  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Sherlock Homes vs. Jack the Ripper is yet another story by "author" Sue Mary. Based on the "3009" adaptation of Sherlock Holmes, it follows the world's greatest detective taking on Jack the Ripper.

It begins with Sherlock and Watson "solving criem" in the comfort of their own home until Watson reads that Jack the Ripper is killing people (including his wife). They team up with a werewolf named Jacob to investigate a haunted mansion where Jack supposedly lives. Things only go downhill from there as Sherlock battles such foes as a zombified Albert Einstein and a Tyrannosaurus Rex Tryanonosauros Reks. Can they save the "city of Englond" from Jack the Ripper's horror?

See also, The Huemn Ceniped 2 The Humen Milipede and Teh Screaming of the Lambs for more of Sue Mary's "stories".

Do not confuse with the Frogwares Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper game.

Tropes used in Sherlock Homes vs. Jack the Ripper include:
  • Aliens and Monsters: Sherlock and Watson battle wear-wolves, dinosaurs, and even a zombified Albert Einstein.
  • Bring My Brown Pants: When Watson first sees the haunted mansion, he "poppied his pants".
    • Also when he poops so much his pants "exlodd."
  • Card-Carrying Villain: Jacob is secretly working for Jack the Ripper only because Sue Mary is "on team Edwin".
    • Jack the Ripper seems to be this, too.
  • Crack Fic: We hope it's intentional...
  • Fridge Logic: Sherlock breaks down the door of a haunted mansion, because knocking would be too loud and alert the criminal!
  • Funetik Aksent: "rited", "frend", "screemed" and more adorn the story's choice words.
  • Gasshole: Watson farted louder than the sun, and it was sooooo stonky!
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: The only weapons Sherlock uses in the story are his fists and "Xcalibar".
  • Laugh Track: Whenever Watson does something stupid, "da audience laffs".
  • Serial Escalation: The entire story.
  • She Is the King: possibly. The story is set during Victoria's reign, and the King is never referred to with male pronouns.
