Just some Random Thoughts...

Renard didn't see the vision of the 'demon hands' and start having the severe chest pains & blackouts until after he had that fight with Kenneth. In fact, he seemed in more pain with the bleeding that broke out while he was fighting with Kenneth. Maybe Kenneth brought this demon to town with him? And he needed to have hands-on contact with Renard in order to transfer it to him? I'm just guessing and speculating here, of course. It just seems so obvious, the way they are leading us to believe that Renard is this Jack the Ripper killer...I'm wondering if they are just messing with us, and there will be a twist. It's also interesting that they are showing us the water connection...on the heels of the Mishipeshu episode, where we saw a 'water spirit' that possessed people. The Mishipeshu could jump from one person to another, but they had to be 'receptive' to it, from going through the dream ritual. This Jack the Ripper creature seems to have some connection to the Wesen world. It targets them. We don't know if it possesses only wesen people though. The vision of the 'demon hands' appeared right after Renard had given in to Juliette's charms and betrayed his friend, Nick. Perhaps this act of giving in to his 'dark side' made Renard more vulnerable, more receptive, to the Jack creature?
