"The Invisible Man," a science fiction novel by H.G. Wells published in 1897, follows Griffin, an arrogant scientist who discovers the secret of invisibility. Isolating himself in the village of Iping, he conducts strange experiments, but as rumors swirl and his behavior becomes erratic, he reveals his invisibility.

Unable to reverse the effect, Griffin spirals into paranoia, turning to theft and violence. He enlists the help of a reluctant tramp, Thomas Marvel, to carry his stolen research notes. However, Griffin's instability leads Marvel to betray him and escape with the notes.

However, Griffin cannot reverse the process, and, driven by paranoia and a desire for power, he turns to theft and violence. He recruits a reluctant tramp named Thomas Marvel to assist him with his stolen research notes. Ultimately, Griffin's unstable behavior leads Marvel to betray him and flee with the notes.

Driven by paranoia and a desire for power, Griffin turns to theft and violence to survive. He enlists the help of a reluctant tramp named Thomas Marvel to carry his stolen research notes and assist him. However, Griffin's increasingly unstable behavior leads Marvel to betray him and flee with the notes. Griffin, a brilliant but arrogant scientist, discovers a way to make himself invisible. A mysterious stranger, his face entirely covered by bandages and dark glasses, arrives at the quiet English village of Iping during a snowstorm. He takes rooms at the local inn and demands to be left alone, spending his time conducting strange experiments in his room. As rumors and suspicions arise about the nature of his work, the stranger becomes increasingly erratic and ill-tempered.
