                    Griffin, an eccentric scientist discovered a rare drug. This could make a naked man
                    invisible. He was not liked by his landlord. He decided to take revenge on him. One day he
                    set his landlord's house on fire. Then he consumed some rare drugs and pulled off his
                    clothes. Now, he could see everyone but none could see him. He was safe from being
                    caught. But he was without clothes and it was very cold. He passed the night in a London
                    store. He stole goods and money from the store. Then he went to a village called Iping. He
                    stayed at an inn. He stole money from clergy man's desk. A policeman named Jaffers was
                    called. A strange fight took place. Griffin took off his bandages, his glasses and his hat.
                    Now, he looked helpless. People were horrified. Griffin hit the policeman he got free and
                    ran away
