"I find that before the terrible event occurred several people had seen a
creature upon the moor which corresponds with this Baskerville demon, and which
could not possibly be any animal known to science. They all agreed that it was a
huge creature, luminous, ghastly, and spectral. I have cross-examined these men,
one of them a hard-headed countryman, one a farrier, and one a moorland farmer,
who all tell the same story of this dreadful apparition, exactly corresponding
to the hell-hound of the legend. I assure you that there is a reign of terror in
the district, and that it is a hardy man who will cross the moor at night"
