Best Answer

In "The Hound of the Baskervilles," as in much English fiction, the moors are English hills. In the real workd, they are hills in England that are a frequent spot for hiking.
In the Hound of the Baskervilles the moor is not a 'who' it is a 'what'. The moor is an area of high ground with grass which in the dark of night adds mystery to the story.
