10. Chapter 9: Dr. Jekyll’s confession
Wanted to give his two personalities different bodies.
Jekyll , when he was younger, he had two sides:
1.Serious and successful Dr.
2.Wild, fun-loving, irresponsible man
Thought about it and dedicated a lot of time and hard work and then realised it was possible.
The next days he started to turn into Hyde more frequently. They hated each other. Jekyll gave up on keeping up with the chemicals (because he ran out of them) and let Hyde take the control of his body so Jekyll died.
Decided to write Lanyon and Poole to take the chemicals and stuff for him. Then, with Hyde’s body, he went to Lanyon’s house, drank the chemicals and turned again into Jekyll.
He prepared some chemicals and drank the mixture. Then his body turned into Hyde’s body (an evil man) and started to change into both body’s and every time Hyde took more control of him.
Hyde murdered Danvers and he was wanted for the police. One day Jekyll was sitting in the park when, all of a sudden, he turned into Hyde. Then, when he was about to head to his study, he remembered that it was locked so he could not enter.
