In Coravina, Austria

English · Gothic Fiction, Horror, Dramatic Readings

Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic tale follows Dr. Henry Jekyll, a respected physician whose experiments reveal a darker side of his nature in the form of Mr. Hyde. The story explores the unsettling divide between public respectability and private desire, as Jekyll’s attempts to control his transformation grow increasingly dangerous.

In this radio adaptation, the familiar Gothic premise is shaped for listening through spoken performance and sound, bringing the contrast between Jekyll’s composed world and Hyde’s menace into focus. The subtitle places this recording in Coravina, Austria, while the central drama turns on the consequences of Jekyll’s experiment and the identity he struggles to keep hidden.

The result is a suspenseful, atmospheric story of secrecy, moral conflict, and mounting dread, suited to listeners drawn to classic Gothic fiction and psychological drama.
