H.G. Wells 
Island of Doctor Moreau 

A man is discovered adrift in the wreckage of a boat, babbling of horrors scarcely imaginable…this is his story. They say that terror is a disease…A shipwrecked man finds himself, after various twists of Fate, on a lonely tropical island. From a locked enclosure the cries of animals in pain can be heard, and there is a stink of chemicals in the air. Bestial faces stare out of the forests and grotesque, misshaped creatures move in the gloom. In this island paradise, the horrific experiments of the infamous Doctor Moreau will reach their inevitable conclusion.
