Showtime’s Dexter Creates a Viral Beehive with season 7 Teaser

Showtime’s dearly demented ratings darling, Dexter has released a viral locust plague throughout the social media universe. The upcoming seventh season about a Miami PD forensics expert who moonlights as a serial killer of those who’ve escaped justice is due to premier September, 30, and Showtime just played a cruel joke on its fans in the form of a “Sneak Peak” trailer released on Youtube and Facebook.

Who among us could resist the temptation to play it! At long last, we’d finally get a glimpse of life after Deb’s gruesome discovery.

Except what followed was a six second cluster of random yet tempting frames with no discernible content. Check it out below!

Talk about releasing the trolls. It garnered nine thousand “Likes” and three thousand comments within thirty five minutes! Tell me this doesn’t just beckon you to peruse through it frame by frame, dissect every image, and talk about it with friends and fans alike. The buzz is already flammable. While we hate being teased, we’ve got to tip our hats to Showtime for a brilliant marketing strategy that doesn’t rely on the archaic method of just slapping a trailer on Youtube. They have their fans doing their bidding at hardly any cost. Bravo.
