Sherlock Holmes

1. Holmes invites his client to tell his story "omitting no detail, however slight."

2. He goes to the scene of the crime and looks around for clues, such as footprints, cigar ashes, displaced objects, dust patterns (in "Black Peter", Holmes noted that a rectangular object had been removed from a shelf because he noticed a dust free patch on the shelf.)

3. He asks questions and interviews people he believes have some interest in the case (the victim's or suspect's family, employers, landladies). Sometimes he gets Watson or one of the street kids to do the legwork.

4. He analyzes the data he has found, trying to put it into a pattern. In other words, he thinks. He usually smokes his pipe during that time, and asks Watson to keep silent or come back later.

5. He tries out his conclusions, confronts the villain and closes the case.

Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. The end of this sentence has four words that begin with the letter 's.'

"As we watched it the fog-wreaths came crawling round both corners of the house and rolled slowly into one dense bank, on which the upper floor and the roof floated like a strange ship upon a shadowy sea." -- Dr John Watson, 'The Hound of the Baskervilles', Chapter 14.

The fictional character's address has become a museum to Sherlock Holmes and matches the description of the apartment from the books.

There was not a 221b Baker Street until recent years. The numbers on Baker Street only went to 85 during the time the Conan Doyle stories were written.

There are only two stories indicating there is a telephone at 221b Baker Street with no mention of a phone number.

In 'The Adventure of the Three Garridebs' Holmes calls Nathan Garrideb to setup an interview at Garrideb's home.

In 'The Adventure of the Retired Colourman' Holmes says, "Thanks to the telephone and the help of the Yard, I can usually get my essentials without leaving this room."

Both of these stories are late in Holmes' career, so it is likely the phone was a late addition.

NOTE: If you are referring to the 'Sherlock' BBC TV series, your question is in the wrong category.

First of all, there is no "spectral" or specter or ghost in the story, and she used the term "speckled band" because that is what she thought she saw.

The Baker Street Irregulars were a group of street children Sherlock Holmes used for surveillance. 'In the Baker Street Irregulars,' Sherlock Holmes had been framed for murder. The kids used all of their sleuthing smarts to gather the evidence needed to free Sherlock and put the right perpetrator behind bars.

Sherlock Holmes is very cynical. He's very clever and observant, of course. He's a loner, and he is never interested in women (the only one he was slightly interested in was Irene Adler). But he's also very brave and is willing to "rough it" in order to get a job done. He doesn't really sympathize with his clients. If he ever makes a mistake or loses a client, he berates himself greatly. He's very conceited and vain, but he still admits that his older brother, Mycroft Holmes, is more observant than he, though he himself is more energetic.

Personally I believe he has Aspergers. This carries an area of high operancy, like incredible intelligence in an area, such as clear observation and great ability to see connections the rest of us don't. Or great at maths, or music etc. They tend to be loners or have few friends and live by rules and the drive to complete tasks. There are other bits of the spectrum that apply to his personality too explaining his behaviours and intelligence.

A fictional character created by the famous writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes is a consulting detective/sleuth who solves cases simply with the power of observation and deduction. The reason people are drawn to this particular character is probably because he was the unlikely detective, a cocaine addicted man with an obsession for studying crime.

Answer The first story about the great fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes was A Study in Scarlet. It was first published in Beeton's Christmas Annual, in London, England in December 1887. Many of the subsequent stories where published in The Strand. When he was created by the author of the fictional Sherlock Holmes stories: in 1887. That is when Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published the first of his detective stories. Sherlock Holmes is a fictional character, not a real person.

I think the misleading detail in this case is the Red Headed League itself. The league was only formed to lure Jabez Wilson into doing the fake 'work'. Wilson would have got his post even if he was bald because the sole point of creating the league was to remove him from his shop from ten a.m. to two p.m. every day. However it is important to note that Wilson was not the target but the unwitting facilitator to the attempted crime. This story uses one of Conan Doyle's favourite motifs of the decoy. For similar stories where a character is decoyed from their usual environment to facilitate a crime see 'The Stockbroker's Clerk'; 'The Naval Treaty'; 'The Second Stain'; 'The Three Garridebs' and arguably 'The Copper Beeches'.

Impossible to answer as The hound of the Baskervilles is one of the most "Made into movies from a book" of all time, every time it is re-made, it changes.
The hound of the Baskervilles is one of (if not THE) most filmed movie of all time and many of the remakes differ greatly from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic.

Vermissa valley was a valley of fear . it was full of scowerers every one wanted to kill each other like scowerers want to kill doughlas and because of the fear of scowerers every one was leaving the valley.

He deduces that it was a warning, and a friendly warning, by someone who wished to remain anonymous. It was rushed due to fear of discovery and carried in the pocket until such time as it could be mailed. He also knew that most of the words were cut out of The Times (London), and the other words were printed to conceal the sender. We learn at the end of the story that he detected a hint of perfume on the letter, which indicated a female sender.

Vincent Spaulding "Has a white splash of acid upon his forehead." Also, his ears were "pierced for ear-rings," which was uncommon among men except in the seafaring class in the Victorian era.

1. A hugely entertaining and totally absorbing book which covers a further twelve of Sherlock Holmes' investigations originally published in The Strand magazine.

Holmes adventures are to me fascinating, revealing as they do the dark underbelly of Victorian society and many of them would create lurid headlines were they to actually occur today, even Holmes himself is not free from scandal when he is revealed by Watson to be of all things, a cocaine addict in A Scandal in Bohemia.

2. From his battle of the sexes with the resourceful adventuress Miss Irene Adler in, A Scandal in Bohemia, to his foiling of the criminal intentions of the "fourth smartest man in London" in the truly bizarre and at times comical, The Red-Headed League, Holmes is called upon to use his extraordinary powers of deduction and his ability to observe when others merely see, in a battle of wits against as varied and as determined a bunch of criminals as ever stepped outside the law.

3. At the chapters , as my firend mentions more likely short stories , they have a problem on the first of the each one and then holmes ussually based on mind and accompany with watson solves the problems .As you probably know Holmes character us comes out of Doyle's himself teacher Doctor josef bell . and between the 59 shorts stories the supporters call this as the best serie .

An example of foreshadowing is the crash of metal Helen heard indicating that something was happening (with the snake) on the night of her sister's death.

At the beginning of the story, it was owned by the Countess of Morcar, but it was stolen by James Ryder at the Hotel Cosmopolitan with the aid of Catherine Cusack. There is no record in the story of anyone "finding" the stone.

Your question is incomplete. Who came in what episode? Several people came to visit Holmes in various episodes.

By his own account, Sherlock Holmes attended university for two years, meaning he had a more than adequate education. The details of his education apart from that are not included in the canon, however, apart from Holmes' statement that his area of study was different from most of the other students.

(My personal theory is that he studied chemistry at Oxford, which is more of a history/English school, as opposed to Cambridge, known for maths and science, but that's just me.)
