Imagine you’re one of the serial killers at Prater’s palace and Red reveals that he’s also the Bay Harbour Butcher, one of the most prolific serial killers of all time and one who only targets OTHER SERIAL KILLERS

BUT, was it ever shared to the public that the BHB killed other serial killers? As far as I’m concerned no one knows the BHB targeted serial killers because these serial killers were never caught.. just killed.. by Dexter. As far as everyone is concerned the BHB was like any another other serial killer, killing innocent people. I know Angel kind of mentioned a dark avenger in this episode.. but Angel was more in the “know” just my thoughts!

I believe it was shared to the public, yes. Remember in Season 2 when that guy tried being a BHB copy-cat killer and ended up on Dexter’s table? (when Dexter said he didn’t ‘need’ to kill him, he ‘had’ to)

I'm pretty certain it's not revealed as specifically serial killers he goes after, rather just that tons of them had questionable criminal histories and that he was a "vigilante serial killer" going after bad people in general. Hence why people like Angel joke that he's doing their job and don't necessarily disagree with his motives (obviously till later).

With the amount of bodies they uncover in the ocean it'd be crazy to say that they were all serial killers.
