Episode 248: The Sherlock Home

“That and a toothbrush are, I think, all that we need” [SPEC]   What if you could stay in a Victorian-themed home with plenty of Sherlock Holmes-inspired elements? Don't answer just yet. What if you could stay in such a place and had to solve a mystery before you left? That's what Ken and TamiKai Frazier have developed in this unique house in San Antonio, Texas, to delight people who love puzzles, mysteries, and escape rooms, but who also want a relaxed and authentic atmosphere in which to solve these conundrums. Ken and Tami joined us to talk about what inspired them to create this experience and to give you a sense of what to expect if you book a stay there. We have another Canonical Couplet quiz: two lines of poetry for you to listen to and unlock which story we're referring to. One winner chosen at random from all correct entries will receive a mystery prize from the IHOSE vaults. Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by September 29, 2022 at 11:59 a.m. EST.
