    Synopsis

    Nobody Owens, known as Bod, is like any normal boy his age, except that he’s been raised by a graveyard full of ghosts. When he was just a baby, the man Jack was sent to murder him and his family, but Bod solely escaped. Largely taken care of by a guardian who exists neither within the living or the dead, Bod has to navigate a mysterious and different world than most people, and as a result, growing up can be difficult at times. As he hits his teenage years, he must decide what to do once the man Jack knows his whereabouts again.
