Dailey Bailey: You Can Now Buy a “Lion Killer Dentist” Halloween Costume

I guess we should’ve seen this coming.  A company called Costumeish.com just started selling a brand new costume for Halloween 2015:  The “Lion Killer Dentist.”

lion dentist costumeIf that doesn’t ring any bells for you, then you must’ve been on a deserted island a few weeks ago.  A dentist named Walter Palmer killed a famous lion named Cecil on an African hunting trip.

The costume comes with a dentist’s smock covered in fake blood splatters . . . white surgical gloves covered in fake blood splatters . . . a few dentist tools for the front pocket . . . and a fake severed lion’s head.

It sells for $60, and 15% of the proceeds are going toward a wildlife foundation.

33-year-old Johnathon Weeks is the founder of Costumeish, and he’s already anticipating the backlash.

Quote, “Halloween is a really tricky day . . . it’s almost [about] desensitizing things.  Maybe our money has Cecil’s blood on it.  I’m not here to offend anybody, I’m just here to keep things questionable.”
