Why? Fandom Unleashed, Fanfiction Engaged

Abstract

Most fans are not satisfied by consuming their object of admiration, but they set out to claim the characters as their own and spin on the thread of the original works. As such, one of the most active fandom is the Sherlock Holmes fandom, which stands in the center of this work. These fanfictions are forming various critical opinions and the aim was to find a discourse where these stories and online behaviour could be understood better.
