A never-before-heard phone call has revealed twisted killer Jeffrey Dahmer bragging to his father about sick trophies hidden beneath the floorboards of his unsuspecting grandmother.
The gruesome conversation was recorded between prisoner Dahmer, who killed 17 young men and boys in Wisconsin and Ohio in a grotesque spree of rape and cannibalism from 1978 to 1991, and his father Lionel. The new audio came to light as part of a documentary, My Son Jeffrey: The Dahmer Family Tapes, due to air on Monday on Fox Nation’s streaming service.
The incident, which saw the notorious serial killer nearly “come to blows” with his father, involved a fight over the contents of a small wooden box stored at his grandmother’s home in Wisconsin, where Dahmer lived in the early 80s.

Remember that small, one-by-one square foot box?” Dahmer can be heard asking his father from prison. “You know what was in it, don't you?” he said. “The mummified head and genitals of the last victim at the West Allis location”.
Dahmer was living with his grandmother, Catherine, after he had been discharged from the army due to his excessive drinking in 1981. He murdered three of his victims at the house, he admitted, after meeting them at nightclubs or the local baths and luring them back to the old woman’s home.

Victim Steven Tuomi was murdered by Dhamer in a nearby hotel but the killer also kept his mummified remains in her basement.
Catherine eventually asked her grandson to move out of her house in 1990 due to his strange behaviour and heavy drinking.

The 87-year-old thought his son was storing pornography in the box in his grandmother’s basement, the phone call reveals.
“One thing I wanted to share with you. Remember when you visited Grandma? Remember that small, one-by-one square-foot box?” Dahmer opens by asking his father. “It was wooden, but it had a metal covering, and you were very insistent that I opened that up because you thought I had pornography magazines.”

His son continued: “I was arguing with you because I didn't want to open it up. We almost came to blows, so I went out the door and I came in again two minutes later. I apologised and everything and you were on your way down to the basement to break the locks to open the case.”

Lionel and his sick son made the phone calls during Dahmer’s time in jail, after he was handed 15 consecutive life sentences for raping, murdering and eating 17 young men. He was beaten to death in jail by fellow inmate Charles Sarver at the age of 34.

Lionel now lives with his second wife, Shari, in Seville, Ohio, around 25 miles west of Akron. He has been divorced from his son's mother, Joyce, since 1978 after she had an affair. He wrote a memoir 'A Father's Story,' in 1994, giving his side of his son's heinous crimes. The four-part documentary is set to air exclusive Dahmer family home movies and 'new insight into one of the world's most infamous string of crimes.'
