Night of the Demon (1957) timeline: October 28. “You've sold your bill of goods too well, because I believe you now. I believe that in five minutes something monstrous and horrible is going to happen. And when it does, you're going to be here so that whatever happens to me will happen to you.”

"The Adventure of the Three Students" is complete! The three suspects are represented at the top, the crime scene is at the bottom. My Watson said it was one of his favorites ☺️ #sherlockholmes #miniatures #art #booksky #mysteries #victorian

I’m on my way home from Southampton and was sort of in the area, so I stopped by to pay my respects to the great man #sherlockholmes

Basil Rathbone, Evelyn Ankers, and Nigel Bruce for THE PEARL OF DEATH, a Sherlock Holmes mystery directed by Roy William Neill in 1944.

Two nice finds last weekend, a 1901 Study in S, for £15, and I haven’t seen the Granada Holmes guide before, snapped up for £1.50. And the Sci Fi book is I am Legend for a quid😀

The sun is shining and I'm excited to be throwing myself into rehearsals for Sherlock Holmes : the Hunt for Moriarty!

I’m not going to lie, I bought this just for the title and the cover 😀

Just arrived. This is a great idea, for an anthology. #SherlockHolmes

Happy Black Country day !!

I would’ve loved this to have continued, maybe as the adventures of Arthur Conan Doyle,with Woodie his secretary as his Watson.

To the 3 or 4 people who’ll see this. Is this game any good? #sherlockholmes

Top work by Edward S Smith Jr, I love these little gems of Sherlockiana #sherlockholmes

Well, with me being an Engineer (two thumbs) you’d think this Lego set would be a piece of cake🤔.It all went wrong with just one misplaced brick, and then it was a bit lopsided 😀. Then I ordered a replacement brick that I hadn’t lost 😂.

Out for a stroll

Transcript of the letter in which the 'Study in Scarlet' quote resides. The first of four Doyle letters from the State Library of New South Wales that I'll be putting up at the blog. 221bcooee.blogspot.com/2025/06/dear...

Finally! I have the print copies of #sherlockholmes into the Fire for the last proofread. This project is 99% finished after 16 months of work. Excited! Almost there!

“Please be at the ‘Black Swan’ Hotel at Winchester at mid-day to-morrow,” it said. “Do come! I am at my wits’ end. COPP #sherlockholmes

A nice find #bookpatrol

I’m in Copenhagen, and we’ve just found this lovely coffee shop #sherlockholmes

And now I’ve got the munchies

I'm at Nasjonalmuseet in Oslo swarmapp.com/user/1072351...

I’m not a big fan of Sundays

This was a nice find, the book was the property of the Police Library at one time. E.R.C. Bradford was one of the commissioners of the police during the Ripper murders #ArthurConanDoyle

Please sign this petition to persuade English Heritage to honour Jeremy Brett's outstanding achievements with a Blue Plaque at his home on Clapham Common.

Last Sunday, I visited the SH museum shop, called at the chemist for a 7% solution, spotted a blue plaque, and fitted in high tea at the Ritz 😀

Guilty as charged 😀 www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-4...
