Sherlock Holmes is the fictional creation of Arthur Conan Doyle. He first appeared in ' A Study in Scarlet' in 1887, his last stories appear in 'The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes' published between 1921 and 1927.

The story ' His Last Bow' is set in 1914 just before the outbreak of the war, Holmes catches German spies. This is the last Holmes story (not the last written, but the one which tells of his last case), He has by this time retired to a small farm in Sussex to keep bees.

The Story 'The Final Problem' set in 1891 and published 1893 sees Holmes and Moriarty fall over a waterfall in Switzerland. Holmes is presumed dead, but it turns out survived the last fight and went into hiding to enable him to catch the rest of Moriarty's gang. Holmes returns to London, and Watson in 'The Adventure of the Empty House' set in 1894, but published in 1905.

Holmes faked his own death on Monday 4 May 1891 to allow him to work undercover.

Does Sherlock Holmes really die in The Testament of Sherlock Holmes?

In the trailer, it shows a casket being lowered into a grave marked Sherlock Holmes: 18 something something to 1888. So it's safe to assume that he truly does die. But they could also do with this what Conan Doyle did after The Final Problem.
