Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, was centered on the crimes of the prolific serial killer, which took place between 1978 and 1991.
The criminal and cannibal, who was ultimately beaten to death in prison in 1994, was portrayed by Evan Peters, who previously collaborated with Murphy on several seasons of American Horror Story.
It has become the second most viewed English Netflix series of all time, having racked up more than 700 million hours viewed.
But the renewed interest in Dahmer and his crimes has triggered speculation and fears for family members that people will dress up as the serial killer this Halloween, donning a blonde wig, gold frame sunglasses and buying drills similar to the one used by the killer to dismember bodies.

While some fancy dress shops have opted not to sell Dahmer paraphernalia at all, props are showing up in online stores like eBay.
For sale are blonde wigs, vintage gold-framed sunglasses and even vintage drills that look like the one used by Dahmer.
