three Musketeers are fictional--" The Three Musketeers is a novel by Alexandre Dumas, père.
Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, who first appeared in publication in 1887. He was devised by British author and doctor Sir Arthur Conan Doyle."

I think, if I remember correctly, that the three musketeers were real, but the story by Dumas was just fiction, and that Holmes was a fictional character, but was based on a French detective, who was a pioneer in what we would think of as modern detecive work.

WHOA deja vu. You 2 dudes do look alike. Until I saw your pictures I would have said fiction but now I guess anything is possible.

d'Artagnan is real. dumas based his stories on his memiors. so if he was real more than likely so were the three. sherlock holmes fictional.

all characters are false- but their stories are based on actual events. Depends on how live is viewed
