WELCOME TO THE DEAD BOY DETECTIVE AGENCY
Edwin (played by George Rexstrew) and Charles (portrayed by Jayden Revri) are not your typical detectives. They’re teenagers from different eras, united by their ghostly existence and a knack for solving supernatural conundrums. With the help of Crystal, a gifted clairvoyant, and her friend Niko, they dive into the mystical and murky waters of the afterlife’s unsolved mysteries.
Expect to be charmed by their camaraderie, cheeky banter, and unyielding courage as they face witches, demons, and even Death herself. The show weaves a tapestry of friendship, adventure, and the occasional spooky encounter, creating a world that is as endearing as it is otherworldly.
A TRAILER NOT TO BE MISSED
Today, Netflix unveiled the much-anticipated main trailer for Dead Boy Detectives, setting the stage for a series brimming with charm and chills.
