In a whimsical twist on the classic tale by RL Stevenson, spoiled young Henrik Jekyll has been left his ancestor Dr Jekyll’s house, laboratory, and — most importantly — secret, life-altering Hyde Potion recipe. Henrik’s curiosity soon leads him down a dark path, unleashing a chaotic alter ego named Eddie. With Eddie's strength and mischief wreaking havoc in the local town, Henrik must confront the consequences of his reckless actions. Can he learn to control his inner Hyde before it’s too late, or will he succumb to the chaos? And what darkness lurks in the foundations of Jekyll Manor itself?
