Directed by: Roy William Neill

The villagers of the tiny hamlet of La Morte Rouge in Canada are terrified - a legendary glowing monster has reappeared, flitting through the nearby fog shrouded marshes, sheep have been found dead, their throats cut. Holmes and Watson are attending a meeting of the Royal Canadian Occult Society when Lord Penrose hears of his wife's death. Holmes offers his help which Lord Penrose declines.

But a letter delivered to Holmes and Watson written by Lady Penrose before her death, expressing a vague fear for her life and pleading with him to come to the village. Holmes and Watson instantly cancel their plans to return to London. As Holmes says, "Consider the tragic irony: we've accepted commission from a victim to find her murderer. For the first time we're retained by a corpse".
