
As for running from that dog; that’s propably a good
idea, because especially agressively behaving entities can bring harm to a living person.
Especially if its an entity of demonic origin.
By the way, does anyone of you know wether this
graveyard has ever been guarded by dog or a man
with a dog? – that way, we could perhaps find
out the nature of this apperition.

why do ghosts of a man and dog have to haunt anyone near a graveyard?

Maria – Like Dae said, they are of demonic origin. If this is true that is.
Demons and those of the devil like you to think the dead are alive now instead of the truth that the dead are asleep waiting for the return of Jesus Christ for the resurrection. They don’t want you to think about
Judgment Day. Besides, if people think people who die go straight to heaven, hell, or some limbo place then they are not believing the Word Of God and there is more chances of people committing suicide to be with
God sooner. After all, the devil and his host hate people and would prefer there were no people walking this earth. They want you to believe their lies instead of God’s truth.

I think this an interesting haunting if it true.
The fact that this might be a demonic haunting is alone of interest. The question is, are they just guarding the dead or trying to vanquish the living?
That is a good question to think about on this matter.

Well, Maria, that’s exactly what I’ve been asking myself.
If it would be a human haunting, then the only explanation would be that at some point in history, this graveyard has been guarded by a man with a dog.
But the sheer nature of this case doesn’t make that theory sound very plausible.
And thrust me, as soon as anything starts showing up with fiery red eyes, it is pretty sure that it is some demonic entity, something that can only be a creature from hell.
As for your interesting question, Tanya,
if there’s indeed some hellish/demonic activity involved here, then it is unlikely that they are at that cemetary to guard the dead.
Like I said before, for some reason these entities are attracted to the presence of grief, sorrow, wrath, fury, hatred, malice as well as decaying corpses and such.
And many of those things can be found at a graveyard…
The intentions of these demonic entities are always
hard to determine, save for the fact that they are
always out to cause harm in whatever way they can.
And if they are not actively haunting the living,
then it is hard to say what exactly they are up to.
It could be that they are just lying in wait.
If they are up to something, they can be very patient.
…come to think of it, it could also be that they
are not so much after haunting the living…
Out of all the cases that I have seen and studied so far, I actually came across a few cases in which there was an interaction between a demonic entity and a number of human ghosts.
In that particular case, the demonic entity somehow controlled the far less powerful human entities, and through a medium, the people involved found out that those human spirits wanted to be set free from that demon. (though I strongly disadvise ANYONE from attempting to contact spirits in a place that may be
demonically haunted!)
Setting free these human souls was eventually accomplished through an exorcism,
which had appearantly succeeded, since no demonic activity had taken place there ever since.
Yet the strange thing is, no matter how agressive or malignat they may be, they always are bound in some manner.
No matter how powerful a manifestation may be,
both human ghosts and especially demons appear to be
firmly bound by some unseen barrier or law of nature,
which would also explain why the apperition at the graveyard doesn’t actually leave that terrain.
…which reminds me: although I don’t remember exactly where, the Bible does mention that “..the fallen angels were sealed/bound in hell until the day of judgement.”
If that indeed is the case, as it could very well be,
then there are only some very few circumstances in which a demonic entity could make its way into our reality.
Most of those among you who have studied these phenomenon, will have heard of ‘portals’ or ‘gateways’ that allow spirit beings to come into the material world.
According to what I have discovered so far, these portals must be places where the barrier has for some reason be weakened. And even if an entity makes it through such a portal, it still is pretty much confined to the surroundings of that portal…
As far as I have seen, the only things that can create such a link between realities, is either human beings calling to spirit entities (summoning), and through the death of living humans…
Especially violent and otherwise troubled deaths seem to attract demonic presences… It also seems to be the case that evil deeds and intentions in general can attract the attention of demons, although it appears to take the death of a person or
somebody inviting them into this reality to actually enable them to cross the barrier.
..
But in the end, what this entity at the graveyard really want, is unclear to me. It may be lying in wait for living victims, it may just as well be focussed on the souls of the deceased at the graveyard. But like I said; demons love death and negative emotions, and there are plenty of those to go around on a graveyard…

For you people who dont think ghosts are real, your wrong. I lived most my life out side of Jerome and that place is truly hanted.Not only the cemetery but so is the brige.There is a dog that cases you through the cemetery with gloing red eyes. there use to be a saintesst church in Jerome and the christians killed them all. Becouse the saintensst’s use to have human sacrefices under neath the brige. so the christians killed them and burnt down the saintesst church. Where the church use to be is a perfect outline of trees.A few years ago there was some kids who went under the brige to call upon the ghosts and they were never seen again. i goto Jerome as much as possible. it is the biggest thrill i have ever had.

