Summary

The last in our series (for now!) exploring Spring-Heeled Jack entities and other prowling ghosts in the UK. Hear about Springheels, the Derby Ghost, Jack the Ripper, demon jumpers, cloven-hooved beings, and other spectral entities. As the 20th Century dawns, Spring-Heeled Jack turns from a frightening attacker to a Robin Hood-like proto-superhero.
