Spring-Heeled Jack was a mysterious figure reported throughout the
nineteenth century. He was blamed for a number of violent attacks -
including murder, mainly on young women. His reign of terror
started in London, and spread throughout Great Britain covering the
period 1837 to 1904. One terrifying attack, on the daughter of a
wealthy businessman, was the subject of a Times newspaper report in
1838. This book is based on that report. Jack's bizarre appearance
- huge, bulbous red eyes, pointed ears and claw-like fingers - and
physical peculiarities - his ability to belch flames at random,
into the face of his victims, and his ability to leap great
distances - point to a creature not of this world. He has never
been successfully identified.
