After the success of the Netflix series “Dahmer: An American Cannibal”, several people have been looking for items, t-shirts and even costumes, as Halloween approaches, inspired by the American serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, who killed 17 people among the 1978 and 1991.
According to information from UOLAlthough several websites are removing the serial killer-based costumes that were available for sale, many are still looking for items and even shirts associated with the killer.
In general, interested parties have turned to online stores on sites like Etsy and eBay to search for products related to the killer. For example, Etsy has items like cutting boards, eyeglasses similar to those used by the killer, and graphic T-shirts and other items that reference Jeffrey Dahmer on his website.
The TMZ website echoed the eBay selling site, which also sold clothing related to the serial killer. However, the store told TMZ that it has removed the sale of Dahmer-related clothing, equipment, and products, as the company’s policies are against messages that induce hatred, violence, or criminal activity.
The eBay page states that “items closely associated with or for the benefit of violent criminals, their acts or crime scenes in the past 100 years” are not allowed.
Many pieces were (and are) available on the sites mainly due to the proximity to Halloween, celebrated on October 31, a popular holiday in the United States.
