Jack Sheppard was a famous thief and escape artist whose repeated prison breaks made him a celebrity in 18th-century England. When he was finally executed, the crowds were so enormous that Tyburn became less a place of justice and more a carnival of death. Interesting Fact: The turnout was so huge it was compared to a national holiday — and Sheppard’s life quickly became the subject of books, plays, and ballads almost immediately after his death. #jacksheppard #darkhistory #british #tyburn #exec

For almost 600 years, thousands of people were hanged here, from petty thieves to political rebels and Catholic martyrs. When nearby Connaught Square was built in the 1820s, human remains were uncovered, the forgotten dead of Tyburn.
