At the same time Jack the Ripper was active, just down the road in West Ham, a series of mysterious disappearances left the local community in terror. A sad discovery made in an empty property solved one of the cases but two more still remained and then, a mysterious parcel turned up in North London...

Today on Macabre London, we uncover the West Ham Vanishings and the murder of Amelia Jeffs.
