Note[]

The 1st and 2nd editions of GURPS Horror had a write up of Sherlock Holmes but neither really followed the point cost rules for skills. The write ups also omitted key aspects of the character, and were incompatible with some of the changes in 4th edition.

The write up of Sherlock Holmes didn't appear in either the 3rd or 4th edition of GURPS Horror.
