Cover art for Blood Red Sandman lyrics by Lordi

Ok right..im really not sure what the song means, hence y i check this page out too see if anyone else does this is what ive got from the first verse though,...

they call me the leather apron, they called me smiling/violent? jack...

This verse appears to be reffering to Jack The Ripper, who was also reffered to by many at the time as The Leather Apron befor The Murderer gave himself the name of 'Jack the Ripper'

this is what i know for certain, basing my ideas on this i will continue to lookm at other sections of the song...:

Chills of fear like a sawblade cutting deep

Well make yyour own conclusion here...

"On this unholy night I will make you my own"

Jack the Ripper murdered prostitutes at night,hed pay them and then brutally murder them...

"The way I sign my name"

Jack the ripper signed his name in blood, he would write letters to the detectives responsible for his capture. he also wrote a a note on a wall one night.

"The neighborhood´s pretty dead at night And I´m the one to blame"

Londons east end tended to become silent and dead at night. people were too afraid to go out and prositutes too afraid to work the streets!

"Scream all you want you won´t wake up when you scream No one leaves"

No one ever heard the screams of Jacks Victims! ever!

i think thats about it... you can reply and ask me more Qs bout jack if u like, this is just a brief outline.

Oh and about the refernce that some of you have made to hell...Jackthe ripper sent a parcel to the chairman of the Mile End Vigilance Committee, the organisation offering a reward for the rippers capture, containing half a human kidney. The parcel had -"From Hell" written on it (for more on the note thatwas also included ask)
