Some real photos from the Ripper victims are pinned to the walls in the police station sets. Albert Hughes and Allen Hughes placed them there to unnerve the cast, so they'd give an edgier performance.
Great care was taken to accurately reproduce the actual sites of the "Ripper" murders. Illustrations and actual photographs from 1888 were used. Similar care was used to reproduce the wounds inflicted upon the Ripper's victims.
The crew built four blocks of Whitechapel on-location in Prague, including half a church.
In real life, Commissioner of Police Charles Warren never arrived at the site of the fifth murder because he'd resigned shortly before. Strangely, before his resignation, he ordered that no police officer was to enter a crime scene until he arrived, even though all of the previous victims had been killed on the street. No officer or investigator entered the building for three hours, because they were unaware of his resignation.
By not giving dates to specific scenes, the movie makes it seem that the Ripper murders, which occurred between August 31st and November 9th, 1888, happened in a much smaller timeframe. The investigation continued for many years.
"Sir William Gull: One day men will look back and say that I gave birth to the twentieth century. Abberline: You're not going to see the twentieth century."
"Abberline: [about Polly's murder] I'm waiting for the police surgeon's report for more details. Sir Charles Warren: [sits at his desk while smoking a cigarette] I see. Well, one thing's for certain; an Englishman didn't do it. [Warren pulls up a newspaper clipping of American Natives] Sir Charles Warren: Maybe one of these Red Indians wandered into Whitechapel and indulged his natural inclinations. [Abberline looks doubtfully at the drawing] Abberline: With all due respect, sir, I believe this was done by someone with at least a working knowledge of dissection. An educated man, such as a doctor... Sir Charles Warren: [quickly interjects] An educated man? That's preposterous! No well-bred man would do this! [pause] Sir Charles Warren: Probably a tradesman or a butcher... Abberline: [nods] A tradesman is a possibility, sir, yes... [pause] Abberline: But there's a strong indication against it. There was a sprig of grapes under her body. Sir Charles Warren: What are you driving at? Abberline: No one in Whitechapel, no matter what their trade, could afford grapes. Obviously, they were given to her by the killer. It follows that he must be someone with money."
