Is a classic Gothic novella that explores the duality of human nature. The story is primarily told from the perspective of Mr. Gabriel John Utterson, a London lawyer who becomes increasingly concerned by the strange relationship between his respectable friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, and the malevolent, repulsive Edward Hyde.

As Utterson investigates, the unsettling truth begins to emerge: Dr. Jekyll, a brilliant but morally conflicted scientist, has developed a potion that allows him to transform into Mr. Hyde, an embodiment of his darkest impulses and repressed desires. Jekyll initially revels in the freedom Hyde offers to indulge in his vices without compromising his respectable reputation. However, Hyde’s actions become increasingly violent and monstrous, and Jekyll finds himself losing control over the transformations.
