East London has always been famed for its serial killers—Jack the Ripper being the most notorious. But for fans of Dexter, the city’s next infamous villain could be you. Paramount+ has set up a creepy new activation in the U.K. capital, giving people the chance to role-play as their favorite murderer to promote the release of the new show Dexter: Resurrection. Ticket holders will be able to join the Miami Metro Police Department forensics unit in putting the Ice Truck Killer’s victims back together, and snap a pic in Dexter’s iconic plastic wrap. The entire experience is guided by the voice of Michael C. Hall, the actor in the show’s title role, and ends with a wind-down at a killer Dexter-themed cocktail bar. The latest installment in the franchise, which dropped on the streaming service on July 11, is a sequel to both Dexter and Dexter: New Blood. But any budding serial killers will have to be quick—the exhibit opened on July 10 and runs until July 13.
