Amongst so much death, darkness and despair in Whitechapel, London the murders of five women during the autumn of 1888 sent shockwaves across the world that are being felt to this very day. The perpetrator, or perpetrators, who took the lives of these five was never brought to justice.
He simply vanished into the darkness.
You are about to embark on a journey with us to go find him. So grab your gas lamp and come along with us, as we seek justice for Polly, for Annie, for Elizabeth, for Catherine and for Mary Jane. But keep the light close, and guard your heart.
As we enter the abyss together, perhaps it's appropriate to quote Dante's words scrawled on the gates of hell.
"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."
