The Limehouse Golem

CriticsCritics: 69
AudienceAudience: 6.2

In Victorian London, a series of brutal murders fuels rumors of a mythical killer. As an inspector investigates the slayings, he also works to protect a young woman accused of poisoning her husband, uncovering connections between the case, the city’s music halls, and its troubled residents.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a dark, stylish Victorian murder mystery with music-hall drama, gore, and shifting suspicions, especially if you liked The Pale Blue Eye; Not for you if predictable twists frustrate you.
