‘Dahmer’ has been an absolutely massive hit for Netflix since it dropped a couple of weeks ago, but the series hasn’t been without its controversies as many people have accused the streaming giant of fetishizing the serial killer and retraumatising those that were affected during his reign of terror.

The majority of people don’t seem to care about this though, as evidenced by the fact that one guy out there is trying to make a pretty penny off the show’s success by selling the glasses that the murderer wore in jail for $150,000. Taylor James runs Cult Collectibles out of Vancouver, Canada and came into possession of a bunch of Dahmer’s belongings after he was contacted by a former housekeeper of the family a few years ago.
Here’s a video of him showing off the glasses:
Cool right? His glasses aren’t actually listed on the website, but if you have $150,000 (£134,000 right now but who knows how much that will be worth in a couple of hours??) spare then you can reach out to them directly.
If you don’t have that much cash available then maybe you could pick up some of the other items from the website’s Dahmer collection, including his cutlery, his bible, original family photos and a bunch of paperwork. There’s quite a lot available there and most of them are cheaper than the glasses, except for Dahmer’s urn which you can buy for $250,000 if you want to spend a bit more money. Up to you.
