I'm currently reading "Murders in the Rue Morgue" for the first time, and it basically reads like a Holmes case. Was Doyle influenced by this, or do both Poe and Doyle build on an archetype or genre that was popular in the 19th century?

If anyone's still looking for an audiobook version, I'm currently listening to https://librivox.org/the-sign-of-the-four-version-3-by-sir-arthur-conan-doyle/ , and can recommend.
