  • JTR suspect in Brighton??

    I was watching one of these true-life paranormal shows and they had a fellow named "Silas the Ghostwalker" in Brighton who was leading the camera around and pointing out landmarks. My ears perked up he stated a particular house was where "the man suspected of being Jack the Ripper" had once lived.

    Um, does anyone know who this Brighton suspect might be?? I haven't heard that, I don't think...

      Ah, thank you. I haven't read up on this one much.

          Ivor Edwards has a weird theory that D'Onston murdered the famous paranormal investigator Edmund Gurney in Brighton in June 1888.

          Gurney died of a chloroform overdose, but whether it was suicide, or an accident was never resolved.

            ^Thanks for that, Rjpalmer. Very interesting.

            I did a quick websearch and found "Silas" is an actor employee at Brighton's Ghostwalk of the Lanes. They covered eight haunted and murder houses, but didn't give details on "Brighton's connection to Jack-the-Ripper."
