Rupert Grint has seen the Grim! Well sorta, as the Ron Weasley actor attended a special opening of the Jack the Ripper Experience in London England. You can see new photos of Rupert Grint at the London Dungeons, site of the The Jack the Ripper experience, here in our galleries. The website describes this exhibit as such: “1888, and the fear rises inside you as you enter Jack the Ripper’s Whitechapel. As you wander the stinking slums the true horror of his terrible crimes is revealed in bloody, graphic detail. And then a scream, the flash of a cloak and an evil smile as you come face to face with Jack the Ripper himself… will you survive?” You can read more about the legendary tale of Jack the Ripper via this link. (Caution to parents of younger children is given due to the graphic nature of the background story of Jack the Ripper.)

Miriam: “Rupert’s a nice guy but i agree with pagini, that is not a flattering pic.” No, but haven’t we all pics we wish no one would see. Plus, the hairdo is just, well, I think the hairdo is the problem. Rupert looks just fine.

Apart from that, besides from the fact that Hermione falls for Ron and not for Rupert ;-), love isn’t about looks anyway.

I from the East End where Jack the Ripper plied his um…trade and it still captures the imagination of people here today, especially in Whitechapel where the murders took place. It may well be a morbid fascination but no more than many others around the world. It was one of the great unsolved mysteries with hundreds of conspiracy theories surrounding it, not to mention it inspiring many films and books. If it’s not for you, fine, don’t visit the trail. But if other people want to learn more about it then that’s fine too.

I see some Rupert bashers have arrived on this thread, but luckily Rupert either won’t read the comments, or won’t care. He’s just a salt of the earth guy who knows how to enjoy his life. Big up to him and you haters can (as we say in East End) ” ‘ave it on yer toes”.

Zee I completely agree with you. Im not from london or anything but i find this person very interesting. There is still so much out there about Jack The Ripper we are not sure on and want to find out the truth. Me? I want to know if the murderer was some sort of doctor. Because the way it reads and sounds is that he/she made cuts only a doctor would do….. but yea i think this is not JUST for the entertainment of it but also a historic bit to see. Like i said B4 I hope to heck Rupert watchs Ghost Hunters…

Oh BTW the salam Witch trials…... thats a whole other can of worms. That wasnt murder but i know what your getting at with that instance.

I know…..I think he was a doctor too…its scary how he used his knowledge to do this kind of stuff shudders and @ pagini….Hermione loves Ron and not Rupert….but Rupert seems like a nice guy though.

Guess That Book

The girl gave off an aura of distinct dottiness. Perhaps it was the fact that she had stuck her wand behind her left ear for safekeeping, or that she had chosen to wear a necklace of butterbeer caps, or that she was reading a magazine upside down.
