'Dexter: New Blood': The story so far

Dexter: New Blood resumes the story of Dexter Morgan 10 years from the events of the final season of the original run of the show. Dexter, now under the new identity of Jim Lindsay, lives in upstate New York and follows a strict routine to control his homicidal urges.

However, this gets interrupted by the arrival of his son, Harrisson, with whom things have not been great. Additionally, a local boy really pushes Dexter back to his original serial killer routine. So far, he has hidden his first murder in a decade really well.

The series also teases another alternate serial killer storyline that is really intriguing at this point. Not much has been shown or announced about this.

Dexter's first murder on the show was a treat for fans as they came together to reminisce about the original show on various social media platforms.
