The gripping conclusion to to Robert Louis Stevenson's legendary horror classic, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde.

What I've done with this final near-hour is either a tour de force or a tour de farce, but either way I thought it was the most entertaining method to interpret it and add another dimension to the tale that remains faithful to the chapter and story. Hopefully it gives it additional drama that is more tuned to what our modern sensibilities think a finale should be. And, despite it being a minor nightmare to proof and murder on my voice, it was a lot of fun!

Dr. Jekyll is revealed to be a true mad scientist in the end, of the calibre of Frankenstein, and I wanted to really bring that out.

You know, you could probably just enjoy this final chapter in isolation, and still get a complete and satisfying story from it.

What do you think of the way I've handled the ending?

I actually started laughing when I was mastering this. It's just so well written, it's almost absurd. I cannot believe how well written this is. It's madness.
