Podcasts about Jack the Ripper

Boz Boorer talks about his life in music, from his earliest memories of Marc Bolan and T. Rex to punk shows in London in the late 70s, The Polecats, and eventually decades on the road and in the studio with Morrissey. Boz talks about touring with Dave Edmunds, working alongside Tony Visconti, Mick Ronson and Steve Lillywhite, and the stories behind some of Morrissey’s most beloved songs: ‘Jack The Ripper’, ‘Speedway’, ‘Scandinavia’, ‘Istanbul’ and ‘I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris’ among them. He gets into the making of Your Arsenal and Vauxhall and I, the stage invasions on those early tours, and why recording a chainsaw made perfect sense for ‘Speedway’. There’s also his recent collaborations with Paul Roland and Andy Ellison, digging through old archive tapes, and life running a record shop in Portugal.

Since Victorian times, people have been obsessed with Jack the Ripper. There are endless volumes full of history about him and the gory deaths of his five victims. What's missing is information about the lives of the women he killed—until now. In this episode from our archives, we sit down with Hallie Rubenhold, social historian and author of the recently published book, The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper. In this eye-opening interview, we discover that, contrary to popular narrative, Jack the Ripper's victims were almost certainly not all prostitutes. Rubenhold has painstakingly reconstructed the previously untold stories of these five women, whose greatest tragedy was not being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but rather being born women in the Victorian era. Instead of focusing on these women's deaths, as virtually all study pertaining to the mystery of Jack the Ripper does, Rubenhold instead focuses on these women's lives, which have been roundly ignored by historians until now. The story of each woman provides a portrait of the underbelly of Victorian London, as well as gives incredible insight into the entire Victorian period, highlighting the vivid contrast between rich and poor and demonstrates how unbelievably precarious life was for women, particularly lower-class women, of the time. If you love true crime and history, don't miss this fascinating interview! Find Hallie at her website or on Instagram. ***The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years!

This week, to enhance our Crime Classics episode from last Thursday, we have a Robert Bloch story that was talked about in that episode called, “Yours Truly, Jack the Ripper,” presented on the Molle Mystery Theater. This story takes the infamous killer out of Victorian London and drops him into modern-day Chicago… with a twist. What if Jack the Ripper never died? What if he's been staying alive all these years through something darker? The story follows Sir Guy Hollis, a man obsessed with tracking the killer, as his search leads him closer and closer to the truth.

In 1888, the streets of Whitechapel became the hunting ground for the most infamous killer in history. Five women were murdered, a city descended into panic, and a name written in red ink turned a shadow in the fog into a legend. But the story of Jack the Ripper isn't just about the man who vanished into the East End. It's about the women he killed, the society that failed them, and a mystery that still refuses to stay buried. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Edward Buckley was a violent East End tough whose life unfolded in the same streets and shadows as the Whitechapel murders. Born into a rough, crime-entangled family, he grew up in a world of poverty, street gangs, and routine violence -where assaults, intimidation, and desperation were part of daily life in 1880s London. My guest is Jonathan Tye, author of "Jack the Ripper? Edward Buckley: East End Thug and Gang Member". His book revisits the Whitechapel murders of 1888 and the years around them, bringing the focus back to the neighborhoods where they happened and the kinds of men who lived there. Could Buckley, a local thug with a documented history of brutalizing women, offer a clearer way to understand the events known as the Autumn of Terror?

This week, we step into the foggy streets of Victorian London with Crime Classics, and possibly the most intriguing real-life unsolved mysteries of all time, “Good Evening, My Name Is Jack the Ripper.” John Tefteller, along with researcher Karl Schadow and Bernard Herrmann biographer Steven C. Smith, takes a closer look at the Whitechapel murders, focusing not just on the crimes, but on the lives of the victims and the fear that gripped the city. Along the way, the discussion highlights the often-overlooked people behind the scenes: sound effects artists, assistant directors, and others who helped create that immersive atmosphere.

