They are often assigned to guard the entrances to the world of the dead, such as graveyards and Indian burial grounds, or undertake other duties related to the afterlife or the supernatural, such as hunting down lost souls or guarding a supernatural treasure. There is a legend, it tells that if one happened to see the hellhound three times, he or she will die an abrupt and unseen death.

The most famous Hell hound is Cerberus, who guards the entrance to the under world.

If you see it three times, you die a coincidental death.

I saw a dog-like creature when I was 12ys old after getting home from church one night. We had back porch light on and I was walking toward our back side porch when I got even with the corner of the front porch which the light was off on the front porch. This thing which I call a demon stuck it's head out of the darkness looking at me it felt evil, angry and it hated me specifically. It looked Undead and had empty eye sockets blood red teetth & fangs pointed ears no skin but had flesh I could see the sinew and muscles out in the open. Then it growled at me & I yelled"There's something over here!" My grandfather asked what is it but when I looked around it had silently vanished. I' ve never seen it again till this day. It looked like a doberman from hell. That sh*t was f**ked up!

i have seen something like this....i was visiting my sisters grave,i heard barking,figured maybe a stray dog or something......but when i got to my in sight of her grave my dog ,who had died a year before,was standing by her gravestone.........i ran as fast as i could to get to the dog,to see if it really was my old friend.....but when i got there the dog was gone . nothing but the smell of sulphur was there to greet me

they say hellhounds appear differently depending on the person......maybe it was just my dogs spirit watching over me,or maybe it was a hellhound....i dont think i will ever know for sure.
( my dog was a white german sheperd )
also why is it that in movies hellhounds are always associated with rottweilers ?
