JACK

Welcome to the nightmare of the worlds most notorious serial killer.

London 1888. The local newspaper office receive a letter. It's rushed to the commander in chief. 'Sir! 'Sir! 'You need to see this' Says the overly excited Receptionist. The chief snatches the letter and reads it quietly. 'My god!'' He rushes from his office and into the main working staff area. 'Everybody listen to me' 'This letter is from him'. 'From hell'. 'From The Ripper'. The cheif clears his throat and begins reading the gruesome detail of the letters contents. 'Dear friends at the newspaper'. 'I have killed again tonight but the police are yet to find the body of this w***e'. 'I'm almost certain they won't'. 'I was instructed that my methods of murder were to give me away'. 'So to throw you and the police off of my scent I have done something a little different with my latest piece of art but you'll have to wait until the glorious men and woman of the police discover it'. 'I hope this letter finds you well'. 'Sincerly Jack The Ripper'. The office flies into a frenzy of writing and publishing. The next morning the entire letter is published on the front page with almost everybody in the streets of London reading a copy. The police are on high alert and moving in teams through the dismal eerie streets. Suddenly the bloodcurdling scream of a female echos from out of a nearby ally. Several people and police run to see what is happening and to their dispare on the cold cobblestone ground lays the body of a woman but she is almost unrecognisable. She has two candlesticks stabbed in her eyes, A butchers knife wedged in her throat, Her mouth is stuffed with cake and her lower body looks like its been on an operating table. The police begin moving people away and the very last thing they find is another rolled up in her hand. An officer takes it and it reads. 'Was it the butcher, The baker or the candlestick maker'. 'I do wish you would make up your mind'. 'Sincerly Jack The Ripper'.

I would suggest doing more research on this case. You could have added sooooo much more detail as to what her body would have looked like, that could make it a lot scarier, not to mention specifically mentioning his signatures, most popular one was the clean perfect cut that went ear to ear on their throats. Maybe mention where exactly in London, (whitechaple). no instruments were left with her body. No one would have really cared about a scream, seeing as it's whitechaple in 1888 lol there was always screaming. Nothing would have been seen, since it was in the middle of the night, there were no street lamps in whitechaple, so you would only be able to discover the body in the first light of day. Of course his last victim was discovered in a hotel room, more mutelated Than the rest since he had hours with that body.... Not to mention what was don't to her pelvic area... Oh god. And perhaps use names of who is suspected? Instead of just stating professions. And if your including a letter I would also suggest making sure it's word for word what Jack the Ripper wrote. XD I did a very long short story on this topic, and I got an exceedingly good mark. Not to mention my considerable interest in this case. (Weird I know) hope I have helped. Not that you needed it though.

Hi. I appreciate your feedback on this. However this is written to be a narrative version of the Jack The Ripper conquest and therefore I put things in a more dramatic terminology. There have been many versions of this material written and all reflect the reality of the situation and I am primarily a fiction writer so I wanted to do a version that was somewhat fresh and well...fiction. So I hope your version garnished a lot of attention and I'm certain it's great! This is my version and it's done me okay thus far. Thank you for your feedback again. :)
