From Sherlock Holmes Encyclopaedia

"A hound it was, an enormous coal-black hound, but not such a hound as mortal eyes have ever seen."
– Description of the hound

The Hound of the Baskervilles is the eponymous secondary antagonist of the novel The Hound of the Baskervilles (1902) by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The hound is described as a massive, supernatural beast with glowing eyes and a terrifying howl. It is said to be a curse placed upon the Baskerville family by a vengeful ancestor, Sir Hugo Baskerville, who sold his soul to the devil. The hound is believed to stalk the family and bring death to its members as punishment for their ancestor's sins.
