Startling Terror Tales #10

Dr. Jekyll, a brilliant young medical student tormented by conflicting desires, becomes obsessed with creating a potion to separate his good and evil impulses into two distinct personalities. When his dangerous experiment succeeds, he unleashes Mr. Hyde—a violent, conscience-free entity who begins prowling London's streets while the respectable Dr. Jekyll's reputation hangs in the balance. As Jekyll's friends grow suspicious and Hyde's depravities escalate, the doctor finds himself trapped between the two halves of his fractured self in this 1952 adaptation.

Aergutt, a dwarf traveling with the gypsies, finds himself an outcast—mocked and beaten by his own people, with only the kindness of Zellita offering him solace, even as his heart burns with unspoken love for her. When Zellita pledges herself to another man, Forimand, Aergutt's desperation drives him to a terrible act of violence born from jealousy and the hope that tragedy might finally make her his. What unfolds is a tragedy rooted in misplaced devotion and the cruel consequences of acting on murderous impulse.
