About Sherlock Holmes
The fictional creation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Detective Sherlock Holmes could solve any case. Aided by his friend, the esteemed {Dr. Watson}, Holmes resided at 221B Baker Street in the late 1800s London in the Victorian era. Using his powers of deduction to solve nearly impossible cases, sometimes, Holmes would engage in drug abuse throughout the course of almost 50 short stories (all penned by Doyle) to stimulate himself and assist in solving the case.
It is believed that Sherlock Holmes is the basis for the cranky television doctor, House.
Dressing up as Sherlock Holmes
It's elementary, my dear Watson, that this Halloween you should dress as perhaps the greatest fictional detective of all time. Pick up a Sherlock Holmes costume complete with a proper British tweed coat with matching attached capelet and a double-brimmed Sherlock Holmes cap. Add a smoking pipe and a magnifying glass to prepare yourself to sleuth for the truth!
Were these results inaccurate? Let us know if they weren't!
