The story is about a scientist named Griffin. He had been discovering
ways which could make a man invisible and finally swallowed certain
rare drugs that made him invisible. He was first noticed by two boys in
staircase of a house where they could just see his footsteps and started
following it. They follow it until the footsteps are fainter and cannot be
seen. First, as he is feeling cold he enters a mall for some warmth. After
the stores shut down, he decides to wear some warm clothes and eat
something.

a restaurant, he eats cold meat and some coffee. Later he goes to a
grocery store and eats sweets and drinks wine. He then falls asleep on a
pile of quilts. He then wakes up in the morning when some of the store
assistants had seen him and started chasing him. He quickly threw away
all the clothes he was wearing and became invisible again. Then he
started roaming around again without any clothes in the cold winters of
London.
