* ''W.G. Grace's Last Case'', by Creator/WillieRushton, is set a few years after the Martian invasion fromThe ''Literature/{{The War of the Worlds, Worlds|1898}}'', and has the real cricketer Grace investigating a murder with the help of Doctor Watson, who is at a loose end after Sherlock Holmes fell down the Reichenbach Falls. Along the way they meet Doctor Jekyll and a whole host of Mister Hydes.
* Creator/PhilipJoseFarmer developed what is commonly called the Wold-Newton Family, a group of public domain characters such as Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan, Arsene Lupin and others, who are either descended from or influenced by people who came in contact with [[MetaOrigin the radiation of]] [[GreenRocks a meteorite]] that struck near the titular town in England in the late 1700s. Not all his characters were in public domain at the time (''Tarzan Alive'' and ''Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life'' were both licenced works) and many characters who are ''still'' in copyright are at least alluded to. (The online continuations by other hands, of course, work on fanfic rules and have no such compunctions.)
* ''Literature/ErastFandorin'' got welded to both the ''Literature/SherlockHolmes'' and the [[spoiler:''Literature/ArseneLupin'']] PD canons via the "The Prisoner of the Tower" short story in the ''Jade Rosary Beads'' collection.
* There is an entire anthology dedicated to welding the public domain canons of ''Literature/SherlockHolmes'' to the Franchise/CthulhuMythos, titled ''Shadows Over Baker Street''. It featured such works as Creator/NeilGaiman's "Literature/AStudyInEmerald".
* An odd example happens in a ''Literature/TimeWarpTrio'' book, "Summer Reading Is Killing Me!". When a summer reading list is inserted into the magic Book, the titular trio are sent into a weird amalgamation of many different public domain stories, with villains such as the Headless Horseman, Long John Silver, and Dracula hunting down protagonists like Pippi Longstocking, Peter Pan, and all of the Little Women.
* ''Literature/{{Twig}}'': At the end of the story, the ruler of the Crown States is revealed to be Lord King Adam, who is implied to be the original FrankensteinsMonster, implying that ''Twig'' is a distant AlternateUniverse sequel of [[Literature/{{Frankenstein}} the original story]].

* ''VisualNovel/TheGreatAceAttorney'' has Sherlock Holmes as a character and retains the notion that his adventures are written about by his assistant (although in this continuity it is by the daughter of John Watson, Iris). However in the western translation, due to issues over certain elements of the Holmes canon falling under the protection of the Doyle estate (even though Holmes as a character exists in the public domain), Holmes is renamed "Herlock Sholmes" and the Watsons become the "Wilsons".

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' is in a world where AllMythsAreTrue ("but not all myths are accurate"), created by a self-described "Shakespeare nut"; as a result, its version of TheFairFolk includes the likes of [[Myth/EgyptianMythology Anubis]] and [[Myth/NorseMythology Odin]], but also [[Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream Oberon, Titania, Puck]] and [[Theatre/{{Macbeth}} the Weird Sisters]]. [[Myth/ArthurianLegend King Arthur]] also shows up, as does the {{Golem}} of Prague, while a one-off character is the {{Reincarnation}} of [[Myth/CelticMythology Cú Chulainn]].
