Jack (ジャック Jakku) is the spirit of a murderer and Matilda Matisse's guardian ghost.
About[]
Jack was once a killer that lived in London in the early 20th century. His method of operation was so atrocious that Scotland Yard decided to keep his case a secret. Jack had a gentle personality, but one could see the madness in his eyes, and he became known as the "Second Jack". He had already killed 112 people, including his own family when he himself was shot down when he tried to attack a policeman.[1]
His spirit would later linger within his knives. He was eventually sealed by the witch who was taking care of Matilda Matisse, but once she died the seal was now removed, and Matilda knew he was quite dangerous, she still took him as own her guardian ghost.[2]
