What did Mr Hyde do when he wasn’t Dr Jekyll?

Have you ever wondered what Mr Hyde actually did when he wasn’t Dr Jekyll?  Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde gives very little detail about Dr Jekyll’s evil double, Mr Hyde, except in general reports of his wrongdoings.

Duncan McGibbon will explain how the secret of Hyde’s misdemeanours lies in both Robert Louis Stevenson’s early poetry of liberation from Calvinistic propriety and de Maupassant’s short horror story Le Horla.
