Across October and early November 1888, when 'Jack the Ripper' slayed several women in the East End of London, a smaller and largely forgotten sexual sadist was attacking women in Soho in the West End. Masked using a series of baffling distractions, his crimes were made possible owing to the fevered frenzy in the midst of a mini media mania committed in the Ripper's shadow. But who was he, was it a hoax, or did he even exist? For those fascinated by Jack the Ripper, here's an interesting side story about a crazed sadist who committed a shocking crime spree in West London, just three miles from Whitechapel, and possibly used Jack the Ripper's crimes to cover his own.

  • Date: Friday 5th of October 1888 to Sunday 4th of November 1888.
  • Location: several across Soho/Fitzrovia/Bloomsbury.
  • Victims: 7 (Eliza Smyth, ‘Swiss Annie’, Jayne Jones, Emma Jewson, Alice or Anna Dedmun, ‘Minnie’ Jones and Eliza Shad)
  • Culprits: ?
  • Method of death: strangulation and mutilation
