About this episode
We dive into the eerie legend of Spring Heeled Jack, a mysterious figure reported to have terrorized the streets of Victorian England with his supernatural jumping ability and terrifying attacks. Was Jack a paranormal being, an extraterrestrial, or simply a man in a suit? We also examine Spring Heeled Jack's evolution from a feared villain to a heroic character in Penny Dreadfuls, along with a discussion on potential suspects and the creature's lasting impact.
