Product Description:
Eerie illustrations enhance a blood-curdling edition of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most-celebrated Sherlock Holmes mystery, bringing its delicious shivers to a new generation of readers.
Is it true that a hellish hound is haunting the lonely moors, hunting down the hapless Baskervilles through the generations? If anyone can put this chilling legend to rest, it's Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. It seems the body of the latest owner of the Baskerville estate has just been discovered in a ghastly condition, and Holmes has been called in on the case none too soon. The howls and moans that punctuate the elaborate twists of this Gothic tale will raise the hair on readers' necks and make converts of any who are not already fans of the famed detective. This classic mystery novel is presented in an unabridged edition, lavishly illustrated with the atmospheric and stylish artwork of Pam Smy.

This story is a classic that has shown a long and healthy life. I think this book has all the elements of a brilliant story; mystery, supernatural suspense, evil and innocence, intellect, romance, human villainy, adventure and terror.
Sherlock Holmes is our Knight Errant; he lives for the puzzle, he longs for villains who can hold their steel and he is stimulated by cases where everything goes against him.
The story of the hound of Baskervilles is a simple and entertaining one. The country Doctor visits Sherlock Holmes at his famous lodgings at 221B Baker Street to tell him the legend of the Hound a devil-beast that haunted the moors around the Baskervilles ancestral home. The tale warned the descendants of this ancient family never to venture o the Moor in the dark hours when the powers of evil are exalted and free to attack.
Now after recent death of Sir Charles Baskervilles the Doctor is really worried because there is only one Baskervilles left and that is Sir Henry.
The Doctor is worried for Sir Henry he wouldn't like him to meet the same death and Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend Watson are faced with their most terrifying case of masterful detection and bone chilling suspense. This is a book anybody could read.