I had lived in Cottonwood which is ten miles from jerome, my whole life and the most I have heard about this hellhound is from my personal research. I don’t think that it is fake, but I do think that alot of what people are saying about it is. However, in terms of hauntings in the area where people throw coins on the main road by the spirit room there is a block room called “The Bank Vault” and behind the bank vault on the wall angling away to for the corner of the courtyard there is roughly a three foot gap and one night I spent in Jerome I walked past and was disturbed to see a man hanging from a rope with blood dripping from the side of his mouth as though he had been hit. I dont know what correlation with the time I witnessed this and what state of mind I was in at the time is but I know that it was there. The only thing that didn’t look as though the man was really hanging there was the fact that the scene appeared in black and white like an old movie.

I’ve heard this dog story several times. My friends and I lived in Tipton County when we were younger, which is just south of Howard county, where Jerome is (eastern Howard County in Indiana). We visited the town a few times. From what we had heard, the paranormal activity in this town’s general area goes beyond just the cemetery. We have all heard stories of past Occult/Witchcraft related activity within the woods outside of Jerome, which might support one posters theory of this dog being summoned. We’ve been to the said cemetery more than once. I’ll admit that I haven’t seen anything with my own eyes except one POSSIBLE clue to support the rumor, but there is certainly a very unsettling feeling about the place. The uneasy feelings could be caused by knowledge of the rumors, but I consider myself to be quite the skeptic and that keeps my mind clear of enchantment brought on by wild thoughts. Not to mention, I’ve been to other cemeteries after dark and did not experience this sinking sensation.
During one of my visits to the town, a few of my friends were entering the woods that border the outskirts of the cemetary because there a few stray headstones and they had decided to try and decipher the markings upon them using a lighter for illumination. After a few minutes, they came running, panting out some choice words all the while, and ordered everyone to get into their vehicles. I was walking in the vicinity of my truck with a couple of friends just chatting and didn’t question their demands. They sounded genuinely terrified. One of the spooked explorers was riding with me and as we drove away he was looking out the rearview mirror and screaming “Holy Sh*t!”. After I inquired what he was talking about he informed me he was seeing two glowing red eyes behind us. I looked in my rearview mirror and did indeed see two red dots next to eachother, but I have always written it off as the reflection of the brake lights on a headstone. My friends constantly tell me that none of the headstones were shiny or smooth enough to project a glare, but I haven’t been back since to confirm that claim. After we got back on the road he told me they had heard a growl and then the sound of something running toward them, which is why they fled back to the vehicles. This was the once incident I MAY have had concerning this dog rumor. One thing of note, there is a house right in front of this graveyard. The cemetery is virtually this house’s backyard. My wife was friends with one of the inhabitants of this house. The girl who lived there in childhood said she had never heard or seen a dog, but she AND her family had seen the vision of a little girl running towards the house. This was in the morning during daylight.
One thing I will say is that there are certain roads within the town that twist and turn and are surrounded by forest, which can be pretty creepy at night. It almost seems as if the roads are carrying you into the town rather than you driving on them. There is a very sharp curve in the road at some point that is indicated by a sign. At the time of our visit, someone had spraypainted the sign’s arrow to point in both directions, which is a very tasteless prank. We have also heard stories of deaths by automobile accident at this spot. This spot is supposedly heavily populated by spirits.
My friends repeatedly claimed to see things in between the trees as we drove along. My friends in the vehicle behind me claimed they all simultaneously saw something that resembled a man jumping from tree. They told me it looked to be jumping into the bed of my truck.
I have know idea if this town, the cemetery, or the area is haunted, but there continues to be story after story. As I said, I never actually saw anything aside from two “red dots” in my rearview mirror, but the feeling was there… and it was a disturbing one at that. I may go back again at some point and investigate those stones.
