With Showtime's Dexter just around the corner, a brand new behind-the-scenes-video clip of its eighth season has now officially been released.

The upcoming installment kicks off roughly six months after Captain LaGuerta's (Lauren Velez) death, and the latest video footage gives loyalists an inside look into Season 8.

Although Dex (Michael C. Hall) shows no guilt over what's transpired, Deb (Jennifer Carpenter) takes it pretty bad, as she was the one who shot LaGuerta.

Primetime reported that Deb will resort to boozing, drugs and sex in order to cope with her pain.

In a voiceover, Dexter narrates the following message regarding his urges to kill again:

"Tonight's the night, and it's going to happen again, and again. It has to happen."

Hall spoke to the site about his initial take on the Dexter character and what his feelings were toward it.

"I decided it was a character unlike any I'd ever seen and I jumped at it.  The final season is about a sense of legacy.  It'll blow your mind," he explained.

"The season picks up about six months later.  We find Dexter on the one hand telling himself that things are good, but there are a lot of problems," Hall adds.

Showtime's Dexter is set to make its return on Sunday, June 30 at 9/8 p.m. Central.  Be sure to keep checking back for more of the latest details on America's favorite serial killer.
