Jeffrey Dahmer's urn that held remains of infamous serial killer is FOR SALE – along with other grisly belongings | The Sun
AN urn that once held the ashes of Jeffrey Dahmer is being flogged for £221,000 alongside a gruesome collection of the serial killer's personal belongings.
Other creepy mementos up for sale include a signed bible, photos, prison mail and various legal documents that were once in the hands of the depraved murderer.
Dahmer – who killed and dismembered 17 boys and men between 1978 and 1991 – was bludgeoned to death in prison by a fellow inmate in 1994.
He was cremated and his ashes were divided between his parents Lionel and Joyce, who were divorced.
Now, a metal urn claimed to have once contained the cannibal's ashes has been listed for sale.
The haunting item has been listed on a true crime online shop, which also advertises items associated with OJ Simpson and The Yorkshire Ripper.

Dahmer's urn is the most expensive memento for sale at £221,000.
Photos show a metal container, as well as a clear plastic bag that once may have contained his ashes.
Although the urn comes with no description, Taylor James, who runs the site Cult Collectibles, refers to the memorabilia as "the rarest true crime item I will ever have on the site".
The listing demands "serious inquiries only", as well as stating that "trades and payment plans" are not accepted.

Another disturbing ad on the site features Dahmer’s prison bible, which he potentially used in prison where the cannibal was baptised before his death.
Three bibles are available for purchase, ranging from £5,300 to £12,300.
One bible, which was listed at £12,300, was allegedly signed by the serial killer and has since been sold.
The listing read: "This is a bible belonging to Jeffrey Dahmer. It was among his possessions in his prison cell at the time of his death.
"It includes notes from the woman who sent him the bible, as well as his signed name and a note asking God for forgiveness for what he had done.
"Please note, this item has signs of wear from age. It is a well-read book."
Other grisly belongings up for sale include a family picture featuring a young Dahmer and a photo of him in grade five at school which is selling for a staggering £3,100.
An abundance of legal documents are also listed, as well as his prescription notes, prison notes and tax returns.
James this week told The Sun how material related to Dahmer was by far the most difficult to get hold of.
KILLER SET
His collection includes letters, documents, cutlery, books, his prison bible and even his glasses.
And he said the most disturbing item in his collection is a dossier of letters the killer got from an obsessed fan.
The fan – a woman – would write him multiple letters every day, convinced she had a "personal connection" to the cannibal killer.
James said: "Dahmer is one of the most notorious serial killers in the US, but there isn't much material out there related to him.
"When it comes to collecting items, John Wayne Gacy painted hundreds of artworks in prison, and Richard Ramirez wrote thousands of letters from behind bars.
"But Dahmer was only in jail for two years before he was murdered."
A third of the letters, James says, were from people who were trying to "understand" his crimes and wanted to learn more about why he did what he did.
Roughly another third were from religious people. Dahmer became a born-again Christian behind bars and a signed Bible he kept in his cell is one of the items for sale on James's website.

But the final third of the letters, James says, came from "fanatics" who were in love with the twisted cannibal killer.
He said: "People would write love letters to Dahmer, saying, 'you're misunderstood', 'I love you', 'I wish I could be with you'."
