Episode: Demon of the Belfry: Theo Durrant
Description: Just seven years after the horrific Whitechapel murders, the startling violence of "The Demon of the Belfry" killings prompted immediate comparisons to Jack the Ripper. Contrary to the Ripper, however, Durrant targeted young middle-class ladies by luring them into the church where they all worshipped, raping, and killing them.
