Da denne, den fjerde og sidste af de lange Sherlock Holmes historier udkom i 1914, bemærkede Arthur Conan Doyle i en let tone: "Jeg tænker, dette er min svanesang i den skønlitterære genre". Ganske rigtigt var hans tid som skønlitterær forfatter praktisk talt forbi, og han gik ind for spiritismen, som kom til at beherske hans sidste år. Frygtens dal, der udkom som føljeton i The Strand Magazine fra september 1914 til april 1915, er den historie, hvori Holmes løser mysteriet om et rædselsfuldt mord i en herregård, omgivet af en voldgrav, i Sussex.
