Hound Of The Baskervilles (The)

The ancient legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles has been passed down through generations of the family. So when Sir Charles Baskerville is found mysteriously dead in the grounds of Baskerville Hall, people immediately associate his death with the story of the monstrous creature that haunts the moor.

The world-famous Sherlock Holmes is drawn to the scene, knowing that there must be a more rational explanation. It is clear that the victim had been running for his life, but what could have inspired such terror?

Was it indeed a hound from hell or a totally different creature – patient, sly and murderous?­­       Arthur Conan Doyle
