The killer refered to himself by several different names, Jack The Ripper and Saucy Jack are just a couple. He obviously had a flare for the dramatic. Jack The Ripper has become almost legend thanks in part to that 'oh so appropriated' name.

How did Jack the Ripper sign his name?

While 100s of letters claiming to be from Jack the Ripper were given to the authorities, we don't know that any of them were actually written by Jack the Ripper. Some letters are signed "Jack the Ripper," some are signed "Leather Apron" (which is what the murderer was often called before the name "Jack the Ripper" became popular), one is signed "Catch me when you can Mishter Lusk".....On and on and on.In short, no one knows which, if any, was the real signature.There is a book of these letters available if you would like to learn more. It includes transcripts and pictures.

How did Jack the Ripper help the popularity of Sherlock Holmes?

Sherlock Holmes was introduced in A Study in Scarlet (1887), followed by The Sign of Four in 1890, but didn't really take hold of the public's imagination until Strand magazine, newly founded in 1891, published a series of short stories called "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes." From that point on the public couldn't get enough of Holmes and his always reliable confidant, John H. Watson, a retired military doctor. During the 71 days in 1888 that Jack the Ripper killed 5 prostitutes in Whitechapel, the police did not have the detective skills that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about in his Sherlock Holmes stories. This made Sherlock Holmes the hero in those days.

What did Jack The Ripper do his victims?

The crimes of Jack The Ripper remain some of the most brutal in criminal history. Overkill is a gross understatement when speaking of London's most notorious killer. With few exceptions, his victims throat's were cut, several victims were almost decapitated, then they were stabbed, cut open and disembowelled, and mutilated. Some victims were missing internal organs, which is not uncommon for serial killers to take some kind of trophy from their victims as a way to relive the murder over and over again. JTR's crimes were sexual in nature, yet there was no sign of sexual assault on the bodies. Even in the 21st century where serial murder has become almost common, Jack The Ripper is probably the most recognized serial killer of all time.


What made Jack the Ripper start to kill?

In the year 1888 the term 'serial killer' was over a century in the future. Very little was known about this kind of murder. So it's not totally surprising that the Ripper was never caught. We know much more about serial murder in the wake of Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer. Jack The Ripper's crimes were sexual in nature reguardless that there was no sign of actual rape. This killer had an overwhelming desire to control his victims. When this man attacked he was in a frenzy, evident in the 'overkill' of the victims bodies. But the bottom line was power. Power and control are the driving force for most serial killers. And they were for the Ripper also.
