Since his first literary appearance in 1886, the murderous Mr Hyde
has embodied the evil that even good men including his alter ego,
Henry Jekyll - are capable of when the constraints of civilized
life are loosed. This chilling anthology also collects nine of
Stevenson's best-known tales of horror, including 'The Body
Snatcher', 'Markheim', 'Thawn Janet', 'The Bottle Imp', 'The Isle
of Voices', 'The Waif Woman', 'Olalla' and 'Will o' the Mill'.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

'All human beings, as we meet them, are commingled out of good
and evil.'
After taking an elixir created in his laboratory, mild mannered
Dr Jekyll is transformed into the cruel and despicable Mr Hyde.
Although seemingly harmless at first, things soon descend into
chaos and Jekyll quickly realises there is only one way to stop
Hyde. Stevenson's quintessential novella of the Victorian era
epitomizes the conflict between psychology, science and religious
morality, but is fundamentally a triumphant study of the duality of
human nature.
