About

REDRUM BACK FROM THE DEAD refers to a catchphrase that originates from an Instagram post by XL Bully breeder @thebullycampline. The Instagram user posted an image of a bully named "Redrum" in May 2023, claiming to have cloned him twice "because he can." Memes about Redrum being unable to escape samsara began making the rounds online in May 2024, a year after the original post. The meme is similar to jokes about x2 Pimpy x3 Bape.
