Set in the Deep South in 1966, in the hauntingly beautiful city of Savannah, Georgia, Boys of Bonaventure captures the magic of boyhood friendship, youthful innocence, and the thrill of breaking free. This heartwarming true story follows Danny, an eleven-year-old boy longing for adventure yet bound by his devout religion and his strict father’s unyielding rules. Inspired by his fifth-grade teacher’s readings of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, he dreams of escaping his normal life. With daring spirit and boundless imagination, Danny and his closest friends forge their own secret brotherhood and embark on midnight escapades into Bonaventure Cemetery—the most haunted graveyard in America. As they explore this enchanting City of the Dead, tales of mystery and mischief come alive beneath the midnight moon. A timeless story where adventure, friendship, and childhood dreams take flight.

. . . the midnight hour has finally come. As we stare into the eerie darkness of this place - a cold shiver races down my spine. I’m unsure if it’s from the frosty chill of the November night - or from the fear that something could go terribly wrong once inside the gates. It’s the same feeling we experienced as young 11-year-old boys when we entered the old graveyard on our very first midnight adventure. Now - just as then - that spine-tingling chill - chills me to the bone.
