🕵️ WELCOME TO THE DEAD BOY DETECTIVE AGENCY 🕵️

Today, Netflix debuted the official main trailer for DEAD BOY DETECTIVES, premiering globally on Netflix on Thursday, April 25th.

The eclectic composition of characters, based on the beloved comics by Neil Gaiman and brought to life by Co-Showrunners Steve Yockey (The Flight Attendant, Supernatural) and Beth Schwartz (Sweet Tooth, Arrow), provide the series with fun, whimsy, humor, and fantastical horror that all come together in perfectly imperfect harmony.

Try not to fall in love with our dead boy detectives and their crew in this trailer as they solve mystifying paranormal cases to the tune of a wonderfully nostalgic rendition of My Chemical Romance's anthemic ode to the afterlife, "Welcome to the Black Parade."
