История Суинни Тодда началась в 1846 году, когда в лондонской серии «Народная библиотека для семейного чтения» начала издаваться авантюрная повесть «Нитка жемчуга», предположительно написанная неким Джеймсом Малколмом Раймером. Легенда о кровожадном брадобрее, резавшем своих клиентов, быстро полюбилась читателям. Одного Джека-Потрошителя на весь огромный и сумрачный Лондон было, действительно, маловато.
