Eugene Marie Chantrelle (1834 in Nantes – 31 May 1878 in Edinburgh) was a French teacher who lived in Edinburgh and who was convicted for the murder of his wife, Elizabeth Dyer. He is claimed to be the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's character Dr Jekyll featured in The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Stevenson met Chantrelle at the home of Victor Richon, Stevenson's old French master. Chantrelle was hanged for his crimes at Calton Prison in Edinburgh.
