The String of Pearls, or Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street is a penny dreadful tale written in 1846-47 penned by James Malcolm Rymer and Thomas Peckett Prest where the antagonist Sweeney Todd makes his literary debut.The plot concerns the disappearance of the fiancé of Johanna Oakley in the midst of the mysterious disappearances of customers who pay a visit to the shop of the peculiar barber by the name of Sweeney Todd. Meanwhile, the business of the pie shop owner Mrs. Lovett has been a success.

Also was adapted into a Hidden Object Game.Tropes featured in the penny dreadful are:
