The very thought of it makes my blood run cold.
It was the spring of the year 1897.
Holmes' iron constitution had shown some signs of giving way due to a particularly arduous and nerve-wracking winter.
In March of that year, Dr. Moore Agar of Harley Street gave positive injunctions that Holmes get out into the country for a protracted rest.
Well, the third week in March, Founder settled in a small cottage near Poldu Bay... at the further extremity of the Cornish Peninsula.
Bleak is putting it mildly.
I've never known such grim surroundings, but it suited Holmes admirably.
He seemed to blossom in that weird and foreboding fog-swept district.
Oh, I dare say.
Our little whitewashed cottage stood on a grassy headland...
From its windows we looked down upon the whole sinister semicircle of Mount's Bay, that old deathtrap, with its fringe of black cliffs and surge-swept reefs.
In every direction there were traces of some vanished race which had left as its sole record strange monuments of stone.
Holmes spent most of his time pottering round these weird ruins,
Everything was going along peacefully until one morning our simple and healthy routine was violently interrupted.
We were precipitated into the middle of a series of gruesome and nerve-shattering events.
Holmes, what are you trying to do?
Give me a case of nerves?
No, come along, Holmes.
Come along.
The room gives me the jumps.
