The Sherlock Holmes Stories

A Study in Scarlet (Playing time: 4.5hrs)
It is the first story to feature the character of Sherlock Holmes, who would later become one of the most famous and
iconic literary detective characters, with long-lasting interest and appeal. The book's title derives from a speech
given by Holmes to his companion Doctor Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder
investigation as his "study in scarlet" "There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein
of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it" (Summary from Wikipedia)

The Sign of the Four (Playing time: 4.2hrs)
When a young lady approaches Sherlock Holmes looking for help in finding out what happened to her father
when he disappeared 10 years earlier, both Holmes and Watson are sent on a mission involving stolen

What really killed Sir Charles Baskerville? Is his nephew, Sir Henry, in danger from the legendary family curse,
a gigantic black hound? Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are on the case in this classic mystery, set on lonely Dartmoor
in Devonshire. Neolithic ruins, a perilous quagmire, eerie sounds in the night, and (of course) fog all add to the fun,
with an escaped convict thrown in for good measure. (Summary by Laurie Anne Walden)

Professor Challenger Stories

The Lost World (Playing time: 8.3hrs)
The Lost World is a 1912 novel by Arthur Conan Doyle concerning an expedition to a plateau (native name is Tepuyes)
in South America (Venezuela) where prehistoric animals (dinosaurs and other extinct creatures) still survive.
The character of Professor Challenger was introduced in this book. Interestingly, for a seminal work of
dinosaur-related fiction, the reptiles only occupy a small portion of the narrative. Much more time is devoted
to a war between early human hominids and a vicious tribe of ape-like creatures. (Summary from Wikipedia)

The Poison Belt (Playing time: 3.3hrs)
Three years after the events that took place in The Lost World, Professor Challenger urgently summons his fellow explorers
(Professor Summerlee, Lord John Roxton, and reporter E.D. Malone) to a meeting. Oddly, he requires each to bring an oxygen
cylinder with him. What he soon informs them is that from astronomical data and just-received telegraphs of strange accidents
on the other side of the world, he has deduced that the Earth is starting to move through a region of space containing something
poisonous to humankind. Shutting themselves tightly up in Challenger’s house, they start to consider what may be done. But as their
countrymen start to drop, will their oxygen last long enough to determine and implement a solution? (Summary by Mark Smith)

The Parasite (Playing time: 1.97hrs)
Being a physiologist, Austin Gilroy is unconvinced that the occult is real. His friend Professor Wilson, however,
is not only convinced that psychical powers are real, but eagerly desires that Gilroy should be persuaded. To this
end, Wilson invites Austin to hishouse for a demonstration. The effect is that Austin, although still skeptical, now
concedes that there is more in the matter than he at first believed. But when the psychic, Miss Penclosa, controls
his actions to the point where he nearly murders his fiancee, Austin Gilroy doubts no longer. (summary by Carl V.)