Hotellet hadde lydtette rom, hemmelige passasjer, gasskamre og krematorieovner. Holmes inviterte enslige reisende til å bo på hotellet, hvorpå han torturer og drepte dem før han løste opp kroppene deres i syre eller begravde dem i kalkgroper. En teori er at Holmes i 1888 dro på tur til London og dermed ville hatt muligheten til å begå Whitechapel-mordene. Selv om Jack lot sine torturerte ofres kropper ligge fremme for verden å se, gjorde HH Holmes alt han kunne for å skjule sine forbrytelser. Man kan forklare dette som en typisk eskalering av hans modus operandi.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theserialkillerpodcastWebsite: https://www.theserialkillerpodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theskpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/serialkillerpodX: https://x.com/serialkillerpod Hosted on Acast.

We are back and are discussing Jack the Ripper

"Kjære sjef, jeg hører stadig at politiet har tatt meg, men de vil ikke fikse meg ennå. Jeg har ledd når de ser så smarte ut og snakker om at de er på rett spor. Den spøken om Leather Apron ga meg virkelig latterkrampe. Jeg er ute etter ludere og jeg skal ikke slutte å skjære dem opp før jeg blir knepet. Storartet arbeid var den siste jobben. Jeg ga damen ingen tid til å skrike. Hvordan kan de ta meg nå. Jeg elsker arbeidet mitt og vil begynne igjen. Dere vil snart høre fra meg med mine morsomme små leker. Jeg sparte litt av det skikkelige røde greiene i en ingefærølflaske fra den siste jobben for å skrive med, men det ble tykt som lim og jeg kan ikke bruke det. Rød blekk er bra nok, håper jeg. Ha ha. På den neste jobben jeg gjør skal jeg klippe av damens ører og sende dem til politibetjentene bare for moro skyld, ikke sant. Hold dette brevet tilbake til jeg har gjort litt mer arbeid, så gi det ut rett etterpå. Kniven min er så fin og skarp, jeg vil komme i gang med arbeidet med en gang hvis jeg får sjansen. Lykke til. Deres oppriktige Jack the RipperIkke bry deg om at jeg bruker yrkesnavnetPS Var ikke god nok til å poste dette før jeg fikk all det røde blekket av hendene mine, forbannet være det. Ingen flaks ennå. De sier jeg er lege nå. Ha ha"Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theserialkillerpodcastWebsite: https://www.theserialkillerpodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theskpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/serialkillerpodX: https://x.com/serialkillerpod Hosted on Acast.

This week on The Shiver Show, we take you on a wander down the foggy streets of Victorian London with The Lodger (1948) - a chilling episode from the legendary Suspense series.Set in the working-class district of Whitechapel, fear grips the city as a shadowy killer known only as “The Avenger” stalks the night. Into this atmosphere of dread comes a mysterious new tenant—Mr Sleuth, played (and narrated) by Robert Montgomery. Quiet, intensely religious, and more than a little unsettling, Mr Sleuth arrives with few possessions, a stack of identical suits, and a habit of quoting scripture. Jeanette Nolan delivers a strong performance as Ellen Bunting, the wary landlady, while Peggy Weber plays her step-daughter Daisy, whose naivety adds to the tension. Lucien Moraweck's haunting music underscores this dread tale.Written by Marie Belloc Lowndes, an English author and suffragette, The Lodger is a masterclass in suspense.Thank you for listening!   If you like the show, please share us with your friends and family AND give us a review!

Ifølge dem som kjente henne, var Mary Kelly den yngste og mest attraktive av Ripperens ofre. Hun ble født rundt 1863 i Limerick i Irland, noe som gjorde henne 25 år gammel da hun ble drept. Hun var høy – rundt 170 cm – og hadde blondt hår, blå øyne og lys hud.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theserialkillerpodcastWebsite: https://www.theserialkillerpodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theskpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/serialkillerpodX: https://x.com/serialkillerpod Hosted on Acast.

Jack's Back in The Ripper (1985)! With his spirit now resurrected by a mafioso crackerjack ring, Jack The Ripper goes on a gory killing spree, setting his sights on students, faculty, and fringe hangers-on of a film school studying true crime in cinema - entrails will spill and mustaches will be twirled! We discuss Tom Savini's infamous "starring" role, whether or not this was shot on video (16mm?), ring this/ring that, and much, much more! Clarification: it was shot on video!

This is not just another Jack the Ripper book.

