Dahmer mostly targeted gay males of color, who he found at local bus stations, pubs, shopping centers, and adult bookstores. According to The New York Times, he would lure the men to accompany him by offering beer or cash in exchange for them appearing naked for pictures.

Then, before killing his victims, Dahmer would put drugs in their drinks. The newspaper at the time stated that he kept the body parts of many victims in his refrigerator and even consumed some of their organs.

“I didn’t want them to leave,” Dahmer told the police by way of explanation after his arrest. He killed twelve men at this location, per Newsweek.

According to The New York Times, Dahmer's apartment was stocked with weapons, which led police officers to believe it was a "killing factory." Police discovered a barrel of hydrochloric acid, which he used to disintegrate the men's bodies and preserve their skeletons, as well as ether and chloroform, which were likely used to sedate his victims. Three torsos were dissolving inside the 57-gallon barrel, according to the cops.

According to FBI records, the authorities ultimately found 11 people's corpses, bones, and body parts in his flat. According to records, they also discovered various knives and sawblades, a hypodermic needle, an electric drill, and pictures.

By 1987, Dahmer had started killing again. He killed his second victim, Steven Tuomi, in a hotel room, but brought the body back to his grandmother's home in a suitcase to dismember it, according to Biography. He is believed to have killed another three people at his grandmother's home after Tuomi's death.

Dahmer's grandmother eventually asked him to move out of her home in 1988, but he wouldn't actually move out until 1990. At that time, the killings continued in Dahmer's North 25th Street apartment, according to Distractify. Catherine Dahmer was not aware of her grandson's crimes at the time.

Dahmer's apartment was torn down in November 1992, 15 months after the human remains were discovered, at the request of the victim’s families, per Newsweek. So, technically, it no longer exists.

But you can see what the outside of the apartment building used to look like, thanks to an avid ghost tour and serial killer aficionado on YouTube who goes by the name Shakers Milwaukee, per Esquire.

Neighbors gather near a Milwaukee apartment building as police continued to investigate their discovery of body parts in an apartment of Jeffrey L. Dahmer.

The president of the project, Patrick LeSage, called Dahmer’s home a "symbol of anger, pain, violence, and death” when talking to The Bulletin in 1992. "It needs to be replaced with a sign of our commitment to support the healing process and to work together as a community of people who care,” he said, per Newsweek.
