Maybe people fleeing from the monsters or Oswald Mandus himself.

You play as Oswald?...

Since hearing about other NPC's in the game, I honestly hoped this wasn't true. I pray we don't have other people in the game we're talking to and interacting with. It would COMPLETELY take away the feeling of being alone and stranded, desperate without nothing but you and your own mind in the darkness. I would be 90% less scared if I had people around me the whole time, it's a huge mistake. Now if it's just us running into someone every so often, like the little kid you see running through a hall in one of the teasers, trying to get away from you. Or mysteriously showing up every so often even, I think that would be kind of creepy and cool.

How so?
We had Red to talk to us in Overture
We had the lovely redhead doctores in Black Plague
We had dr Emenis talking to us in Requim
We had Agripa talk to us but the game was called amnesia so we also had Daniel himself and Alexander talking to us.

It wouldn't be anything strange

Interestingly, two Ripper-related streets are shown in screenshots: Buck's Row & Hanbury Street:

Hmm.. the ripper only killed whores and that in the year 1888. AMFP is set in the year 1899. Don't know if they will take the events so accurate, but I think it will play a underling role in the game.

I think he meant more along the lines of someone who just stood in one area who you could constantly talk to in the game.
