The Whitechapel murders, also known as the Autumn of Terror, were a series of murders of eleven women, mostly prostitutes, committed in the Whitechapel borough in London during the 19th century. It is widely believed that the notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper was responsible for these gruesome crimes.

History

By the return of the Assassin initiate Jack in his training in India with the Master Assassins Jacob and Evie Frye, he had developed an extremist view of the Creed and usurped control of Jacob's gang the Rooks. In retaliation, Jacob sent other initiates, formerly prostitutes, to stop Jack's operations. However, Jack defeated them through mutilation and therefore gained his pseudonym "Jack the Ripper".
