From Hell: Jack the Ripper Part One | The Canonical Five

The streets of Whitechapel in the autumn of 1888 were a labyrinth of narrow alleys and hidden corners, cloaked in a chill that seeped into the bone. Beneath the flickering gas lamps, the city pulsed with a restless energy-uneasy, watchful. Lives intersected in the crowded tenements and bustling markets, but an unseen presence moved among them, deliberate and unseen.
In the span of a few months, multiple lives were stolen in acts so gruesome they seemed to defy human comprehension. The details shocked even the most hardened residents of London’s East End, and the name of the killer became a puzzle that no one could solve. A figure without a face, a phantom whose crimes changed the fabric of the city forever.

Cases like the Ripper murders can be incredibly challenging to cover because of the sheer amount of contradictory information out there. That’s why we relied on a variety of sources, including: Jack the Ripper 1888 by Richard Jones, Casebook: Jack the Ripper by Stephen P. Ryder, The Ultimate Jack the Ripper Sourcebook by Stewart P. Evans, and even BBC History Magazine’s article A Big Day in History: Mary Ann Nichols Becomes the First Victim of ‘Jack the Ripper’ (31 August 1888). While no single source can provide all the answers, we’ve worked hard to create an episode that balances the varying accounts. We appreciate you taking the time to engage with it!
