View fullsize

BBC has released two retro Victorian-style posters for Sherlock: The Abominable Bride along with a new promo teaser. This holiday special puts an incredibly fun spin on things by placing Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman's John Watson in the year 1895. Both the posters and promo offer us an eerie look at The Abominable Bride. This looks like it's going to be an incredibly fun special that delivers some fantastic entertainment for Sherlock fans. Here's the synopsis:

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!

Sherlock: The Abominable Bride is set to premiere on TV on January 1st, 2016, and it will also get a limited theatrical release very soon after. To watch a previously released extended trailer for the show click here, and for some previously released character posters, click here.
