Meet The Characters

Time Traveller

Gentleman Inventor

The Time Traveller lectures to his weekly dinner guests that time is simply a fourth dimension and demonstrates a tabletop model machine for travelling through the fourth dimension. He reveals that he has built a machine capable of carrying a person through time, and returns at dinner the following week to recount a most remarkable tale.

Morlocks

The Antagonists

After thousands of generations of living without sunlight, the Morlocks have dull grey-to-white skin, chinless faces, large greyish-red eyes with a capacity for reflecting light, and flaxen hair on the head and back.

A Journey Through Time

With time travel possible, where would you go? To the far future or the distant past? H.G. Wells was the pioneer for this, now popular, genre of literature. The idea that someone could travel so far into the future must have been seen as one of the strangest notions at the time of the book's publication.

What is the nature of time? Is it truly the 4th dimension as supposed in this novel? While time travel may never be truly possible (in a feasible fashion), that fact has never stopped the creative minds of writers to imagine the possibility of exploring our own past or seeing what lies ahead.

This novel was published in 1895. You may think the idea of time travel is relatively new, but quite the opposite. I'd like to think that humans have been dreaming about time travel for ages. There's always been that fascination with what is not known.

You need to imagine what you might see here with your own creations! Whether it be your own images, artwork, etc. The options are many and varied.
