211 — Jekyll and Hyde


Listen Later

Carly teaches Kelsey all about The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, one of the most famous pieces of English Victorian era literature and the most prolific books in the gothic horror genre. We learn about the author and his inspiration behind the story. We chat about how this gothic novella has influenced tv, theatre, film, and pop culture (and obviously, Arthur); we discover various themes throughout the story; have an extra-fun Jack The Ripper crossover; and even learn the truth behind the REAL-LIFE Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. This story isn't as you remember it so buckle up!
