- Synopsis
- A strange and reclusive scientist takes a room at a village inn. Griffin keeps his face wrapped in bandages and exhibits peculiar behaviors, such as turning his room into a laboratory, causing a stir among the locals. When he runs out of money and is told he must leave, he accidentally reveals a secret—he's invisible. Driven mad by this condition, Griffin flees to the house of Dr. Kemp, a former medical school colleague. It is only then that Griffin explains how his invisibility resulted from a disastrous experiment. As the town's suspicions grow, Griffin falls further into madness, which leads to tragic consequences. This is an unabridged version of English author H.G. Wells's science-fiction novel, which was first published in 1897.
