Colin Salmon and Stephen Fry star in this brand new adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic Sherlock Holmes adventure, The Hound of the Baskervilles, reinterpreted as a dark folk horror by best-selling authors George Mann and Cavan Scott.

An ancient curse has awoken on Dartmoor, the members of the Baskerville family hunted by a spectral hound of Hell. With Sherlock Holmes busy in London, Doctor John Watson is sent to protect the new lord of the manor as fear and superstition run wild in the ancient countryside. Can Watson overcome his own terror to discover the truth behind the legend before the hound strikes again?

This is a wonderful audio adaptation of the classic Sherlock Holmes story. An excellent production and superb cast bring this eerie tale to life. Wit, wisdom and devilry abound. I hope they do more of these stories. Very enjoyable.

Thrilling Adaptation of the Holmes Classic

I was initially annoyed that Stephen Fry wasn’t Holmes, as he has narrated Doyle before and had a good tone for both voices. Then I actually listened to it, and Fry was perfect for Watson because of how expressive he is. Literally laughed out loud at parts. The gentleman who narrated Holmes is perfectly cast as well. Good narrators are half the battle with these things so wanted to compliment the casting.
