The Hound of the Baskervilles
In the 1600's, Sir Hugo Baskerville murdered a peasant girl who refused his advances. Shortly thereafter. Sir Hugo was found dead on the moor, viciously murdered by a terrifying hound from hell. Since that fateful night, every Baskerville heir has suffered the same grisly fate, with the most recent victim being Sir Charles Baskerville.
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are engaged to see that the same thing does not happen to latest Baskerville, Sir Henry. Thrown into a case full of local superstition, Holmes steers his way through a maze of ancient lore and innocent blood. Can Holmes protect Sir Henry and in the process break the howling curse that is The Hound of the Baskervilles?
Special Features:
After the mysterious disappearance of her father, the beautiful Miss Morstan starts to receive a present each year- a very large, rare and lustrous pearl. Who is her secret benefactor and why do they suddenly want to meet with her? The spellbinding mystery unfolds as Holmes and Watson are caught up in a cat and mouse chase, pursuing a priceless hoard of Indian treasure, and a murderer whose ominous trademark is "the sign of four".
