Unmasking Jack the Ripper
1 votes
The name Jack the Ripper conjures up vivid images, of fogbound Victorian alleyways where a sinister figure stalks the night in search of his unsuspecting prey. His name is famous throughout the world, and yet nobody knows for certain who he was, or even what became of him. This truly atmospheric drama/documentary is a journey back to 1888 when the Whitechapel Murderer s reign of terror sent waves of revulsion and horror coursing through Victorian London. Best selling author Richard Jones (History Channel and From Hell DVD Documentary) takes the viewer on a journey with the Victorian Police as they race against time to catch the murderer before he kills again. Interviews with leading Ripper expert Paul Begg and historian Lindsay Siviter deliver the latest accurate information concerning this fascinating case...
