Sir Henry Baskerville is living contentedly at Baskerville Hall with his new wife Audrey and their three-year-old son Harry. Until, that is, Audrey's lifeless body is found on the moors, drained of blood.

Book excerpt: With six Academy Awards, four entries on the American Film Institute's list of 100 greatest American movies, and more titles on the National Historic Register of classic films deemed worthy of preservation than any other director, Billy Wilder counts as one of the most accomplished filmmakers ever to work in Hollywood. Yet how American is Billy Wilder, the Jewish émigré from Central Europe? This book underscores this complex issue, unpacking underlying contradictions where previous commentators routinely smoothed them out. Wilder emerges as an artist with roots in sensationalist journalism and the world of entertainment as well as with an awareness of literary culture and the avant-garde, features that lead to productive and often highly original confrontations between high and low.

Book excerpt: "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In these recently discovered accounts, sealed and hidden from prying eyes for almost eighty years, Dr. John H. Watson puts pen to paper once more, as he accompanies his friend, that most rational of detectives, Mr. Sherlock Holmes in the utterly irrational realm of the otherworldly, the uncanny, and the supernatural. Enter the gaslit world of Holmes and Watson - a world caught halfway between the bright glare of science and logic and the darker clutches of superstition and fear - a world of unknown creatures, secret seances, ancient curses, and forbidden knowledge - where the enquiring mind of the world's first consulting detective must search for the answer to some new and challenging questions... What was it about the loathsome contents of a match-box that sent an apparently fearless man stark staring mad? How can Sherlock Holmes be called upon to investigate a murder where the victim is his client, and where the murder has already taken place? What is it that lies in the darkness of an ancient burial mound, and can it really bring about death to any who would disturb its resting place? Can mere words in a stolen manuscript really open men's minds to maddeningly terrifying visions of a world beyond our own? In order to find the solutions to these problems, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson may yet discover that sometimes it is not so easy to eliminate the impossible!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Donald Thomas is the all-time best at Sherlockian pastiche." —Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine "Have you ever seen a ghost, Mr. Holmes?“ asks Victoria Temple, and Sherlock Holmes, at the height of his powers in 1898, must face a new challenge, one that plunges the great detective into the realm of the supernatural. Miss Temple has been found guilty—but also insane—at her trial for murdering a child under her care. She is locked away in the Broadmoor lunatic asylum and, worse still, she believes fully in her own guilt. But were the hauntings at the Elizabethan manor house of Bly a vision of the walking dead, perhaps, rather than delusions of her tormented mind? Or could it be that a criminal conspiracy is to blame for the psychic phenomena? In the company of Dr. Watson, the indefatigable Holmes will track down the perpetrators through the occult underworld of Victorian London.

Book Synopsis Don’t Go Into the Cellar, Mr Holmes! by : Jonathan Goodwin
Download or read book Don’t Go Into the Cellar, Mr Holmes! written by Jonathan Goodwin and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains five scripts, three of which I owe a great debt of gratitude to Tony Reynolds as they are adaptations of stories taken from his wonderful book of Sherlock Holmes stories ‘The Lost Stories of Sherlock Holmes' - The Adventure Of The Medium, The Giant Rat of Sumatra and The Adventure of The Amazonian Explorer. As for the others, “Holmes Alone” is a light-hearted romp, that borrows elements and characters from several other Conan Doyle tales. “The Mazarin Malediction” is my attempt to embellish that oft-maligned story, “The Mazarin Stone”. Almost always it's this story in particular that is singled out for harsh criticism. Yet I have always enjoyed the tale, and the others in the collection entitled “The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes”. “Malediction” is my homage to ACD’s original, written and performed with great affection and enjoyment. To paraphrase Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I have wrought my simple plan if I brought one hour of glee to the Sherlock fan, and the Doyle devotee.
