 The Invisible Man
The novel begins in a town called Iping,
where Griffin arrives at a local inn called
The Coach and Horses. Griffin does not
want anyone to know of his invisibility, and
therefor wears large clothes that cover his
whole body, as well as goggles and
bandages that cover his whole face. The
owner of the inn, Mrs. Hall, notices the
odd apparel and inquires about it. The
reader learns quickly, however, that Griffin
likes to keep to himself and does not
entertain Mrs. Hall with reason for his
bandages and goggles. He informs her that
he is an investigative reporter and has
supplies that need to be shipped to the inn.
To his dismay, she informs him that they
would not arrive until the following day.
When his possessions do finally arrive, they
consist mostly of bottles and beakers. What
he does with them is unknown to the rest of
the town due to his extreme level of privacy
and seclusion. Within only a few days of
 arrive in Iping, Griffin breaks into the
house of Mr. Bunting, who is the town
vicar. Although Mr. Bunting hears Griffin,
he is unable to see him as Griffin is
completely naked, making him entirely
invisible. That same morning following the
robbery, the inn keepers notice Griffin’s
door is open and they enter the room.
They notice that Griffin’s only clothes were
on the floor, but Griffin was nowhere to be
seen. As they are snooping through the
room, inanimate objects begin to leap at
them, eventually pushing them out of the
room. Later, Mr. and Mrs. Bunting
confront Griffin regarding the incident and
demand rent money. Griffin eventually
reveals to the townspeople that he is
invisible. It is also learned that Griffin had
been the thief, but when the police try to
capture Griffin, he strips off his clothes and
runs away. Soon after escaping the town,
Griffin runs into a bum by the name of Mr.
Marvel. At first, Mr. Marvel believes he is
 hearing spirits and is scared. Griffin
convinces Mr. Marvel that he is indeed
invisible and forces Mr. Marvel to assist
him. Together, they return to Iping and
The Coach and Horses where Griffin steals
some clothes while Mr. Marvel gets
Griffin’s belongings. After the robbery, Mr.
Marvel tries to run away from Griffin and
tell the police what had happened. Mr.
Marvel retreats to an inn in the town of
Burdock. Griffin tries to break into the inn
to get Marvel, but instead ends up getting
shot and badly injured. Griffin finds a
nearby house to break into to doctor his
injuries. The house turns out to belong to
Dr. Kemp, who Griffin had coincidentally
gone to medical school with. Griffin gives
insight into his life leading up until the time
he turned himself invisible. He lists events
and circumstances that led to him turning
himself invisible. Griffin also explains to
Dr. Kemp that he had planned to try and
make himself visible again. Since that had
 failed, Griffin says he now plans on
beginning a €Reign of Terror€, where he
would terrorize the entire country. Griffin
desires for Dr. Kemp to help him, but
Kemp realizes that Griffin is crazy and has
no intention of helping him. Instead, Kemp
alerts the police. When an officer arrives,
Griffin beats up both Kemp and the officer
and fleas the scene. Griffin decides that
Kemp will now be the first person he kills
during his Reign of Terror, and
conveniently leaves a note for Kemp letting
him know his plan. Kemp then devises a
plan to capture the Invisible Man. While
the plan is being delivered by one of
Kemp’s servants, Griffin attacks her and
steals the plans. Later, Griffin breaks into
Kemp’s house yet again, this time to attack
him. Kemp runs from his home to town.
There he alerts a man of what is going on.
People in the town realize what is
happening, and when Griffin attempts to
kill Kemp, the townspeople beat Griffin to
death. There are several themes that can be
derived from the novel. However, the most
relevant appears to be the theme of
intolerance. Clearly, being invisible made
Griffin different from everyone assumed
the worst of him and reject him as a person
who needs help. Instead of trying to
understand the situation and attempt to
help Griffin, the townspeople simply made
the situation worse. Eventually Griffin can
no longer withstand the rejection, which
causes his already fragile mental state to
break down, leaving him feeling so much
hate for everyone, to the point where he
comes up with his Reign of Terror idea.
Another theme is rational, logical thinking.
Many characters, whether it be the
townspeople or Griffin, display a lack of
reasonable thought process. As previously
mentioned, the townspeople don’t give
much thought to what they will do to
Griffin; they simply want him gone and out
of their hair. Griffin also doesn’t seem to
 make the smart choice when it comes to
how he handles his invisibility. Instead of
taking credit for creating a substance that
turns him invisible, he tries to hide and
undo it. Had he made it a positive thing
instead of a shameful thing to hide, he may
have been more successful in life.

conclusion, The Invisible Man is a book

that success to truly capture my attention
and certainly it stand out in comparison to
other novels that I have read. also, it does
contain a unique story plot as well as
themes and morals that can be learned
from if one takes the time to study and
apply them to everyday life.
