At Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes faced his greatest enemy- Professor Moriarty. But Moriarty, a centuries-old vampire, left Holmes cursed with immortality. Now, in shadowed London, Holmes walks the line between genius and monstrosity. When the last of the Watsons- Gionne, inherits her ancestor Dr. John Watson’s secret journals, she uncovers truths Moriarty will kill to claim. Truths Sherlock will die to protect. It’s a tale of blood, betrayal, and the eternal war between reason and darkness...

No less than world domination befits Professor James Moriarty and as an immortal vampire he has for hundreds of years worked toward that goal. By present day Moriarty's web spreads across the globe and into world politics. He is the Illuminati. But why has Moriarty so brazenly exposed himself in pursuit of John Watson's secret journals? Maybe it's not the journals he wants, but Gionne- the last of the Watsons. In protecting his former friend's descendant Holmes' hand is forced and soon either he or Moriarty must die.
Determined that he will not lose another Watson, Holmes must face his own demons. Gionne and the journals may be the key to Sherlock's salvation- or to Moriarty's victory over the world when it comes down to one more final showdown between the three.
Sherlock Holmes is as popular as ever, appearing in the extremely successful TV shows Sherlock, Elementary, Enola Holmes and the brand new Watson and Sherlock And Daughter, in addition to countless other comic book (and novel of course) pastiches by countless authors after Doyle.
Join us on the ground floor of this exciting new chapter in the history of Sherlock and help elevate Holmes: Undead into the great pantheon of Holmes pastiches!

Yes! We encourage you to get more than 1 item! That could be multiple copies of the same reward, or you can mix and match rewards! There is no limit, unless otherwise stated in the reward description.
Our campaigns are for a worldwide audience unless stated otherwise in the campaign. All international orders are sold with the terms DAP (Delivered At Place). You are responsible for any duties and taxes required for the shipment's entry into your country. Our carriers may require you to pay taxes and fees related to importation and customs brokerage of your shipment -- but if your item is really low in value, it may fall under the customs de minimis of most countries. For more information, please contact USPS
Zoop does not store or keep your credit card info. Stripe simply holds the credit card info until the end of a successful campaign and then charges it. It is strictly for this one time use and won't charge it ever again.
You can either access the transaction through your account and click the cancel button, or contact us at hello@wearezoop.com and we'll cancel it for you and send back a confirmation email.
Cancellations of rewards or add-ons of $500 or more must be made before there are 72 hours left in the campaign. The reason for this is it can have a negative effect on the tally of the campaign. If it is a limited reward or add-on, there may not be sufficient time for someone else to purchase it, leaving the campaign possibly not funded. We ask for your courtesy of the people running the campaign when making these decisions.
Please use the notes section in the last checkout step or you could e-mail us at hello@wearezoop.com with that info during the campaign if you'd like to get it out of the way. Otherwise, we'll be reaching out to all supporters of rewards that require feedback shortly after the campaign is over.
If you want to make changes, you should first cancel your original order and then start over with a new one. If you don't do that and simply process an additional order, the way our system is currently set up you may end up being overcharged for shipping -- which we could remedy for you, but it just takes that extra step of catching it and crediting you back the extra shipping, so please try the prior way first.
Rewards are the priority items that the creators have chosen for the campaign. Add-Ons are meant to be secondary items that are 'unlocked' after you buy something from the Reward level. There are no restrictions on buying Rewards, but you can only buy Add-Ons if you've bought a Reward. Zoop sets this up under the direction of the creators. Some may choose to only have Rewards, some may choose an even balance of Rewards and Add-Ons, and others may choose to only have one or two Rewards with the rest of the items being Add-Ons.
Since we have an a la carte rewards system, shipping rates will vary from supporter to supporter. We use a weight-based calculation system in your checkout cart, though, so, after you enter your country, you'll be able to see it calculated in real time with each item you add.
No - this is it! We're essentially your in-campaign pledge manager. If you are interested in supporting these creators, this is the time to do it! And it's the exact reason we allow you to purchase as many rewards as you want during the campaign!
