College Essay Essay, Research Paper

he stranger arrived in Iping on a cold day in February, garbed head to foot in

an ensemble that seemed to come straight from a theatrical wardrobe,

complete with false nose. He took up residence in a private parlor at the

Coach and Horses, and although he paid well and promptly, something about

his demeanor seemed strangely amiss. He ate all of his meals alone, and he hinted

at some sort of vague accident when questioned about the bandages he wore

around his head and face.

After a few unusual encounters with the man, the town of Iping

is abuzz with theories about his situation. Some folks think he

truly is disfigured, while others suspect he may be on the run

from the law. One night the Coach’s owners, Mr. and Mrs.

Hall, see an opportunity to learn more about their curious guest

when they find his bedroom door ajar while he is seemingly out

of the house. But when they start investigating his room, they

are suddenly chased out by what appears to be a flying chair.

Moments later the man himself emerges from the room, which had just been

empty.

The stranger decides to divulge his secret, and he undoes his bandages to

reveal…nothing! The man is not disfigured, he’s invisible. But amidst the confusion

this causes among the townspeople, the local sheriff shows up to arrest the

stranger–invisible or not–for his suspicious activities. The invisible man is forced

to flee, but not before causing a good deal of havoc in Iping. Soon the papers are

rolling off the presses with stories of the strange goings-on in Iping, even as the

invisible man makes his way to Port Stowe. Stung by his treatment at the hands of

the Iping villagers, he is no longer hoping for understanding from his fellow

humans; he only only wants to force cooperation from them as he seeks to restore

himself to visibility.
