The Sweeney Todd story

Sweeney Todd is a fictional character, who first appeared in a story called
‘The String Of Pearls’, published in a Victorian newspaper in 1846-7.
Since then the story has been re-told in many different formats, including
Victorian melodrama, theatre, films, dance, television, comics, radio plays, and
a famous Broadway musical. The story has become urban legend, and although
some claim there is a historical basis and that Sweeney Todd was a real person,
there is no evidence to support this.


‘Death By Haircut’ is an adaptation of the
traditional Sweeney Todd story. Here is a
summary of the original plot, as published on
Wikipedia. 
Sweeney Todd is a barber who dispatches his
victims by pulling a lever as they sit in his barber
chair. His victims fall backward down a revolving
trapdoor into the basement of his shop, generally
causing them to break their necks or skulls. In
case they are alive, Todd goes to the basement
and “polishes them off” (slitting their throats with
his straight razor). In some adaptations,
the murdering process is reversed, with Todd
slitting his customers’ throats before dispatching
them into the basement through the revolving
trapdoor. After Todd has robbed his dead victims
of their goods, Mrs. Lovett, his partner in crime,
assists him in disposing of the bodies by baking
their flesh into meat pies and selling them to the
unsuspecting customers of her pie shop. Todd’s
barber shop is situated at 186 Fleet Street,
London, next to St. Dunstan’s church, and is connected
 to Mrs. Lovett’s pie shop in nearby Bell Yard by means 
of an underground passage. In most versions of the story, 
he and Mrs.Lovett hire an unwitting orphan boy, Tobias Ragg,
 to serve the pies to customers.
