Jeffrey Dahmer sketches: Childlike drawings of serial killer dubbed 'Milwaukee Cannibal' reveal unimaginable horror Over the years Dahmer has brought a bizarre cult and Farrier meets with one fanatic - a self-titled "dark tourist" - called Natalie.She said: “He saved the entire bodies of these two on the end... he had a thing for hands, he’d save the hands a lot of times and obviously the penis."

When Ferrier questions if there are similarities between her and Dahmer, Natalie at first denies it but then explains that she is “weird”. Comparisons between Dahmer and other serial killers, particularly Dennis Nilsen, that I found interesting initially but soon grew weary of.

After My Friend Dahmer, this is the second book on Dahmer I have read. And considering how I felt about that one, I can’t say that this was worse. However, it wasn’t my ideal, so to speak. It’s very dry in places and meanders quite a bit, plus Masters isn’t emotionally connected to any of this at all, except that he was present during the trial. Irresistible. . . .

But if anything could be more disturbing than the brute horror of this scene, it was the evidence that Dahmer had been using these human remains not only for sexual gratification, but as part of a dark ritual of his own devising — to furnish a shrine to himself. The Shrine of Jeffrey Dahmer offers a chilling insight into the mind of a serial killer and reveals the horrors within.
