Question: what is the plot of the invisible man

title: The Invisible Man
text: A mysterious man , Griffin , arrives at the local inn of the English village of Iping , West Sussex , during a snowstorm . The stranger wears a long - sleeved , thick coat and gloves ; his face is hidden entirely by bandages except for a fake pink nose ; and he wears a wide - brimmed hat . He is excessively reclusive , irascible , and unfriendly . He demands to be left alone and spends most of his time in his rooms working with a set of chemicals and laboratory apparatus , only venturing out at night . While Griffin is staying at the inn , hundreds of strange glass bottles ( that he calls his luggage ) arrive . Many local townspeople believe this to be very strange . He becomes the talk of the village with many theorizing as to his origins .
