The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
What if the darkest part of you could live a life of its own? In this tale of fog and fear, I offer a study of the soul split in two. Dr. Henry Jekyll, gentleman and scientist, seeks purity through division—but what he summons is far from pure. Mr. Edward Hyde is not a stranger. He is Jekyll unmasked. Set against the gaslit shadows of London, this story peers not at monsters from beyond, but those within. It is a mystery of morals, identity, and repression—a whisper in the ear that no man is entirely himself. To those who believe respectability is the same as virtue—read on. For what walks beside you, may well be you. — R.L.S.
