Gay bars in Milwaukee, Wisconsin are banning customers from wearing Jeffrey Dahmer Halloween costumes, because the famed serial killer preyed on his victims in the city's LGBT community.
The convicted serial killer famously targeted the gay male community in the Wisconsin city for a decade-and-a-half in the late seventies to early nineties.
During that time, he killed 17 men and boys, whose bodies he dismembered and sometimes ate.
Interest in the slaughter has spiked with the release of the Netflix drama Dahmer starring Evan Peters, which sparked a fresh wave of interest in the grim case.
Those donning Dahmer get-ups will be denied entrance at LGBT watering holes D.I.X. in the Midwest city this Halloween.
Representatives of This is It! told local channel WISN 12 that despite Dahmer never having come to their bar, they have 'been getting phone calls ever since the Netflix series aired because we are the oldest LGBTQ+ bar in Milwaukee, and in the Midwest.'
'This, coupled with the popularity of the series and people on social media toying with the idea that somehow dressing up like this evil person would be a good idea, led the bar to make a statement that such hateful and disrespectful costumes will not be allowed in our space.'

The Drama Queens continue to make it all about them, 24/7/365. I'm sure they ALL sat Shiva for the victims back in the day.
*Rolleyes*
They don’t have to worry about me showing up at a gay bar dressed as Dahmer.
When I got to high school, I was the one in the house handing out the candy instead of running around the neighborhood collecting it in some stupid Charlie Brown costume!
You have to admit, it would be in bad taste... who has an appetite for that kind of humor?
Too expensive - they get an arm and a leg for them.

By sixth or seventh grade I was handing out candy. I was over the trick or treating thing.
No way Sam. Halloween is officially for adults now.
It’s amazing what a subset of society can do when they put their minds to it.
I will not watch that stupid show about him. No, he is not a hero.
When asked what he was having for dinner Dahmer replied “Chuck roast”.
Gacey. What a Nut!
Unless they’re expecting a lot of straight guys to show up at the bar in Dahmer costumes they’re discriminating against LGBTQs.
Maybe the queers with a sense of humor can have their own party and siphon off most of the bar’s customers.
Siphon might not have been the best word to use there. Lure?
I didn’t know there were any Jeffrey Dahmer Halloween costumes. Now, I want to see one!
ROFLOL!
This whole friggan world is gone absolutely bat shit bonkers.
Ya. Never thought of that. Your right.🤡😉
It's a scam. You really just need goofy glasses, a goofy shirt, and a goofy haircut.
If you went to school in the 1970s you probably dressed more or less like Dahmer.
Everybody did.
