Jerome Cemetery

Located in Howard County, this cemetery is the rumored home of the spirit of a man wearing a black cape or cloak followed closely by his large black red eyed dog.  The dog is very protective of his master and may attack if he feels you are a danger to his master.

April 21, 2007 Arrived at Jerome Cemetery at 11:45 p.m.  Investigators present were Kenny, Curtis, Brandon, Brock, Patrick and Julie.  Brock was Recording Investigator.   Clear night 56 degrees upon arrival.   No noticeable bugs.  Upon arriving we noticed a person standing on his porch watching us on the East side of the road leading to the cemetery.  A white car was parked near the entrance with no one inside.  After we got out of the vehicles and began taking pictures a group of teenagers came out of the woods around the cemetery, got into the white car and left.   Several orbs were present in the photos, no noticeable temperature changes were recorded.  Digital recorder was on during the investigation.  At approximately 12:15 a.m. the sound of "crackling and rustling" was heard coming from the wooded area  towards the back of the cemetery.   No obvious sightings of the red eyed dog or his master.   At about 12:20 a.m. a County Sheriff arrived in response to a call from a concerned citizen to question members about their purpose in the cemetery.   He was very polite and understanding of the IAE team members and their presence at the cemetery.  He recommended that we acquire permission from the local county Trustee before returning to complete the investigation.  He did   express interest in our findings and inquire if we had gotten anything "good " while here.  He had apparently questioned several groups  previously. The IAE will obtain permission from the necessary person before returning to this cemetery for a more thorough investigation. The team left at 12:29 a.m.
