Sherlock Holmes is drawn into the case of Jack the Ripper, who is killing prostitutes in London's East End. Assisted by Dr. Watson, and using information provided by a renowned psychic, Robert Lees, Holmes finds that the murders may have their roots in a Royal indiscretion and that a cover-up is being managed by politicians at the highest level, all of whom happen to be Masons.

Editor's Verdict

❌NO

"The movie 'Murder by Decree' is a historical crime thriller centered on Jack the Ripper. There is no indication that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution have any meaningful connection to the Christmas season."
