Spectre Studios is a Colorado toy company headed by David Johnson.
Johnson gained controversy in 2002 for making a line of serial killer action figures that were featured on the Nation Enquirer, including an action figure of Jeffrey Dahmer.[1]
The "Serial Killer" line included Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Ed Gein, Pogo the Clown, Lizzie Borden, and Charles Manson, and O. J. Simpson.
The company also made a line of winged women with the characters Gabrielle, Dorcha, Salleene, and Frist.
David Johnson retired Spectre Studios in 2010 but has since come out of retirement with a new rebooted line of serial killers and website.
