The Butcher of Bedern

Step inside the butcher’s shop, if you dare.
The cleaver’s still warm, and the stench of raw meat thick in the air. But this isn’t just any butcher. Meet The Butcher of Bedern—a man with a twisted grin and a taste for more than a joint of meat.

Shoulder or leg—which will you choose? But beware… not all the meat on offer comes from the abattoir. Whispers speak of missing beggars, runaway children, and meat with an unusually tender bite.

Will you uncover the horrifying story behind the butcher’s bloodied apron… or become part of the next batch?

This isn’t a history lesson—it’s a slice of pure Victorian terror. Are you brave enough to face the Butcher of Bedern?

Inspired by the dark past of York's slums.
