Tseshaht Face in the Rock mystery
"The face appears to be a rock carving [about seven feet tall] tucked in a cleft on the small, rugged island cliffs. There are reefs along the steep shoreline making the approach to the Face in the Rock dangerous ... [you must navigate] through a ‘chute’ between the reefs and the island ... it would be necessary for very calm water for someone to jump from a boat and climb to get close".
Then you can talk with it.

In my search for intermediate-level adventures to continue my Holmes-based OD&D campaign, I came across the Gen Con X tournament dungeon, originally published by Judges Guild.
There's something about this adventure that's very "Holmesian" - the dungeon in particular. Gen Con X was right around the time that the Holmes Basic Set came out, so that's probably no coincidence.
Interestingly, there's a set of tournament rules included, in which it's stated that a dagger strikes 2 times per round! The tournament was played in 1977, so a connection to the rule in Holmes seems quite likely.
