eBay sellers cash in on new Netflix Jeffrey Dahmer series by selling dupes of his clothing

Ghoulish Ebay sellers are trying to cash in on the new Netflix series about serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer - by selling sick merchandise and even dupes of his loafers. Shoes that are the same brand, style and colour as the ones Dahmer is seen wearing in home videos before his arrest are on sale on eBay for £30.

With viewers gripped by Netflix's new show 'DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story', items glorifying the sick serial killer have been popping up to buy on different websites., A pair of brown vintage Hush Puppies, allegedly from the 1990s, are currently on sale on eBay for £30 with the seller directly referencing them as similar to those worn by the serial killer.

The description includes: "These are the same brand, style and colour of shoes Jeffrey Dahmer wore which can be seen in the home videos his father recorded before his arrest."

The new Netflix show 'DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story' was released on the popular streaming website last Wednesday (September 21) and currently holds the UK number one spot in TV Programmes Today. With viewers gripped by the show that details the story behind serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer who famously murdered 17 teen boys and young men, clothes in tribute to the criminal have appeared on Depop and etsy.

A denim jacket featuring Dahmer's face with the words 'Let's Do Lunch' is on sale on Depop for £60 as well as wallets, t-shirts and earrings showing the serial killer. A t-shirt with his face on alongside the words 'I eat guys like you for breakfast' is on sale on etsy for £19.

Other products on etsy include an 'If you can't beat em, eat em - Jeffrey Dahmer' t-shirt for £14.43 and a birthday card featuring the words 'I love you so Dahm much' for £2.66. American rapper Rick Ross, 46, tweeted about his desire for a pair of sunglasses similar to those worn by the serial killer, writing in a now deleted tweet: "Locate me a pair of Dahmer shades".
