About the book

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a terrifying glimpse into both a horrific gothic scenario and a psychological phenomenon. One of the first classic works to tackle the concept of dual personality and also an astute literary examination of behaviour a modern listener may equate with schizophrenic tendencies, the novel was streets ahead of its time in 1886 and continues to be a firm favourite in the horror canon. The Story: Dr. Henry Jekyll creates a mysterious elixir, which he intends to enable him to explore the hidden depths of his personality. Coinciding with his experiment, Mr. Edward Hyde starts to appear more frequently on the London scene, often by night, and always leaving a trail of destruction and fear in his wake. When Mr. Hyde is seen disappearing into Dr. Jekyll's office door, tongues begin to wag -- how are the two men related, and how can the evil Mr. Hyde be stopped before a scandal ensues, dragging Dr. Jekyll down with him? - Publisher.