For two years, a knife-wielding predator terrorized the women of London — but when authorities finally made an arrest, the evidence was shakier than anyone wanted to admit. "The Monster" terrorized fashionable women by slashing their clothing and flesh, leading to a sensational manhunt that captured a suspect – but was he really the culprit?*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: In March 1788 Maria Smythe was attacked by a stranger who uttered some foul words, stabbed her, then ran. She survived, but was only the first of more than fifty women to suffer the same in London. This wasn't Jack The Ripper – he wouldn't come along for another 100 years. This was the Monster of London. (The Monster of London) *** On his first day walking to the bus stop alone before school, Etan Patz was abducted – and became one of the first children whose face ended up on a milk carton.

(The Sinister Left-Handers) *** In 1827, young Maria Marten slipped into a red barn to meet her secret lover. It was the last time she would be seen alive. (The Red Barn Murder) *** It sounds like the makings of a paranormal slasher film – a woman is followed home one day by a paranormal entity – an entity that is angry because it used to be a human that was murdered. (The Haunting of Leah Lewis) *** Imagine your business is failing and you need to drum up customers, so you hire a consultant. “No problem,” he says. “All I need is a few things to get started… do you happen to have have any problems chopping off your closest living relative's hand?” Welcome to Muti magic that some say still takes place even today. (Murderous Muti Magic) *** Edward Howard Bell was a murderer on the run and evaded capture for close to twenty years.

For over a decade, a shadow hunted the lovers' lanes of Florence, striking on the darkest nights and disappearing without a trace. Each time police believed the killer was finally caught, the murders began again. This is the story of the Monster of Florence—where the most dangerous mistake wasn't the killer, but the moment everyone thought he was gone.

Με το βλέμμα του ατενίζει μπροστά τον Κίτρινο Ποταμό. Η ανυπομονησία του χτυπάει κόκκινο.Το ελαφρώς σκουριασμένο ποδήλατό του τον οδηγεί στην όχθη.Τα βαμμένα με αίμα χέρια του παλεύουν να ανοίξουν τις σακούλες που κρύβει τα μοναδικά του τρόπαια.Τα μάτια του γυαλίζουν όταν αντικρίζουν τα κομμένα ανθρώπινα μέλη.Θυμάται τον τρόπο που τις δολοφόνησε και ξαναζεί στο μυαλό του τις κινήσεις.Κινήσεις που για 3 δεκαετίες θα σπείρουν τον τρόμο.

The latter part of the Victorian era bore witness to a series of unexplained female dismemberment cases that plagued London for a period of thirty years. All the cases remain unsolved and only two women were ever identified. Today, the circumstances surrounding these deaths have largely become a footnote in history, dwarfed in attention by their much larger cousin, Jack the Ripper.In this, Suzanne Huntington's groundbreaking exploration of the subject, we see the first in-depth analysis into all the cases, where 150 years of assumption and misinformation is stripped back and the evidence re-examined, allowing the reader to comprehend not only the complexity of the cases themselves but also the background and context of the investigations. THE THAMES TORSO MURDERS: Fact or Fiction—Suzanne Huntington

Today's episode from the archives presents a lively conversation between Simon and Tom, covering various crime cases and their historical and forensic significance. They discuss recent personal updates, including Tom's hoarse voice from a walking football match. The main topics include notable criminal cases like Rodney Alcala, the 'Dating Game Killer,' and his impact on forensic science and social media exploitation. Another focus is on the infamous John Christie and the wrongful execution of Timothy Evans, highlighting the importance of corroborating evidence in legal cases. Attention is also given to the atrocities of Fred and Rosemary West with insights into the challenges of identifying missing persons.

