It’s not the killer costume you should be wearing this Halloween.
The internet has put out a PSA that dressing up like serial killer and cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer — who has resurged in notoriety from the hit Netflix series “Dahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” — is not acceptable this Oct. 31st.
Impersonating Dahmer for kicks is not only blatantly disrespectful to the families of the 17 deceased, but also shows a disturbing, tasteless side of one’s psyche, Twitter users have griped in outrage recently.
“Please do not ‘Cosplay’ or dress up as Jeffrey Dahmer for Halloween. Stop idolizing a horrific human that committed atrocious crimes. It’s f—ing weird,” tweeted @DarlinSincerest. “Go to therapy to work through your weird a– obsession, too. That s–t is not healthy.”
“We get that there is a cool new Netflix show about him but this man was a real life murderer who does not deserve the praise,” wrote @teais_tasty.
The outrage has reached a point where many say sporting a look of the Milwaukee mass murderer warrants a public beating.
“if you see someone being Jeffrey Dahmer for Halloween, please beat them up,” tweeted @AzulasSon.
“If you dress as Jeffrey Dahmer for Halloween I truly hope you get beat up,” posted @zahramusa26, warning all those “in the wrong” for donning the costume.
But it seems not everyone got the message.
Instagram user Sophia Casanova posed as Dahmer getting his mug shot taken — after a previous photo of the costume was allegedly taken down by the platform.
“Posting me as Dahmer again because it got deleted,” Casanova wrote. “I worked too hard to be censored!”
