We start the series with the 1939 classic black & white mystery The Hound of the Baskervilles, based on the 1902 novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It is among the best-known cinematic adaptations of the book and stars Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes, Nigel Bruce as Dr. Watson, Richard Greene as Sir Henry Baskerville, and Wendy Barrie (god-daughter of J. M. Barrie, author of Peter Pan) as Beryl Stapleton.

Synopsis: Sherlock Holmes is intrigued by a centuries-old legend in which every generation of the wealthy Baskerville family is eventually killed by a monstrous hound. Suspecting there is more to the story than meets the eye, he sends Dr. Watson to the estate to investigate. Sir Henry, the only Baskerville left, is grateful for his help. But when a crazed convict escapes and footprints from a beast are found, Baskerville wonders if Watson will be enough.
