A monstrous hound tormenting the cursed Baskervilles
family forms the premise of Doyle’s third novel, The Hound of the
Baskervilles, featuring the iconic Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. An
intercontinental thriller with coded messages and murderous secret
societies, The Valley of Fear is the last of Doyle’s four Sherlock Holmes
novels. Both works were first serialized in the Strand Magazine. While
both have been adapted extensively on film, television, radio, and in
theatre, The Hound of the Baskervilles is most popular, with over twenty
film and television adaptations across the world.
