The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Part Five.

At last, Dr Jekyll tells his own story. Driven by a lifelong struggle between respectability and desire, he pursued a dangerous line of inquiry into the nature of the human soul. But what if the boundary between good and evil is more fragile than anyone suspects?

Set in the foggy, cobblestone streets of London, lawyer, John Gabriel Utterson investigates the mysterious relationship between his old friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, and a sinister man named Edward Hyde. What begins as a troubling mystery surrounding a suspicious will, quickly spirals into a dark exploration of science, morality, and the duality of man. 

The Haunted Library is open. Come in. Stay awhile.