Why the Jack the Ripper legend is completely useless.Get ready to hear the truth behind the headlines with social historian Hallie Rubenhold. Her groundbreaking book, The Five, challenges everything you thought you knew about the case by focusing on the victims, not the killer.Hallie explains why the endless speculation about Jack the Ripper's identity is "useless" and built on "pure mythology". As a trained museum curator, she argues that applying modern DNA testing is impossible due to tainted evidence and a lack of provenance for objects. The real "restorative justice," she argues, comes from understanding the lives of the women themselves.Discover the shocking reality of the five women's lives, which were far more complex than the common "prostitute" label suggests. Hallie reveals that only two of the women, Elizabeth Stride and Mary Jane Kelly, were known to engage in sex work. You'll learn:Polly Nichols was the daughter of a blacksmith who left her husband and children after they secured a home in one of London's first social housing buildings.Annie Chapman came from a surprisingly middle-class background, with a father who served in the Queen's lifeguard. Her life was tragically impacted by her struggle with alcoholism.Elizabeth Stride was born in Sweden and was known to be a "con artist".Catherine Eddowes came from a large family and had a difficult, nomadic existence, traveling the country selling ballads with her partner.Mary Jane Kelly, the youngest victim, may have had a different name and was said to be a skilled artist—an accomplishment reserved for the middle class at the time.Hallie argues that the Victorian press and police unfairly labelled these women based on moral judgment, and that this same bias influenced investigations much like it did with the Yorkshire Ripper case decades later. The true value of history, she says, is not to romanticize the past but to "shock" us with the "ugly shit" of truth.Join us and rage against the myths that have long obscured the truth.

Sometimes traditional methods of murder investigation fail and law enforcement seeks unconventional ways to solve a crime. One of those unorthodox ways is asking psychics for guidance. And there have been crimes that have been solved with the help of psychics. The Jack the Ripper case was never solved, but a psychic was brought in to try to help. Most people have probably never heard this piece of the mysterious case. But this psychic just may have solved the crime.

Jack the Ripper: UPDATE episode, Jack the Ripper has remained history's most infamous unknown killer — a shadow slipping through the fog of Victorian London with no name, no face, and no trial. But in recent years, that mystery has been shaken by a single object: a bloodstained shawl said to have been recovered from the murder scene of Catherine Eddowes in 1888.In this update episode, we revisit the Ripper case with fresh eyes, breaking down the controversial DNA testing performed on that shawl and the explosive claim that it finally identifies the killer. Scientists reported finding genetic material consistent with both the victim and a long-suspected suspect — Aaron Kosminski, a Polish immigrant and barber who was on police radar at the time of the murders. Headlines quickly declared the case “solved.”But is it really?We walk through how the DNA was recovered, what type of DNA was actually tested, and why that distinction matters more than most people realize. We also dig into the biggest red flags: the uncertain history of the shawl itself, the limits of mitochondrial DNA, and the serious concerns raised by geneticists and historians alike. Can DNA from a 130-year-old fabric truly hold up as proof? Or are we looking at an intriguing clue that's being oversold as a final answer?Has Jack the Ripper finally been solved? www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

Jon Herold and Zak Paine take Baseless Conspiracies on a dark and fascinating ride through hidden history and modern mystery. The show opens with breaking details on a plane crash in Venezuela tied to trafficking and cartel networks, then quickly spirals into deeper waters as the hosts connect historical and modern psyops. They revisit the story of Jack the Ripper, suggesting his gruesome murders may have been an early intelligence operation tied to Freemasonry and the British elite, using terror and media manipulation as tools of control. From there, Jon and Zak dive into today's equivalent psyops: human trafficking cover-ups, government corruption, and the controlled rollout of UFO and disclosure narratives. They explore how history repeats through patterns of deception, how fear, secrecy, and technology are weaponized to steer collective consciousness. Balancing sharp research with humor and speculation, the duo exposes the eerie overlap between Victorian London and the 21st-century Deep State, where nothing is coincidence and every shadow hides a story.

**Discussion beings at 5:10**In the fall of 1888, London was a booming metropolis under economic strain due to the massive influx up immigrants and refugees.  Whitechapel, an area in the East End, was an overcrowded neighborhood with poor employment and dire economic conditions.  As a result, many women were forced into casual prostitution to survive - and it was many of these women who fell victim to an unknown serial killer lurking in the dark, shadowed alleyways.  The killer was named "Jack the Ripper", either a self proclaimed nickname or one coined by the press, but beyond that alias the killer's identity remains a secret even 130 years later.  For more than a century, whispers have persisted that the Ripper murders were not the work of a lone madman, but part of a deeper conspiracy.  Theories have pointed to royal cover-ups, Masonic plots, and a police force accused of burying the truth.  This week, as we approach the end of True Crimeber - we are discussing one last British mystery - the story of Jack the Ripper and the conspiracy theories related to his…or her… potential identity.  Send us a textSupport the showTheme song by INDA
