The Tempest certainly can be said to apply to Moriarty the Patriot. Not only is having William speak it a good indication of his education (whether it came from his stolen identity as a Moriarty or from his street child days in the abandoned library), it also espouses his philosophy of English society at the end of the 19th century. Hell must be empty indeed if the aristocracy is to be likened to devils, for they run rampant in a world he s bound and determined to change. There s certainly a delicious irony to him speaking the line while his red eyes gleam out from beneath his black hood, which must make him look like a true devil to the men he s confronting, but it s also a nice nod to an element of Ripperology, the notorious “From Hell” letter. While there s some debate (as with all things Jack the Ripper) as to whether the letter is authentic or not, it has become inextricably associated with the murderer as part of the lore. And if, as Shakespeare said, Hell is in ....
BBC News Published image captionThe six-storey building has a guide price of £685,000 A Whitechapel museum dedicated to the notorious Victorian serial killer Jack the Ripper is to be sold at auction. The six-storey building, on Cable Street, has a guide price of £685,000, and does not come with the grisly artefacts. The Ripper, who murdered and mutilated at least five women, has never been identified. When it opened six years ago, the museum was criticised for glamorising violence against women. The property is described by Auction House London as a well-located mid terrace with potential for redevelopment . The successful buyer will have access to rooms decorated with a Ripper theme, as well as crime scene reconstructions and a Victorian mortuary chamber. ....
The name Jack the Ripper originated in a letter written by an individual claiming to be the murderer that was later disseminated in the media. However, the letter is widely believed to have been a hoax and may have been written by journalists in an attempt to heighten interest in the story and increase their newspapers circulation. After more than a century of speculation, rumour and legend about the killer, ten years ago historians ploughed through census records to gain insight into the lives of the women he targeted. Studies of the 1881 census showed that far from being the young, lifelong prostitutes that modern cinema portrays, the victims were actually often older and married with children. ....
Count Dracula was inspired by one of the suspects believed to be Jack the Ripper, an author has claimed in a new book. Andy Struthers, 54, rubbishes conventional theories that Bram Stoker s vampire was based on feared Romanian ruler Vlad the Impaler and has spent 10 years researching the character s genesis. Early research concluded it could be an Anglican priest from Devon named Sabine Baring-Gould. But he now believes Dracula to be based on convicted criminal Francis Tumblety, who some historians believe to be Jack the Ripper. Francis Tumblety (left) was known to have been in the Whitechapel area during the notorious spree of killings in 1888, nine years before Dracula was published.
