Right now on eBay, buyers can get their hands on a Joe Exotic/"Tiger King” costume. They can bid on Jack the Ripper outfits, top hat and cape included. Or any number of “sexy” versions fictional murderous characters. There are even costumes for a fictional “Night Stalker,” though they don’t resemble Richard Ramirez at all.
What they can’t do is bid on a Jeffrey Dahmer Halloween costume — not the glasses, not a wig — no matter how much they loved the Netflix’s hit miniseries “Dahmer.” Not even a gray hoodie, beige jacket or striped shirt if they are advertised in connection to the cannibalistic serial killer.
EBay, which did not respond immediately to the Los Angeles Times’ request for comment Thursday, has pulled all items invoking Dahmer from its website, according to BuzzFeed News.
