Overview

Now using a radio transmitter and receiver so you won’t miss any of this amazing story.

Numbers are strictly limited so you will not be following 35 or 40 people. We start the adventure at Whitechapel Station because that's where Jack the Ripper started.

With the help of the FBI Special Agent John Douglas's 1988 profile of Jack the Ripper and Scotland Yard's 2008 geographical profile you will explore the Jack the Ripper mystery from his first unsolved murder in Buck's Row to his last in Dorset Street.

You will discover the victims' story. Who they were. Why they were targeted. How they were killed so swiftly and silently.

It's a truly fascinating story that goes beyond the cliche of the toff in his top hat and opera cape seeking his next victim among the raddled fourpenny whores of Whitechapel.

Blanketed by fog, London was 'The Big Smoke' home to a silent and invisible serial killer we call Jack the Ripper.

Brick Lane

Brick Lane is of course the curry capital of Great Britain but this is also the eastern boundary of where all five victims lived at the the time of the murders. Thrawl Street which ran from Brick Lane to Commercial Street where Polly Nichols stayed at Wilmott's Lodging House. And Flower and Dean Street where the third and fourth victims lived and also where Scotland Yard believe Jack the Ripper was living. And a stone's throw from Brick Lane is where Annie Chapman, the second victim, was found murdered. More CSI and a second suspect who fits both a Scotland Yard geographical profile and also a profile created by the FBI.
