Based on the idea of the split personality, the story of the Robert Louis Stevenson's short novel is about a respectable doctor Dr Jekyll and his horrifying double Edward Hyde. Trustworthy lawyer named Mr. Utterson hears a gruesome tale of assault. The tale describes a sinister figure named Mr. Hyde who tramples a young girl, disappears into a door on the street, and reemerges to pay off her relatives with a check signed by a respectable gentleman. Therefore one of Utterson's clients and close friends, Dr. Jekyll, has written a will transferring all of his property to this same Mr. Hyde. Soon, Utterson begins having dreams in which a faceless figure stalks through a nightmarish version of London.
