Sweeney Todd

Sweeney Todd is a Victorian horror character and urban legend. He was a barber who murdered his wealthy customers and robbed them, before sending the corpses to his partner in crime, Mrs Lovett, a baker, who made them into the filling of her meat pies. While the story has a fine history in 'penny dreadfuls' and other media, in fanfiction there is really only one Sweeney Todd and that is the Sweeney Todd portrayed in the musical film 'Sweeney Todd; The Demon Barber of Fleet Street' (2007), the titular character of which is played by that perennial fangirl-magnet, Johnny Depp.
