These two boys are cheating Death — Supernatural’s Ruth Connell as the demon Night Nurse.
BC-filmed supernatural series Dead Boy Detectives, starring George Rexstrew, Jayden Revri and Kassius Nelson, drops April 25th on Netflix.
Edwin and Charles are best friends, ghosts… and the best detectives on the Mortal plane. They will do anything to stick together – including escaping evil witches, Hell and Death herself. With the help of a clairvoyant named Crystal and her friend Niko, they are able to crack some of the mortal realm’s most mystifying paranormal cases.
Dead Boy Detectives is based on the beloved comic series from Neil Gaiman, and a new addition to The Sandman Universe for Netflix.
Netflix picked up the series in February 2023 near the end of production in Vancouver because it fit with its Sandman Universe but no longer fit with Max’s DCU under new bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran.
