Dead Boy Detectives Sneak Preview Intros Lukas Gage's Cat King (VIDEO)

Check out a new sneak preview of Steve Yockey's & Beth Schwartz's live-action adaptation of Neil Gaiman & Matt Wagner's Dead Boy Detectives.

On April 25th, Steve Yockey's (The Flight Attendant) & Beth Schwartz's ("Arrowverse") live-action adaptation of Neil Gaiman & Matt Wagner's Dead Boy Detectives will be open for business – and we have a new sneak preview (and poster) to pass along to give you a better sense of what the eight-episode "Sandman Universe" series is all about. Edwin Payne (George Rexstrew) and Charles Rowland (Jayden Revri) are two teenagers who find each other in death – and who will do anything to stick together. Of course, that means outrunning evil witches, Hell… and yes, even Death herself. Joined by clairvoyant Crystal (Kassius Nelson), the trio must work together to crack some of our realm's most mystifying paranormal cases – before, you know, things get really, really ugly.

With the series set to hit streaming screens on April 25th, here's a look at an official clip from Netflix's Dead Boy Detectives – followed by a rundown of what else we know about the series and a new key art poster:

Based on characters created for DC by Gaiman and Wagner, the series stars George Rexstrew, Jayden Revri, Kassius Nelson, Jenn Lyon, Briana Cuoco, Yuyu Kitamura, Ruth Connell, Lukas Gage, and David Iacono. Now, here's a look back at the first official teaser for Netflix's Dead Boy Detectives – set to hit screens on April 25th:

Do you have a pesky ghost haunting you? Has a demon stolen your core memories? You may want to ring the Dead Boy Detectives. Meet Edwin Payne (George Rexstrew) and Charles Rowland (Jayden Revri), "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.
