Victorian slums were dark, fearful homes to thieves and violent brutes. By night you’d hear laughter and jollity, but also shouts and frightened screams, but you kept your door as well-barred as possible, and never asked for the cause from your neighbours. In a dystopian world of marginal existence, people came and went – some came and never went, were never missed and never seen again. In this 1880s eyewitness account you will discover the terrible scenes and stories a Victorian journalist revealed as he journeyed into London’s slums.
