Amazing. This story parallels that of the Craigslist Killer

It's actually kind of eerie, but the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is very similar to the case of the Craigslist Killer. Think about it. Jekyll, of course, is a doctor who turns to his dark side and becomes involved with a woman of ill repute- and ends up killing her. The Craigslist Killer is a medical student who also turns to his more carnal nature, becomes involved with sex industry women and also murders one of them.

Starrbeat presents what's happening.

Robert Louis Stevenson'saccount was actually based on the true story of Dean Brodie, an apparently eminently respectable inhabitant of Edinburgh who was also a manipulative psychopathic killer.
