Here's a few freaky coincidences between the serial killings in Ipswich and a certain quintet of killings in the East End of London a little over 100 years ago...
- five victims each
- one of the Ipswich victims shares a surname with one of Jack the Ripper's victims
- the officer in charge of the Ipswich investigation is called Gull
Eddie Campbell, the artist of the graphic novel From Hell, has also pointed out this strange syncronicity (which is made even stranger when you realise that, in From Hell, Alan Moore made a big deal of names and details reoccurring in the Ripper case...).
Isn't it strange how these things work sometimes?
