I was reading the other day an analysis of Victorian female villains that kept calling her Penclosa and I thought you were talking about someone else XD

#yeah I think I remember seeing that typo before too #I tried looking up the actual last name Penelosa and I think ACD might have done a typo too!#the only lookalike names I could find were #Penalosa #and #Peñalosa #no Penelosa!#which given her name is put as 'Helen Penelosa' makes me wonder if she came up with a pseudonym #based off Helen of Troy (the most beautiful woman in Greek myth) and Penelope (the most loyal and cunning wife in Greek myth)#yes I am building a whole ass origin story for this one-off short story villainess why do you ask #helen penelosa #the parasite #arthur conan doyle
