Jeffrey Dahmer has become a hot topic on the internet thanks to the new Netflix series \u2018Dahmer\u2019 that chronicles the life of one of the United States\u2019 most notorious serial killers. One of the show\u2019s key components is the polaroid photos that Dahmer would take of his victims. Police found the photos in a drawer in Dahmer\u2019s bedroom back in 1991. Now, TikToker users have begun searching for the polaroid photos to post their reactions, resulting in others blasting them for partaking in such a macabre trend. TikToker users blast Jeffrey Dahmer trend While TikTok has taken some videos down for being too graphic, others have gone viral posting their reactions to the photos. \u201cTikTok took down the unedited one with 130K views,\u201d one video featuring blurred images was captioned. \u201c[The] polaroids are intense to show here,\u201d another said in a video that has been viewed over 1.4 million times. On Twitter, fans took issue with how some TikTokers were partaking in the trend. \u201cI don\u2019t know why people are bragging about not feeling sick after watching the Jeffrey Dahmer film or seeing the real polaroids,\u201d someone wrote. \u201cLike, you should feel sick?\u201d Others reiterated a point about the victims being real people and not characters in a Netflix show. In any case, it does seem like TikTok is taking some of the clips down, but only the ones that include very graphic content. The reactions, however, are doing very well for views, so it\u2019s easy to see why some creators are capitalizing on the trend despite its subject matter. This isn\u2019t the first time TikTokers have been in hot water over Dahmer. In September, fan edits of the show appeared online prompting a lot of backlash from users on the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TikTokers turn Jeffrey Dahmer polaroids into a disturbing new challenge Netflix\/TikTokA disturbing new TikTok trend has emerged that sees users on the platform reacting to the real-life polaroid photos of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer\u2019s victims.
