What makes a ruthless serial killer from the later half of the 19th century still readable today? Is it the fact that everyone loves a good crime story? Or maybe its the intrinsic human curiosity that draws us. Like the Kennedy assassination, Titanic sinking and the Loch Ness Monster legend there is a great love of mystery today as there was thousands of years ago, to put it frankly, it’s in our DNA.
Now that you’ve read my two cents, why do you think Jack the Ripper is still popular?
