    red cabinet where the body of Hyde is found. In the laboratory, the two discover a large

    envelope addressed to Mr. Utterson. Inside, Jekyll urges Utterson to read the pac kage from

    Lanyon and if he wished to know more, read the further description that Jekyll provided

    within the envelope.

    Lanyon's narrative begins by describing a strange letter he received from HenryJekyll, the night after a dinner party at Jekyll's residence. The letter urges Lanyon to go to

    Jekyll's house and get the contents of a drawer in the laboratory. Afterwards, a strange

    caller will come to Lanyon's house in Jekyll's name and recover these same items, powder, a

    phial, and a paper book. Lanyon does as much, thinking that Jekyll is crazy, and Mr. Hyde

    appears at the subscribed time. He gives Hyde the ingredients; Hyde mixes them into a

    potion, and after drinking it transforms into Dr. Jekyll. This shock, the pure evilness of the

    situation, was what brought about Lanyon's ubsequent death.

    After reading the account of Dr. Lanyon, Utterson then reads Jekyll's own account of

    his failed experiment. Jekyll believed that the soul is made up of two separate distinctions:evil and the good. These two separate beings live in continuous and inherent conflict with

    each other. Slowly, Jekyll begins an experiment where he makes two potions and transforms

    himself into Edward Hyde. Shortly after becoming Hyde, he drinks a second potion and once

    again becomes Henry Jekyll. This experiment begins Jekyll's exploration of his other self, a

    side that he freely explores and feels no remorse for the negative and evil actions of Mr.

    Hyde.

    For some months, this behavior continued until one moment, "I had gone to bed

    Henry Jekyll, I had awakened Edward Hyde." Alerted that the character of Hyde might

    irrevocably stay, Jekyll chose to give up the freedom of Hyde and for two months his

    decision held weight. Unfortunately, he was tortured with Hyde's longing and he once again

    took the potion and brutally murdered Carew. Because of the manhunt for Hyde, he swore

    this character off forever and set out to try to remedy the evil. This, however, failed because

    Hyde was an irrevocable part of Jekyll's character. One night, while contemplat ing the deeds

    of Hyde, Jekyll was once again transformed into Edward Hyde. Realizing that he could not

    return to his house, he sent the letter to Dr. Lanyon and Mr. Poole and went immediately to

    a hotel. He went home once again but every time he would fall asleep, he would revert to

    Mr. Hyde. Soon, his potions began to fail to work and he ran out of the salt needed for the

    potion. Hyde launches a desperate search across London for this potion, but was

    unsuccessful. In the end, Hyde kills himself and therefo re lets both Jekyll and Hyde free.

    Character

    Characters are the descriptions given to people in the story by the author. There are main

    characters and minor characters. Each character plays its own role in creating the plot of the

    story. Some characters are more important than others. In this story the two main

    characters are:

    DrHenryJekyll / EdwardHyde

    Doubles title character is a doctor who has covered a secret life full of violent acts.

    She felt as if he continues to struggle within himself between what is good and what

    is evil, and keep those dear to him. After drinking his own potion creation, Jekyll

    transformed into, smaller young, ruthless, cruel, e vil Edward Hyde, who represented

    the hidden nature of Dr Jekyll's brought to the fore. Dr. Jekyll has many friends andhave a friendly personality, but as Mr. Hyde, it is a mystery, violence, and secrets.

    Over time, Mr. Hyde grows in power. After taking the mixture is repetitive, she does

    not rely on it to release the inner demons of his alter ego. Finally, Mr. Hyde grows so

    strong that Dr Jekyll to rely on potions to keep his own.

    Stevenson says that Hyde never take pleasure in the night forays, saying generally

    that it is something that is evil and full of passion, therefore it is in the context of the

    times, morally repugnant to the religion of Victoria. Hyde could only have been

    reveling in activities inconsistent with the stature Jekyll, as involved in prostitution or

    robbery, or maybe just a stroll in London's dark all night and sleep during the day.

    However, Hyde terrorism that appears to give the sensation of the most, prompting

    him to attack and kill Sir Danvers Carew without reason, makes it a criminal hunted

    throughout the UK. Realizing he would be forever Hyde, Jekyll leaving a will,

    indicates that while Jekyll often feel like a cheater, Hyde feels like in "native" is much

    younger and more energetic than the more "friendly" to its own. He also said that

    despite the latest admission Hyde know people shy away from him, he does not

    care.

    Dr.HastieLanyon

    A friend of Jekyll's ex, Hastie Lanyon did not agree with the 'scientific' concepts thathis Lanyon describes as' ... too weird '. He was the first person to whom it disclosed

    the identity of Hyde (Hyde back to Jekyll transforms himself in front of the Lanyon's).

    Dr Lanyon Utterson help solve this case, when he describes the letter given to him by

    Jekyll. When Lanyon witness the transformation process, (and then listen to a

    personal recognition of Jekyll, makes his own), Lanyon become critical and then died

    of shock. As the embodiment of Victorian rationalism, materialism, and skepticism,

    Lanyon serves as a foil to Jekyll.

    Mr. GabrielJohn Utterson

    Gabriel John Utterson, a lawyer and loyal friend of Jekyll (and Lanyon's), the narrator

    focuses on the characters, and follow in its efforts to find the identity of Hyde.

    Utterson is described as a measure, and every moment of emotion, scholars - who

    seem to remain credible, reliable, tolerant of the mistakes of others, and really fun.However, Utterson, like other characters, is the hypocrites, for while he was quick to

    investigate and assess the mistakes of others, Stevenson use it with old secrets. "He

    lowered the dust with a lot of things that have hurt him to do"

    Poole

    Poole is the head of Dr Jekyll server that, after considering reclusiveness and change

    master, went to Mr Utterson in fear that his master was killed and the killer, Mr

    Hyde, who was in the room. Jekyll Poole served faithfully, and efforts to do a goodjob and loyal to his master. But eventually drives him to join the event with Utterson

    to find the truth.

    RichardEnfield

    Richard Enfield is the nephew of Mr. Utterson, and associate to the inquiry. She is

    the one that says the lawyer's personality is actually heir to Jekyll, Mr. Hyde. Enfield

    saw Hyde walked on a little girl in the street at random, and she, with her parents

    and other residents, forcing Hyde to write a check for her family. Enfield found that

    the check was signed by Dr Jekyll. These checks found the original. She said Hyde

    disgusting to see, but find yourself confused when asked to describe the person.

    Maybe Hyde personality and attitude that distinguishes him from fellow humans,

    making it impossible for them to identify with the characters.

    InspectorNewcomen

    It invited the Scotland Yard inspector Mr Utterson, Sir Danvers Carew after the

    murder. They explore the loft in Soho and Hyde look for evidence of the depraved

    life.

    was only successful for a short while and it brought him discontentment andunhappiness.
