The original 1846 'penny dreadful' that launched a timeless legend. A grotesque tale of murder, mystery, and culinary horror on the streets of London.Credited to Thomas Peckett Prest, this is the visceral serial that introduced the ultimate partnership in crime.On Fleet Street, the sinister barber Sweeney Todd murders his wealthier clients using a mechanical chair that dumps them into his cellar. The bodies are immediately passed to his accomplice, Mrs. Lovett, who runs a popular meat pie shop in the next street. Unbeknownst to the public, Lovett uses the human remains as the succulent filling for her critically acclaimed pies. When a sailor carrying a string of pearls vanishes, a dedicated investigation, led by a woman in disguise, must penetrate Todd’s terrifying secret to expose the gruesome truth.A dark, essential foundation of Gothic and urban horror.
