After the sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville - purportedly caused by a giant ghostly hound - Watson is sent by Sherlock Holmes to Devon to protect Sir Henry Baskerville, heir to the family fortune, and to investigate the circumstances surrounding the tale. Is it merely legend, or are the Baskervilles indeed haunted by an evil which extends beyond the grave? Set on the ancient moor, with its atmosphere of mystery and ghostly shadows, 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' is a completely chilling and unforgettable piece of writing.

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?
