Perhaps the most interesting aspect of Mr. Hyde to discuss is his death. We aren’t really sure at the end how Mr. Hyde died. Well, suicide, you say, but who committed the suicide? We know that Hyde is afraid of death (and probably the Hell which, according to Victorian England, awaits him), and that the threat of suicide is Jekyll’s one weapon against him. So one would think Jekyll somehow killed himself and Hyde right after writing out his tale. That’s the easy explanation.
