Dead Boy Detectives - The Case of the Lighthouse Leapers

For their latest case, the detectives investigate a number of people who willingly are jumping to their deaths into the sea from the local lighthouse. Playing on the ideas of a siren’s call, albeit one with a more unusual creature revealed a the end, offers an unusual setup that is quite effective, especially after Crystal (Kassius Nelson)  becomes attracted to the call. The town’s reluctance to acknowledge the supernatural, including the local police, as illustrated in no one believing the eye witness of multiple people seeing a suicide helps explain how so much wacky stuff can go down without anyone giving it any mind.

Will Trent - Residente o Visitante

While a good chunk of the first-half of the episode features Will (Ramón Rodríguez) in Puerto Rico with Antonio (John Ortiz), his part in an investigation doesn’t begin until he’s back home and discovers one of the friends he met on the island has been killed in Atlanta. The episode works to play on Antonio’s distrust of the police, particularly the FBI whose past with Puerto Rico is far from stellar, as well as give a chance for Will, Antonio, and the recovering Angie (Erika Christensen) to all work together to solve a crime the current FBI agent in charge (Christy St. John) seems all too willing to sweep under the rug.

Dead Boy Detectives - The Case of the Devlin House

After getting multiple offers from the town’s ghost population, Edwin (George Rexstrew), Charles (Jayden Revri), and Crystal (Kassius Nelson) decide to investigate a haunted house where a family (Hannah Bos, Christine Chatelain, Jason Deline, and Audrey Mallett) has been stuck in the loop of their murders since the 80s. The loop, and the struggle to find its trigger, offers an intriguing mystery and a nice mix of macabre humor and horror for the investigators (especially after Charles’ recklessness gets him trapped in the loop as well).
