Story Summary 3.7


The story I read this week is “The Hound of The Baskervilles,” and this story is mainly about a huge, monstrous, supernatural dog that has been killing the Baskerville family. The first Baskerville family member that died that got Sherlock Holmes involved in the case was Sir Charles. Next on the list to die was Sir Henry. Dr. Mortimer became worried and decided to fly in Sir Charles to keep him safe and also hire a consultant detective to help him figure out the situation, which was Sherlock Holmes. When Sherlock Holmes got involved in the case, he used his techniques of deduction to figure out the case. With Sir Henry safe and sound, Sherlock Holmes and his trusty assistant Dr. Watson find out that the Baskerville’s neighbor was the one behind everything!
                My Reaction to this ending was very, very, VERY surprised because the neighbor was always the nice one trying to help the Baskerville family. Throughout the whole story, I was thinking the butler might be up to something that is causing these mysterious deaths to happen. The person that ended up being behind everything was the Neighbor, he was the family’s friend for many years. At the end of the story it turns out the neighbor was a Baskerville himself, whose father was banished and he came to avenge his father’s banishment.
