In our jaded era, a man who killed five women and disappeared would barely rate a mention in the local newspaper. But in 1888, the unknown creature who committed five horrific murders in the slums of London was such a sensation that even today, millions of people recognize the name "Jack the Ripper." He has been analyzed in nearly a thousand nonfiction books. He has been the subject of endless stories: psychological novels, horror, mystery, even a few science fiction stories. And one Star Trek episode!
Here are thirteen of those stories, by some of the finest mystery and detective writers of their day.
