Benedict Cumberbatch’s

PanARMENIAN.Net - "Sherlock" upcoming holiday special has been teased in some promo videos, but fans were left guessing what the title character and his loyal companion are dealing with until now. The official synopsis of "Sherlock: The Abominable Bride" has been released along with some new pictures, AceShowbiz reports.

The synopsis hints that Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) and John Watson's (Martin Freeman) latest case is involving "an enemy seemingly from beyond the grave." Below is the full description of the special:

We've been here before - but what if this wasn't the modern day but the late Victorian period? What if the world's most famous consulting detective and his best friend lived in a Baker Street of steam trains, hansom cabs, top hats and frock-coats?

Welcome to 'Sherlock' in 1895!

Some things, though, remain reassuringly the same. Friendship, adventure and especially, MURDER...

Why is Thomas Ricoletti a little surprised to see his wife dressed in her old wedding gown? Because, just a few hours before, she took her own life...

Mrs Ricoletti's ghost now appears to be prowling the streets with an unslakeable thirst for revenge. From fog-shrouded Limehouse to the bowels of a ruined church, Holmes, Watson and their friends must use all their cunning to combat an enemy seemingly from beyond the grave and the final, shocking truth about... the Abominable Bride!

"The Abominable Bride" will premiere January 1, 2016 in both the United Kingdom and the United States. It will also get a theatrical release in more than 500 theaters in the U.S. and the UK on January 5 and 6.
