Ripper Watch: From Hell (2001)
Manage episode 322859864 series 3327363
This week Alice, Helen, Sara and Abigail all got together for our second Ripper Watch episode, a recurring feature discussing the representation of the Whitechapel Murders and "Jack the Ripper" in pop culture. We watched From Hell (2001), and also discussed the (much better) graphic novel it's based on. Topics include Freemasons, the history of lobotomies, laudanum, grapes, and the 1701 Act of Settlement.
This episode discusses murder, sexual assault, drug use and violence against women.
Historical Friction is a podcast about storytelling, pop culture, the past, and why we reenact it.
