Sherlock Holmes Society of the Cape Fear
The Sherlock Holmes Society of the Cape Fear was organized in 2017, and our first meeting was held on March 28th of that year. We began as an "in person" meeting in Wilmington, North Carolina, but because of the 2020 Covid pandemic, we have permanently switched to meeting once each month on ZOOM.
The Sherlock Holmes Society of the Cape Fear is proud to be a recognized "Irregular Scion Society" of the Baker Street Irregulars. The official recognition took place on the 18th day of September, 2023, as shown on the certificate.
Our regular meeting time is the third Tuesday evening of each month, beginning at 7pm EST. Our membership is spread out all over the USA and Canada, and all Sherlockians are welcome to attend! If you would like to be reminded each time a meeting is to take place, just compete the questionnaire at the bottom of this page!

Among Sherlockians, it's long been a popular game to treat Arthur Conan Doyle as nothing more than Dr. Watson's literary agent — the figure who simply brought Watson's stories to a publisher, with little hand in creating the material itself. After sixty years immersed in this world of scholarship, Thomas W. Campbell has developed a theory that pushes the idea further.
