Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Episode 7: The case of the Winthrop Legend

Holmes and Watson spend the weekend at the Winthrop Manor to determine who is threatening Mr. Winthrop. Is it his brother, his blind wife, or his brother’s bride-to-be? Or is it the family curse?
Legend has it that the Winthrops will meet violent deaths preceded by the arrival of silver coins and, ultimately, a gold coin at the brutal end. The Winthrops reopen their eerie mansion in defiance of the threats, with Watson and Holmes joining them.

The adventures of master detective Sherlock Holmes as he and his assistant, Dr. Watson and, somewhat reluctantly, the bumbling Inspector Lestrade, battle criminals in London…
