  • Sweeney Todd is a fictional character who first appeared as the protagonist and main villain of a penny dreadful serial entitled The String of Pearls (1846-1847). Claims that Sweeney Todd was a real person are strongly disputed by scholars, although there are possible legendary prototypes, arguably making the story of Sweeney Todd an early example of an urban legend. In the original version of the tale he is a barber who murders wealthy customers by slitting their throats then pulling a lever while they are in his barber's chair which, unknown to them, is fixed to a revolving trap-door, making them fall backward into the basement. But in many adaptations of the tale, the murdering process is reversed, meaning that he pulls a lever causing them to drop into the basement and then slits their throats. After Todd has robbed his dead victims of their goods, Mrs. Lovett, his partner in crime (in some later versions, his friend who wants to become his lover), assists him in disposing of the bodies by having their flesh baked into meat pies, and selling them to the unsuspecting customers of her pie shop since meat was too expensive and she hardly makes any money. Todd's barber shop is situated at 186 Fleet Street, London, next to St. Dunstan's church, and is connected of Mrs. Lovett's pie shop in nearby Bell Yard by means of an underground passage. The tale surrounding the character became a staple of Victorian melodrama, and later a Tony award-winning Broadway musical in 1979. Sweeney Todd has also been featured in several films, the most recent being Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007), directed by Tim Burton, with Johnny Depp in the title role.

  • Mrs. Lovett - "Well I can't say the years have been particularly kind to you Mr. Barker, bu..." Sweeney Todd - "No, not Barker, that man is dead. It's Todd now, Sweeney Todd, and he will have his revenge." Benjamin Barker, later known as Sweeney Todd, is the main protagonist and title character of the Broadway musical and its film adaptation. Benjamin Barker is a skilled barber, serving the men of London in his establishment on Fleet Street, He is married to Lucy Barker and together they have a daughter, Johanna. Benjamin Barker served 15 years of a Life Sentence in a prison in Australia, which is what he called "a living hell". After he escapes Incarceration, he returns home to London on a ship, with a new friend, Anthony. Anthony only knows Benjamin by his new name, Sweeney Todd.
