A pattern of killings that continued for fifteen years was first noticed by Special Agent Lundy, but he was unable to identify the perpetrator. Then, in "Living the Dream," Lundy discovered an additional fifteen years of kill cycles, dating back to Vicky Noonan in 1979. Lundy had initially thought that each kill cycle consisted of three murder vict...
Before Arthur died, he was a man in his early 60s with white-gray thinning hair, blue eyes, as well as an imposing height and build. In spite of his age, Arthur possessed a considerable amount of strength, which was seen when he held a strong individual like Dexter in a chokehold and overpowered his athletic son, Jonah, with startling ease. Clothin...
Being "born in blood" (Dexter's euphemism for psychological trauma leading to homicidal impulses), coupled with Arthur's longevity as a successful serial killer, made this man incredibly complex. Arthur's life was comprised of schedules, routines, and identical kill cycles. If something did not go according to his plan, he found it difficult to imp...
Arthur Mitchell was born in Tampa, Florida, and lived in a two-story house for most of his young life. One day in 1959, an event forever scarred him. As a curious ten-year-old boy, he stood in the bathroom doorway, watching his elder sister, Vera, take a shower. When she noticed him in the mirror, she slipped, shattering the shower doors. A shard o...
With his original family long gone in a tragic past, Arthur often reminisced about them. In fact, the four victims in each of his kill cycles represented himself, sister, mother, and father. Due to his life as a teacher, Arthur often carried out kill cycles during school holidays while he was out of town with Four Walls One Heart. The plaques he re...
List of victims killed in Season Four. For a full list of Cycle Victims, see: Trinity Case. 1. Christopher Kavanaugh- Live Burial (off-screen) 2. Lisa Bell- Bathtub 3. Tarla Grant- Jumper 4. Earl Doorman- Bludgeoned
Arthur usually did not kill outside of his well-established cycle, and generally posed no threat to anyone once the cycle was completed. However, there were exceptions. 1. Henry Mitchell- Arthur's father. Due to the profanity that Arthur shouts while bludgeoning the men, it's probable that Henry was Arthur's first kill. 2. Kyle Butler - His name wa...
Himself - failed to commit suicide from falling, like he forced some of his female victims to do ("Road Kill")Jonah Mitchell ("Hungry Man")Scott Smith ("Lost Boys")Kyle Butler ("Hello, Dexter Morgan")Vera Mitchell - She was startled by young Arthur while she was taking a shower and accidentally sliced her femoral artery. (mentioned, ("Road Kill")Frank Lundy - He was shot by Christine Hill, who tried to prevent her father from being caught.

("Hello, Dexter Morgan")Frank Lundy - Initially thought to be a victim of the Vacation Murderers, and then by Trinity. Later, it was confirmed that he and Debra were shot by someone shorterthan Trinity.Sally Mitchell - Bludgeoned by Jonah Mitchell, but Debra believed that Trinity killed her.Stan Beaudry - For a time, he was a Trinity suspect. Later on, because Dexter had planted Arthur's DNA in Stan's homeand truck, the police may have blamed Arthur for Stan's disappearance.This page is meant to bring as many characters pages together to see who has the most confirmed kills in the Showtime series DEXTER.

- The Skinner (3 Confirmed Kills) The Skinner is the only serial killer on this list who is not a major character at any point within the series. He’s the main serial killer active during season three, but ADA Miguel Prado is the season’s actual antagonist, with the Skinner ultimately just wrapping up Miguel’s loose threads come the finale.
- The Poisoner (7 Confirmed Kills) Hannah McKay is never referred to as The Poisoner in-universe, but title consistency matters, and it’s also just worth noting her method of serial killing.
- The Doomsday Killer (11 Confirmed Kills) Originally believed to be a former Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Tallahassee, Professor James Gellar, the Doomsday Killer turns out to be none other than Travis Marshall, a young man Dexter tried to squeeze the Dark Passenger out of.
- Barrel Girl Gang (13 Confirmed Kills) Responsible for the rape and murder of 13 confirmed women, the Barrel Girl Gang were comprised of Boyd Fowler, Dan Mendell, Cole Harmon, Alex Tilden, and motivational speaker Jordan Chase.
Kill Discrepancy - In "My Bad" Dexter states that he has killed 67 people who "deserved to die," with Arthur Mitchell being the 67th. However, by this point, Dexter is known to have killed at least 96 people, with only five not being murderers.
Yeah and at that point in Season 5 he’d killed more than 67 people so it’s a blatant plot hole. Arthur would likely have around 400 I assume. Each spree takes 4 kills, and judging by how quickly his cycle restarted in s4, I'd say he easily goes with atleast 4 cycles in a year (16 kills per year).
He has killed dozens of people over 30 years, while “hiding in plain sight” as an apparently devoted family man, church deacon and pillar of his community who runs a business building houses for the homeless. However, behind closed doors, Arthur is abusive towards his wife, daughter, and son.
