The Magician’s Wife

04. Spring-Heeled Jack


Listen Later

In the gas-lit, smog-choked streets of nineteenth-century London, reports start to circulate of a tall figure attacking women, swathed in black, claws glinting from every finger, fleeing the scenes of his crimes by clearing walls in a single leap, and emitting a blood-chilling cackle as he makes his escape. But is he supernatural, demonic, an urban legend? Or might there be a more earthly explanation for this classic Victorian terror? Join Barry and Lora as they explore the incredible story of Spring-Heeled Jack.
