The untold story of Jekyll and Hyde

DramaHorrorThriller

A housemaid falls in love with Dr. Jekyll and his darkly mysterious counterpart, Mr. Hyde.

VIBE

A suffocatingly atmospheric descent into Victorian dread. It's a brooding, melancholic mood piece, exploring the dark side of obsession and forbidden desire within the confines of a grand, decaying estate. The tension simmers beneath a polished, gothic surface.
