The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
by Robert Louis Stevenson
English • Published 1886 • Public Domain • Free to stream
Published in 1886, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is one of the most influential works of gothic horror ever written. Robert Louis Stevenson's chilling novella explores what happens when a brilliant scientist attempts to separate his good and evil impulses into two distinct beings — and loses control of the result. The respectable Dr Henry Jekyll descends into the monstrous Mr Edward Hyde, and the story becomes a gripping psychological thriller about identity, repression, and the darkness lurking within every human soul. First serialised as a "shilling shocker," it became an instant bestseller and gave the English language a phrase we still use today.
