Hellhound (ヘルハウンド, Heruhaundo^?) is a Phantom whose power over flame includes the ability to shoot fire from its mouth, sent by Phoenix and Medusa to create a new Phantom using Shunpei Nara.

It also had a motorcycle called Black Dog (ブラックドッグ, Burakku Doggu^?) that it uses to evade the attacks of Kamen Rider Wizard, but it was destroyed by Wizard in their second fight.

Hellhound is revealed to be TV Yūhi morning news announcer Kazuo Tajima (田島 一夫, Tajima Kazuo^?) who sought to turn Shunpei Nara into a Phantom by destroying the young man's dreams of ever being a mage, Hellhound uses his shadow ability to trick Shunpei into thinking he gained magic powers before humiliating him on national television and forcing him to destroy his childhood book to begin the creation of a new Phantom.

Kamen Rider Wizard arrives to battle Hellhound on live television, but the Phantom outsmarts him by sneaking in and out of shadows before destroying the TV camera. After using the Light Magic Ring to flush out Hellhound, he changes to Water Style to counter the Phantom's flame attacks before finishing him off with the Water Slash Strike.
