Spring-Heeled Jack: acest nume este evocat cu teamă de către criminali și oamenii obișnuiți. Unii cred că este un demon, dar el este de fapt un super-erou - sărind pe clădirile Angliei victoriene cu ajutorul arcurilor montate în tălpile pantofilor săi.
Povestea începe cu trei tineri inocenți care evadează din orfelinatul lor într-o noapte furtunoasă. Drumul lor pe străzile Londrei nu este scutit de pericole atunci când din bezna nopții își poate apariția Mack the Knife, cel mai rău dintre cei răi. Vor fi suficiente puterile lui Jack pentru a-i putea apăra pe cei trei orfani?
