Photos Show Attacks By Poltergeist Named ‘Jack the Ripper’

A terrified mother in Braunstone, Leicester, in the UK is being terrorized by a spirit she named “Jack the Ripper” who likes to grab people and burn things, and she has the photos to prove it.

Gaynor Issitt, 58, says Jack isn’t the only spirit in her home, but he certainly is the most aggressive.

Since she moved into her property 12-years ago, she says there have been all kinds of weird behaviors and the renter before her said he experienced the same phenomena.

the British publication the The Evening Times reports that Gaynor was once dragged out of bed and pushed down the stairs.

September is the month she says these activities seem to become more frequent.

Paranormal sleuths have deemed that her home is one of the top five most haunted in the country.

But it’s Jack who seems to scaring her the most.

Burns reportedly made by a poltergeist in a UK residence.

“He’s the worst,” she told The Evening Times, “He’s not a good spirit and it’s been getting worse recently too.”

He likes to burn things, setting fire to walls, furniture and family photographs.

The ghost reportedly only burns the heads off people in the pictures, leaving the rest intact.

“He has started fires so I have to keep buckets of water around the house. He physically attacks me, and I have been left bruised in the past.”

She says visiting investigators hear children calling for Jack, and growling noises.

More burns purported to have been made by a ghostly arsonist.

Her partner says he has seen apparitions of a man and a little girl walking about the house.

“They move objects as well. When that happens you know it’s going to get worse because they start off slowly, like moving things, and then build up,” Gaynor said.”They start fires, they hit me and my partner. That is the worst when they actually physically strike you.”

Gaynor thinks the specters are angered by religious items, setting fire to crucifixes, Bibles and hymnals.

A documentary crew doing a story on the location claim they discovered a portal in her kitchen floor.

Gaynor said: “Some people probably won’t believe me but I’d say come and try living here and you might soon change your mind.”

All three of her children are grown up and have left the home, and now only Gaynor and her partner are left to deal with the angry Jack and the others.

Gaynor and her partner capture activity on a security camera.

“You get used to it really. I don’t mind them,” She said. “It can be a bit scary but once you’ve lived with them for so long, you just get on with things. You have to, this is my family home and I won’t be driven out of it.”

Investigator Mark Vernon is the next investigator who will examine Gaynor’s claims.

Vernon requested to be her friend on Facebook and after she accpeted he asked if he could come take a look for himself, but warned her that if he discovered it was a hoax, he would expose her.

“She agreed,” said Vernon. “She sent me a few pictures of attacks on her partner and the damage to the house.”

The home in Braunstone, England that is reportedly host to many evil spirits.

Jake Gyllenhaal’s Thriller ‘Presumed Innocent’ Series Gets Early Release Date

Published

Jake Gyllenhaal’s limited series Presumed Innocent is dropping on AppleTV+ on June 12 instead of June 14 as originally planned. The star, whose Road House reboot has brought mixed reviews on Amazon Prime, is embracing the small screen for the first time since his appearance on Homicide: Life on the Street in 1994.

Jake Gyllenhaal’s in ‘Presumed Innocent’

Presumed Innocent is being produced by David E. Kelley, J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot, and Warner Bros. It is an adaptation of Scott Turow’s 1990 film in which Harrison Ford plays a lawyer doing double duty as an investigator looking for the murderer of his colleague.

These types of sexy thrillers were popular in the ’90s and usually contained twist endings. Here’s the trailer for the original:

According to Deadline, Presumed Innocent doesn’t stray far from the source material: “…the Presumed Innocent series will explore obsession, sex, politics and the power and limits of love as the accused fights to hold his family and marriage together.”

Up next for Gyllenhaal is the Guy Ritchie action movie titled In the Grey scheduled for release in January 2025.

Presumed Innocent is an eight-episode limited series set to stream on AppleTV+ starting June 12.

Trailer for ‘The Exorcism’ Has Russell Crowe Possessed

The latest exorcism movie is about to drop this summer. It’s aptly titled The Exorcism and it stars Academy Award winner turned B-movie savant Russell Crowe. The trailer dropped today and by the looks of it, we are getting a possession movie that takes place on a movie set.

Just like this year’s recent demon-in-media-space film Late Night With the Devil, The Exorcism happens during a production. Although the former takes place on a live network talk show, the latter is on an active sound stage. Hopefully, it won’t be entirely serious and we’ll get some meta chuckles out of it.

The film will open in theaters on June 7, but since Shudder also acquired it, it probably won’t be long after that until it finds a home on the streaming service.

Crowe plays, “Anthony Miller, a troubled actor who begins to unravel while shooting a supernatural horror film. His estranged daughter, Lee (Ryan Simpkins), wonders if he’s slipping back into his past addictions or if there’s something more sinister at play. The film also stars Sam Worthington, Chloe Bailey, Adam Goldberg and David Hyde Pierce.”

Crowe did see some success in last year’s The Pope’s Exorcist mostly because his character was so over-the-top and infused with such comical hubris it bordered on parody. We will see if that is the route actor-turned-director Joshua John Miller takes with The Exorcism.
