Jekyll's Confession: The Duality of Man

Henry Jekyll's full statement reveals his lifelong struggle with his dual nature. He explains his scientific research into the separation of good and evil, and how he compounded a drug that could transform him into Edward Hyde, a being of pure evil. Initially, Jekyll enjoyed the freedom of his alter ego, but Hyde's actions grew increasingly monstrous, culminating in the murder of Sir Danvers Carew.
