We are just days away from the finale of “Dexter: Original Sin,“ which will be available on Paramount + on Feb. 14. To mark the occasion, we have gathered some ideas for an epic watch party. It’s time to dress up like your favorite Dexter character, decorate your home like a crime scene and indulge in some delicious snacks for the season finale…
Prepare the crime scene with terrifying decorations
Give your home the look and feel of a Dexter-style crime scene by covering walls and furniture with plastic sheeting and adding fake blood splatters for an even more dramatic effect. Wrap the front door with duct tape to create the perfect atmosphere when guests arrive. With dim lighting and bags of fake evidence scattered around, your home is ready for the ghouliest party ever.
Entertain your guests with appetizers and drinks!
A watch party for this series without delicious appetizers to enjoy while watching is unthinkable. Mimic Dexter’s favorite workplace gesture and serve a tray full of donuts decorated with blood-red frosting. As for the cocktail list, why not be inspired by one of the series’ recurring themes with a blood orange drink? If you want to offer something special, serve it in a syringe so guests can inject the drink directly into their glasses!
Dress up as your favorite character from “Dexter: Original Sin”
Whether you play the young Dexter Morgan in a T-shirt and jeans with a scalpel in your hand or as Harry Morgan in head-to-toe detective gear, everyone at this party needs to stick to their Dexter look. You can also wear a Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses to mimic the vibrant look of Miami’s civilian population in the 1990s.
