| abstract | - The Doomsday Tableaus are picturesque sacrifices (or rather, "crime scenes") shown in the Sixth Season of DEXTER. According to Detective Mike Anderson, they are "picturesque groups of people or objects" which Dexter Morgan translates as everything from the positioning of body parts to the clothes has a particular meaning, a specific message. The Doomsday Tableaus in particular are meant to display signs from the Book of Revelation in bringing the End of Days. The man responsible for these Tableaus is Travis Marshall, a psychologically disturbed man with violent tendencies who found religion as his excuse for satisfying the urge to kill. His belief in Revelation is so vast that he views himself as one of the Two Witnesses and stabs the second "witness" Professor James Gellar with the belief that he is invincible. Travis shuts out this memory and begins seeing an illusion of Professor Gellar. "Together", they begin developing unique ways about providing each sign in search of bringing the end of the world.
