The Big Picture After teasing us with some brief footage from Dead Boy Detectives in November, Netflix finally decided to unveil a full trailer for the series' debut season. The show will follow Edwin Payne and Charles Rowland , two teenage ghosts that band together to solve mysteries of the supernatural world. The series is scheduled to premiere on April 25.

The trailer for Dead Boy Detectives provides a real sense of what we can expect to see throughout the eight episodes. Dark humor, action and intriguing cases were already part of the speculation, but now we have some footage to support it. The trailer reveals that even though the show will definitely have a dark tone — it is about dead people after all — Edwin and Charles will be a fun duo, especially when they are joined by fellow investigators Crystal and Niko .

Along with the trailer, Netflix also unveiled some first-look images that further showcase the type of series we're signing on to watch. They reveal some key moments, such as Crystal's clairvoyant abilities in action, all the cast's incredibly charming costumes, some neon lights in vibrant locations and the main cast's visit to atmospheric places like foggy woods and cemeteries.

'Dead Boy Detectives' Seems To Have Horror Tropes Down Close Last but not least, the trailer for Dead Boy Detectives also reveals that Season 1 won't be too early to try new formats, with one episode — or a segment of it — being entirely in black and white and with some different and incredibly realistic effects.

One of the reasons that make Dead Boy Detectives a must-watch is that the creative team is formed by a pretty eclectic duo. Steve Yockey brings his demons and spirits' knowledge from his tenure at long-running The CW series Supernatural, as well as thriller and investigative elements from The Flight Attendant. Beth Schwartz has the action sequences down due to her experience in Arrow, and she exercised her fantasy storytelling abilities in Sweet Tooth.
