The Devonshire legend preaches that the Baskerville family is cursed by a supernatural hound. While working on the case, Holmes and Watson meet suspicious locals ranging from an escaped convict to friendly neighbors, leaving them to wonder if such a beast as the hound is culpable for this murder. Based on the 1902 novella Ken Ludwig's Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery features 40 quirky characters played by just five actors. This thrilling show will keep you on the edge of your seat and laughing in the aisles.
