Dexter crew members blacked out the front of the Bull Run in Shirley to film a night scene in the tavern.

A Christmas scene was filmed in the taproom of the historic Bull Run restaurant in Shirley. The Dexter crew took down energy efficient LED lighting to put up incandescent lights, which look better on film.
'Bull run' said that they're “not allowed to say by contract” what was filmed there specifically. The crew came in and set up the rooms, which took about a week, followed by five days of filming (May 21 through May 28).

“It was a total transformation, they removed everything from our light fixtures and chandeliers to everything hanging on the walls and moved most of the tables and furniture out. They transformed our upstairs dining rooms back into small bedrooms.”
