Bud Jenness: Jack the Ripper…The King of Serial Killers

Bud Jenness

Bud Jenness

From a very young age, Bud Jenness has had an intense fascination with the legendary Blood Fiend of White Chapel, Jack the Ripper. Bud has studied extensively on the subject and, in 1992, he accompanied renowned ”Ripperologist” and Author, Donald Rumbelow, on the famous Jack the Ripper Walking Tour, and discussed the case with Rumbelow in depth. Bud had been monitoring the many documentaries and books on the Ripper case ever since, comparing and contrasting the various theories and speculations about the identity of the mysterious killer. He’s noticed that much of what he learned from Rumbelow does not appear in other texts, or in documentaries and, in this seminar, he would like to share what he knows with those interested in the case as well.

Bud Jenness has been a paranormal researcher for over 20 years. His macabre interests include Hauntings, the Philosophy of Ghosts & the Afterlife, and the Deviant Psychology of Serial Killers. Bud holds advanced degrees in world religion, and a Bachelor’s Degree in English. He has been a public speaker for over two decades. He had been a guest speaker at Scarefest repeatedly in the past, and has been a special guest on podcasts, and at other conventions.
