Has anyone heard of spring heeled jack?

>has anyone heard of one of the most popular strange people cases in history?
Is this a fucking joke?
Yes do you have any thing New to add to the case?
>>17852007
Didn't until Assassin's Creed.
I didn't realize it was a well known thing,,me and a friend seen something really strange today moving along roof tops and then to trees..so we looked up cases of strange flying people..and this came up
Spring Heeled Jack is the Victorian version of David Blaine or Chriss Angel...
Using a demon familiar

A SPRICKETY SPRAT, SPRING HEELED JACK, AWAYYYY
>>17852007
Yes.
Oddly enough, to my knowledge there hasn't been many horror films based on him (if any).

I have a Shadowrun Decker character named Springheel. I figured it was a fun little nod to my favorite paranormal story.
It's an urban legend based on jack the ripper
>>17852007
Looks like a pansy.
Yeah, from that one quest in ES: Oblivion
>>17852007
he was just some pervert in a costume
>>17853389
yep, even though he was reported nearly half a century before the murders
Saw them at Rutgers University back in 96

They say he could jump really high it was probably made up to scare people or something
Coolest thread topic in some time.
>>17852083
Have you seen the YouTube vids? It's pretty convincing. Interesting in many ways.

>Batman is just spring heeled jack and zorro combined.
>>17852007
Yes its not true
It was a story fabricated by some fraternity brothers or something
>>17854155
Yep. Jakben Imbel.
>>17855346
You again? Fuck off.

Uh uh tell us more lumi-reptilian.

What? Are you new? Yes, yes you are.

Anyways, I think it was a prank by someone, more than likely Marquess of Waterford, coupled with mass hysteria and fantasy. I have a hard time believing Jane Alsop's story.
I think I saw a Johnny quest episode on it back in the late 90s, what a great show that was

Looks like a shitty faggot version of Batman
I get the impression spring heeled jack was a dozen different people. None of whom knew each other and many of whom didn't even intend to be seen as him.

Had a book as a kid that had a story about him in it
>>17857510
So much like the Zodiac Killer.

These both correspond to things I have heard, but the reader should note that when spooky titles are applied to incidents, it becomes difficult to assert a true identity of the perpetrator.
>>17852007
My grandpa lived in Chicago in the 1920s and 30s said that there were spring heeled jack sightings there during that time.
I've never actually read anything about that anywhere else tho.

>>17852007
I learned about him in oblivion
is he a vampire in the real life legend too?
>>17852007
>Has anyone heard of spring heeled jack?
There are people who HAVEN'T?
>>17856269
Most of these events happened early 19th century. I think you're confusing it with something else.
>>17852075
> seen something
You saw something.
>>17855519
>I have a hard time believing Jane Alsop's story.
Surely a woman wouldn't lie....
>>17857596
Batman would just put him in Arkham.
>>17858042
I didn't before I heard about him on the Lore podcast. Then I had a completely different idea of what he looked like before I saw a picture.
Lore is good shit if anyone wants to listen to a good spooky podcast.
>>17852007
Funnily enough I learned about him through TES Oblivion

Zombina and the Skeletones - Springheeled Jack
"Can't you tell from the way I act, that I was born from the blood of Springheeled Jack"
Yup.
I had these neat monster factoid cards when I was a kid, as shown. They introduced me to a lot of less common monsters actually.

The candlejack meme is so unfunny and unoriginal by now, just to spite you, I'm going to finish this whole sent
>>17852007
The mothman was nothing but a big owl and people blew it out to a big monster. It`s always the same, people are a bit crazy.
yes we got Czech version of that here.
He was killing nazis and stuff

About 50% percent of the stuff I hear on Lore I was already aware of, but yeah it's pretty good otherwise for refreshing one's memory and introducing details to cases one's already aware of.
