Darkholmes originates from ''The Housekeeper'', an unlicensed comic story written by [[Paul Magrs]] and published within a 2010 issue of ''VWOORP! VWOORP!'' magazine. The comic asserts that the village where [[Nest Cottage]] was located - which at that point had appeared unnamed in the ''[[Hornets' Nest]]'' series - was named "Darkholmes".
