Sherlock Holmes died . . . then he was alive again!

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle created Sherlock Holmes in 1887 and the fictional detective became a phenomenon. When Doyle attempted to kill Holmes in 1893 in the story The Final Problem, there was a public outrage. In 1903 Doyle was forced to bring Holmes to life through his story The Adventure of the Empty House.
