But there is some controversy on whether he was a real person or not .Conan Doyle created a series that consists of 4 novels and 56 short stories, making many believe that sherlock wasn't real because his death was never recorded.

The best question to ask is, who was Sherlock Holmes? He took the detect out of detective. Even though he may or may not have neen a real person, he was based off of real people. He practiced forensic science and criminal profiling many years before the rest of the world, he had made a name for himself from the Scotland Yard in England.
