Overview

When you mention Whitechapel, it’s all about Jack the Ripper. And no wonder, we are talking about one of the most infamous serial killers of all time. But there’s so much more to the story! Join us on this walking tour of London’s East End, where we hear from the voices that were silenced by the Ripper and by history: his victims. We’ll meet these incredibly resilient women and their neighbours as we discover the district that created a monster.
