Viewers of Netflix hit Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story are urging fellow fans, and fans of lead actor Evan Peters, not to romanticise the serial killer. Viewers have taken to social media to call out others who sympathise with the murderer.
Dahmer, who murdered 17 young men and boys in the United States between 1978 and 1991, is the focus of Netflix's latest true crime hit. The 10-part programme has been viewed for more than 205 million hours across the world and remains at the top of Netflix's most-watched TV for the third week running.
The show's creators and stars, including lead actor Evan Peters, have said that their intentions with the show were to pay respect to the victims and their families by telling the story. However, some fans have expressed concern over the way others have discussed the show's antagonist, his attractiveness.
