開膛手杰克所殺的妓女Catherine Eddowes的鬼魂-英國鬼故事英語版
真實歷史:1888年9月30日凌晨一點四十五分左右,46歲的妓女凱薩琳·艾道斯(catherine eddowes)被發(fā)現(xiàn)橫尸在主教廣場(mitre square)上。除了同樣被割喉剖腹,腸子甩到右胸外,她還被奪去部分子宮和腎臟。由于巡羅的員警聲稱一點半時這里并無異狀,因而研判死者是在一點半至一點四十五分之間被殺害,并被剖開腹部。兇手行兇手法之利落,讓多數(shù)人認為他可能是專業(yè)的外科醫(yī)生。
mitre square is now surrounded on three sides by modern office blocks and bordered on its south side by the sir john cass foundation school. nothing remains of the victorian square, except a few cobblestones across which people hurry on their way to and from work, not giving a thought that they are walking over the spot where one of london's most infamous crimes occurred.
catherine eddowes was the second victim of the night of sunday 30 september 1888, a night which already had seen the killing of elizabeth stride less than an hour earlier. these two murders are commonly referred to as the "double event" and have been attributed to the serial killer jack the ripper.
it was in the south-west corner of mitre square that the horribly mutilated body of catherine eddowes was found, the fourth victim of "jack the ripper". the body was discovered at 1.45am on the 30th september 1888.local tradition maintains that on the anniversary of the killing, people have occasionally glimpsed catherine's ghostly figure lying upon the spot where her life came to such a tragic and gruesome end. the photograph of mitre square to the right was taken last year during a jack the ripper ghost walk it shows a ghostly white mist.
