The late serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer has over the past week been getting a whole lot of attention following Netflix's release of its original series Dahmer- Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.

Dahmer (like most serial killers) had a foreboding look, mostly attributed to his signature eyewear and now the very glasses that the serial killer wore during his time in prison are up for sale.

According to a guy identified as Taylor James who runs Cult Collectibles out of Vancouver, Canada, and is the guy putting up the eyewear for auction they will be going for more than anything at LensCrafters.

Taylor James is willing to part with the serial killer's prison glasses for $150,000 which is roughly around 18.9 million Kenyan shillings.

Dahmer was convicted for the murder of 17 boys and young men, many of whom were black and gay, between 1978 and 1991 and was sentenced to life in prison back in 1992 after a court hearing.

He, however, only lasted for 2 years behind bars before being beaten to death at the hands of a fellow inmate.

Taylor says he got into possession of the glasses a couple of years ago, along with a couple of other objects from Dahmer's life, after being contacted by a former housekeeper (identified as Lionel) for Jeffrey's father. 

Taylor agreed to manage and sell the memorabilia through his website for a portion of the profit

His website, Cult Collectibles is currently selling a ton of items from its Jeffrey Dahmer collection online, including his cutlery, his bible, his original family photos from his childhood, and a bunch of paperwork.

However, Dahmer's prison glasses are not displayed on the website, but interested parties can reach out to Taylor directly.

There's a lot of renewed interest in Dahmer's infamous killing spree on the heels of a new Netflix series.

 Cult Collectibles recently sold another pair of Jeffrey's glasses in a private sale to a high-profile buyer.
