Many books have been written about Jack the Ripper, but none have concluded with undeniable proof and evidence that leads to positive identification of the most elusive criminal throughout history, that is... until now! In Dr. H. H. Holmes and the Whitechapel Ripper, you will be introduced to a man who not only matches the many eyewitness descriptions left behind in Stockholm's case file reports, you will also investigate those (confidential) reports and recognize the conspiracy to hide an American physician's identity as the Ripper who stalked the streets of London in 1888. Furthermore, expert handwriting analysis linking the physician to the original Ripper letters further confirms his guilt. The doctor, later identified as a diabolic serial killer, having motive, and more importantly, having residence in Whitechapel, voyaged between America and her mother country England became the epitome of Evil Incarnate. As you follow the footsteps of Herman Webster Mudgett a.k.a. Dr. Henry Howard "H. H." Holmes, from his bizarre and unusual childhood through his academic years at the University of Michigan College of Medicine, where he learned the art of articulating skeletons, to the streets of Chicago where Dr. Holmes honed his skills as a con man and scam artist extraordinaire. You will discover how Dr. Holmes constructed a monument of a hotel specifically to accommodate the mad doctor's blood thirst. Find out what led to Dr. Holmes, the most monstrous creation to have come out of the nineteenth-century Victorian era, labeled as the first "serial killer." From the dark foggy overcrowded corridors of London to the grand spectacle of the 1893 Columbian Exposition/World's Fair held in Chicago, you will observe Dr. H. H. Holmes' exploits side-by-side with Jack the Rippers infamous killings. All doubt will be removed. All fiction will be set aside. You will become a member of the jury.
