The story follows the respected London physician Dr. Henry Jekyll, who develops a scientific potion that allows him to transform into Edward Hyde, a sinister and uninhibited alter ego. As Hyde begins to commit increasingly disturbing acts, Jekyll loses control over the transformation, revealing the dangerous consequences of attempting to separate the darker impulses of human nature from one’s outward identity. Through suspense and psychological tension, Stevenson explores themes of morality, duality, and the hidden aspects of the human mind.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRobert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) was a Scottish novelist, essayist, and travel writer known for works that combine adventure with psychological insight.
