From Kultur: The Man Who Murdered Sherlock Holmes on DVD November 16

New York, NY, October 16, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: The Man Who Murdered Sherlock Holmes

Debuts on DVD November 16

Kultur is proud to announce the DVD release of the BBC production The Man Who Murdered Sherlock Holmes. This entertaining and evocative look into the demise of the world’s greatest detective will be available on DVD on November 16, 2010.

The Man Who Murdered Sherlock Holmes explores the world of Sherlock Holmes and asks the question: What was it that made Arthur Conan Doyle kill off the man who had dominated his life for so long? The life of the author who gave the world the Holmes adventures was at times as dark and mysterious as the man that he'd conceived.

This is the story of the creation of the extraordinary detective who many believe really existed. The real story behind the birth of the Victorian phenomenon is both disturbing and mystifying. With dramatic visualizations, contributions from leading Holmesian experts, figures from the world of literature and research and evidence from the medical community, the Sherlock Holmes enigma is dissected and the truth begins to emerge.

This DVD takes the viewer on a journey through the Edinburgh of the young Conan Doyle and the darker influences in his life and on into the streets of London and creation of the Holmes legend on the streets now walked by the infamous Jack the Ripper.
