Description In a small village, Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett) and Dr. Watson (Edward Hardwicke) investigate several mysterious deaths believed to be victims of a vampire. The villagers suspect their newest resident, John Stockton (Roy Marsden), whose ancestors were burned there as vampires 100 years ago when a young girl was found with a gash in her neck. When Stockton arrives for a visit, a young baby is murdered and naturally the superstitious town points the finger at him. Stockton plays on their fears, as he's an accomplished student of occult ritual. Even Holmes cannot quite believe his own eyes.
