• Derived from Robert Louis [Stevensons] popular novella, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
    Dr. Jekyll is a respected doctor and friend of both [Lanyon], a fellow physician, and [Utterson], a lawyer. Jekyll is a seemingly prosperous man, well established in the community, and known for his decency and charitable works. Since his youth, however, he has secretly engaged in unspecified dissolute and corrupt behavior. Jekyll finds this dark side a burden and undertakes experiments intended to separate his good and evil selves from one another. Through these experiments, he brings Mr. Hyde into being, finding a way to transform himself in such a way that he fully becomes his darker half.
