Mr. Hyde

I saw a strange man with red hair and a black suit while I was taking a walk. He smiled at me as we passed one another. The gesture is ordinarily rather innocuous, but it sent shivers down my spine.

To be perfectly clear, there was nothing wrong with the man that I could see. He did not say or do anything threatening, nor did I see him at any point before or since.

If you have ever read Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, it was much like the way nobody can say just why the appearance of Mr. Hyde disturbs and upsets them. There was a deeply unnerving air to him, and that was all.
