WATCH: ‘The Dead Boy Detectives’ Is Potentially Queer In This Thrilling Trailer

Netflix’s official synopsis of the series reads, “Meet Edwin Payne and Charles Rowland, ‘the brains’ and ‘the brawn’ behind the Dead Boy Detectives agency. Teenagers born decades apart who find each other only in death, Edwin and Charles are best friends and ghosts… who solve mysteries. They will do anything to stick together – including escaping evil witches, Hell and Death herself. With the help of a clairvoyant named Crystal (Kassius Nelson) and her friend Niko (Yuyu Kitamura), they are able to crack some of the mortal realm’s most mystifying paranormal cases.”

‘The Dead Boy Detectives’ appear in ‘Doom Patrol’ and in that version, Edwin is implied to have unrequited love for Charles, so if Netflix follows through, we might have another gay lovers in our hands! The gays win once again!

Additional cast members include Briana Cuoco as Jenny the Butcher, Ruth Connell as the Night Nurse, Jenn Lyon as Esther, Michael Beach as Tragic Mick, Joshua Colley as Monty, Lindsey Gort as Maxine, Caitlin Reilly as Lily, Max Jenkins as Kingham and David Iacono as David the Demon. Kirby Howell-Baptiste is also set to reprise her role from The Sandman as Death.

‘The Dead Boy Detectives’ premieres on April 25 on Netflix.
