Jekyll and Hyde
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is one of those stories I thought I knew. I was so wrong. Most adaptations of classics are mostly lies, egos, and wild interpretations. Here’s the real story.

Jekyll and Hyde – Chapters 6&7 (Part 1)
I decided to do these two chapters together because they are two of my favorite chapters and because the are very similar in feeling and foundation.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 5 (Part 1)
This is one of the chapters that I kind of wish Stevenson’s wife had permanently destroyed. It’s the most contrived, forced, lazy chapter of the whole book.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 5 (Part 2)
Most people who make movies and adaptations focus solely on the final chapter of the book. The story of Jekyll and Hyde is not just the final chapter.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 4 (Part 1)
A lot is being said in this chapter. A LOT. I feel like perhaps this is the first chapter of what the story is actually trying to be and trying to express.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 4 (Part 2)
The most poignant part of this story so far has been this chapter. It felt so NOW. This chapter describes so much of what being on social media is like.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 3 (Part 2)
I’m not saying that no one should create their own version of something that inspired them. But where are the people that ACTUALLY LIKE THESE STORIES AS IS?
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 3 (Part 1)
This is one of my favorite chapters of the book as far as really seeing the relationship between Utterson and Jekyll. Why does no one like this book?
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 2 (Part 2)
Dr Jekyll is the least interesting character. I see very little worth discussing when it comes to how evil, selfish people wreak havoc on good people.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 2 (Part 1)
How everyone reacts to Hyde is a reflection of who THEY are, not who he is. It’s all projection and transference.
Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 1 (Part 1)
In this episode I'm discussing "The Story Of The Door" which is the first chapter. The start to Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is equal parts bizarre and wonderful.
