Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson
A suspense-filled masterclass of horror. A repulsive creature stalks the streets and hes becoming harder to control by the charming Dr Jekyll who couldnt be more different to the violent, depraved Mr Hyde until, that is, he takes a potion of his own concoction. New introduction with three dark-themed companion tales.Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson, novelist, essayist and poet, is considered to be one of the great classic storytellers. Stevenson wrote a number of popular and enduring fantasies, including Treasure Island (1883), The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), Kidnapped (1886) and The Master of Ballantrae (1889). He was a lifelong sufferer of tuberculosis and often travelled abroad in search of climates more healthy than his native Scotland. Finally he settled with his wife Frances, in Samoa, where he passed away in 1894.
