Bay Harbor
The harbor where Dexter's victims surface and the Bay Harbor Butcher gets his name.
Bay Harbor gives its name to the "Bay Harbor Butcher", the name Dexter Morgan is eventually given as a killer. In the second season over 30 of his victims' bodies are found in a Miami harbor, provoking a massive search for the killer inside Dexter's own department.
Lore & Background
FBI agent Frank Lundy is assigned to the investigation and picks Debra, Angel Batista and Vince Masuka for his task force. To avoid being identified, Dexter finds a new dumping area with a current that leads to the Atlantic Ocean. When it emerges that every victim was a criminal and killer, some of the public openly support the Butcher, and the case even inspires a knife-wielding comic-book hero, the Dark Defender.
